Alaskan progress of the past forecasts the future greatness of
the Northland, and justifies all Alaskans in holding to their firm
faith in the Territory’s possibilities and worth. By aiming high and
working together—actively and steadily—those having to do with Al
askan progress can accomplish much. “Looking Ahead” to still great
er things, and planning and working accordingly, is the one way that
a high purpose can be realized.
The Alaska Railroad—a pioneer system—is gradually and pain
stakingly striding towards a great goal—the greater development of
Alaska; and that the future is bright and promising is attested by
the steady and consistent upward trend of past and present activi
ties. The Alaska Railroad is “Looking Ahead.”

WOMEN MURDERERS GENERAL.
LY ACQUITTED WHEN USE
PISTOL; NOT SO POISON
' PARIS—French jurors, who nine
times out of ten acquit women mur
derers when the revolver is used as
a weapon, have recently shov/n ex
treme severity when poison has been
administered.
Within a month two woman have
| been sentenced to the guillotine in
France, hitherto an uuheard of oc
| currence. Both had poisoned their
victims.
Lenient jurors, usually inclined to
overlook the results of nervous fingers
upon the trigger, were merciless.
They discarded the “passionate” ele
ment, which has saved so many mur
derers from the knife, and voted
guilty “with premeditation.” The
court had no other way open than to
pronounce sentence of death.
Antoinette Scierri, a nurse who
■ poisoned five of her patients for the
. excitement she received out of watch
ing them die, and Melonie Beccard,
of Douai, who administered poison
in small doses to her husband in or
der that she might marry her para
mur, are in the death house.
It is extremely unlikely that either
will go to the guillotine, however, as
President Doumergue is virtually cer
tain to commute the sentences to life
terms.

From The Gateway Files of
Long Ago
It is claimed by those who are in
a position to know, that the Alaska
Pacific Navigation company and the
Northwestern Comercial company are
likely to consolidate as far as the
• Seward trade is concerned. The
, two companies are taking stock, and
it is said that the N. W. C. Co. will
add one of their ships to the A. P. N.
Co’s, fleet at least.
If there is anything with the ap
pearance of being A1 in a mining way,
the local representatives of the Dam
it to lie around loose for any length
of time. They have already secured
two locations in the Rudolph-Birchey
Simcjns camp, eight miles east of
Sew'ard.
The crew of the Dora brought an
account of a drowning at Wood Is
land, near Kodiak, on the 19th in
stant.
Pavaloff, a well known Alaska
steamer pilot, a Mrs. Bowen and her
daughter Susie Bowen, were out on
the ice near Wood Island when they
broke thru. Mr. Pavloff and Miss
Bo-wen were drowned. Mrs. Bowen
was rescued, but when the Dora
sailed on the 20th, there was some
doubts as to her recovery.
