 Now, # he l. the right sost of red klooded individual he will not care ! tink>rs stove who AGr. Fourth Man ssid by way of . knock and he will care even less than that for the two men who were Quitters because they thought that the influential and pow erful Fourth Man did not believe in the idea as it vast put to him. Mr. Number One Booster will get .xht down to business and start something himself and he will dig up other boosters who have more nerve than the first two partners he had end eventually he will put over what ever t was that he started.
 When it is put over. or is about so be put over. successfully. 1t is . ten 70 cns shot that Mr. Fourth Man will be ris hs around with . large bunch of erthusiasm and viii hustle his head otf to be in on . winning game. And he is just the sort of . man to set in too, after all of the hard work is done.
 Then the other two men. the quit ters, will be left out In the cold and they will wonder how they got there.
 They got there simply becauss after Number One had aroused their en- thusiasm they did not have sand enough to hold onto 1t when someone ..se failed to jump up and down ana shout at the idea. They were the Kind who get enthusiastic easily and as ensiiy drop their enthusiasm.
 A good many things have been started here this winter and carried through successfully because there were enough of the Number One kind cf men and women to do the work. The things that have been done are history.
 There are other things stili to De done, and 1t is the Number One kind of people who are going to do them.
 The miners of the Seward peninsula und the business men of the Seward ,.eninsula are going to meet at the city hall on Saturday to discuss some acuion looking towards getting Una government to extend the railroad into tne heart of the Kouearok. Some of inc men at this meeting will be Num- her One men and some will not. but the meeting is a good idea
 There h going to be a vaudeville performance for the benefit Of the F ennei Club and there is going to be fl stampede for the same worthy oo- . ct. which is the All-Alaska Sweep stakes. These things are being man. us.d aud nus. sd along by the ener- getic Number One men. and women. with the proper amount of enthus- ia,m to go through with them and 10 go through successfully. and they should have all of the help and en- cc arrangement that can be given them.
 There is q movement on foot to get ,be first mail sent in on the Corwin. This will give Us our outside letters !, bit sooner and may be a great bene- ft tp many people. The Number One men are the sort that are going 70 make an effort to have the postofiice department put the mail on the Cor win when she sails for Nome. The Number Two and Number Three men vould like to have the mail. but they have not the neceassry stamina t." hustle a little to get 1t. It Is up t' everybody to insist that we get our outside mall by the quickest and most reliable conveyance.
 This is no time for the MT. Number Two boosters or MT. Number Three booster who lose their enthusiasm at the first setback. What all of these things need and what they probably have is goodly stock of Number C.nes who will go through with the game.
 And when the hustlers have done t..e work and taken tho trouble and the knocks Mr. Fourth Man. who was deep, will be right alongside of them up In the limelight and the auitters will be just where they belong, out in
