, The following letter brings another
problem OF the girl who works seldom
expressed by women, yet one which
every business woman has TO face:
My Dear Mrs. Gibson:
| have been reading with interest
what you say to girls who work. My
trouble is a little different from any
thing that the other girls seem TO have
written about Most of their letters
speak OF Jealousy OF one of their own
sex, but what can woman do when
the men In her Office are jealous OF
her?
have very good position. | am
private secretary 10 the head of the
firm which employs a number OF men
In different capacities. Naturally
have more money in my pay envelope
than they, and do not believe there
Is one OF them, from the bookkeeper
TO the Office boy. who does not thlnK
that he could do my work better thah
|. althugh have worked harder thah
any one of them for X years TO OBTAIN
my present position.
Talk about the chivalry OF men,
No man Is chivalrous 10 a business
woman who is filing mans position
II seems to me that every man In
The world thinks that the earning ca
pacity OF any woman is $25 per week.
IL you get over that look out Tor
squalls
| have TO fight daily the innuendos
and knocks OF every man who can get
20 the boss. and can say nothing In
my own defense because, II did.
every one would say, 1T Is only
woman's fussy feelings"
Isn't there some way, Mrs. Gibson.
that a business woman can be treated
just as a man is; that she can draw
the same pay for the same amount or
work and that her fellow-workers OF
the other sex will treat her fairly?
A SUCCESSFUL
BUSINESS WOMAN
From time immemorial. my dear.
men have been perfectly willing TO
give to women everything-that they
do not want themselves. But II you
happen TO want something that they
think will be advantageous for them
to possess-hiff,-b are no
longer woman lonely woman. but
raging tiger seeking whom you may
destroy Even Kipling, you know.
says that "the female OF the species
is more deadly than the male"
am afraid that not in your time or
In my time will women who work be
treated fairly BY either their employ
ers or the ones who work with them
You must be glad that you are able
to put II over" and. while | know II
is necessary for You 10 work much
harder 10 "hold down your job than
II would be for a man, be glad you
have the brain. nerve and energy TO,
do It.

TRAIL AND BRIDGE LONG NEEDED

Again an appeal comes from the Nzina country the
building of trail around Sourough HILL leading from
reacherous stream During the past ten extensive
mining operations have been what is known the
Nzna mining section Hundreds of thousands of dollars have
been expended prospecting and developing the country But
all cries for assistance from the Aasna Road Commission have
been without beneficial although the necessities have
been impressed upon the members of the commission
For svera years the promise forthcoming that
bridge would be built And this promise finally
fulfilled two three years ago Over $4,000 expended
in placing fine bridge the Nzna river But alas
the structure away had not been placed at the proper
place. In the meantime more men, horses and more
supplies have been carried destruction by the shifting and
rapid waters that flow quicksand bottom And at times
the muck of Sourdough hill has been deep that it has been
almost physical impossbily for beast to make
progress through it.
And beyond there great stretch of mining country
with valuable deposits OF placer god gold quartz and rich
copper And prospecors have been and still anxious
penetrate the regions of the Csana the White river the
Birthstone Dan Creek Young Creek Chtu Creek Boulder
Creek May Creek and other streams where be found
valuable mineral The present facilities for reaching these
sections dangerous and costly.
1t much to Cordova to Chtna to Mccarthy and to
OPERATOR prospecor aborer who occupied that
great and rich country beyond that accessible and
safer of traffic provided The benefits from the labor
performed that country dused and divided among the
towns named If for other than selfish the
cial organizations of the towns named should unite in
campaign of action that would certainly bring material and
beneficial results.
In matters of this kind the Cordova Chamber of Commerce
likes to think that it takes the initiative Here is
tunty simply pass resolution but their shoulder
the wheel and try to induce the Road Commission the
Territorial road for this division to expend
where badly needed and would be the Of
aforipg relief to large number of men, And Chtna and
Mccarthy would undoubtedly cooperate and lend valuable all
the endeavor to at least better trail for this
and the building of bridge next winter.

A CRITICAL SITUATION

The reply received from Germany today is evasve and
unsatisfactory There is apology for the act and
ntmation that their submarine policy to be changed AS
result the people throughout the United States bitterly
disappointed From many quarters the demand that
the President take summary action. But most people will
hold their opinions in
And at this critical hour in America there but duty
and attitude for all Americans to stand by the President
and neither by word deed ebarass him. The obligations
of neutrality strong before UNNECESSARILY intensified at
this moment. This is time for lingo hyseria for
angng controversy 1t is time for sober thought not for
wild words The President has spoken for He has
seemingly said all that needed be said in the should
be said.
Possibly at no time since the European commenced
hos the feeling been throughout the United
1t today And there is likely general feeling of
at the attitude of Germany in its parey to the note of the
President What may follow remains unanswered
question that time alone will tell.
1t was essential part of the duty Americans owe to
humanity of which the President has spoken that
our government should it's horror and desestaon
the massacre on the Lusitania.
That the European begerents have thrown international
law and the rights of mankind into the scrap heap
has not destroyed and could not destroy the principles
international right and justice and the sancy of human life
That we should demand reparation inevitable and
Incidental But there things for which money can not
atone and which necessity Justify In world leapno
nsaney from of desperation another the
imperative duty of right thinking to halt This the
President did in unmistakable terms.
The answer coming today from Germany may require
another expression and if it will undoubtedly be forth
coming In the meantime the President wrapped in sober
Thought AS he voiced the sentiment of the American people
IN his original note it is fair that in the present
emergency ne will again act wisely In this critical hour let
all Alaskans take him exempar in patience and
patriotism, self-poised and clearheaded, as becomes
Americans.

PERKINS NEW PARTY

It is interesting learn that Mr. George W. Perkins
continues in his apparent determination to rescue this nation
from its peril by aboshing the antitrust act 10 accomplish
his purpose he must organize new pohhcal party Inc
Republican party passed the Sherman law and the
rary enforcing and suppementng it Even the Progressive
party did not demand its repeal and President Roosevelt
with some exceptions favor Of his good trusts was the
first President to successfully enforce against Others Ii
the Sherman law represents great national SIN against
busness Mr. Perkins claims then he cannot start his new
,orv dav too soon There doubt that such party
would be abundanty supplied with campaign funds The
trusts though they claim to be oppressed and
would rally support with contributions that would make
Mark Hanna DAYS seem infane But it would be short on
votes The people of the country have their minds made up
on this point If wants peace should conduct Its
operatons in accordance with the letter and the spirit OF the
law And the same idea should prevail in the smaller affairs OF
life and in the large cities and small towns The special priv

SEWARD NEEDS THE HELP

Anxiety continues at Seward the probability or
possibility of the government starting in this summer 70
rebuild the Alaska Northern railroad from dewater to Mile
70 the end of present construction Men engaged IN mining
DEVELOPMENT back of Seward particularly anxious that
start be soon made And this subject the Gateway says
Let it be repeated that it is devoutly wished the
engineering commission will start work on the Alaska
Northern this summer This would not be desired so
much for the temporary blessing of passing payroll

around Anchorage receive their annual ice flows the

convenient, and not only for the people but for the

way and if the United States and its government only

tory to Kenai peninsula opened up they would

A CHANGED OPINION

Carter Harrison of Chicago in the ''ex class and he
sgnalized his retirement from the mayoralty by notable
change of position the segregation of vice. He formerly
favored that policy but in his farewell message the Chicago
people, he dscards it altogether He makes the confession
not alone that egegaton does segregate but that the
breaking up of the segregated districts in Chicago has
spread the evil into the residence districts Therefore, Ha
favors the policy of repression He proposes combat
the evil every quarter of the city, and striving TO rob
it's false glitter and lusre show it in its hdeou mien
depressed by the stees of police existing only by
dnt of secrecy and STEALTH forbidden by the laws of God and
man.. For official who has been long committed to the
segregation plan and widely credited with being
supporter of the wde open town. this change of opinion
sgicant Whether it is due to the fact that Harrison
longer needs the political support of the vicious classes makes
difference in it's significance
