THE BLOCKADE OF ALASKA.

 The steamship Victoria, which sailed for Nome had only half the steamship Alameda sailing for CordOva and southwestern ports had only fifty tons and the City of Seattle bound for southeastern Alaska ports sailed without freight
 question how long will be possible for the people of Alaska live without the importation of food supplies None the merchants the coast carry particularly large stocks and especially in Juneau Skagway, Ketchikan and Dougas where the merchants served with steamship there has been good for carrying large stocks.
 When the strike first called the steamship companies warned the people of Alaska their supplies 1t IS impossible to tell how long the strike may last
 there danger of the people of Alaska real y suffering account of inability to get supplies On the other hand either side might the necessities of the Askans club force its opponents into giving concessions
 It is plain that the steamship companies will not let the people Alaska suffer for the sake of saving the few dollars in wages demanded by the it likewise certain that the ongshoremen gladly would handle the freight to Alas a for nothng rather than shortage of food up here The only question i whose duty is it to surrender first
 There probably will be shortages of necessities for at least mon but in the meantime if the strike shows signs letting up is just well for the people of Alaska to pat tern the German people and conserve particle Of food for future necessities.
