Whenever stores of munitions blow up the public,
naturally is inclined to attribute the occurrence to SYM
pathzers of the enemy of the of such munitions
but it should always be remembered that ammunition is
not the least combuStbe stuff known to science 1t is the
business of ammunition to 90 off with explosion and it,
is manufactured with an eye making it explode with
the least possible difficulty. Great ammunition factories
have been established hurredy all over this country since
the great war began and the wonder would be if
posions took place Many of the employees of such fact
cries must be amateurs and like powder monkeys on
railroads they doubt very often cause those explosives
to give premature birth their death dealing properties
if such bull may be allowed The arrest OF the men IN
charge of the plant Black Tom Island suggests to the
mind suspicion of the authorities that the company Of
fciaS were not very careful in guarding their munitions

Seward, Alaska, Tuesday, August l, 1916.

1t has often been said in this column that Alaska may
be made the scene of many experiments in government
ownership and government operation of public utilities
now that the ice is broken with the government railroad
and sure enough now comes the operation of govern
ment passenger service the with the SangS OF
the transport Crooks Alaska ports from Seattle 1t
really looks more likely than that the government has
decided to try this government ownership on general
scale in this district All this part of Alaska has become
huge government reserve or preserve" To carry out
the scheme it was necessary to have port city which
would be completely and directly under the sway Of the
Washington officials whether this city and port were the
more perfect not Does this throw any light on prob
lem which has vexed the people of this city so long
problem which might be presented by question as to
whether the government has not chosen one particular
city along the line of route the city to be advanced at
the expense of others?

through the hand and the blind not
only winds up to the top. but continues
until the spring has spent its force and
the blind and cord are rolled up ont of
reach. 1t Is then necessary to use a
chair or stepladder to readjust it. All
this trouble and annoyance can be
avoided ii small hollow rubber ball
Is obtained and holes punched through
so 1t may be threaded on the curtain
