WANT ALL TO HELP
 THE CIVIC FAIR
This Years Attempt is an Experiment
 For Future Times.

The ladies who have taken on them selves the severe task of instituting the Civic Fair here wish it to be fully understood that they consider the prizes offered by no means one of the chief considerations. They consider, indeed, that the prizes are rather small but the Fair this year is rather an experiment and the patronesses wish to make sure that indebtedness will not be incurred. Next year and the year after that and for many years to come, maybe for all years, the Far will be carried out on a more elaborate scale and the prizes will be richer. They ask the aid of everyone in the city to make this Fair a sue cess and they are asking only what all should more than willingly give. The ladies are doing this for Seward.
 By the way, Mrs. Hills hours to give out the tags will be from to 1, not 2 to 2 o'clock as was stated.

COMES TO FIND
 A RADIO SITE
INDICATIONS ARE THAT SEW ARD WILL HAVE A RADIO
 STATION THIS YEAR.

Lieutenant C. H. Maddox assistant superintendent of the United States naval communication service, arrived on the Evans last evening to make in- vestigations with a view to choosing a site for the erection of a radio -.a,ou.
 .cadquarters are at san Fran cisco but he came to Cordova last month on business connected with the service. While at Cordoya he receiv- ed orders to come to Seward to make the examination and he expresses the belief that the very fact that the orders were rush orders indicates that the intention of the department is to erect the radio station hera at once. NIr. Maddox will first examine the ground at the head of bay and he has reason to believe that Lieutenant OBrien who came on the Saturn had already located that place for a site. No experiments will be necessary and Mir. Maddox says he can make the selection of the bes. place merely by taking into account the hills and gen eral topography. After the examina- ton he will make his recommendations

ONLY 30 DAYS GRUB
 ON PACIEIC COAST
Grocery Travelling Man Says Alaska
 Will Feel Strike Severely.

The Pacific coast has only thirty days supplies, according to Gus Giles the well known grocery and cigar man who represents a large Seattle house, and he believes that if the great rail road strike comes conditions on the coast and Alaska will become very bad. He believes that supplies will be so short that even travelling men will have to be laid off. Even the crops of eastern Washington cannot be moved west and the fruit crop is in- cluded, only one road leading over the mountains and that a miserable one. The goods shipped ordinarily from the Pacific coast cities down be- low to Alaska cannot be secured by Alaska in the event of the strike as they will be required right there. This will make all eastern canned goods and various other sorts impos- sible to get up here. Mir. Giles be- lieves that the strike would probably mean the laying off as great a number of travelling men as railroad men so great will the effect be on business throughout the country.

TWO SETS OF KIDS
DISRUPT This FAMILY

The old. old story OF your chill

turn in City Court this morning in
the case of William II. Butler, ar
raigned on a charge of breach of the
peace. The charges were brought
against Butler by his wife. Eva But
Ter, who testified her husband did not
get along well with her children. In
the argument which ensued, when
the prisoner was given an oppor-
tunity to question the witness. it an
peared that Mr.. Butler did not like
the way some of Mrs Buffers chill
dren behaved themselves and Mrs.
Butler resented any attempt TO direct
them.

rels,' Judge Churchman, said. dYou
must, however, adjust you differences as
far as possible out of court for we here
can deal only with affairs which concern
the public Advising both parties to
try to get along together, the Judge
then dismissed the case
