 Anchorage is securing a large bulk of the Seldovia, Port Chatham and Kachemak Bay trade because the SCOT es of little gas boats consider the trip on the Inlet safer than coming to Sew ard, when several hours is spent on the open sea-" continued Mr. Fraser" l found that the prices asked by the Anchorage merchants are about the same as those asked in Seward but the mosquito fleet is doing a largebusiness with the merchants of the Cook Inlet metropolis.

WILL WELLS.
Shall They Pay This Price?

A strike in the shipyards at Grays
Harbor has been settled by compro.
arise, and the nan have returned t.
ir work. Difficulties are smoothef
away. But meantime, twenty-five me-
were idle.
When one man lays off one day il
TIE shipyards it means that for ar
hour and seventeen minutes an Ameri-
can soldier will have to face the ma
chine gun fire Of the Hun without am
munition TO defend himself. And
when one man lays off in the ship
yards one day it means that three Am
crican soldiers will be injured in
France and one viii give his life.
The soldiers who pay That fearful
price are Americans, and workers
themselves. They have left jobs in
country where labor is better paid
than it has ever boon paid, where the
rights of labor are recognized as never
before in the history of the world, 70
fight FRAT such a land may exist in
Freedom.
Is it right that they must pay this
price? Is it just that they must be
sacrificed for something that can be,
and has been, settled by compromise :?
