HALO MAKES STATEMENT

Now that the incident is closed, John Haho. owner of Che launch Pheasant on which a large amount of liquor was found by officials Tuesday evening. feels that a state ment is due from him, hc having been the goat. According Co Mr.
 Haho. no particular destiny was mentioned when he was engaged to make a trip in his launch and he had no idea that it was for Che pur- pose Of carrying any liquor He acc cepted an offer at SO much per day Go take his launch out and while he was at homo preparatory to starting out on the trip, thc liquor was put on board and slowed away and evcn when he returned Co the launch he did not notice its pres ence and his first information con- corning its presence was given him by the officers. In view of thc fact that the owner of the liquor, Seth Orava, acted the man and paid Ilo- hos fine. there is no doubt but that the latter was innocent of any iu- tentiou to violate the law.

Seward and Anchorage Publications Abuse and vilhfy Each

That idleuess Is Satan's first mate is being verified by the newspaper men Of Seward and Anchorage. In the glad and winsomo summer time those are rather lively camps-not Iukc Douglas. of course-but there is enough doing Co keep Che papers from Quarreling. In winter, how ever. it Is different and time hangs heavily around the ink cmporiums. Thcn it ls that spleen and bile gem crates and this Is how it is worked on:
 "It would not look well in print Co publish some of the expressions nayigators have of Cook Inlet and Che alleged harbor ot Anchorage. sunicc it Co say that the nayigators have thc same conclusion as the ma Iorlty Of people, that a harbor at Anchorage. open the year round, can never be a possibility without the spending of hundreds of thousands of dollars. money thrown away"
 The above is a clipping from the Seward Gateway, and it winds up ia knock with money thrown away"
 And yet the people of Seward would consider that had the A. D. C.. done Che most of their construction from the Seward end. Che money paid out iu excess to the amount that has been used by making An- choragc Che base of operations would have been money we'll ex- pended.
 If there is one hopclcssly useless cxpansc or country on the govern mcut project it is the first 70 miles out Of Seward; a section that has not as yet shown a single self-sus- taiuiug business or enterprise, and yet because a few old-timers had ac- Quired title Co a lot of vacant town property. and useless hillsides, and glacier stream beds. they are pceyed because a commercial center Of more importance springs up to acquire business that in no wise ever be- lougcd. or can belong, Co Seward.
 If that little stopping place will keep quiet until such time as the railway is completed that will bridge the gap that now separates its knock CTS from a real good time, the peo- pie going and coming from Anchor ago win necessarily spend some money there and help them to get that grouch on their chests, but if they continue their knocking pro- rrammc. Che people Of Anchorage win rctaliatc by steering an tho travel around by Seldovia and in such event Seward will be compelled Co sell out Co some crab or clam canning company. So it behooves the little town on Resurrection Bay Co keep quiet or wen send the dog team the other way.-Auchorage Democrat
