The Seward gateway daily edition, and the Alaska weekly post., 1920-11-05

One of the Doughnut Brigade this morning was bemoaning the fact that he would have to keep the bright new green tie that Jerry Murphy gave him, in tissue paper until St. Patrick's Day. He had fully expected to wear the Elm ersld creation the day after election to celebrate the success of Jovial Jer- ny, but the day after election showed that there would be no celebration. Cheer up old timer, you wore green ties long before you Ter heard of Jerry Murphy and you will continue to wear 'em when Jerry Murphy has been forgotten. Green is symbol of Spring, when everything is bright and fresh and the new conditions which will prevail throughout the territory from now on will enable you to wear your tie whenever you wish cause it will blend perfectly with all the fresh new progressive things, destined to occur in the near future of the Ter ritory.

The clerks 'and judges who faith fully performed the service of check ing and counting ballots on election day are wondering just when they wilt receive remuneration for their seIv- ices. The reason they are wondering is because the pay voucher which was sent from Valdez that it was necessary for all of them to sign was used for a scratch pad during the day. It was the one and only voucher. They will now have to wait untA another is sent. We are wondering whether it was a Democrat or Republican who got ex- citct, and just why he choose the pay voucher to figure up the possible re- suit.
 It is hard to determine whether We are in the early laps of a new war or in relapse of tie old won. Written by one of our readers whose talent for Litarary Art has not been properly vacinated.
