SEWARD SHOWS PROPER SPIRIT
tF1'um Cordova Times)

The residents of Seward appreciate the value of q daily newspape- to a community and are almost unanimous in their verdict that only through this medium c.in the prosressivenesS and advantages of Il comsnunity be hes- judged They also realize that it costs d.ily, and more so than ever since the Gateway has been issued weekly.
 The best index of atown's p'os- pcl'itN is effected through its diilv newspaper and the merchants of Sew ard have shown in a substantial way they are willing {" support such an enterprise. with the result that the issuance of :h" Daily Gateway is to be resumed just as soon GS the necessary office help can be secured.
 This cuuese Was dec dcd upon bv the owners of that paper after Il thorough canvass of the town hal been made for patronage. Practically every business house in the town has signed a six months contrac: for ad- yertisine space, which includes about sixteen non-advertiscns. while those who have already stood ready to lend d helping hand to the home paper have increased their advertising about fifty per cen:.
 And this commend'tble seward spirit prompts us to call attention to the fact that there ;mH a number oi advertisers in Cordova who are not contributing their share towards tn" support of the Daily Times, which is an eight page paper, with an excel lent Associated Press service and gen- eially recognized as one of the best newspa pers printed in Alaska. Those who are clamoring most about the de- pression in business arc the ones wl!" fail to support their newspaper, which is always labo'ing for the uphulldin% , of the town. AIr. Advertiser you had better n.va this matter q little consideration and when our solicitor calls on you be prepared to do your part tow.D Is keeping Cor'ova on the map.

 What is .hs We hear about our old sourdough Ari"nd Thos. R Shepard who traversed over the tundra abort Nome for many ye.irs during the pi' S. perous days of that camp. He has al- ways been d strong Republican. even in the carly nineties, when he was a law partner of that old-line Democra;. k. has decided that he really wants q political office. and We don't wonder at that, for he is not a lawyer. But We rather expected that he would wish to return to the land of glamour, ex- pectancy and to many, the land of dis illusion.
 But no he aspires to walk on cement Hvements and office in marble build inGs, so he has selected as an abiding place the City of Washington. and he would office under the big roof that protects the official family of the Soc retary "f the Interior. The particular duties that he would perform pertain to the position Of solicitor. with g salary of 5000. the same as the first assistant secretary receives. Possibly Tom thinks he would have less T lii- culty in securing that position be cause 1t is now held by a Pacific coast man. Chas. n. Mahaffie, of Portland

ct GUESS you won't trouble to deny
l. it after that" Larry Donahue
said as Lucy concluded her story.
Charlie shrugged his shoulders and
for moment he looked as he felt. His
bluster had vanished, and his blue eyes
were no longer filled with young AFRO
gance. A sullen look had settled around
his mouth and he looked sneeringly at
Lucy.
"well. the games up" he flung out.
"and I'd like to know what you get
out of 1t, now that you've spilled the
beans"
Lucy turned away. Her fire was
gone. and her slim shoulders dropped.
In that moment she was very forlorn,
almost ugly, and in silence she crept
out of the room.
Harriet looked after her moment,
her own eyes filled with tears, but her
own happiness was so great that she
could hardly keep the triumph out Of
her voice as she spoke excitedly to
Larry.
Come on" he said boyishly. well
pull some wires now and see what
happens And without n word they
hurried out. leaving Charlie alone in
the silent office.
Larry stopped at telephone booth
to telephone his story in to the paper,
and there was a. note of exultation in
his voice as he talked to Dudley Phelps.
I've found the woman all right, and
you ought to see her. Yes, I'm on my
way to the Tombs with her now. Neil

and young Harmon took the bonds. IL
It hadn't been for Mrs. Neil's brains
and young Charles infatuation for her,
the thing might still be a mystery. but,
of course, this isn't for publication"
Phelps smiled as he hung up the re-
ceiver and called n stenographer. Well
he knew young Larry Donahue and the
romantic streak in his nature that made
him of peculiar value to the paper.
Larry could always be depended upon
to ferret out the unusual, and in this
case the story had just the quality to
make it a knockout.
Harriet never forgot the feeling that
swept over her us she walked down
the silent echoing corridors Of the great
prison, past the barred doors through
which peered white faces, until they
unlocked a door.
The light was very dim, and a man

Larry turned away as Harriet stepped
forward and she and Barry were virtu-
ally alone.
He stood there staring at her for a
moment as though she had been an ap-
partition and she put out her hand and
touched him on the arm.
Barry !"
Her voice, the blessed realization of
her voice that he had not heard for so
many weeks, almost unnamed him, and
like starving person his arms went
around her and crushed her to him.
For long moments they did not speak,
and then finally he held her away from
him to look into her eyes.
But what's happened? Why are you
here? Dearest, I'm gone nearly mad
thinking about you. and wondering If
you were safe. Tell me" -
And she told him, told him he was
free, only to have him interrupt by
snatching her into his arms again. To
Barry even freedom was as nothing
compared to the fact that Harriet was
with him again. And her heart ached
to see how thin he had grown, and
how loosely his clothes hung on his
body.
