INSPECT OLD SCHOOLS.

Immediate inspection of all of the
old schol buildings Of the District of
Columbia should be made IMMEDIATE
~ by the officials of the District
building department to determine
their safety. Senator Arthur Cap

congressional committee investigat-
ing the schools, said today. Rigid
tests should be applied to these build
ings. he said, with a view to ascer-
tanning their security beyond shadow
OF doubt
Should any of the buildings col
lapse for any reason whatsoever. he
said, it would be inexcusable, and no.
body could explain on any justifiable
grounds. The District building de-

SCHOOL ROOF LEAK

Peabody Hall.

Discovery Of leak in the roof over
the abandoned assembly hall OF the
George Peabody School, at 9Th and c
streets northeast. and fear that the
plaster would fall, caused Munich
pal Architect Albert Harris yesterday
to order the building closed until
necessary repairs have been made.
Pupils attending the school were dis
missed and notified by the principal,
MISS MISS N; a.; Gertrude Young, to return to
their classrooms tomorrow morning.

in this event the school will be ready

roofs, he said.
All the public schools were closed
Monday and the janitors ordered by
Supt. Ballou to clean the snow from

to reports to school authorities the
roofs on the schools have been COM

DELEGATE SUTHERLAND COMING

Delegate Dan A. Sutherland Will ar
 rive in Seward on the Alameda No matter what our political preferences the fact remains that Mir Sutherland is Delegate to Congress from Alaska, one of the most important offices giv- on out bv the electors of the Territory. The governorship is not so great an office as that of Delegate, for. the gov- ernor is appointed. without paylns heed to the wishes of the people, while the Delegate is appointed direct by the people as their representative in Washington.
 Some arrangement should be made to give MT. Sutherland a fitting recep- tion. He has done much for Seward and for Alaska. He may not have played the game as we would have it played, but taking him full and bye he has been a good delegate. Therefore he should be fittingly welcomed. You may not be intending to vote for him at the primaries, but you should be in favoring of extending the freedom of Seward to our Delegate from Alaska This is but fair to our representative

PLAYGROUND NEEDED

One thing that Seward needs badly is a playground where children can go to play and stay off the streets. The practice of children playing on the main street has recently cost one par ent the price of a big plate glass win dow. When children are at play or the main street there is not only dan ger to windows but to the children as we'll and we have been fortunate tha no accidents have occurred.
 Children must have some place tt play ar' .t is hard to keep them of the streets unless they have such { place. Some of the vacant lots clos R tl9EB cqNfbNt ggt fting it Hanh hpacs fol O children to play. ....t....
 The management of such a play ground could be left to the Boy Scout. and proper care for the little tots would be assured under rules, of play enforced by the Boy Scouts managers
 The cause is one worthy of the ex penditure of public money for equip ment. The cost would not be grea' and great benefit would result fol the children of Seward.

GIVE US YOUR SUPPORT.

The Gateway wants your support. Like other papers in the Territory we are having trouble to make both ends meet, and without the united support of the people of Seward cannot do so. By support we mean your moral sup port, as we'll as financial. In fact. your moral support is of more importance to the paper than any financial SUD- port could be. We are doing our best to represent the city and bring it's ad- vantages before the Outside world, and we are doing this with an abiding faith in the town and its people. The Gateway has no enemies, or rather, it should have no enemies, for, 1t is out to "get" no one; 1t has no criticisms to make of any person or thing, and it desires merely to be a purveyo2 of news, for Seward ana vicinity.
 If you have news to give out, tele- phone us and reporter will call. If you speak of the paper. give it good name. Try and help our representa- tives, and overlook the mistakes and frailties of the paper, as you would have the paper overlook yours.
 By pulling together we can make Seward a big city; by pulling apart we can force each other into bankruptcy and cause the grass to grow in the streets.
 The Gateway wants to be your pa per, exclusive of all others. It must be to succeed

PUBLIC SALARIES

With the new council in the saddle comes the talk of reducing the cost of the city government by the reduction Of the salaries of the public officials. It is quite the fad nowadays to attempt to reduce the burden of taxation and the aim is laudable one but to begin by reducing the salaries of public off, cials Is the wrong beginning.
 It is seldom that public officials are overpaid. The rule is that they are underpaid and the result is that the man who can make a living at some- thing else will not go into the public service. The term of office is always uncertain with little or no chance for advancement which factors are to be considered by a man in accepting a public office, To offset these draw backs the man, who will give value re- ceived requires more salary than is usually paid for public service. -
 Seward has always paid we'll and she deserves to have first class service in return. Let the matter of reducing the salaries of public officers be well considered before action is taken.

of our representative citizens from

was to hear proposition submitted
by the State Road Department for the
construction of part and the recon-
struction of part Of the road leading
from Vanceburg to the Mason county

Hon. ]. l.. Trumbo represented the
State Road Department and read a
letter from the department wherein
they agree to go $3.50 with the county
on the construction of the 10 miles be-
tween Tollesboro and Valley. For our
expense money the state will cancel

county by the state on the sl50,000
