At recent meeting of the Anchor age chamber of commerce the ques- tion Of dividing the territory was dis cussed pro and con, and it was decid- ed to allow the matter to come before congress at the instigation of it's pro- ponents of the first division In case the division is made, either Seward or Anchorage would be the capital, with new territorial officers to be elected and much new blood injected into this division. There is so much to be said in favor of division, and so little that can be said against it, that the ques-- tion should carry unanimous, if put to vote of the people

One of the first things done by the new manager of the Alaska railway should be to tear down the polyglot signs posted at it's several stations, and insist that it's employees be loyal Americans, or at least have taken out their first papers for citizenship. If the government wants to instill a spir- it of patriotism among Alaskans, it should set the example. The requi- sites for a job on the government railroad should be that an employe can read and write the English Ian. guage. So few of us understand it that it would be superfluous to make this a necessary adjunct to employment.

The Chamber of Commerce is mak- ing drive for new memberships, one of the most important with the ex- ception of the Red Cross, and one of untold benefit to the town. There is no reason why every citizen of Sew ard should not belong to the local Chamber. It is working increasingly for the betterment of the town, with out political or social bias. One does not have to attend the luncheons to be member, nor does one have to be a member to attend the luncheons. All that is expected or required is that the member place his shoulder to the wheel in helping bring Seward 10 her destined greatness.

Alaska will come back when it's prospectors return to the hills and it's mines reopen. The establishment of Standard oil tanks at Seward will go far toward reopening the mines, in providing cheap fuel and power. but
 it requires the old-school prospector to find these properties for development, and they are rapidly passing away or going outside. The youngster of the present era hangs too close to the silk sock area to develop any new ground.

BATTLE ROYAL IN CABARET
Thugs Set Upon Harry Carey

announced as the feature attract
ion at the Isis Theatre on Satur.
day. The famous Western star,
whose new association with the
Film Booking Offices ,9f America,
has already won him new popul-
arity the country over, was COM
PEELED to exert more energy and
take greater personal risk in the
filming of the Eugene Manlove
Rhodes story than ever before in
his career on the screen.
Not only did he work to the
point of exhaustion before the
flickering lights but he had to
fight in dozen hand-to-hand con
flicts that would have tried the
strength of dozen Jack Dempseys
In order to fit himself for this wild
display of fisticuffs, in which the
Marquis of Queensberry rules were
disregarded completely, he round
ed up lot of the priZe-ring den
liens of the coast and had them
put through his PAGES. Among
the professional boxers he fought
were Spike" Robinson. Johnny
Schiff, Young Abe Attell, Mickey
Farrell, Frankly Ely and Sailor
Ackerman. These boys are we'll
known wherever fight fans gather
The big scene for which all this
training was necessary depicted a
battle royal in tinseled desert
cabaret, in which Carey had to
fight almost single-handed hard
listed band of thugs who sought
by fair means or foul to lay Tim
low. He carried out his end OF the
fight like real hero but when he
emerged from the fray he had so
many cuts and bruises on his face
and body he looked as if he had
been battling flock Of wild cats.
