HAVE PATIENCE

NEW OFFICERS for the ensuing year will be nominated at the Chamber of Commerce meeting tomorrow It is of vital interest to every citizen that live, energetic men be placed at the head of the chamber During the past year, under the guidance of MT. C. c. Hnde president of the chamber, it has accomplished more direct results than at any time i'll it's history. The attendance at meetings has been larger and better spirit of citizenship has been manifested. Seward IS gradually emerging from her captious, querulous mood of former years and much of this is due to the meetings of the chamber once week where the cup which cheers but does not inebriate a spirit of good fellowship is foistered. Secretary Harmon has also made good officer, keeping up with his voluminous correspondence besides spend ing many hours gathering data for the statistical department. These officers carry considerable home with them, but also cause considerable work Be on hand tomorrow and watch Seward grow in 1925.

PRAISE FOR GATEWAY

Subscribers universally praising the Gate way in it's new form From every hand ex- pressons of qualification over the faith the owners have in the ultimate growth of Seward, and nation al advertisers have already expressed their appre
 citation by sending in good orders for the coming year. While the new Gateway is in the nature of experiment and depends upon the amount of patronage received we will never go back to the old style. We believe the Gateway to be the best advestising medium in Alaska today, when one considers its circulation to the westward and to the northward along the railroad. While we do not desire to hold up advertisers for advertis- ing than they can afford, we do ask them to give us all they spare We believe the money will be returned to them in greater volume by patron izng the Gateway, instead of scattering it in papers and magazines published outside the city. Money spent at home invariably returns to the spender. When spent outside it is gone forever, and general ly the goods of cheaper quality than sold by local merchants. With the extensive stocks carried by town merchants can get anything needed at home And lest we fsrget the Gateway would make nice Christmas present for friends outside
 The donor will be remembered 52 times each year and greater interest aroused in your home town

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT

Chairman William M. Butler will continue at the head of the Republican National Committee af- ter he has taken his seat in the Senate That news will be welcome reassurance to all those who Lave the best interests of the party at hearK It means that the Butler methods that impressively won the election will be continued throughout the next two years in preparation for the election of 1926 wien ,aeobers of the Senate and House will be chos How important that is may be realized from the fact that the republicans have practically no hope of gaining any seats in the Senate two years hence because all the Democratic Senators whose terms expire at that time come from the south where they cannot be disturbed. That means that the Democratic organization will concentrate it's tire strength in states where there seems a chance of unseating Republican Senator. The best de- fense of which Republicans capable must be call ed into play if the party is to avoid loss in the Upper House.

A PERFECTLY COORDINATED
 EXECUTIVE

When many of his friends urged
 him to take vacation, President C..
 Coolidge calmly declined. He says he does not need it, and is probably right. 4 cca2 Of hic habits Of mind
 and body seldom needs a vacation.
 Although he is hard and tireless worker, he does not permit his work to get the better of him. He makes it practice to clear his desk every day. To keep physically fit he takes la walk every morning. His philos- ophy of life enables him to take events calmly, and, therefore, he is mot worn out by worry. He never goes into mysteries, from which some men need vacation in order to re-
 cover
 President Coolidge made only a few speeches during the recent cam pign, but review of those speech
 es will show that they covered a wider range of subjects, more thoro- ughly covered, than did the speech es of his opponents. It is true that Davis and LaFollette were making several speeches every day, but they were practically delivering the same speech over and over. President Coolidge did not waste his energies rehashing his views from day to day but took the trouble to set forth his ideas on each subject with perfect clearness and then left the people to form their judgment. Thus it was that Coolidge contributed more to the discussion of the real issue of the campaign than did his adversar- ies, notwithstanding the fact that they were devoting to their task more noise and physical exertion.
 Economy is one of the elements in the Coolidge character, and economy of time and strength enables him to accomplish much with relatively lit the expenditure of his mental and physcial resources. Since he does not wear himself out with needless

THE OTHER SIDE

Now that various branches of organized labor have entered the capalistic field they are begin ming to the other side of disputes between labor and capital. The Brotherhood of Locomotive En- gineers purchased a West Virginia coal mine, and promptly in collision with the United Mine Workers At the American Federation of Labor convention at Ell Paso the Mine Workers presented a formal complaint that the Brotherhood had been dischargng miners ''for exercising their constitu- tional rights of affatmg with the union of their craft. The secret of the matter is said to be that the Brotherhood found that it could not mine coal profitably union miners wages so cut was an- nounced and trouble began forthwith. It is for tunate for business in general that pros porous unions making investments of their sur plus funds The controversies that ensue are of very material aid in bringing about sympa- thetic understanding between capital and labor.

BUDDY KEEPS HIS BALANCE

Possibly I have no business try praise of World War Veterans, but I am going to anyway. I am one of them and I believe that notwith- standing that fact, they should be praised for their mental attitudes to- wards matters political Politics is not discussed in the American Le- zion meetings and the officers of the Legion dare not be candidate or hold CTS of elective or appointive public places, though the Legion did all it could towards advancing the non-par- tisan idea of getting out the vote' Coolidge vetoed the bonus bill, fol- lowing Harding's similar action. Then you know, the bill passed over the Coolidge veto. Did the Legion boys hold spite, and work tooth and nail against Coolidge? They did not. But if they had, there would have been a vastly different result in the election. An absolutely united ex- service mans vote and influential vote would total at least fifteen mil lion in the United States Think it over
 "The ex-service men voted for whom they thought would be the best man. There was no turning away from Coolidge just on account of his veto. Many ex-service men still believe he made a mistake, but
 on the other hand that he made a good president, generally speaking, and millions of the 'doughboys' voted
 for Cal as though nothing distaste-
 full had happened. To me that is a
 very healthful sign for the future of the American Legion. It is too big and it's ideals too noble to be sway
 ed by prejudice and spitework. It
 will be heard from in the future even more than in it's glorious past"

NO APOLOGY

The Soviet government demands apology from Great Britain for imputng to it the circula- ting of propaganda for the overthrow of British in stitutions This reminds us of the indignant de- nial that came from Moscow when Secretary Hughes charged the soviet government with the circulation of communistic literature in the United States. In- stead of recanting, Mr. Hughes produced documen- tary proof of his indictment There will be no apology from Great Britain, but instead there will be further tightening of British defenses against the insidious bolshevik influence

THE POLISH REFUND

An agreement for the refunding of the Polish debt to the United States amounting to about $l79,OO00O0, has been reached by the Foreign Debt Refundng Commission and the Polish delegates. Ii remains to be ratified by Congress, but 1t viii pro ably receive the approval of that body. This makes the fourth nation to enter into such agreement and the Republican Administration is now conduct ing negotiations with others. With the stability of Europe restored through the Dawes plan, it seems probable that the next four years will see debt settlements with practically all the debtor tions and the money of taxpayers being re- stored to them in regular nstaments.
