SILENCE GREETS
COOLIDGE NOTE
Congress Hears Message
Amid UnaCCuStomed Quiet
CEREMONY is LACKING
Clerks Sing-Song Coolidge
Plea for More Economy

WAsHINGToN. Dec. s.-Amid un.
w accustomed quiet and total alb
sence Of ceremony. the annual mes
sage Of the president Of the United
States was read 10 the two houses
OF congress today for the first time
In IL years with a single unavoid-
able exception.
The appeal OF President Coolidge
for further economy in government
TO permit OF more tax reduction fell
from the practiced lips OF the read
ing clerks Of the senate and house
In sing-song manner, while senators
and representatives sat quietly in
their chairs.
There were no filled galleries TO
applaud each popular statement in
the message and there was no ap-
plause on the floor. The usual
hubbub Of cheering which has
greeted each appearance OF a presi-
dent on the rostrum OF the house
to deliver his report on the state
OF the Union was noticeably alb
sent.
Not since Woodrow Wilson was
forced in 1920 to break his custom
OF reading the message In person,
because Of being bedridden. has
there been any break in the an
nual pageant OF the president read
Ing his message, with the brilliant
gatherings in the diplomatic and of
fetal boxes along the gallery rail.
and the change today seemed to be
too much for the legislators.
When the hour-long reading had
been completed, business of the
day proceeded as usual.

ROBERT MIcHAELSON PAYS
 A VISIT TO SEWARD

Robert Michaelson, veteran placer miner of the Moose Pass district ar rived in Seward on last nights train to purchase supplies for his camp
 MT. Michaelson recently completed deal with Al Sollers of Grant Lake for ten thousand feet of lumber to be used in repairing his ditch, which was damaged in the heavy storms of 1917, and has never been repaired since.
 Oscar Christensen and Sollers will freight the lumber from the mill to the Michaelson property, using one of the largest dog teams in the coun- try for the freighting. From the pro- perty, MT. Michaelson will convey the lumber up to the bench above his camp, where the repairs will be made. According to MT. Michaelson everything will be ready for opera tion in the spring, and he expects to make a good cleanup in the spring, as he recently opened up one of the richest strikes yet made on the pro- perty.
 MT. Michaelson will return to his home on Mondays train.

BISHOP P. I. ROWE
 IN SEWARD TODAY

Bishop Peter T. Rowe, the aged mis- sionary bishop of the Episcopal church in Alaska, arrived here last night rom long trip over Alaska, includ- ing the Arctic slopes. He mushed to Tigara, about 100 miles above Point Barrow, and was picked up by the Bureau of Education steamer Boxer, being aboard that vessel when the crew of the Lady Kindersley was res cued from the ice.
 The Bishop states that the present journey was one of the hardest in his late experiences. Th*rA, was more ice and larger ice packs than at any time in his previous trips and for time he believed he would have to winter in the north.
 Bishop Rowe will remain in Sew ard until Saturday, leaving on the steamer for the States.

JACK PETERSON TAKES
 POSITION ON GATEWAY

Jack Peterson, former manager of the job department of the Anchorage Daily Times, and long recognized as one of the leading job printers in the territory, has taken position with the Gateway, and will be in charge of it's modern job department. MT. Peter son, wife and baby arrived from An chorage on last nights train, and are registered at the Van Glider, until a house can be secured.
 Mr. Peterson has been one of the leading spirits of the Anchorage chamber of commerce and also is an enthusiastic Elk, having been very active in both organizations. He is a hustler and W believe his presence with the Gateway will rebound to the benefit of Seward as he is a hustler and supplies necessary new blood into the business. With Mr. Peterson in charge of the Gateway's fine job de- partment, we believe that it will give our citizens an opportunity to secure work superior to that in the States, and thus keep many hundreds of dol lars at home.
 Within the next few days MT. Pet erson will call on our merchants and customers and talk printing with a punch. We trust that he will be received with the pleasure that we feel in securing his services.
