AS winter approaches on every hand can be heard expressions of pessimism regarding economic condi- tions. After a long residence in> Al aska and a four-years' residence in Seward we can state without equivo. cation that the coming winter will not be any worse nor any better than those gone before. Business condi- tions, which are the actual barometer of times, show that as great a volume of business has been done the past month as in previous years, and the Alaskan who expects to come through any winter without getting in the red is evidently kidding himself vol untarily. The woods are full of ptar- migan and rabbits and coal is from s6.50 to s11 per ton. A barrel of grits and poke of cornmeal go a mighty long ways toward making good times. Anyhow, it ain't goin' to rain no more.

PLACING THE RESPONSIBILITY

Tie Seward Chamber of Commerce ran LID against a snag in it endeavor to place the responsibility for the recommendations to close Resurrec- tion Bay for fishing, and also to close Uganik bay. A letter received from the Governor states that mo records" were kept of the meeting which was Purely informal" If a purely informal meeting can wreck a s100,000 business and take from five to seven thousand dollars away from Seward in payrolls, we shudder to think what might have occurred in case the meeting had been con-
 ducted along regular lines. Too much responsibility evidently has been plac- ed in the hands of the commission. While we believe in fish mad game reserves, if we are to have any fish or game, until the big outside com
 panies are controlled the law is too much like a boomerang for the only Alaska company affected. The local plant is owned solely by local peO- pie, who have their money invested.

TUNNELS IN RESIDENTIAL
 DISTRICT ARE EXPLAINED

WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 15.- The "baffling mystery of the laby- rinth of underground passageways discovered last week in an exclusive residential district of the capital, a neighborhood of embassies and costly mansions, has been solved. Harri- son G. Dyar, quiet and unassuming entomologist in the Smithsonian insti- ute, put an end to feverish specula- tions that ran the gamut from Ger man spies to bootleggers, conspira- tors and what not, when he told a newspaper reporter he dug the pas sageways for recreation after office hours.
 Digging tunnels after work is my hobby; there's really no mystery about it," MT. Dyar was quoted as saying when he rather reluctantly told the story to quiet the agitations of the imaginative which have been filling the local press since the wheels of motor truck sank through a crust of earth and revealed the tunnels.
 The scientist explained that he found cave digging a helpful form of exercise as we'll as an entertainment for his young son. The passageways on which he worked for about a per iod of about ten years, were now near ly ten years old, he said, having been constructed on property he owned in the rear of a house from which he has since moved.

PERHAPS if the farmer lived like his forebears a quarter of a century ago he would make as much or more money than they did. The trouble with the farmer is not the price of his products but the price he pays for living. Several years ago the farmer raised his grain, and had it ground; he raised his hogs and had his meat; he raised his vegetables and his transportation. Today he buys his meat, his flour and his vege- tables. He rides to town in a Ford, instead of behind strawburner. His sons wear broadcloth instead of .ov- erals and protect their hands with kid gloves while in the fields. Prices were never higher for farm produce than they are today. A little back to the soil stunt and back to the old style of living would speedily solve the question for the farmer. If he must ape the city dweller in style and mode of living he should be content to assume their hand to mouth ex- istence and their burden of debts.

SEWARD citizens are more forum late than majority of coast dwellers in that an abundance of large and small game is to be found within a very few miles of town. Geese, rab- bits, ducks, ptarmigan and grouse abound practically in the city limits while moose, sheep and goats may be killed within three to twenty miles of town. This makes for easy living, the single man with a cabin getting by with only light grocery bill to pay, as wood can be had for the cut ting. With the present excellent school system, it is source of won derment that more families do not winter here, and take advantage of the opportunities to live in modern town at small cost.

|SPONCES PLENTIFUL
 LATOUCHE WATERS

l The Juneau Empire, commenting upon the finding of sponges of com mercial value in the vicinity of Sitka, says:
 That Alaska may have new in dustry, perhaps on limited scale, is indicated by the finding recently of two live sponges by Capt. Cedric Davis at Leo Anchorage near Chichagoff Island.
 i The sponges were attached to the anchor rope of the mine tender Chi chagoff, when it was drawn from the water. One sponge measures 4 1-2 inches one way, 3 inches another and about one inch in thickness. The other sponge is 6 inches across. The smaller one will be presented to the Alaska Museum.
 In discussing the find, Trevor Davis, brother of Capt. Cedric Davis, said: ''The sDonges were found in water which was decidedly warm. Capt Davis plunged his arm into the water and was astonished at it's warmth. As everybody knows, sponges gron only in warm water. The find of the sponges off Chichagoff island, to my idea, indicates that the Japanese cur rent. is moving in-shore perhaps the change having been caused by the re- cent earthquake disturbances"
 Many varieties of sponges are to be found in the North Pacific ocean, and for many years sponges of tex ture resembling the bath sponge have been washed up in the Port Wells dis trict, nesr Latouche. These sponges are of large size and undoubtedly in- dicate the existence of large bed. Sponges are easily transplanted and grow within 9 few years to large size. They gre generally tramped out ir running water which removes the ve- gesable of animal matter, anI packed when thoroughly dry in bales. Trans planting has been very successfully practiced in Florida and other parts of the country.
 According to the best authorities sponges will grow in any temperature. of water above freezing, so long as 1 other vegetable matter will live and no mud exists in the water.

There is no question that there is more fish today than there was ten years ago before the streams were cleared. The small pack shipped out by the local company apparently does not affect the fish in any way, as the ears the cannery has good pack shows the streams full of fish. A poor year for the. cannery shows no run in the streams. The Chamber of Commerce is apparently determin- ed to find out how the above order was made, and who was Responsible. But if the meeting was purely infor- nal evidently the recommendation to close the bay S4 hours week will also be informal, and we have no cause to worry.

cellent health. That he was mental ly unbalanced at the time of his death goes without saying. The per- son who commits suicide to get away from imaginary ills does not know what ills lie before him. Life has TO zest to the man who has tri-d out every new sensation and therefore the man with little worldly expert ence is generally the best off and the most contented. Life is what one makes it, and it can be made a hell on earth or a paradise of content ment, as one wishes. It is impossi- ble to draw upon the human life re- serve without paying interest in tile end.

TT is reported on good authority that Kodiak is to have a newspaper in the near future. Many new in dustries have gone to Kodiak the past few months, owing to the rumor that cold storage plant will be built there. Seldovia has also picked up considerably in population. Both towns have great future before them, and are located on excellent harbors. There is no reason why the westward district should not support one hundred times the population it does, and within a few short years it will do so
