NO SHORT WEIGHT BY COAL DEALERS
Check-Up by Sealer Carlson
 Shows Policy Of Honesty

Not a single prosecution for short weight in coal or in merchandise has been found necessary this year vigilant checking up on weighings by Sealer Carl A. Carlson having disclosed no occasion for such ac- ton.
 This condition did not always pre- vail, the sealer recalls, for 1t was common occurrence in other years to hale coal dealers, grocers and meat market owners into court to answer for discrepancies between the poundage charged for and that actually delivered.
 Sealer Carlson makes frequent re- Weighings, There have been in- stances where there were shortages found in loads of coal, but they in- variably amounted to but few pounds, and in every instance other loads sent out from the same yard prior to the short weighed consign- ment showed considerable extra poundage, he reports.

World Court Fight

With advocates of the world court holding the front line for the moment opponents in the senate were mar shalling their forces today for long siege.
 They were preparing not only for prolonged discussion of an issue held in abeyance for nearly three years, but also for the presentation Of numerous reservations of amend ments which they hold to be neces- sary to safeguard the United States should 1t adhere to the court pro- tocol.
 These reservations would be in ad- dition to the five suggested by Presi- dents Harding and Coolidge in their messages urging ratification and in- clude in the resolution of adherence by Senator Swanson. democrat, Vir- ginia. which is before the senate.
 With the League of Nations issue joined in the controversy. leaders in the fight against ratification of the protocol are hopeful that they can obtain a majority of the senate for the chief reservations they will put forward.
 With the opening gun in the bat tie fired only yesterday by Senator Swanson, none of the leaders would venture an opinion today as to the time of a final vote. The more op- timistic said 1t probably was several weeks distant while others thought 1t might be some months away.
 Present indications are that both sides will contribute freely to the de- bate even before additional reserva- tions are brought under considera- ton. Discussion and disposition of these necessarily will consume much additional time.
 Walsh Strong for Court
 Renewing senate debate on the world court issue. Senator Walsh, democrat, Montana, declared today that by adhering to the protocol Of the court the United States would bind itself to Absolutely nothing save a contribution toward the ex- pense of maintaining the tribunal.
 We enter into no convent 10 do or to refrain from doing anything" he said. "We would continue to en- joy, should the treaty, or protocol as it is called, be ratified. every right as a sovereign nation we now enjoy.
 ''We do not undertake to submit to the court any controversy in which we may become involved, we assume no responsibility for any decision 1t may make or promul- gate or for the enforcement of any judgment 1t may render. AS we incur no obligations by adhering 10 the protocol, we acquire no rights.
 We may now, if we see fit to do so, resort to the court for determi- nation of our rights in any contro- versy we have with another na- tion. Our right in that regard is neither expanded nor restricted by ratification of the protocol"

the church without cost by MT. Frank L. Ballaine.
 The Rev. Thomas Philip Graham is the present pastor of the Seward Methodist Church, and occupies the parsonage next door to the church.
 It was on June 27, 1905, that the Roman Catholic Church had it's begin ming in Seward for on that date the Rev. Father P. H. Turnell, accompa- nied by the Rev. Father Hanley, ar rived and took hold of the work here. q The first service was held in Moores Hall, and meetings were continued some two weeks. Later tent house was erected for worship. Their pres ent building was completed and dedi- cated during the year 1910. This church is serviced by the Rev. Father Turnell from Anchorage, who visits Seward as often as he deems neces- sary.
 Thus it will be seen from the story of the three churches in Seward that they each, like Israel of old, first wor- shipped God in a tent. Each also in it's beginning might we'll be likened unto Elijah's little cloud out of the sea, like mans hand" but with pro- mise of abundance of rain," for their combined strength today is amply sufficient to supply the water of life" to all who will drink thereof.
 One other fact soon becomes notice able to the newcomer to Seward as he studies the church situation here, viz: The fraternal and friendly spirit which prevails among the church folk Of the community. That does not mean that we have no fixed and definite views concerning ones own particu- lar sect or denomination; for we have. and some of us very strongly so. Yet we recognize most of us, the very evident fact that not all true Chris tians, nor all true Christianity, is em- braced within ones own particular di- vision of the church. This is the true spirit of New Testament Christianity, and that of Gods entire written word. The Psalmist said long before the coming of the Christ: Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for breth- ren to dwell together in unity"

(By Thomas Philip Graham)

Seward has three churches-The Church of the Sacred Heart (Roman Catholic); St. Peters (EpiscopaD and the Methodist Episcopal Church
 The Episcopalians were the first to enter this field, their first meeting be- ing held June 12, 1904, in the resi- dence of Dr. D. H. Sleem, and was conducted by the Rev. F. c. Taylor of Valdez. Following this initial service they worshipped several times in Moore's Hall. During the following year tent church was erected and furnished for worship. During the winter of 1905-6 their present church building was begun which has since been completed; and they now have a beautiful house of worship, also a modern rectory, both of which equal any owned by this church in Alaska.
 This church is at present served by the Rev. Wm. A. Thomas who resides at Anchorage, and serves the church l there also. MT. Thomas visits Sew ard once each month remaining over through the following Sabbath and conducts services in his church.
 l The Methodists entered Seward shortly following the coming of the Episcopalians. During August, 1904, the Rev. John Parsons, DID,, Super intendent of Alaska Methodist Mis- sions visited Seward for the purpose of opening up work here. His first service was held in a vacant saloon building. A Sunday School had al ready been organized before Dr. Par sons arrival; hence, the Methodist l Church in Seward was really born in a Sabbath School.
 It was during the middle of the fol- lowing year before Dr. Parsons suc- ceeded in obtaining a minister for Seward, at which time the Rev. Louis H. Pedersen was secured. MT. Peder- sen, with his family, arrived during the night of August 31, 1905, on the steamship Portland.
 The church was duly organized a month later. Their first house of worship was a ten tin which public worship was conducted for quite a while. Later their present building was erected. They now have one of the prettiest and most convenient church buildings in Alaska, also a modern six-room parsonage located on the lot adjoining that on which the church stands. The lots on which these buildings stand were deeded to

Two miles below Seward on Re- surrection Bay, the Russians had an immense ship yard. Back in the hills some distance is an old Russian fort.

The whole region is rich in ancient lore, which, if it were any place but Alaska, would be speedily capitalized.
