TURN ABOUT IS FAIR PLAY

Seattle shipping circles freely admit that to Alaska must go the credit for really starting the port of Seattle as "world port" It that dispatch, published around the world in 1897 that started the most famous gold rush in history, which took Seattle from little known Humber town" to commercial city.
 Shipping to Alaska still remains very material fac tor in the Seattle activities, with P lines serving the northern treasure house. Alaska has annual com approaching hundred million dollars and fully 80 per cent of this is done in Seattle.
 If such is the case then why does not Seattle get be- hind Alaska whole heart and soul and assist in making something of the country that put the Puget Sound city on the map to stay?

Scudder, who, curiously enough,

motif, in fact, is the first evidence
of the usual "yellow'\ trimmings.
And the defendants can't be

And the press can't be blamed for
