stayed late, had left her switch

There were three keys on the lit

in the lock, and the drawer flew
open!
There was a big sheaf Of plain
white paper in the drawer and on
the top OF it lay the note!
Without stopping TO look at II,
Chatty banged the drawer shut and
fairly ran back to her wi room.
There she read IL:
I'D like to see Mr.. Van first thing

That was all. Just a plain little

But why had Dave written II III

didn't want Winnie Talcott to hear

COMMUNICATION
Ye Editor,

Ye Editor,
 The Gateway, Seward, Alaska.
 While casually perusing the col umnS of our literary blossom, i. e., The Gateway, the other day, the rowing eyes of the writer paused at one of the little editorial gems, that the editor drops from his pen fre- Quently when the spirit so moves him.
 The gem in question was one eX- pounding the climatic beauties and wonders of the coastal country, particularly that part centering around the Resurrection city, com pairing it's sterling qualities with the undisputed and world reknoWn state of California home of the na- tive sons.
 While the writer is not a native son of that fair state, nevertheless it behooyes him to take up the cudgels in the behalf of our vast Interior or Inside as it is known to AlaskanS.
 AS the editor wields his brilliant journalistic pen, he loses sight of the fact our great inside country, particularly along the Yukon, has much more sunshine than the coast.
 And while the Sourdough goes about his daily bushes up in the Far Frontier, under the pale blue skies of the midnight sun, whose golden lingering rays shine down upon the cabins and homes of the rainbow chaserS. It is a very la miliar picture from past experience to see the sea dwellers walking about in rubber boots and oil skins, like 50 many seals. And while the dwellers of the deep have no fins, occasionally one may be seen with web feet, something totally un- known inside.

Thus, while they, the web feet, splash around all winter i'll rain l fog and wet snow, their Arctic brothers, in the far north, of which the writer is one, "mush" around comfortably all winter, dressed in iparky and muckluck2 x, in the clear fresh dry winter atmosphere or balmy days when it is only 40 be- low
 It is then that one may see the lice worms, the snow snakes and the frost bugs, a sight never seen by human eyes on the coast.
 And while the SewarditeS were struggling thru the wet gloomy nights the writer was enjoying the .glories of the Arctic lights beneath Ia canopy studded with countless sparkling gems.
 As further proof of the wonder ful inside climate both winter and summer, I might mention the fact that last January upon my depart ure for the Yukon, my raincoat, which was green with moss, was slowed away in the war bag, and only few days ago, after arriving on the salt waters, did I remove 1t from the war bag, with a heavy heart
 As Alaska is a big country and the home of big things it is hoped that the editor in his future jour- nalistic battles will be big enough and not forget the Vast Frontier lying close up to the Circle, for all is a part of the whole.
 While not wishing to subtract for the editors eloquent and literary brilliancy, it is hoped these few lines may cause the eyes of the editor to wander over the peaks of the coast range and vision the Great Empire Beyond.
 The writer trusts the gentleman .of the press will broaden his artls- tic vision when he pens his next literary gem" and be on his guard las the writer may yet drop another bomb on the journalistic battle field

In the Stock Market
CBy Thomson d McKinnonl

NEW YORK, June 13.-Assuming
that banking sources are correct in
their surmise, perhaps the most en-
couraging development that has
arisen since the acute credit situa-
ton developed what appears to be
the beginning of a reversal in the
policy of the federal reserve board
toward the money market. Appar-
emily the reserve board has been a
buyer of bills as well as government
securities. during the past week, and
although this was quite likely done
to prevent undue disturbance in
money rates over the midmonth
period. it naturally leads to the
Supposition that interest rates some
what closer to normal levels are not
improbable within a reasonable
period. Reports from the steel in
dustry indicate that business has
not been unduly distributed during
the campaign of the reserve author
tiles and with the hnal passage OF
the farm bill taken Tor granted it
seems to me the whole situation is
shaping up to a point where invest
ers will again be attracted to the
many favorable opportunities which
the present market offers.

RACKET PROBE
is LAUNCHED
BY GRAND JURY
Witnesses Called Familiar
With Workers. Groups
Reported involved.

First steps in what is believed to
be an investigation of recent alleged
racketeering activities in Indian
apolis, including the DETACHMENT of
signboards and the bombing of a
north side apartment, we're Under
stood taken by the Marion county
grand jury today.
This report became current when
Charles Glore, of Porter, Glore and
Glass Electric Company, 215 Hudson
street, understood to be familiar
with electrical workers here, APP
peared before the grand jury short
ly before a. m.
The probe is believed precipitated
by the arrest last week of Frank
Tieben, "a, of 314 North Delaware
street, and Harry IpSkin, 43, Of SOC
Fair building. charged in criminal
court with malicious trespaSs.
Daniel Deane, executive board
member of the local electrical union
Charles Lutz, business manager, and
N. P. Sweeney, local electrician, also
testified before the jury.
Forthwith subpenaS we're issued
for these men and it is understood
several other persons are being
sought by grand jury special in
Yestigators. The investigators have
been doing undercOver work on the
probe and their names have not been
made public.
Arresting officers alleged the two
threw lamp bulbs. filled with oil and
lanpblack at signboards here just
before Memorial day. Seventy sigl1-
boards were defsced, it is alleged,
with a damage Of approximately
$1,000.
Tieben and Ipskin left the employ
OF the General Outdoor Advertising
Company several weeks ago when
the firm instituted an open-shop
policy.
1t was reported the grand Jury
also would inquire into the explosion
which caused minor damage to an
apartment under construction at
3056 North Meridian street June 3,
on the theory it may have resulted
from racketeering.
The jury was understood to be
seeking books and records of the
local electrical union, No. 481 in an
attempt to learn if any expenditures
had been made for illegitimate pur-
poses.
Vincent II. Manifold. grand jury
deputy, would not comment on the
reOOrted Investigation.
