RKWAItt). Alaska, March 7 Tho (
strike of men employad on the ton
structlen of the government's Alaska
railroad ended yostorday when the
federal labor union at Anchorngo
votod to return to work pending a
settlement of tho wage controversy.
Four hundred mon resumed work
yesterday and more gangs will bo
put on as soon as the union formu
lates a wago scale.
Tho sealo will be fixed by a com
mittee representing tho union and
the Alaska engineering commission
and will bo made retroactive to the
date of resumption of work.
Tho atrlko began February 7 when
sixty trock laycra working on tho An-choragc-Matanuska
branch quit work,
domandlng an increase In pay from
3714 cents an hour to 50 cents an
hour. Two days later workmen at
Anchorago organized tho union with
an crollmcnt of 1200 men and pro
claimed a gonoral strike. Settlement
of the trouble was delated by inter
rupted cablo communication, but
when tho government adopted a con
ciliatory attltudo tho American Fed
eration of Labor instructed tho union
to call off tho striko pending adop
tion of a satisfactory wago scale.
The Alaska engineering commis
sion is anxlouH to proceed with tho
work on tho branch, which will opon
tho Matanunka coal fields, and if no
further troublo Is encountered it la
hoped to complcto this fifty mllo sec
tion or tho lino during tho coming

These arc a lol of Ihings about the coffee business that the public
doesn't know.
There arc a lot of coffees of the "ten -karat'- .variety masquerading
as the "eighteen -karat" kind.
There can be no belter coffee than- V
Royal Cliili
Super-Quality Coffee
It sells regularly at -loc. No "first quality" coffee should sell for
more.
There might be times when a higher price would be justified but
not now.'
"Green coffee" prices fluctuate just as docs sugar or flour and
any other staples. Due to a decreased demand in Europe, coffee
has been "down" for a whole year past. During part of this time
the "best" coffee could be retailed, with a reasonable profit, at 35c
in the home market and -toe in distant markets. During that time
we sold ROYAL CLUB at the reduced price. Recently prices have
advancedthe regular price of ROYAL CLUB is now '10c, and
it's worth il.
The coffee roaster who maintained a price of 40c to 45c, during
this "low market" period, charged you too much he robbed the
public of thousands of dollars. They were entitled to share in this
saving just as they do on sugar and flour and other staples.
The Coffee Roaster who charges you an unreasonable price fifty
one weeks out of the year, for coffee no better than ROYAL
CLUB, and then reduces his price for one week to what it should
have been all the year does not deserve your patronage.
We will cliallenge all competition. ROYAL CLUB has no equal in
quality or price. We will not be undersold no, not for a single
day.
We will allow no "outside" coffee roaster to unload his surplus
stock on the unsuspecting public at what he claims to be a marvel
ous reduction.
For two weeks you may buy
ROYAL CLUB at reduced prices
to meet all competition. Buy it in
any quantity at these prices. You
know it is the best that money can
buy. You know it is fresh for it's
roasted daily in Portland and deliv
ered to your grocer in small quanti
ties just as he needs it. a can
be certain that it his not lost its
strength in warehouses or in transit.
