WHAT WICKEKSHAU MEAN I
The Wickersham speech which is
published elsewhere this morning will
lie re ?l with deep interest by m&uy ol
our readers. Northing short of the
s|>eech itself will convince many per
sons that the judge holds such opinions
regarding the needs of Alaska at this
time, in view of his numerous utter- 1
ances to the contrary. Can it be that)
there are politics and personalities In :
'his remarkable spoech We hope
not, but time, which reveal.- all things,
will tell.
The Kecord-Miner will try to throw j
some light on the subjtct.? Hecord
Miner.
The Alaskan believes, and is free to
say that it believes, from all that it has
been able to learn, that Judge Wicker
shaui was honestly stating his opinions
when he made his speech in Seattle
recently. It does not thin* ,4lhat
there are politics and personalities in
this rtmarkable speech. " Not being a
seer it cannot attempt to pass judg
ment on the condition of Judge Wicker
sham s mind. Nevertheless this news
paper is satisfied that "time, which
reveals all things, will tell," and is
content to wait and not attempt to
place Judge Wickersham in a false
lignt when everything points to his
meriting just the opposite treatment.
News reports inform us ,hat during a
recent drive in Oregon twelve women
were seen working ia the hay flelc'8.
most of them riding on hay rakes or
mowers. And probably uot one of the
twelve will be any the worse for the,
work. Maud Muiler worked with an
old-fashoned, wooden tooth hind rake
That was hard labor beside riding a
modern, self-dump rake, drawn by
horses. So long as a woman do*"s cot'
undertake work beyoid her stret gth,
the fact that it is outdoor work injures
neither her health nor her reputation
The last plea of Schiuiiz has beeu
turned dowu by the District Court of j
of Appeals. The fcoodling mayor is now
!u a position to understand the plight
of the storied individual whose attorney
assured him "They cannot put you in
| jail." At the beginning of the trouble
Schtuitz frequently assured himself, as
well as the pnolie, that he could uot he
convicted. It seems to be another case
of the condition and the theory meeting
in headon collision.
?'Somebody has started a story and
it is being widely disseminated through
the press, that the word "thousand" is
misspelled on the new thousand dollar
treasury certitlcates." ? Ketchikan
Miner.
As soon as we get time we will look
some of ours over and tind out.
