EDITORIAL PAGE
The Non partisan party of the
First district of Alaska have elected
their (>?Hr? ticket by a nic? major
ity. the same kind of a majority
that the Home Rule party would
iike to ha~e had if political fortune
had selected them for the w inner*;
hut politieal fortune did not select
' her.i and therefore they are not
as enthusiastic in rejoicing as are
the winner*. This observation.
Though noi \ery profound. Is true.
Alaska is greater than political
rutin, I u'.iie all of us have
our pre:ero::i >><. and are entitled to
vote for them, that does not fi?"
any one the right to assume that
the countrv is going to the dogs
..usi because our political oppon
ents are in the majority. Majorities
are not alwav* right; in fact it is
a well known truth that thousands
ofttimes err when few are right.
Those who have lost in this race
can consc'o themselves In the
knowledge that the new legislature
s fee coapawd of Alaskans:
that the day of the carpet bag dom
' nation is closing, and that no mat
ter who his ??n it is going to be
., godsend for Alaska.
The winners say they are in fa
tor of the abolition of the fish
The winners say they are in fa
? or of woman's suffrage and the
In f a< t the winners and losers
are so alike on all question* that
?
i hat the losers Have won all the
benefit* and the winners hav? son

remember that we are winners in a
Cheer up.
About an inch of snow fell last
night; thus it would seem that the
go?ls had conspired with the Non
Partisans in suowing under the
Home Rulers.
l\?litical animosities are like
'snow upon the desert's dusty face,
nhining a few brief moments, and
.s gone " So let It be with us. Re
sentment and jealousy are qualities
of little minds and have no place
with men who are large enough to
?all themselves Alaskans.
If you lose, lose like a prince. It
is only a little difference of opinion,
a little preference one way or an
other that is involved. Skagway Is
still here, the smelter site is still
here, these venerable hills "rock rib
bed and ancient as the sun" are
still here to gather up all the pass
ing winds of heaven and shoot them
down this valley. The whalee will
continue to snort around the bay.
We have everything today that we
had vesterdav.
While all the reports on the
National election have not been
tabulated, enough are in to indicate
the election of Wood row Wilson
and the entire democratic ticket by
the most astonishing majorities ever
given a political party. The defeat
of Taft is so overwhelming that It
is almost sorrowful The people
have spokon in no uncertain terms
this time, and their demand is for a
lessoned tariff and a greater con
trol of the lawless trusts
In Alaska the results can be
heralded with keen delight, for It
means the removal of an offensive
j 'Ot of carpet baggers and their re
| placing with Alaskans.
i Oh. joy!
