SPIRIT CITY'S ALLEGED NEWS
PAPER.
The Seattle Times is groesquely
absurd in its efforts to be a purveyor
of news and a moulder of public opin
ion. Its attempt to deliver a tell
ing blow in fa\or of certain interests
through playing up the Cordova in
cident was a. piece of opera bouffe
that is disgusting to all self-respect
ing Alaskans. The remarkable part
Is that the publication, seems to take
itself seriously and exact compen
sation for the insuffesable slush whitll
it deals out in a sensational way* and
palms off on the public as news.
The Times style of journalism
ceased to be of any force years ago.
If it were of any consequence, long
since there would have been a pro
nounced storm of indignation. The
revolution*, conceived by one J. J.
Underwood, of the Times staff, and
thrust out in screaming headlines an
nouncing tha: an army of Alaskans
were forcibly taking possession of
public property and committing other
depredations of a serious nature are
absurdly rediculous.
This attempt to belittle the char
acter of Alaskans in general merely
to accentuate the pointed distress of
its clientele in the illegal coal grab
bing, and land grabbing, contest has
not made it any friends in the
North, nor has it by any means won
any special reward for its paymaster.
The last "piece de res'stence"' as
a head liner in the burlesque show it
is putting up for its audience is the
attack on Delegate Wickersham
which appeared in Sunday's issue ac
cording to the press dispatches of
yesterday. The rehashing of all
that old junk which was handed out
all over the territory during the
last campaign in the effort to defeat
Mr. Wickersham will fool no one
but the people who have been pur
suaded to pay for its publication
oncA again.
This disposition of Seattle publica
tions to meddle in Alaska politics,
more than all else is the strongest
factor that is surely, swiftly, and de
cidedly, winning the trade of Alaska
away from the city of Seattle. The
sooner Seattle and her coterie of
crooked politicians understand that
we are able and anxious to take
care of our own political affairs just
that much quicker will there be a
chance to stem the tide of unpopu
larity now directed toward the spirit
city.
THE OUTLOOK.
There is every reason why the peo
ple of Haines and vicinity should feel
optimistic. Business is not booming
to be sura but nevertheless it is in a
fairly healthy condition. Everybody
who cares to work is busy and enjoy
iag good health which in itself is an
evidence of prosperity.
Several of the larger interests are
out with large crews opening up tho
immense copper deposits of the
Rainy Hollow and Three Guardsmen
districts. The railroad people have
crews in the field setting the stakes
where the line has been permanently
located and other crews are moving
on the front working on the feeon
naisancc- surveys.
Regularly the gold shipments come
down from the mines of the Porcu
CANDY %'Jp
r r es nest
and Sweetest in the Candy Line
Just Received at BRITT'S
pine and are sent out to be minted
into mouey of the realm and in the
course of time this samei money will
fiud its way back here and be dis
tributed in the further development
of our section.
The fishing season is upon us and
thia can be counted on as a never
failing source of revenue.
ISut do we fully appreciate our
chance? This is a question that
each citizen of Haines should ?sk
himself. While we realize the meas
ure of prosperity that we enjoy
through the channels that are al
ready opened is there not some way
of improving these avenues that lead
to development?
Haines is situated at a strategic
podnt and will in timo be the distri
buting depot for a large mining sec
tion but are we fully awake as to our
possibilities?
Our neighbors to the north up in
the windy town of Skagway recently
went out and in a few hours raised
enough money to build a sampling
mill for the testing of ores. If our
people had been wide awake instead
of sleeping at the post this might
have been done here. ? Haines Pioneer
