CHURCH SHOULD RETIRE FROM
PRACTICAL POLITICS
The Preebyterian church of Wash
ington and Alaska could WJ well b? in
better business than thst of defending
the political career of the notorious
Sheldon Jackson; or than that of call
ing those almost innumerable citizens
of Alaska, who hare pointed out his of
ficial delinquencies, "grafting politi
cians." The telegraphic account of the
action of that Walla Walla synod reads
a great deal like a "whitewashing"
stunt by a political ring convention.
The charges against Sheldon Jack
son have been made by the best people
of Alaska. Miners, merchants, profes
sions! men, missionaries, trappers,
hunter*? men who have lived in Alas
ka and watched the workings of Jack
son and his agents for years? have com
plained, yet a few Washington state
preachers who have never been in
Alaska resolve that they a:e all "graft
ing politicians." The synod gives as
evidence of its knowledge of its sub
ject the statement that a committee
has been Investigating for a "month."
And it has the hardihood to send * copy
of its resolution to President Roosevelt:
If the Presbyterian church would not
impair its usefullness it should get out
of "practical politics.'* Many of its
missionaries in in Alaska realize this
very well.
