TORIES AND SIHISTER MOTIVES
The average Alaskan lory takes it
for granted that every man has a sinis
ter motive for everything he does. He
eliminates devotion to principle, patriot
ism and all the civic virtues in ever;
hase of every discussion he enters.
Having sold his Americanism (or a
price he 1s constantly seeking something
upon which to rest the charge of,
1 'you're another."
Whenever one of these lories has
been pressed to the wall for the
work of an adequate
defense the advocates of territorial
govrnment to be talking for"an office."
It counts for nothing that moat of the
actiue toriea are office holders, ex-office
holders or would-be-office holders.
They admit their perfidy and, like as
with all harpies who are preying on |
mankind in various ways, they justify!
their degradation by attempting to I
prove that all men are degraded.
Just for a minute let us look at the
liat of the rory leaders in Southeastern!
Alaska:
First, there Is Capt. D. H. Jarvls, who
resigned from the collectorsbip of
A!aakan customs to become the head of
John Roeene's Washington lobby at *
large salary-reputed to oe flO.OOOor
>12, (XX) a year, plus.
Second, there i? Gov. Hoggatt, an
office-holder, by appointment.
Third, there is Assistant-District
Attorney George Irving, chairman of
the republican territorial committee, an
office-holder. I
Fourth, there Is ex-court stenogra- 1
pher Walter Coutent, secretary of the j
republican committee, only rec?ntly I
kicked out .of an office.
Fifth, there is the man who wrote the |
tory platform for Alaska, Marshal
Shoup, an office-holder, who refused lo
run for delegate when bediscoverd that
he was already defeated before the j
campaign had fairly begun.
. But let-it not be understood that the
Daily Alaskan is contending that ail the
federal office-holders of AlMka are
trying to gag the Alaskan people.
They are aot. Most of them are at- I
tending to their official duties as faith- 1
ful officers should. When they express j
their opinions they are on the side of
American Ideals. Nor let it be under
stood that the Daily Alaakan holds
office-holding to be against a man. It
Is the office-holder that prostitutes bis
office that is not a good citUen. Most
of the Alaskan officials are not prosti
tuting their officies.
Tories are not numerous among fed
eral office-holders or any other claas in
Aiaska. They are not dangerous on ac
count of their numbers or influence at
home. They are dangerous only be
eause they are using ill-gotted
"influence" at Washington to Ignoble
purposes.
TO PRESERVE SAINTON ISA
Salton sea, the body of water that)
was formed by the Colorado river J
overflowing into Salton sink in the
Imperial vslley of southern California,
will be preserved. The presence of
water in the center of what was an
arid desert before the introduction of
irrigaton ditches has brought an
abundant supply of rain and made to
blossom as a rose, that great valley
part of which engineers have been un
able to devise plans to furnish with
water.
Salton sea is 400equare miles In area.
Ita depth averages from 12 feet to 120
feet. Ita surface la aboot 200 feet
below sea level.
The sea is the outcome of the turning
of the Colorado river, |in obedience to
the laws of gravity, !nto an irrigation
ditoh designed to provide water for the
Imperial valley The waahlng of the
river enlarged the ditch until the
course of the Colorado ?as entirely di
verted from the Ciulf of California to
Salton sin*, where it flowed for month*
before the railroads and other* intereat
ed succeeded In turning it back Into |ita
bed. The cost of the "miuaice"waa $1,
000,000, but It hu proved to be an "111
wind" that has blown much good <o
the ownar* of hundreds of thouaands of
acres of rich land that only esedad
water to hmUm It pcodaoHve.
The real hero is the man who does hi
duty like.* man every day in the year.
Moat men are brave and noble iu oases
of great emergency. Imminent dinger
or great orisises of any nature have a
tendency to excite the nobler impulse*
la a mac if he has any nobility in him.
It is different In the humdrum affairs of
life. The man who can cleary distin
gulah between right and wrong and do
his duty as be lives from day to day is
the prize citizen and the greatest hero
we have.
A school for the puopose of teaching
tbe art of love making is to be establish
ed at Philadelphia. The announce
ment is said to have caused many old
beaux whose lines have fallen in hard
place* to apply for positions on the
faculty.
