MAT IT BE TRUE
The Juneau Record -M iner. referring
to the editor of the Daily Alaskan,
whom it chares with having made a
political mistake, on account of it* at
titude in the recent election, says if be
"is so dense as to misinterpret his own
position in matters political, we can
only refer to the ancient saw about the
blisafulness of ignorance "
If the JiecorO-Mmer means by thi*
that the Daily Alarkao and those who
make it do not stand well with politi
cians who, operating from Juneau, at
tempted to run the politics of Alaska at
the recent election and who were repn I
diateii on election day by the voters of
their own town, all we have to say is
that we pray that the intimation is well
founded.
But the Daily Alsskan and those who
make it fully understand their political
position They are trying to secure
for the people of Alaska stlf-govern
ment and to serve them as best they
know how without regard to personal
politics. Twky ark not PLAY1XG
