ROOS?VELT DID IT
Before the beginning of the present
congressional campaign in the states
the Daily Alaskan predicted that if the
republicms followed the readership of
President Roosevelt closely enough
they would win, but that if they turned
him down in too many places, accepting
the leadership of the old machines,
they would lose. The election returns
justify the prediction. While Roose
velt's leaderehip was accepted reluct
antly in places and while in other places
the president stretched several points
in. taking discredited machine* under;
his mantle, before the balloting began |
every republican stump orator from
Maine to California was proclaiming
Roosevelt to be the undisputed leader
of the republican party. That proved
sufficient to hold the independent re
publicans in line. The trusts and
monied interests supported the republi
can ticket, not for love of Roosevelt
but because Bryan's speeches and the
nomination of Hearst in New York and
Moran in Massachusetts dispelled the
last hope that the democratic party
will ever be conservative. With them
it was a choice of evils and they chose
the less menacing evil.
There is no doubt but that President
Roosevelt saved the day for the repub
lican machine in Pennsylvania. When
the democrats endorsed the Lincoln re
publican nominee for governor and the
disclosures of boodling in the capital
construction were made it was evident
that the day was lost. It was only when
several cabinet officers were sent into
the state to beg for supj>ort for the
regular ticket that a sufficient number
of the republicans were brought into
line to save the day.
The condition* in Ohio, were similar
to those in Pennsj ivania. There the
Roosevelt faction was turned down in
the state convention and the leadership
of Foraker acknowledged. During the
first part of tha campaign Foraker did
sot hesitate to show his teeth toward
the president whenever possible. He
said that he was no more bound to fol
low Roosevelt when he was wrong in
matters of goverrmcntal policy than he
'was bound to misspell words because
the president misspelled them. But
tfce president overlooked the attitude
of the party in the state, and Taft was
sent there to speak for the machine
Desertions stopped, and republicans re
turned to the fold.
These instances illustrate the magic
of Roosevelt's name. Where he lead
the people were willing to follow. They
would accept Penrose and Pennypacker
and Foraker and Dick if the president
accepted them.
The lesson is obvious. If the leader
ship of President Roosevelt shall con
tinue the republicans will, in all prob
ability, carry the nest presidential
election. However, there should be no
hesitation in accepting Roosevelt's
principles and policies as well as his
personality and his support. There
should be bo more Pennsylvania an^
Ohio situations put up to him. He
shoald not be required to save the day
for too many machines. The leadership
must be acknowledge with good grace
everywhere, and it must be one in
fact as well as name, to make success
sure.
AL A SKA EDITIONS
The Post-Intelligencer and the Se
attle Times, last week presented very
creditable ^Alaskan editions.
The Post-Intelligencer edition was
prepared by Walter E. Clark, the
Washington correspondent of that
paper, who spent considerable time in
Alaska gathering statistics and other
data. It contained many Alaskan ad
vertisements. Skagway is represented
by hali page of reading matter and a
large display advertisement, portraying
the advantages of the place as a head
quarters for tourist*. The eddition is
thoroughly prepared and will add much
to the sum of the accurate information
of Alaska possessed by the readers of
the paper.
The Times' edition was prepared at i
Seattle by Alaskan people. It Is better ]
M- ?
Illustrated than is that of its comem- I
porary, and contains much interesting /
Alaskan matter.
George Ade is both polite and hum
orous. In denying a rumor that he was
engaged to marry a more less obscure
actress, he said the rumor was probably
started by someone who is tiving to
Injure the estimable younsr lady with
whom he, unfortuately, is but slightly
acquainted.
The dispatches tell us that President
Roosevelt's action in dismissing two
campanies of negro troops from the
army for refusing to divulge the names
of the murdeiersin their midst was un
precedented. So was the action of the
cooas unprectdented.
COURT WILL BE
tttRE NEXT WEEK
Judge Gunnison ha* written that the
court officials will be in Skagway on
the next trip of the Jefferson. Judge
Gunnison will be accompanied by Mrs. J
Gunnison.
