The officers and men of the Ameri
can battleship Oregon frankly admit
that they smuggled miny thousands of
dollars worth of goods into the United
States on the last trip of that vessel
from the Orient. The beneficiaries
from their acts included in addition to
themselves the families of very high
officers of both the army and the navy.
In addition to admitting' their crime
these officers and men sav with a good
deal of complacence that there wa* less
dutiable merchandise smuggled into
the country on the Oregon than has
been the case with any American man
of-war landing at San Francisco for a
long time.
Le Grande Sara has announced that
she will will visit Alaska and play at
Nome. If at Nome, why not at Fair
banks and Dawson? And if at Fair
backs and Dawson, why not at- Skag
way and other towns of southeastern
Alaska? Just make the Alaskan cir
cuit, Mme. Bernhard, and then search
for another definition of "EMTHUSI
ASTIC WELCOME!"
M. J. Heney the contractor says
the railroad that will be started from
Orca in a few weeks will b? the first
one to reach Fairbanks and have tei
mlnal* at that place, and M. J, Heney
is longer on work and doing than~on
hot air and talk.
Considering the things that have
been doing in Russia for so long a time
that was equivalent to giving Gorky a
certificate of good character in this
country when the representatives of
Russia said he is a revolutionist.
The Russian government has in
formed the American that Maiim Gor
ky is not a reformer but a revotionist.
What does Russia und<ystand to be the
difference between a a reformer and a
revolutionist?
Blowing up ships and smuggling are
not very good methods of inspiring the
American people with confidence in the
navy. In the language of the street,
"cut it out."
