OOOS nt FRATERNAL SOCITIES
The beautiful services at Elks' hall
yesterday afternoon exemplified very
clearly the good in fraternal societies?
a good which particularly marks Elk
dom.
From the beginning there has been
something of the beast iu man which
impel* him to think overmuch of self.lt
was that element which caused Cain to
deny that he was his brother's keeper.
To curb this beastiality were given the
laws of Moses and came Jesus to teach
man to do unto others ashewould that
others do unto him. As man has obeyed
these laws and accepted this teaching
as he has conquered the selfishness that
marked Cain, so has grow n civilization
Tht great fraternal societies? the
Elks, the Masons, the Odd Fellows, the
Knights of Pythias, the Maccabees,
the Eagles *nd the others? teach men
to forget self in thinking of others.
They are organised to make men under
stand the iniquity of Cain's sin. The
cornerstone of everyone of them is the
Golden Rule of the lowly Man of Naza
reth.
Opponents of secret orders have saia
that they are do'ng work that the
Church should do. Perhaps! But they
are reaching men and enlisting them
in the wornjhumaniiing the world that
the Church does not reach. Through
them men who are not concerned with
the dogma of theology can assist to make
men better and the world a more desire
able abiding place. They assist the
Church in promulgating practical
Christianity.
In the beginning we said that this
?toing good? this regard of fe'.lowman?
!s a particularly marked feature of
Elkdom, and it is true. Giving alms is
not all that the right hand of thi-5 order
doe* that is unknown of the left. There
are pledges taken by all Elks and law
and precept kept by them of which the
world hears little but which count for
the good of the world and the sum of
its happiness? and then there is
that insistance upon adherence to the
order's maxim "to write the faults of a
brother upon the sand, his virtures
upon the tablets of love and memory"
which protects the good name which the
poet valued so much greater than his
purse, and which deals death to cynic
ism snd makes pessimists to become
optimists.

ALASKA AND THE PRESIDENT,
The Ketchikan Journal, with a syco
phantic, servile smack, discusse* the
telegraphic reports thit President
Roosevelt will oppose self government
?
for Alaska a* though that forever
settles the right or wrong of the whole
matter. It asaumes.with a slavish self
abnegation t lat is entirely unbecoming
citizenship in a republic, ant] such as
President Roosevelt, as a citizen, would
be the last man on earth to assume,
that no man dare dispute the wisdom of
what the president says, no matter
what his been his opportunity to in
form himself of the facts in relation to
the subject he discusses. Its attitude is
that of the monarchist who recognizes
the divine right of kings.
The fact of the matter is, and every
body knows it, that President Roose
velt knows nothing of Alaska except
what he has been told. His declaration
against self-government for this district
was dictated by men who have gained
his confidence in one *iy and an other
and who hold it by pretending to him
that they are serving the people of this
district instead of their own selfish
purposes. They are men who have lied
to him as they have lied in public
addresses and in servient newspapers
which do their bidding.
The Daily Alaskan still believe that
when the representatives of t&e people
of Alaska talk with Presidet Rw?evelt
and explain to him the sentiment of the
people of this district and the manner
in which they have expressed them
selves at the American court of last ap
peal?the ballot box? that he will, like
as have the people of Alaska, repudi
ate those those who have assumed to
dictate in Alaskan affairs.
John A. Johnson, governor of
Minnesota, just elected for the second
term may be urg-ed (or the democratic
presidential nomination. He baa had a
career that appeals to the imagination
and takes hold of the affections. He
is the son of a Swedish washer- woman;
he supported his worse than widowed
mother and several brothers and sisters
at 14: quit a position in a store to be*
come a newspaper editor and printer:
went to the laglsUture and developed
into a powerful and magnetic orator.
In addition to this he has
made a record for integrity and honesty
and moral courage in business, politics
and every day affairs of life that is a
bulwark of stiength. He attracted at
tention in his state as a campaigner on
the stump for William J. Bryan and
| former Gov. Lind. He is still young ?
younger than President Roosevelt.
SWASHM"
A Good Lack Charm For
Sfeagway Ltdies
The Swastika is the oldest cross, and
the oldest symbol in the world.
Of unknown origin, in frequent use
in prehistoric times, it historically first
appeared on coins, as early as the year
315 B. C.
The ancients were great astronomers
and It doubtless served as a calender to
them. It has been found in our Indian
Rugs and in the baskets of the Alassa
Indians. It makes a very pretty orna
ment and one beaten out of silver coin
by a native silversmith will doubtless
come as near bringing good luck to the
wearer.
Tky Swastika has been discovered on
this continent among the ruins ol Mex
ico and central America, and is at the
present time, frequently used by the
Indians of Alaska as an ornament and !
amulet.
Found among the relics of all age>
and peoples, from time immemorial tht
Swastika has been considered as a talis
man: a cbarm, to drive away evil, and
bring good luck. long life and prosperity
to the wearer.
