awakening of the syndicate
Thia paper is iu receipt of a letter
front "Leslie* Weekly," in which
we are inform**] that a series of art
ides, written by Robert D. Heinl,
will shortly begin appearing in, that
magazine.
We are also informed that the vast
amount of muck-raking which has
been going on about Alaska matters
in geeral, will be dealt with by a
man, who is wgll fitted for the work
in hand inasmuch as he has "toured"
Alaska for the sole purpose of "AC
QUAINTING HIMSELF WITH OUR
CONDITIONS," the better to deal
fairly with his subject.
If Mr. "Bob" Heinl has gone no
farther into the matters Alaskan in
other districts at which he touched,
than he did in matters Skagwayan
we fear very much that "Bob" had
his artcile written for him and ready
for press before he left good old
Fifth Avenue.
Little can be learned of the needs
of this country from a "hopskip-and
jump" trip such as he lately made to
this vast territory, and at that, he
only touched the very beginning of
the territory ? in very few instances
getting out of sight of sea, and away
front, the smell of salt air.
This following paragraph, taken
from an editorial of the Seattle Daily
Times is the fertilizer which raised
our doubts that .Mr. .Heinl will deal
fairly with even that which he saw
ami learned:
"Colonel Sleicher (editor of Leslie's
Weekly) gets the facts at first hand.
Under bis direction Leslie's is en
titled to the credit of being the real
"National Weekly," although the un
speakable Collier's ? shallow, preten
tious and brazen in effrontry ? has
taken that title unto itself. There
have been nunireous disquisitions on
"the truth about Alaska." The read
ing public may rest assured that
"Bob" Heinl will find the truth ? anu
that Leslie's will print it."
Is it that the Alaska Syndicate has
awakened from ita short sleep, and
sees the need of getting busy e're
this vast domain slips from ita grasp
forever, and the people come into
their own? ? Was it a wise move on
the Syndicates part' to lay dormant
even for a" few short months and al
low all this "muck-raking" to go un
answered? Was it a wise move on
the Syndicate's part to put off until
this late date paying some such paper
as Leslie's to get into the arena and
fight for it? Was this all brought
about by the Syndicate's seeing the
handwriting on the wall?
So we say, go to it, "Bob" Heinl,
We may be wrong, but we will tell
better after we see your "Truths
about Alaska."
In the meantime Canadians will
have an opportunity to reflect upon
what they have missed by rejecting
reciprocity and they will also do soma
hearts earthing as to why they reject
ed it. They will see the tariff re
formers in the United States demand
ing that which was to hare been giv
en to Canada alone, be given to all
the world and that Canadian products
instead of having a preference in
the American markets will be likely
to have access only in competition
with the world.
Meantime too, the Liberal party
profiting by its lesson will get busy
and complete an efficient organization
There is no doubt in the world tha,t
lack of organization had as much to
do with their defeat as anything else
Instead of lying down in the face of
it they must get together and mend
their fences and get ready for the
next contest which cannot be much
farther away than a couple of years,
if that long? B. C. Saturday Sunset.
