WILSON IS TROUBLESOME
There are stand pat Democratic
organs iu the h'ast and West which
at first, hailed the probable candidacy
of Wood row Wilson for the Presiden
cy with glad acclaim, but are now be
ginning to hedge and trim because
that same Woodrow Wilsou appears
not to be the sort of a Democrat
they thought him to be.
Governor Wilson has said that the
country is suffering from the plot ti ass
of a money trust, and by all the ten
ets of reactionary standpatism, whe
ther they be Democratic or Republi
can, that is heresy ? rank heresy.
Aside from this declaration, there are
other evidences of unsoundness.
There are those crotchets of the in
itiative aud referendum and the recai^
the leaning toward commission goveia
ment for cities, the pronounced be
lief that in. all fields of the govern
ment the people axe beginning to
kuou what they want aud to under
stand how to get it, while to all of
which is added that more dangerous
doctrine that the people are intelli
gent enough, if need be, to make
their own laws and manage their own
affairs. For Simon-pure Democracy
of the old school this will never do.
Hut these party alarmists may just
as well possess their souls in peace.
The people, East and West, have met
l>r. Wilson face to face. They have
heard him talk and have taken his
measure as a man of sincerity, hon
esty aud capacity in political thinking
They have his record as Governor of
New Jersey, as an earnest of what
he can do in political action. So far
as Democracy will suit at all, his
particular brand rings true," and he
gains strength rather than weakness
by the criticism and opposition of
his party brethren who stand iu re
actionary ranks.
Touching the matter of a money
trust. Governor Wilson speaks of that
which is obvious to many people.
ProgTess in Republican ranks must re<
cognize it or the Republican cause
will suffer for it. ? Portland Telegram.

WELL PLEASED
While debating the tourist business
of the past two months, H. D. Kirmse
who is probably in a better position
to judge than any of the business
men of Skagway, expressed his views
of the matter in the presence of a
representative of the Daily Alaskan
as follows: ?
"It is largely up to the merchant
whether he will have a good season
or noL The past season with me has
been one of the best I ever had, and
1 attribute it to the fact that I have
'had the goods,' for all tourists 'must
be from Missouri and they must be
shown.' so 1 have been able to show
them.
"I have made a study of the tourist
trade, and in my selection of goods
for this summer's business, 1 used
the utmost care and thought Not
alone in the nugget jewelry line, but
in the other linee of curios which I
have had on display have I lost sight
of the fact that what the visitors
wanted was something typical of Al
aska and the Northland, and some
thing "different" That I was right
when I made my stock of nugget jew
elry and souvenir goods is evidenced
each time a party of 'cheechaco?' en
ter my store. All are loud in their
praise and express their surprise at
such a store and stock being in Skag
way.
"Yes, this is one of the most suc
cessful seasons I have ever had, and
1 attribute It all to the appropriate
ness of my stock."
