RAPS TIfE SEATTLE TIMES
One of our Seattle readers has
sent us a copy of the Seattle Times
of August 10, containing a front
page editorial, evidently from the
fevered pen or typewriter of the
owner, practically admitting that
Seattle has gone to the dogs and
that all that can be done to bring
prosperity back is to concentrate
upon the business of selling its “cli
matic and scenic advantages." We!
assume that somewhere in the ruins
of this story of blasted hopes and
interred war babies the much boast
ed “Seattle Spirit" lies greviously,
if not mortally, wounded.
If our memory serves us right,
this is the same ultra-cautious (?)
Seattle publication that, in defer
ence to the demands of investment
bankers, refuses to accept mining
or oil advertisements and rabidly
endorses any old “blue-sky” bill
that comes along with each recurr
ing legislative unpleasantness. We
respectfully propound this question
to the doughty colonel, who swings
his swivel ohair to the rear: “If
the ‘Seattle Spirit’ had pervaded the
cities of Spokane, Butte, Salt Lake
and Denver, during these last thirty
.years, what percentage of their
assessed valuations, as they stand
today, would have been attained
by the Seattle Times’ attitude to
wards development of natural re
sources?”
As a matter of fact, much of the
trouble now faced by Seattle is due
to the p :licy assumed dy the Seat
tle Times. In a country crying for
development of natural resources
it has gone out of its way to hinder
constructive effort by placing the
| legitimate promoter in the class of
the dishonest and untrustworthy.
With the wonderful resources of Al
aska at its very back door, the Se
attle Times has made an enemy of
' practically every mining man in
the territory and that enmity has
natura'ly extended to Seattle as a
city. Climate and scenery are ell
very well—if Seattle had a monop
oly in any sense. But it has not,
as it will quickly find if the Colon
el’s suggestion be adopted. Better
by far profit by the monopoly that
has been given by the Creator.
Boost for Alaska and the great
natural resources of the Notthwest.
Then prosperity, not war-swollen,
but peace-permanent, will be coax
ed back to the Queen City of the
West, now trailing her colors in the
dust, if the Times is to be believed.
Climate and scenery) My, my,
what a fall from proud estatel—
Ndtthwtst Mining Truthi
We have noticed a peculiar phe*1
nomenon of Nature in Hyder of
which close observers in other
parts of the world have perhaps
taken cognizance. The silly awss
of a tide, aftti taking the trouble
to come ip, turns right Toynd and
goes out again.
Chicago woman committed suicide
because of the heat. Wonder if she
went to a cooler climate.

But they oome high—
