THE Pltl'IH-: IN THE PEW.
An advertisement of a motion
picture show in a southeastern Al
askan paper displays the notice of ^
“Damaged Goods", which was pic- |
turized for the entertainment of
I hose who like to enjoy the salaci-,
ous features of the screen now and .
then. I
This play has a moral lesson of
peculiar value, but when commerce
enters into the movie and such plays
are screened we can be very wel.
certain that the original moral pur- |
pose of the play or the novel, is al
most masked in the leg and arm el
cetera show which the pictures will
provide.
In the display advertisement re
ferred to, the management says “all
under sixteen should not attend" and
“positively they will not be admitted
unless with parents”.
Within a reasonable degree, a
warning of that kind ought to fill
the theater. Let the public fully
understand that there is something
risque and doubtful or forbidden in
the play and it enjoys a crowded
house.
Just as
That is human nature,
jioon as Adam and Kve were warned
not to touch the fruit of the tor
hidden tree, whose mortal taste
brought death into this world and
all our woes", just then it became a
moral certainty that they would eat
i he apple eventually.
WOl'lJ* DKSTKOV THKM.
That there, have been for some
time a number of freethinking and
agnostic societies exceedingly active
in the United States for the past
few years is without doubt correct.
Their activities have alarmed many
of the churches and one of them
through its organ expresses the be
lief that such societies should be le
gislated out ot' existence.
Apart altogether from the prob
able invalidity of such a law, it may
be pointed out that it would appeal
not to be altogether the fault of the
freethinkers if the organized
churches fare ill. The arguments
that the former will set up are
based upon the facts of those
churches and the fruit of their orga
gized existence.
It is generally when the opposi
tion cannot be overcome by reason
and by argument that there is talk
trom the more powerful of suppres
sive legislation.
It is not unlikely that the evan
gelistic churches basing their posi
tion on a dilution of radicalism and
rationalism do not like it when
others pursue rationalistic methods
to their logical conclusion.
After all it is very hard tor a
church which pretends to bass its
position upon reasonable concepts,
to uphold the peculiarities of a re
ligion exemplified liy Billy Sunday.
AGAINST THK KAISKIl.
This paper does not share the
notion that the Kaiser was respons
ible for the Great War in Kurope.
Circumstances which were greater
than the Kaiser had built up a party
in Germany, just as they had built
up a party in Great Britain and in
France and Russia which made wat
inevitable.
The Kaiser was a war lord, which
is the easiest role of all to fill dur
ing times of peace. And there have
been war lords in every land.
Yet facts are. not wanting which
tend to show that the German Kais
er was by no means willing to un
sheathe the sword but was compel
led to do so by a ctass of men whe
made a god of Imperialism.
"Germany over all" was not a
musical slogan monopolized by the
Kaiser. It was surprisingly gen
eral. And not a few of the ad
dresses of even the social-demo
crats were not free from the idea
involved therein.
That in the ^C’ert of a revolt the
Kaiser will be the scape goat of the
entire junker class without the jun
ker class suffering in the general
disturbance does not seem possible..
That peace and not the sworci
will prevail even with the elimina
tion of the Kaiser is a matter upon j
which doubt may be expressed. Ra
dical changes in other lands than
Germany are scheduled to take
place before peace will permanently
reside upon Mother ISarth.
NIPPED IN THE HI D.
It is gratifying to know that in
the beginning at any rate the Pad
gett resolution which made for in
dustrial conscription in munition
and other factories, navy yards etc.,
prohibited all union labor activities
therein and abolish the eight
hour day wholly, was nipped in the
bud.
Vet that the war should no used
as a means of crushing organized
labor by the political representa
tives of organized capital might
have been expected. Nor will it be
given up because the first effort
proved a failure.
Now with much flag waving and
other cloaking of anti-social effort
the organized plunderbund will en
deavor to commercialize ts patriot
ism to the end that all may be sub
ject to suspicion but itself.
It is interesting to remark that
these l’adgetts so far have not in
haled the notion of conscripting
wealth although why they should
consder inanimate wealth more
sacred than the animate person and
animated labor is more than one
can tell.
These are the men who bring their
essentially class patriotism into the
bad reputation among all, and usu
ally erd by disgusting the workers
to such a degree that the lines ot
class cleavage widen instead of
lessen even during a national crisis.
They spell their own ultimate
doom.
THK APPROPRIATION'S.
Allan's memorial to Congress lor
the construction of a trunk line
from Nome to Candle can do no
harm. It is not likely .o do much
good.
These are days of war's alarums
and when the tocsin rings the pork
barrel has to he forgotten.
Our own ilttlc chunks of the pig
flesh which in more peaceful times
might have been allotted here re- j
ceive no attention now- and fhe fate
of the Snake Uivor Harbor and
other incidentals which might have
scattered a payroll in this neck of
the woods, is likely to be short and
sharp.
"HOW NOT TO BO IT.”
Andrew Furuseth. president of
the International Seamen’s union,
now protests to Congress that the
language and standard of skill
clauses of the seamen's act have
been practically nullified by certain
rulings of the federal department
of commerce. Not only are ships
engaged in foreign trade manned by
crews in violation of the language
test prescribed by the act. but the
same is also true of ships solely
engaged in coastwise trade. “Con
ditions in tills respect” says Furu
seth, ‘‘are even worse than before
the passage of the act.” As it took
Andrew about twenty years to lobby
this precious act through Congress,
and the result to the seaman is, “in
this respect even worse than before
the passage of the act,” wre suggest
that he spend another twenty years
or so in trying to induce Congress
to remedy the defect. In makng
this suggestion we are actuated by
the hope that another twenty years
of efTort along such promising and
fruitful lines may complete An
drew's education in the profound
science of how not to do it.—B. C.
