A HEAR! TO HEART TALK
Harking* back to the old days we re
call several instances when the good
people of Nome were amused and of
ten annoyed by the froth
ing utterances of the evening sheet.
The drivelling exudations of its daily
spasms became so nauseating at one
time as to attrect the attention of a
neighboring scribe, who inspired by
Charity and Kindness and a keen re
gard for the community’s literary ap
petite, proceeded to renovate his broth
er’s sanctum. This he did most effect,
ur.lly and by his facile pen estab
lished in “Newspaper Row” a stand
ard of respect and decency.
The evening journalistic craft was
forced to an anchorage in clean writers.
There it remained until recently—
-sometimes leaning to Starboard .and
sometimes to Port, with its nose* al
ways pointing toward the glittering
peaks of Sordid Pelf. Hut now it has
slipped its moorings, and it is darkly
hinted that a piratical crew of political
swashbucklers are on the bridge, led
by Count Mnzumu. who with the Wiok
ershami chart have steered the lumber
ing hulk into the slimy slough of vini
fication. misrepresentation and vitu
peration. Moreover they are throwing
ovr« rboard the Guano Cargo and it is
being promiscuously and surentitously
scattered in the form of EXTRA
t'OplKS of tlu' Daily Joke, throughout
our fair city.
But to recur for a moment to the
editorial lunacy of Ihe Nugget and its
screeming political propaganda. Has
anyone been able to determine the
source and inspirations of the recent
upasans? We know of none. The*
same tenor, the same trend, and the
same old stock phrases as in the days
of yore. The ear marks of the upper
story are unmistakable. His last out
burst is a thing of beauty and a joy
forever. We Quote: “The gang is out
to rule and neither reputation or any-;
thing else is entirely safe." Think ofi
it good people— -there arc other char- i
acter assassins in Nome besides the
Nugget, But hark ye- the Nugget, has1
reformed—listen to i’ f , a n of
new found faith. “We n:v against dirty j
politics and gang rule, on principal."1
Ye Gods! What profound logic a sign I
ol' deep repentance. What a great
comfort to know that the Daily Joke of
Front Street has at last experienced aj
change of heart and is now guided by ;
Principle. What a disappointment—!
to the few w ho at times indulge in an !
intellectual debauch by reading the ^
Nugget.
If we were assured there was no;
grin on the face of the management
when this declaration of reform was
being set up w<* might believe tin
old lady of Front Street was really re
pentant.
There are two things of which the!
Nugget feels absolutely certain. First:
That John Franklin Alexander Strong
is a saintly character, and not an I
Hien. Second: That Wlckcrsham’s
greatest friend is Maloney. i
When it tackles political problems]
it wobbles in and wobbles out like an I
unhappy married man trying to find'
his way home at five o’clock in the
morning.
A great diplomat once declared that
language was ma/le to conceal thought
—but the Daily Joke employs it to
conceal an intellectual vacuum. It can
use more language to say less than any
publication on earth. In this particu
lar it resembles a cipher without a rim.
The bellowing and wailing of the
Daily Joke grows monotonous indeed.
We yearn for more of those eloquent
"SPECIALS" from Juneau that the
N'ugget used to print—tinctured with
the refreshing fragrance of the Capi
tol. Has the Juneau Dispatch aban
doned our erstwhile Governor in the
hour of his greatest tribulations and
has it also withdrawn from the Wick
| cisham-Maloncy Combination? Por
j haps the Wickersliam organ in Juneau,
i the Dispatch, has discovered that the
Maloney-Wickershum combination has
for its basis, the prestage of an AMEN
GOVERNOR and so has fallen with
the ruins.
We hope the defenders of charactorj
jand reputations—the Daily Joke—will
endeavor to give us some real sub
stantial election dope. We suggest they
wire Secretary Lane, and get informa
tion at first hand and thus smother
the “vile assassins” with their own
guilt. "By Heck” if the Nugget cares
to gain the “knowledge of the truth, or
falsity of the charges made" it can
readily do so by spending some of its
campaign ducats in a wire to Washing
ton.
Tile result might afford a soothing
tonic to heart-sick disciples and hard
hat politicians Truly Maloney and
Wickcrsham are indeed unfortunate in
their newspaper assets. In fact such
support as they have will damn any
politician eternally.
Sulzer’s Home Rule Bill and the
Fishing Hill have not been printed by
the Daily Joke, altho it 1ms in its pos
session copies and continues to mis
represent and prate upon those meas
ures. We challenge it to print either
or both and let the voters have the
best evidence at hand, tt dare not.
Nor will it dare publish i nthe interest
of truth and fairness, Maloney’s state
ment at Nonana, last spring, concern-I
ing the eight-licur Ir.w, condemning
it as a measure unfit for Alaska.
One of the greatest frauds of mod
ern times is the policy playing news
paper. Let a man once show this
Joke that lie feels afraid of it’s bark
and ’twill fly at his heels. I.et him
|
fearlessly face it, ’twill leave him
alone: but ’twill fawn at Ills feet—if he
flings it a bone.
