SHADES OF W. JENNINGS BRYAN
We desire to express our keenest
sympathy of lifelong Democrats who
are being “propagandized” out of
their ancient, basic principles. It is
sad to see them succumbing to the
autocratic ambitions of the man who
wanted the world made safe for de
mocracy. It is a distressful thought
that perhaps he did not so much care
to make the world safe for democracy
as to make his own country safe for
the Democratic party—with T. Wood
row Wilson at its head.
A lifelong Missouri Democrat, than
whom, to employ the words of one
of our current humorists, there is
none “than whomer,” has made the
marvelous and exhilarating discovery
that even Republicans are demanding
a third term for Wilson. A perigrina
ceous correspondent reached up and
dragged this Democrat down of his
cloudland of dreams and asked him
how Wilson was regarded thereabouts.
And this is what he mild madman re
plied :
"You can rest assured of one thing
and that is that not only the Demo
crats of southeast Missouri, but more
than 50 per cent of the Republicans
stand right square behind the presi
dent and are clamoring every day for
him to run for a third term.”
The correspondent says that as an
chairman”—for it was none other than
afterthought this "particular county
Democrat, 1 do not think thin In beat."
To think that zealots who once
knelt at the resounding shrine of Will
iam Jennings Bryan and wore out
their knees on his rough platforms
should now be demanding a third
term for anybody! Bryan was the
$ fiery evangelist of the single term, for
that was all he wanted, and his fol
lowers agreed that anyone who dis
agreed with him was a lost soul try
ing to drag the country down to low
est possible pits of perdition.
This “particular county chair
man” has fallen so low in the direc
tion of those pits, after posing on the
purified and ratified heights of Bryan
ism for many years, that it occurs to
him only as an “afterthought” that he
ought to be against—not a second
term—but a third term. So debased
and brutalized by his mad plunge
from the aetherial peaks of idealism
has he become that af second term
-> _x_1 : I : i ii nnhlnv
UUUO UVI< >■** - ~ x
mis of his conscience, which is agitat
ed only by the thought of a third
term and then so gently that he hard
ly heeds the disturbance. So lost to
all sense of upright Braynism Is he in
his days of Wilsonism that he even
tries to inculpate innocent Missouri
Republicans, who do not know what
horrible charge he is bringing against
them in his confabs with a vagrant
journalist.
What a wonderful propaganda in
this that can make one-termer Demo
crats turn right around and demand
three terms for their revered leader
and chronic candidate!
Alaskans should worry about tine re
ceipt of bombs in their mail. The
post office department has made the
country practically bombproof by in
jecting into our mail service a very
generous portion of time between
points of dispatch and points of de
livery. An Alaska-bound bomb would
age itself out of business long before
reaching an intended victim .in this
country.—Nenana News.
The fishermen are to be congratulat
ed on the manner in which they con
ducted their strike. Their only
weapon was that of reason and argn
nient and they employed them well.
During the strike, Ketchikan suffered
to the extent of approximately $20.
v 000, hut now that the difficulties are
strightened out, it is to be hoped that
it will be able to make up the loss
before the end of the season.—Ketchi
