IS SEATTLE AFTER PIONEERS?
The complaint of the Nome Igloo,
Pioneers of Alaska, should receive the
attention of the local Pioneers at
theii next meeting, and close atten
tion should be given the premises
It will be no trouble to remember
how Seattle killed the Arctic Brother
hood of Alaska, which is only a name
in Alaska now. Seattle-Alaskans
grabbed it and its annual meetings
and grafted them into Seattle, and
whenever a man like President Taft,
who never saw Alaska, came along,
they made him an Arctic Brother.
They had all Alaska camps paying tri
bute to Seattle and sending money to
Seattle and the Sound to hold A. B.
conventions there, until the Brother
hood became such a chee-chaco affair
that Alaskans wouldn’t wear its but
ton or belong to it.
They did the same thing, practic
ally, to the Yukon Pioneers—the Daw
son lodge is all that seems to be left
of the Y. O. O. P., and Seattle is the
annual meeting place of the order.
What the Grand Igloo has done in this
we don’t know, but it has evidently
provided for making pioneers of men
who are not, and whether it is worm
ing Seattlewards and to Seattle’s
benefit should be looked in to, in the
interests of the life of the order.
Also, wre hear many bad reports of
the Sitka Pioneers’ Home. Why not
have a home run by Pioneers with a
Pioneer in charge? The old boys
certainly deserve that consideration.

Another light fall of “boo’ful” snow
this morning.
Speaking of the willful twelve, what
about the bullheaded One?
Every little movement now seems to
want a party all its own.
Mr. Wilson thinks it- is all his golf
game, and the cabinet members are
his caddies.
t
The people seem to be satisfied to
« #
give the League of Nations covenant
an Americanizing or give it death.

One thing we can do to Germany,
maybe, when the treaty is revised, is
to wish our wooden ships on her.
All of the brilliancy in Alaska news
paperdom is centered in Juneau—if
you are not particular as to the brand.

You can come about as near telling
what is going to happen in Europe
next year with a ouija board as you
can in any other way.

There is considerable satisfaction in
knowing that Cordova has a most ef
ficient staff of school teachers, whose
work is equally appreciated by parent
and pupil.
It’s hard to tell which is the worse
frightened for fear the presidential
nomination will get him—William Jen
nings Bryan or William Randolph
Hearst.
One of the attributes of real great
ness is humility. The political leader
who reveals the exaggerated ego
should be avoided by the people as a
false alarm.
The results of the municipal elec
tions in the different Alaska towns
may be a forerunner of what is going
to happen at the territorial primaries
on Tuesday, April 27.
Senator Hitchcock would makje a
pretty good rubber stamp candidate
for President, but what would the man
do if he were elected and his control
should cease working?
Attorney General Palmer’s scheme
of stopping the high cost of living by
I
* .
talking it to death seems to be work
ing about like all the other adminis
tration remedies for what ails us.
Necessity has driven the Bolsheviki
to pass laws conscripting labor, with
compensation based on service and
without uniform limitation of hours.
That government is going to lose some
of its popularity with the sons of rest.
One of the things tnat is the matter
with the country is that the people
took the magazine muckrakers, uplift
ers and reformers too seriously, and
have been experiencing the results.
Yet this outfit is still busily engaged in
telling the people what to do.
Sam Blythe says politics is rotten
If Sam is speaking of the politics of
the administration he and other Wil
son press agents helped shove over
on the country he is right, but, curi
ously enough, the statement is made
as part of a campaign to perpetuate
some of the loud smells which these
very press agents advertised as politi
cal attar of roses.
Politics in a representative republic
is the determination of public ques
tions in the forum of public opinion.
The biggest menace to good govern
ment is the holier-than-thou hypocrite
who refuses to take a hand in politics
on the theory that participation in it
might soil his immaculate person, and
who, nevertheless, is always criticiz
ing the evils that inevitably follow the
the indifference and aloofness of citi
zenship.

You a Cigar We Can
Guess the Answer!
■
Think of the number of let
ters hi the name of your favorite
tobacco or cigar.
Double this number.
Add eight.'
Divide by two.
Subtract the number you
started with.
Multiply by three.
Add one.
Subtract six.
Come into the Horseshoe, and
if the man at the counter can
not tell you the correct answer
he will treat you to a cigar.
We are as certain of the su
perior quality of our cigars and
tobacco as we are of solving
this problem.
