ROOSEVELT AN
AMERICAN ON
ALLOCCASIONS
Some of the children who are can
vassing for the Roosevelt memorial
report that they run across certain in
dividuals in town who refuse to sub
scribe to the fund because they are
Democrats.
We did not suppose there was such
a narrow-minded creature in the terri
tory. We make the assertion that they
are neither good Americans nor good
Alaskans. A good American believes
in the square deal. He believes every
man and every woman has a right to
his own or her own religious and po
litical opinions. A good Alaskan is
simply a good American—nothing
more nor less.
Roosevelt believed and taught all
of this, and lived up to it. While he
belonged to the Republican party be
cause he believed in some of the eco
nomic principles it stood for, every
one who is at all familiar with the
history of this country for the past
thirty-five years knows that he fought
Republicans as often, or perhaps more
frequently, than he did Democrats.
From the day he entered the New
York assembly, when he was 23 years
old, to the day of his death he fought
the rotten political manipulators of
his own party as hard as he did that
of the opposition. He hated sham and
hypocrisy, hut loved the truth.
These are the qualities we wish to
keep before the youth of the.land. It
is to these and other qualities we are
erecting a monument, and not because
he was a Republican in politics.
Broad-minded men and women of
all parties are taking active part in
raising this fund and directing the as
sociation, and it seems a pity that j
here in Cordova we should find a per
son with such narrow, contracted
views as to raise the question.
If you don't feel you can afford to,
or don't want to give anything, simply
say so, but please don’t expose your
pygmy brain by adding it is. because
you are a Democrat, because that a
dirty slam on democracy.
Dr. L. Von Zesch has returned.

RELIGION
IS POWER
_
BELT UP
your life, time and talents to the
church of God, the greatest of all
earthly Institutions. The church is
“belted up” to God's power house,
hence its unlimited power. The church
is the parent of our schools, philan
thropic institutions, hospitals, and all
social uplift organizations; the inspi
ration of art, music and literature. She
is the keystone of civilization. With
out her wholesome, uplifting power
and influence society would quickly re
turn to a state of anarchy and bar
barism. To get the best out of life
“belt up” to the church of the Lord
Jesus Christ and attend the services
at the
