ALASKA SOVIET GOVERNMENT
---
Alaska is attempting to break from
the United States, after fifty years un
der the stars and stripes, and that
Territory now wishes to reunite with
Russia with the soviet form of gov
ernment. the people of Bolshevikiland j
<t.re informed by special dispatches
eminating from the Lenine-Trotzky
propaganda bureau at Moscow.
To the average Alaskan, healthy *
and openminded this appears like a I
splendid joke. But it is more, for it |
at least shows the ambition of the '
Bed rule, possibly encouraged by
false reports from America, an ambi
tion which is so remotely possible
that it is in no way a menace, but
which should be stamped out, never
theless.
When one discovers an organic ill,
he takes steps to remedy the condi
tion, and does not let it drag along
until more serious complications set
in. So with the body politic, steps
must be taken to wipe out whatever
germ of Bolshevism and sovietism that
has inifested the shores of Alaska, j
.And one of the ways to do that is to!
«lect to public office only such men'
a» have demonstrated beyond Question j
that they are 100 per cent Ameri-:
•ABA.
Another step that should be taken;
is for every loyal American to take
it upon himself to report to the auth
orities any overtures or propaganda
that are spread, or any disloyal ut
terances that may be made by those '
whose interests do not run along i
lines parallel with the constitution of
*he United States. Ketchikan Chron

"Another one of them things,” an
effort on the part of the prohibition

or selling "something just as good
was staged at the commissioner’s
court room at Fairbanks this week,
and ended as usual. The jury found
a verdict of "not guilty” in time to
render it. take their discharge and
beat the curious spectators out of the j
courtroom. Fairbanks News Miner.

.1. J. Underwood, one of the W ishing
toa correspondents of the Seattle
Times, thinks the bill providing the
tax of $10 an ounce on gold used in
the arts and manufactures, the pro
ceeds to go to the producers of gold,
will become a law and that it will
cause a boom in Alaska mining.- Ju
neau Empire.
Real estate men and other heavy
property owners have estimated that
tally one hundred houses are needed
in Ketchikan to meet the demands
today and more will be sought later.
Every boat that comes to town sees
a number of people arriving and
walking the streets for days in search
of places to put their families.—
Ketchikan Chronicle.
The press dispatches have con
tained items regarding a naval base
in Alaska. Don’t confuse this with
a coaling base. The coaling base with
hunkers has practically been selocted
for Seward, and has been for the past
five years. The supply base and the
naval base have not yet been selected
as stated by Secretary Daniels. The
naval base means iriachine shops, dry
docks, etc. The naval base in Alaska,
when finally selected, will mean that
possibly several thousand men will be
quickly assembled and work started.
Perhaps Resurrection Bay may be se
lected for the naval base, as well as
the coaling base.—Seward Gateway.
