100 PERCENT AMERICANS.
The organization of people <
Alaska who believe in the perpeti
ation of American institutions i
Juneau, Anchorage, and Ketchika
cannot fail to give greater sen:
of security to the people of ti
Territory, believes the Alaska Dai
Empire (Juneau). The activity <
radical I. W. W. agitators in th
Northland within the last fe
months has made organization
behalf of real Americanism nece
sary. These radicals have capture
several of the labor unions of ti
Territory, and they had set out 1
capture the industries and busine:
institutions of the North. The Con
mure element dominated the recei
convention in Juneau, and adopte
a constitution for submission to th
members of the Alaska Labor unio
which is plainly designed to tak
the industries of Alaska away fro:
the owners and to capture the Go'
ernment of the Territory. The
have been persistently circulatin
I. W. W. papers which proclaim th
Government of The United States i
a covenant with the devil and ura
the use of the genera! strike as
means of force to gain control c
industries and government by th
radical leaders.
If anything were needed beyon
things that have taken place with:
our own Territory to demonstrai
the menace of this sort of leade
ship, it was furnished by the atr
cious murders that were committt
on Armistice Day and since the
Violence is the legitimate proger
of the revolutionary doctrines «
the I. IV. W.. with their progTa
of hate, malice, sabotage, and eo:
fiscation.
The enthusiasm with which tl
citizens of Juneau, including wor
ingmen. are enrolling as “Amei
cans,” and the general popular:
of the movement which was start!
in this city, are the tokens that t!
people of Alaska will not perm
1. W. W. radicals and their Outsii
coaches to run this Territory. Ala
ka is American and She will rema
American to the very end. SI
will not be controlled by the Sa
yers, the Fogartys, and the Kavsei
Disloyalty and robbery' are not
favor in this Territory, no matt
what the sugar coating that may
placed upon them, or the form th'
assume. Alaskans are 100 perce
Americans. They will not pern
the destruction of Alaska.
MIDDLE CLASS.
Few forces tend so strongly
produce social consciousness as
grievance. Not so many years as
points out the New York Times, o
might have searched the world ai
found nobody who would admit th
he was of the middle class. T
term was an epithet, used in de:
sion. As the middle class w
vaguely supposed to be respeetab
respectability itself went out
fashion. Today all this is altere
People write to the papers to s
that they are of the middle clai
and they say it with the air of o
who, after all, is somebody. Y
nobody has defined the middle cla:
even the sociologists and econ
mists, whose business such thin
•are.
i In England. Mr. W. H. Mallock
f 'gave a few stray thoughts to the
■*: subject and concluded that it was
'- '■ middle class to have an income of
n some $750. Prof. H. R. Seager de
e posed that in America the figure
e, would have to be raised to $1,500.
| It was the way of the elder soci
f , ologists to write as if the determin
® ing factor is always money.
*’ ; Our common sense knows better.
n (The middle class is distinguished
’■ | from the class on its one hand by
d |the fact that it works, not with its
e ] body, but with its mind. It is dis
° jtinguished from the class on its one
f j hand by the fact that, not having
!-] sufficient capital to retire upon, it
* I has to work. The middle class man
- is a brain worker who is obliged to
e i work or go under. And he is
n obliged to conform to current stan
i
e dards of respectability, physically as
n .well as mentally and morally.
' | In the nineteenth century the in
i’ come standard had at least a shadow
c . of justification, for wages and sala
e jries still maintained some definite
? | relationship to the character of work
e I done and service rendered. Today
a we have changed all that and with
1 jone notable result. A large group
0 lof people among us have become
class conscious—those, namely, who
^ do professional work for less than
n the pay of a hand laborer. Men
- tally and morally they have two
strong props of character—the fact
that the instrument of their labor
• is the mind, and the fact that they
’• are urged on by necessity to use it.

FRENCH SOLDIERS WANT
CONTROL OF CHAMBER
PARIS. — “For new conditions,
new men,” is the rallying cry of
the former soldier element for the
forthcoming parliamentary elections.
Some of the many veteran organ
izations demand that the men who
fought the war out should, alone,
be charged with the work of recon
i struction. Others demand that 50 j
i percent of the candidates of each j
party for the chamber of deputies I
be recruited from the soldier or
ganizations.
This soldier movement has become
disquieting to the great majority of
'outgoing deputies who neglected to
don a uniform during the war. It
is estimated now that between seven
million and eight million votes will
be cast, and there are approximately
five million soldier electors. Among
the former soldiers who will seek
election is the “ace” of French mili
jtary aviation. Rene Fonck, who, it
is reported, will run on the same
ticket with Georges Mandel, right
hand man to Premier Clemenceau.
