After all, it is the people of Cal
ifornia themselves who are very
largely responsible for conditions
which they are now trying to rem
edy, at the risk of involving the
whole United States in difficulties
with the Orient. It was not so very
many years ago that Californians
welcomed the opportunity to em
ploy low- salaried Japanes servants,
to the exclusion of American girls
whose service? were for hire .as
domestics. Alien land laws and the
exclusion of Asiatics could have
been engineered safely in those days
but such was the condition of public
mind that far-sighted persons like
Dr. C. C. O’Donnell, were ridiculed
when they advocated immigration re
forms.
The office of United States mar- i
shall has attractions far - beyond j
that of governor, if one may judge :
by the number of aspirants for the ;
position now held by our friend, j
the “Jedge.” About a score of
Fairbanks Republicans have signified
their willingness to step into Mar
shall Erwin’s shoes but there ap
pears to be only one applicant in ,
territory.
The opening of the Broad Pas*;
trail to travel will benefit Nenana :
greatly during the present winter |
and the winters to come, pending;
the completion of the railroad. The!
only bad feature of it is that all
of the travel appears to be out-1
ward-bound.
It must be said to the credit of
Fourth division Democrats that they!
played the game squarely during the
late campaign. Over in Anchorage ;
the voters were baited with an open
town for a week or more before
election. Nothing was barred—not
even “mule”, and the impression
was permitted to go abroad that
things would continue that way if
the Democrats won. But they didn’t.
Arthur Frame, former United
States commissioner at Fairbanks,
is first in the field in the Third divi
sion for appointment as district
judge, to succeed Judge Fred M.
Brown, whose term will expire in
June. He is an able lawyer and has
always been a staunch Republican,
which should entitle him. to favor
able consideration when the dis
tribution of judgeships begins.
Andy McKenzie says there is no
truth to the report that he is an
applicant for John Moe’s job.
Dusty streets in the middle of
November! Can you beat it for ;
climate?
Speaking of extremes, the Alaskan
Engineering commission has just
turned down a request of the town
trustees for permission to incur a
liability of fifty dollars a month
to help pay the salary of a night
watchman during the winter months.
Our only comment is that we wish
that sort of economy had been
practiced w-hen the town was less
heavily involved.
Don’t complain because the wind
blows a little dush at you occasion
ally. It might be worse. For ex- j
ample, a coast breeze recently blew j
two large sawmills down in the J
Turnagain arm section, and it is i
not unusual for the wind to cave |
in a plate glass window at Anchor- j
age, Seward and other coast towns. I
There must be something to
those rumors of impending border
trouble. Mexico is much too well
behaved outwardly these days to be '
safe.
The Walsh committee may be
unable to prove that the Shipping
board has been guilty of deliberate
graft but it has at least secured
an admission that the organization !
is lacking in efficiency, which is
probably more costly to the nation.
When you complain about the ex
cessive freight rates on the Gov
ernment railroad you are told that
such things are in accordance with
established federal schedules. But
the same rules, apparently, do not
not hold good when it comes to
operating trains with half-crews and
compelling section men and tank
tenders to work more than eight
hours.
Both Xenana and Fairbanks arc
playing- in hard luck this winter.
First, Fairbanks lost the mail con- *
tract; then orders came to close
the accounting office in Xenana.
And now Fairbanks is without a
court.
It is something just a little bit
out of the ordinary for people to
seek protection on Turkish soil.
Those Bolshevik fellows must be bad
ones if they can drive people to
the Turks for safety.
