WHY NOT COME CLEAN
We well remember when we reared back against
the cracker barrel and spit on the stove and cussed the
Eyetalians, the Greeks and the Portugese and Bohunks
because they came over here to this land of the spree
and they home of the knave and took up the tough jobs
and saved their money so they could go back to the Old
/"‘t — A- 1 ! J ^ r. /-111 T f 4- It /A T T d 1 cl fYA O
uutiy cum live in piavc rvu auu. ax caiv-j uau fev/ >'uw>
we cussed them for graceless whelps and if they stayed
with us and bought shoe and candy shops, theaters and
banks, we began to get uneasy about foreign invasion.
And then, after we grew up, we came to Alaska,
and off and on, mostly on, we have been here ever since,
and we find the shoe entirely on the other foot. Terri
ble thing when you get mixed up in shoes—much’ worse
than going bare-headed.
Now we find that our own flesh and blood, our
pals, our friends, our neighbors of long standing, our,
casual acquaintances, come to look at us queerly. We
hear them talking out in the other room about “our trip |
to Florida, to California,” or “I know a delightful placej
down in the Bahamas, and if Fred can get some more i
money in Alaska this year, we’re going to take it,” And!
then they come and find us in a high fever and send a I
hurry call for the doctor. Okey! And when they get the j
cottage paid* for and the trees start growing, they come'
right back to Alaska to get some more money to buy
some little fire plugs to beat Old Man Frost.
It seems almost ridiculous to warn these people
that are making their money in Alaska that they’d bet
ter keen it in Alaska. For one thing, they are bucking
up against a hundred and twenty million people Out
side. Up here they are only bucking perhaps fifty thou
sand or less and have a great rich territory to work on.
They have an almost absolute assurance that Alaska
will go ahead faster in the next five years than it did
in the past twenty-five years.
They should realize by this time that Alaska is a
^. 1 _ /»_ V j j n i i
jjiacu nu iiivebuuem rauier man a piace 10 iaKe money
from. The man who steps out no wwith a faith in the
future of Alaska will keep his money here and draw
down several for every dollar he invests.
Here is a tip for Senator Grundy, chief lobbyist j
for the manufacturers who are seeking means of stim- j
dilating purchases of more goods: Under Charles II, I
in 1677, Parliament decreed: “That from and after the |
first day of August 1678 no corpse of any person or j
persons shall be buried in any shirt, shift, sheet or;
shroud other than what is made of wool only!”
Congress might add as a solution of the antiquated j
flivver question: “and in addition, he shall be buried!
in a Tin Lizzie.”
The idea that everything comes to him who waits ;
did not work out for J. A. Mostyn, a Washington dry
“Cheka.” Finding some whiskey in rear of an under- I
taking establishment, he hid in a coffin for 11 hours j"
awaiting the owner, who failed to show up. Mostyn !
-was weak and nervous after his vigil.
