ALASKA BUREAUCRACY
All Alaskans hold their breath; don’t wiggle an ear:
or in any way make a noise until after April 1, for the
Alaska Game Commission has met, and it wall take until j
that time to reduce their finding so us poor muckers un-1
derstand them.
We are sure the majority of the citizens of Alaskaj
were unaware of the fact that progress of the session
was to be suppressed and we feel certain the majority re- j
sent the implied insinuation that we cannot be trusted or j
understand the finding of this august body.
WATCH ’EM COME HOME
From now on vessels leaving Seattle will carry back!
the people who were fortunate enough to get out for a j
trip. Some are indeed entitled to every ounce of pleas- j
ure, especially those who have been locked up in isolated
districts and away from the “cares that are” and the
“powers that be.” Others just go, a force of habit, and:
make it as regular every year as the ticks of a brand new
Ingersoll—maybe to buy clothes, maybe for special med-!
ical treatment, but as far as the majority are concerned1
we conclude some are unaware of their roll, its value, and
above all are troubled with that dreadful disease called
“green piles.” Some people just can’t stand prosperity!
CAN’T GO ON FOREVER
Senator Borah does a service by pointing out that
citizens of the United States are now paying a total of
$7,000,000,000 a year in federal, state and municipal taxes
—three times as much as they did 10 years ago.
Sooner or later this load must be reduced. And spora
dic outbursts of penny-pinching “economy” won’t bring
permanent relief, either. What we need is a thoro-going
revision of our entire scheme of taxation—by experts,
not by politicians.
WALL. STREET OR FLORIDA
Press dispatches from the New York stock exchange
which have been published by The Gateway during the
past few days, seem to indicate a near panic which is rath
er surprising at this time of general prosperity. The only
reason as described to the exotic fall in speculative stocks
is that some of the New York speculators got caught in
the Florida land boom and were compelled to unload their
more liquidable New York stock to save the liquid land.
Alaskans, who are in Florida write back to their
friends in the Territory advising them they don’t know
a thing about gold digging.

Lest we forget or you forget, we mention the fact
that a week from tomorrow will be the “17th of Ireland.”
“Tell me,” said a young man to Hakeem, the Wise
One of Bagdad, “what is the priceless ingredient of a
thing?”
“My son , the Priceless Ingredient of everything is
the honor and integrity of him who makes it,” said Hak
eem, the Wise One of Bagdad.
