PRESS INDORSES DEFENSE DAY
Without regard to party lines, the
press of the country has earnestly
endorsed the views expressed by
President Coolidge on the significance
of Defense Day and the propriety of
its observance. No man in his right
mind has any fear of the United
States becoming a militaristic na
tion. At any rate not unless and un
til the Bolshevists get control. As
long as the Constitution forbids an
appropriation for the Army for more
than two years and requires a bien
nial election of Congressmen, there
is no possibility of militarism unless
the Constitution is overthrown first.
The Bolshevists are trying to accom
plish that end and hope to duplicate
Russian conditions here, but then
hopes are vain. In the meantime,
the country will support President
Coolidge in keeping the Nation in
condition to defend its right and the
rights of the people.
DEAR EXPERIENCE
Many people have had the same
idea as a contemporary, though they
may not have expressed it so well as
when that pi*per says: “The mystery
of all mysteries to us is how olten
the fellow whose credit isn’t equal
to a quarter’s worth of crackers at
:he grocer’s is assumed when on the
stump to know beyond all question
I Just how to run the country.” Too
often we have seen demonstrations of
this kind—and usually the communi
ty, the state or the Nation has paid
for dear experience. Following men
who have never made a success of
their private business is quite certain
to lead to disappointment.
SULZER COMING BACK
“I have had a fine time during my
! sojourn in Seward,” said Mr. Sulzer
io the editor. “Many thanks to all
my friends. I shan’t forget their
greetings and hospitality. If I do
j not miss my guess, I’ll be back in the
| year to lend a helping hand in the ac- j
j complishment of some things that j
i will promote the material welfare of
I Seward.”
NO TRAIN OUT Sl^MDAY
Effective the new schedule there
j will be no passenger train from
{Seward to Anchorage on Sunday.
