BEWARE OF THE CHARACTER ASSASSINS
One of the most despicable phases of the present cam
paign in Alaska is the lying attacks that are being made
against the reputation of the candidates of the Indepen
dent ticket and their supporters. Charges that are known
to be false by those who make them are being printed in
political sheets and circulars, most of them being absolu
tely libelous, but circulated by people who are wholly ir
responsible and judgment proof, or surreptitiously—so
secretly that proof of authorship or circulation would be
difficult to obtain. . , '
t - No man who will make charges for the purpose of in
fluencing election results in any way except in the open so
that the accusers might be known, their interest consider
ed, and their charges met, is worthy of any consideration
whatever. Voters who are handed a privately circulated
letter or circular of any kind, or to whom whispered
charges are made, attacking the character of any candi
date, or any other person, ought to ask, “Why don't you
make that public?" And if it is not made public with the
names of the sponsors, and sufficiently early to permit the
charges to be met before the election then the fact of the
circulation ought to be charged against the circulator and
those whom he represents. » •*
!* The people of Alaska will generally applaud the
treatment oi Mr. Marquam, of one of these dastardly
secret attacks, when he read in full to an audience that
knew him well through living for years in the same com
munity with him, a letter, attacking his character and
personal affairs, and stopping without comment. The
people to whom he read the letter knew that its author
lied and dared not make his letter and its authorship
public.—Juneau Empire.
NO LONGER PROTECTS BRITAIN
The channel swimming epidemic has had one good
result. Proponents of the tunnel to connect England and
France are now using the argument that, since it is be
coming an everyday occurrence for people to swim the
strait, the narrow stretch of water has ceased to be a
protection to the British Isles.
WILL ROGERS’ PLAN
Will Rogers is not only America’s greatest humorist,
but he is one of America’s best citizens. His thought is al
ways for the good of his country. He says the way to
make the European countries disarm is for us to go to
building bigger, better and more battleships and airplanes
and increase our army, because all the other countries are
after is to get us to put down our guard long enough for
them to get in the knockout blow.
So golf costs America half a billion a year! What is
more, it makes men live longer and thus consume a lot
more.
