NO ROOM HERE FOR TRAITORS
Marshal Reed Saturday night pick
ed up a rara avis in Alaska,—a genu
ine I. W. W., with red card and black
er disposition. There is nothing so
strange about Marshal Reed gathering
in this moral pervert, as he has been
instrumental in suppressing radical
ism at all times; but the strange pait
is that the representative of sabotage
and force has been working in Alaska
for manv months, a large part ot the
time for the government, spreading
his pernicious doctrines unmolested
and without being called to account
by his fellow workmen.
Alaska has no room for these unpa
triotic ingrates. If a man does not
believe he is in the best country on
earth, and attempts to deliver that
country over to murder and rapine,
he should quickly be obliterated. His
presence should not be tolerated b>
decent working men, who believe in
personal liberty and property rights.
Conditions in Alaska for the labor
ing man are not the best in the na
tion. Wages are too low and prices
too high in comparison with many
places in the States. Climatic condi
tions are more severe and jobs are
more scarce. Cut turning to the doc
trines of the Industrial Worker will
not help matters; but rather, will
render them intolerable. Look at Rus
sia under these same conditions un
der a different name. Can you imag
ine nearly three million men, women
and children being massacred in the
name of industrial liberty. Take Ger
many under communism: Would you
like to see the American dollar worth
two million for one of any other na
tion? Would you like to be harassed
and controlled by apostles of force
and destructiveness?
The Alaskan workman can labor
secure in the knowledge that what
ever he does save for a rainy day is
safe and secure; backed by a govern
ment which pays its debts 100 cents
on the dollar. That his home will not
be seized, his children stood up and
shot, or his wife ravished by military
heads of Sovietism.
There can be no temporizing with
the disciples of force. Like a rotten
spot on an apple, they quickly spoil
all with whom they come in contact
Discontent and restlessness is tht
natural vent for energetic, nervous
characters; but radicalism’ and sedi
iion can never be found associated
with a 100 per cent American.
Let’s keep Alaska one hundred pei
cent American!

THE OKLAHOMA SITUATION
Governor Walton of Oklahoma lias
been compelled to declare the state
under martial law, due to the depre
dations of the Ku Klux Klan, Whip
pings by the hooded order have been
so frequent during the past month,
and the reign of terror so complete,
that the Governor deems the situation
demands strong measures.
Oklahoma is fast acquiring a name
for lawlessness that will hurt her
badly in a financial way. When life
and property is not safe from night
riding banditti, who seem determined
to take the law into their own hands,
capital will quietly withdraw and the
effect will mean disaster to all busi
ness enterprises.
While it is declared that many offi
cers of the courts are connected with
the Klans, and are making a half
hearted effort to stop their activities,
the Governor announces that he will
[ summarily dismiss from office any
State employe known to be a member.
He has also publicly announced that
he will issue a pardon to any man
who kills one of these night riders
caught wearing a hood and bent on
lawlessness.
But the effects of the Klan are more
far-reaching than the State of Okla
homa. If a body of men can success
fully defy law and order in one state,
there are other lawless characters in
other states who will take advantage
of the disguise to commit unlawful
acts. If the government can be flout
ed in one state, it can be flouted in
others.
Men too cowardly to commit an un
lawful act publicly, become brave as
lions when masked and backed up by
I several dozen friends. Pulling a man
| or woman from their beds and whip
• ping them to unconsciousness; burn
ing barns and killing stock under a
disguise is pleasant work for many
persons whose natures are such that

they can do in darkness what the

The government must 'either recog
nize the Klans as a positive menace to
the -well-being of the nation, or must
disband its courts and allow its laws
to be administered by masked riders.
A DIVISIONAL FAIR
The Territorial legislature during
its last session appropriated $500 for
each division to be used in holding a
fair, at which exhibits of resources,
etc., could be shown. So far little
has been done in the matter, and the
$500 is still unclaimed.
It might be a good idea for Anchor
age and Seward to unite in holding
one of the fairs or agricultural ex
hibits each year. The exhibits do not
necessarily have to be restricted to
agricultural products, but can include
ores and miners, wToods, curios, fish
eries products, etc.
We believe such an institution
could be made to pay an annual divi
dend in great stimulus to exhibitors,
and increased interest in Alaskan
grown products.
Pancho Villa’s slayer, instead of be
ing given a pension and a vote of
thanks, has been sentenced to twenty
years in the penitentiary. Which goeg

sanctioned by the Mexican govern
ment.
