EVIDENT! ' IN ” >NG PEW
In yesterday’s is~ue nice to the
public which read in r-ar: . s: "Igloo
No. 16. Pioneers of connect
ed with F. J. FurnF.i; a ticket
for the coming elect ion.”
The notice wa« ouv. ' request of
the secretar> of th< lion lilts
fact because of the r s upon past
relation between th. r- . -aid F. J.
Now. we are >uie F H accuse us
of being a pryer ir.: s business:
because we have al e to attend
to our own first and uUe suffici
ent to Keep us f u :t fairs nnd
a ready channel t: to flow.
As a matter of fact, it i~ find out
all about public affair - . .he news.
Unfortunately Her ' in all; but
when a broad hint h : r way: like
the one in the notice bore is some
thing wrong, it becor. to make the
proper inquiry and er f ' • uMic. for we
are all interested—n*. n a municipal
ticket for election. kior>:What
happened that the Fneers has
broken loose from the near no
torious Alaska Invcs " . F. J. Fur
nival: the ever react nher pea
pie’s business: tr i:i :e;an: the
man whose ambhi ■ > dictate to
others what they -' t do. The
newcomer —com pa ' ho brot
nothing but evider ' him. and
who wants to tell The . - of this
very prosperous :••••’ 'it’d manage
their business th ucted with
gratifying succe:->'■ 'itance—for
these many years. he question.
What heppened ?:•?.; ‘ ’ • ■ and the
said F. J.? Won’t - - r he that we
may inform the pi 11 deny that
something has frapp- . a familiar
term, pioneers of T * ' F. J. have
been very ’thick'’ and * rh? moment
the latter had a star J indicates
stormy time>. How
surprise some, it did u- the least.
Our surprise is that it didn't occurred long sine?
But at last the Pioneers took a tumble and the
next one in order shall be F. J. Furaivai and the
officials of the Alaska Investment Company.
But why beat around the bush? Why not tell
him and they that they can reason with the
voters of this coomunity but that they can’t be
forced to elect men to manage their affairs that
a newcomer tells them to. The voters are fully
competent to make their own ticket. Conclus
ively F. J. and his few associate schemers are in
the wrong pew.
IF GERMAN "DISAPPEARED"
Germany may be said to be imitating the Fat
Boy cf Pickwick Papers in a Teutonic tendency
to make the allies* flesh creep.”
Great Britain must hasten to arrange a peace
satisfactory to the Huns or submit to a fulfil
ment of the awful threat that "Germany will
disappear."
The disappearance of Germany may or may
not. we think, he a calamity to the German peo
pie. The German people are entitled to suffer
many calamities in reparation for the calamities
that the Huns have brought upon other people.
The allied nations will remain unterrified by
German threats. These nations have had to
suffer thedisappearance of treasures of money,
treasures of love and treasures of life unspeak
ably more precious, because of honesty of pur
pose than all the treasures of German national
life now and in the hereafter.
AS TO RUSSI A
Stories about Russia differ s <pmueh that it
difficult to set the truth. However, in the
midst of the confflicting reports, comes the sta
tement of Robert Minor, a New York World cor
respondent who claims to have inside informati
on that the Russian government is neither one
thine or another. He cables:
"There has been a strange twisting sort of
government, and a slight of hand so called die
tatorship of the proletariat has become the gov
ernment. In place of enjoying the milennium
of which the Socialist have dreamed. Russia has
fallen under the dread‘tyranny of the Commis
sion; but compared with earlier standards, you
may see a ragged but fairly robust little repu
blie with a painfully acute case of government
ownership.”
From this it appears that Lenine's Bolsheviki
government is a dictatorship without the dream
of the Socialist, but with the presence of a ty
ranny as great as that of the old reyime.
If the coming parley between the allies repre
sentatives and tne Lenine s representatives a
mounts to anythiny, it may clear up the situa
ticn. but puff up the Bolcheviki with irrepressi
Pie pride and importance that may lead into
more trouble later.
