THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION hey will ilure or ER o S ABOUT ALASKAN ADVERTESING. The Post-Intelligencer intimates that there is too much advertising of Alaska as tourist sttraction to the exclusion of advertising it a ‘dand of great resources and potential develop ment. Perhaps, but it must not be forgotten thA&t the tourist advertising brings direct white most of the development other ‘sources than advertising comes " here to investigate specific that are presented to him by those seeking capi- tal. He rarely comes as a result of news stories or general advertising. Furthermore, tourist advertising frequently is, the indirect cause of the development of re sources. It brings tourists or big game hunters who become interested in the country and either return to develop some opportunity that has come under their notice or they invest money with someone or concern that already is developing something. That has occurred frequently Al- aska. Just as California tourists have remained in that State, and aided it to become former Alaska tourists are among our )best velopers. a results through The investor comes propositions in de- THE THIRD TERM PRECEDENT. Ralph Beaver Strassburger of Normandy Farm, Gwinedd Valley, Pennsylvania, has issued a pamphlet, entitled “Coolidge and the Third Term,” in which he gquotes James G. Blaine, com- menting upon the third term, as saying: It is the American people themselves who have made the tradition, made it part of the unwritten code of the Re- public, and it was the respectful recogni- tion of their attitude that led Jefferson, Madison, Monroe and Jackson not to seek a third term or even suggest it. It James G. Blaine actually spoke or wrete a8 quoted he did not stick closely to histor, though the conclusion correctly stated the situa- tlon that existed in his time. It is not true that Jefferson through ‘‘respectful recognition” of the attitude of the peopld “did not seck a third term or even suggest it.” The people had no one else in mind for the Presidency save and except Jefferson when he announced that he would not accept the office. He had been placed in nomination for the Presidency for a third term by the Legislatures of two States—Penn- sylvania and Vermont Virginia, North Cawo- lna, Kentucky, Tennessee and other States were about to nominate him Virginia would have done it already had it not been that prominent Virginians knew what was Jefferson’s attitud ‘toward it. Jefferson would have been chose for a third term almost without oppogition had he not interposed his refwsal. It may be proper to say that Madisen and Monroe accepted the attitude of the people in regard to a third term, but there is none who have followed their careers and resognimed their veneration for the Jefferson judgments that will not concede that they would have refused third terms if they had been offeared. They were Jef- fersonians through and throwgh. But with Jaek- son, like with Jefferson, it is to withhold full measure of justice to say that he respectfully recognized the attitude of the people by not seek- . ing or suggesting a third term. Jaeksomgs posi- tion was positive rather than negadive. ‘‘He had but to say the word and he would have surely been thrice President,” te quote MeMaster, the famous historian, but he did more tham net to | say the word. He said in strong, unmistakeable ferms that he was opposed in principle to a third term for any President, and that W would Ey have the Ppesidency again. While Washington created a precedent against third term when he refused to run again, for reasons, it has been said that eme of the nal reasons was a fSeeling of doubt about er or not he could be re-elected. He said about the principle involved. The pre- against a third term did not bgceme es- lish until Jefferson set forth rea why ome should be President for more t two ms and referred to Washington's refusal to for & third term as a “sound precedent.” i ) on set an example bw refusing to candidate for«a third Presidential tegm. accepted it as a precedent for a prin- which he enunciated and defined. Presidents ever retired from office after rms of service with the confidence and “of the people so unanimously behind when the people were so ready to ac- suggestions as sound, in the same de- s was the case with Jefferson and Jackson, M , Monroe, Grant amd Roosevelt quit| going strong.

(Manchester The death of ican Governor Guardian.) General Leonard Wood, Amer- General of the Philippine Islands, may prove to be a turning-point in the troublous road trodden by the Filipinos for nearly a gen- eratien. There have been two main lines of American policy. he Republicans have favoréd the development of the islands’ natural resources under the sovereignty of a strong American Ex- ecutive; the Democrats preferred, and did much, to twansfer the sovereignty to a native Legisla- ure. President Wilson pressed on the “Fili- nisation” of the islands. A Republican Ad- inistration came in, and General Wood was sent ut te reverse the Democratic policy. He gov- erned for some years in an atmosphere of pro- test ending in deadlock. The final step was taken last February, when the islands were placed by General Wood under direct military control. His death may mark the end of the policy which failed with him, Just What Is Service. (New Orleans Times-Picayune.) We hear a lot about service these days, but see very little of it—so little, in fact, that it has no tangible significance in the mind of the average person. Just what has been said about ‘“‘Service With a Bmile,” that one might be forgiven for reply- ing #hat “service is exehanging merchandise for dollars and threwing W a grin.” It is really much more than this, however. It has been pointed out that the very best example of service may be obtained at the gaso- line filling station; you drive up and ask for five gallons of gas. You not only get the five gallons of gas, but you get fresh air, water in your radiator, directions as to the correct road to take from that point on, and such little extra attention as having your windshield, radiator cap and gasoline line, gauge dusted by a smiling young man in white coat who politely but firmly declines the proffered tip for the service. This is service; giving just a little more than you are paid for and something that the reciplent] does not ask or expect, but which pleases him be- cagse of its very unexpectedness and makes him w#t to do you a service in return and will, :«;r this reason, bring him back at some future me. 4 man lives only once, at least in this world, and if we were in Gifford Pinchot’s place we believe we'd make a desperate effort to get| Uncle Andrew Mellon off our mind and get what fun we could out of our remaining years. —(Ohio State Journal.)
