The Rev. John Roach Straton’s attack on the character of Gov. Smith is not the first time Dr Straton has performed in that manner and it is mot the first time when he has got the worst of a controversy public man. The fol- lowing dispatch appeared in a recent issue New York World under a Norfolk, Va., date of August § The Rev. Dr. John Roach Straton, who has attacked Gov. Smith, made sim- ilar charges while he was pastor of the First Baptist Church in Norfolk, against Judge O. L. Shackleford and muni- cipal officials, all of which he was forced to retract when he was sued for libel. Dr. Straton preached a claring Norfolk was filled of prostitution and other and that authorities were being paid to protect them. He accused Judge Shackle- ford, then Commonwealth Attorney, of “being In league with police who were receiving protection money. All this happened in February, 1919, and about the same time A, G. Backus was convicted of bootlegging and sen- tenced to jail. Backus w a friend of Dr. Straton and the pnmher pe- titioned Gov. Westmoreland Davis for a pardon. The Governor refused a par- don unless it was recommended by Bhackleford. The attorney declined to make the recommendation and it was then that Straton printed a circular accusing Shackleford of being in cahoots with the police, whom he charged with protecting operators of vice houses. Dr. Straton also wrote a book which with self-explanatory of the a sermon de- with houses forms of vice, JARANTEED TO BE LARGER| Main | | them |is hydro-electric THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, MONDAY, AUGUST 27, 1928 he sold for $1 per copy.

We there can a were Plain Talk from Georgia. (New York Times.) W. T. Anderson, editor of aph, a temperance man, not a prohibition- speaks frankly and honestly to the “crusad- to whom a phantom prohibition is so sacred. was talking the other day to three newspaper in Mississippi. To his surprise he found all sincere prohibitionists, although they whis and scour every community where go to get whiskey.” Drys of this kind are Common enough is his own experience. Before prohibition he never drank any whiskey. Since prohibition he has taken a great many drinks of it, “because it is ever present and plentiful and it has become such a social practice that one is somewhat out of step if it is declined.” The juries that try moonshiners buy moon- shine The better class of citizens” violate the Volstead act at their pleasure. “We all claim for public reasons that we are prohibitionists and privately we sneak around and violate the law.” By breaking the tabeo and telling the truth about prohibition Mr. Anderson must have com- mitted much more heinous cifense, in the opinion crusaders, than a mere violation of the law The Macon He men drink they commen everywhere, Bears Must Give Way to Livestock. (Seward @ateway.) Civilization is reaching eager hands toward the open spaces of Alaska and bear which furnish amusement for rich huntsmen must give way be- fore an advancing army of livestock raisers who are about to preempt the haunts of the wild denizens of hills and dells of Western Alaska islands. Especially is this true of Kodiak Island that is now practically taken up under homestead grazing lea applications and where 500 families should be established within the next few years. “When it comes to a question of a bear or a sheep taking up room on Kodiak, I'm for the sheep,” said Jack MecCord, who is helping to develop the livestock industry along the islands stretching towards Asia where thousands of miles are declared to be available for year-round graz- ing. Mr. McCord brought the subject up at the last meeting of the Seward Chamber of Commerce in an effort to work out a plan of action in co- operation with the Kodiak Livestock Association, looking to the control of the bear menace as against the growing livestock interests taking hold in that vicinity. Vote-Winning First. (Kansas City Post.) We do wish political leaders wouldn't frankly discuss the matter of adopting policies calculated to win votes. Such conduct makes it appear that United |our leaders take political success into considera- tion instead of concerning themselves solely with high ideals. We have long thought the other party would stoop to this, but we have believed that our party was actuated solely by high motives and that its leaders would give no thought to such a thing as securing votes, can be possible that both parties actually allow themselves to be influenced by what voters in this or that section may think of a certain issue. It really is our party thinks beginning twice of to look as if even victory to where it thinks once of exact justice, so we are half a notion to go through this campaign without falling out with any of our neighbors who are on the other side.
