COMMERCIALIZED DEBUNKING. Whenever someone propounds an idea that be: comes popular up jumps a horde of enterprising traders of one sort or another to capitalize the thing. Critics offered pertinent suggestions tending to set more lot of things. Mencken called it debunking. Now debunking has become a profession. Out in Kansas an iconoclastic publisher has changed the name of his magazine to And that is all right, but its debunking is loaded with so much bunk that it In recent months it has debunked history, the Puritans, the the Church of England—in fact, all the churches, Catholic and Protestant—the medi- cal profession, the universities and colleges (espec- That has been the case with debunking. people to straight thinking on a the “Debunker.” suggests a job for another debunker.

Much of it is good stuff, but a lot of it in her Conservative constituency, had just 211 plur- ality over her Labor opponent in the recent British election. The Liberal candidate received nearly 6,000 votes. So the American peeress is a minority |member by more than 5,000 votes. Lord Rosebery. (Manchester Guardian.) Lord Rosebery had lived so long in retirement that for most people now alive his political career is little more than a slgshing legend. In one re- spect he bears a strange resemblance to Lord Shel- burne. Shelburne became Prime Minister in 1782, when under the age of fifty, held office for a few months, and never sat in a Cabinet again. Lord Rosebery became Prime Minister in 1894, when under the age of fifty, held office for a few months, and never sat in a Cabinet again. But there the resemblance ends. Shelburne is one of the inscrutable characters of history, and historians ever since have argued about the qualities that made him so difficult a colleague. There was nothing inscrutable about Lord Rosebery. His weak points were as conspicuous and as intelligible as his strong, his defects as his qualities, He was a brilliant speaker, able to do for politics what as a .writer he could do for history—make them interesting, liv- ing, and picturesque. In this way, even in an age much richer in political orators than ours, his career interested and attracted many who did not like Liberal politics and many who did not care for politics at all. But he lacked persistence and sta- bility and those rough and serviceable qualities which so often enable men with less brilliant gifts to push past their rivals even when those rivals excel them in some of the most important of the acts of politics. Highway to_AEska Strongly Advocated. (Seattle Business Chronicle.) Although yet not much more than a dream, it will in due time become a reailty—a highway 1|linking Alaska with Pacific Northwest. Before many years roll around the motorist will be privileged to speed northward over Pacific Highway through Van- couver in British Columbia and on to Juneau and Skagway. Alaskans declare the project is entirely feasible. Delegate Sutherland of the Territory - Ihas written articles and is otherwise advocating the project. He says he finds strong sentiment among his constituents and citizens of Washington for early construction of missing sections that will link the roads of Alaska and British Columbia into a con- tinuous highway, reaching northward from Van- couver. i Before this summer ends air transportation be- - |tween Seattle and Alaska will be well established. This will help materially to end comparative isola- |tion of the Territory. It may slightly postpone realization of the dream of a land thoroughfare. But the postponement is not likely to be a long one. It is easy to believe that a Seattle-Juneau highway would instantly be among the most popular in the world for hunters, fishermen, tourists and lovers of scenic beauties. In addition to this it is stated that the road would aid greatly in develop- ment of rich mineral resources tributary to its course. The time seems at hand for serious considera- tion of ways and means of building this high- way. With sagging prices for what Iowa has to sell, like corn, and soaring prices for what Iowa has _|to buy, like college athletes, it is plain why Iowa should be the center of agricultural discontent.— (New York Times.)
