ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION. JUNEAU AT FIFTY LOOKS FORWARD. satisfaction. in the progress achieved by Juneau in the first half century of her existence. Substantial achievements have marked the years. Mineral development more nearly ap- proaches permanency than such activity has ever | attained elsewhere in Alaska or in most mining areas in the States; but comparatively few precious metal districts have survived 50 years. Fortunes have been harvested from the sea. Wealth has accrued from tourist travel, induced by neighboring scenic \ granduer. Distinction with some profit results from the city’s pre-eminence as the capital of the Ter- ritory But the annals of the past are of slight interest unless they can be made to serve as guides to future advancement, and the accomplishments of yester- day are of little value unless they are enlisted to aid in tha expansion of ‘tomorrow. Living on the recollection of old timers, Josh Billings said, is like cating soup with a fork—no nutriment is gained, At 50 years of age, Juneau is at the portal of her most prosperous era. Mineral resources, because of the constantly increasing purchasing power of gold in peace time, will be subjected to more ex- tensive exploitation; ore reduction processes will be | improved. The fishing industry, with scentific conservation just beginning to be effective, is entering on a period There is reason for of stability never before attained in any other waters of the world. Scenic wonders and climatic advantages make certain that Alaska is destined in time not distant to be the Nation's summer playground, and wherever the attractions—Coastal or Interior—this city will always be the gateway to them. New enterprises crowd the near horizon. Timber, fast becoming exhausted in the States, abounds in this part of the Territory. It will be logged in perpetuity. Pulp mills, paper-making establishments and a myriad of wood-working plants are sure com- plements of adjacent forests. Trade and commerce for a vast region will be centered here with aug- mented water transportation facilities. Juenau, 50 years old, is not like the light in the stern of a ship, looking backward. She peers forward from the prow. Her achievements of ihe past inspire her now to greater accomplishments in the future. RAILROAD SHOULD DO MORE TO DRAW TOURISTS. Henry Roden’s suggestion that the Alaska Rail- road could materially reduce, if not wipe out, the annual deficit in its operation by advertising for and catering to tourists is worthy of serious considera- tion. The railroad was built particularly as an aid to Alaska development. The slogan of the voluntary lobby that was assembled at Washington from the Northwest to work for the authorization of the rail- road and the appropriation for it was “Develop Alaska.” American and Canadian steamship have increased their capacity to handle tour- ists. The Alaska Steamship Company this year has operated a large extra passenger ship for that purpose. The tourists have - not. utilized one-half of available ship"accommodations. More advertising would add immensely to the number of tourists that come, and their coming would contribute to the business and development of the entire Terri- tory. The railroad would not only get the direct re- turns from additional tourists’ fares over the road but it would get freight and passengers through the business that would be created by the tourist traffic. The failure of the tourist traffic to reach the proportions that was expected this year has served to draw special attention to the trade value of that business. Advertising by the Government railroad would naturally have greater drawing powers than adver- tising for tourists by another agency. companies FORMER NORTHERNER RUNNING FOR GOVERNOR OF OHIO. George White, who was nominated by Ohio Democrats for Governor the other day, was a Klondiker. He arrived at Skagway from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with two other young men in 1897 They reached the Klondike just in time to stake claims on Gold Hill. Mr. White remained in the country two years. Sold his claim and cleaned up He got back to Pittsburgh with $75,000 in gold. He became interested in oil, particularly in the dis- tribution end of the game, and located at Marietta, | He amassed a great fortune and served | Ohio. three terms in Congress. He was manager of the campaign at San Fanciscco in 1920 for the nom- ination of . Gov. Cox for President. When his con- ventipn campaign was successful he was made Chairman of the Democratic National Committee. He resigned shortly after the election and was sueceeded by Congressman Cordell Hull, who was nominated for Senator in Tennessee the other day. The dispatches say that Mr. White is a dry while former Congressman Bulkley, nominated for Senator the same ticket with hi is a wet. On the Gov.

So bitter became the fight that the President thought it wise to state his position. “Your course has been ‘the only one that will secure the advance- ment of this development in the interest of Ten- nessee,” he wrote to. Mr. Reece. Also he stated| definitely he would not approve the Norris plan “because it is not in the interest of Tennessee or the rest of the Nation.” Loud cries that the Presi- dent had come out in favor of that fiction of the demagogues, the “power trust,” were raised. The Republicans of the First District have spoken. They have rejected the socialistic theories of the Norris cult. It is particularly striking in view of the recession in industrial activity and the alluring argument that Government operation would bring into productivity sooner than private interests the great water power, so long idle, in which Ten- nessee and Alabama, and indirectly, other parts of the country, have so vital an interest It is to be hoped this Tennessee verdict presages a better understanding of the fundamental prin- ciple involved In Muscle Shoals and a weakening of the effect of the demagogic appeals of those who | would plunge the Federal Government into a busi- ness that is inherently better suited to prlvale\ operation. bune.) t in the Iirst Ten-! almost solely upon governmental-econ- of the $130,000,000 1als.

(New York World.) i In view of the epidemic of Red baiting that we | have had recently, and seem still to be having, it is refreshing to read the remarks of Judge William N.| Runyon of Newark to Harry Gold, a Communist, who was before him in Federal Court. Gold, it will be recalled, was driving to a Communist picnic when he was hailed by a soldier from Camp Dix who wanted a lift. He gave the lift, lent his guest a quarter and presently fell to taking enthuiastically about Communism. His reward for this was to be turned over to a State policeman, the soldier asking him to stop a minute and then calling the officer He was held four days without bail. His lawyer tried in vain to obtain his release by habeas corpus from State Judges and then sought the Federal Court. Judge Runyon not only released him but had some pointed things to say about the treatment he had been accorded. “Irrespective of what the conversation was,” he said, “it seems to me, and I think it seems to the District Attorney, that yohr‘, situation is not one that demands the treatment| that has been accorded you. I want to say to you frankly that it seems to me you did two kind acts. You gave a man a lift who wanted it and gave him a little money becauce he wanted it. That may be Communism, but if it is I think it is a very admirable brand of Communism to share your belongings with somebody else. I can only say, sir, that I hope you can look with kindness on government in general.” And again: “I don't take it that this Government is designed to throttle a man's ideas or to close his mouth. T believe that free speech is just as much today an incident and a principle of this Government as it ever was. T believe you have the right to express your ideds as and when you please as long as those ideas so expressed are not designed to undo and de- stroy our Government.” This was courteous and kindly, and what is more, it was informed by a sane and realistic under- standing of law. It should be a rebuke to the course that was pursued by New Jersey officials. Cat Is Trying for Pole-Sitting Record. (Port Angeles News.) When will this epidemic stop? Even the cats are doing it. A lady called up this morning and reported tha: a house cat has been sitting in a telephone pole at 536 West Tenth Street, this city since last Mon- day. [The issue containing the item was printed on a Fridayl. quartet of boys on Lincoln Heights who have been decorating various kinds of trees most of this week The cat, however, is attempting a more difficult ftask of tree sitting by not using any refueling crew. The cat has not eaten anything since climbing up the pole last Monday. Whether or not any kind of cat tree-sitting record has been broken, is not known. Search of record books of various kinds fails to disclose any or poles.
