LEGAL AND ILLEGAL DESPOTS.


We purport to live in a republic.
We believe that the people have the
right 10 govern themselves, and VIC
fondly imagine that they do so. We
know very we'll that the proposition 10
create by law dictator wouldn't get
a vote outside Of an insane asylum.
And yet there seems to be no nation
in which II is SO easy for men to be-
come financial and political dietators.
In England and France, and possibly
in Germany also, the assumption Of
power by man who has no Legal
warrant for IL, the defiance Of public
rights and interests by a corporation.
arouses public Indignation which
makes itself felt and obeyed. But
nere.there are few days of loud and
indiscriminate talk, and then every
thing goes on as before.
No rational man would consider for
moment change of the Constitu-
ton that would empower any one
man to name the Governor of the
fFtAtts ttAt AflA9o VI AAio tAAf An1 i7tl-
ators, the Representation OF the city
in the Legislature and the bills that
should be passed and that should not
be. But without particle of consti-
iutionaI or legal authority such men
nave succeeded each other in this
state, and If the present moment is a
sort OF interregnum in which political
power is more or less scattered, there
is only too much reason TO expect
further bosses.
In the business world we produce
autocrats. If we single out T.. II.
Hartman and John -. Rockefeller
for unfavorable comment il is not be-
cause they are very rich. Wealth is n
relative term, and it is very doubtful
IL they are relatively richer than
stephen Girard and John Jacob Astor
were in their day. But these men, and
the lawyers to whom they can pay
princely salaries, find ways Of evad-
ing and circnmventing the laws.
They are above law. The public
thinks their absorption of power is
contrary to public policy, but the laws
by which it seeks to prevent such
consolidation prove TO be ineffective.
The President and the Interstate Com
merce Commission.agree that the rail
road business cannot be carried ON
without violating the Interstate Com
merce law, which creates very
curious situation. But even if we
can't compel competition we should
like to prevent the growth of Napo-
Icons of railroading and Cars of
tseel or oil or tobacco. dominating
entire industries. But while our theo-
ries are democratic our practices are
autocratic. Philadelphia Record.

 Southeastern Alaska citizens are making a grave mistake. It is time they listen to spokesmen other than oface holders who see in self-govern- ment 8 possible loss of q job secured by political backing. The rest ot the vast territory is beginning to tire of the weight called conservatism added to public affairs by this small section of a vast district. in particular Ju- neau has iu the past relied upou gov ernment officials to do their thinking and voice their sentiments. It k now time that our citizens eXerted the right of rolce and franchise and spoke plainly to the other sections of Alaska that we are with them for progression and self government. Let the office holder hold his office and let our citizens exert manhood and independence of speech upon all the great questions now con fronting Alaskans.

present Offices have been added by

and public improvements have de-
manded, such as sewer Inspector,
marketmaster, etc., but there is a
multiplicity of politicians in all cities,
and a curb placed on the tendency of
politicians TO find a way to care for
each other at the public crib would
reduce the burden on the taxpayers
and rent payers, at a time when 1t
will be comparatively easy to do so.
For instance, there is no reason un-
der the skies why Paducah should
have a city attorney and city So
licitor, too. The duties of the former
Official consist in prosecuting petty
offenders before magistrate, or con-
Quoting the preliminary examination
of criminals, who II held to the
grand jury, pass from his hands
forthwith. One attorney could be
both legal adviser and criminal pros
ecutor for the city. There are num-
Der of other places that could be con-
solidated. even at cost of trihe in
crease in salary to the official who
takes on additional duties.
