ence shall be established and help with a portion of the expense. We have heard some to remark that walk built along that shore would not stand against the action of the water, but such argument is non. sensical. By cribbing the entire distance and filling the crib with stone, walk could be built that would withstand any weather and be permrnent improvement to all property touched. Thousands of tons of stone could be procured by doing a little blasting along the line. No excuse exists for refusing to put a walk along that piece of beach, and SENTINEL intends to keep hammering away until this idea is either carried out or nega- lived beyond recall.

A MUSICAL WAR

Some of the great composers of music, poets, writers and actors in this world of ours are very sore be- cause the makers of photographic tecorls are using their creations broadcast, as they alleges without authority. This is news to the public; since it had always been widely accepted that these people had voluntarily sung and played and read and tetited into the re- eeiving instruments of the record concerns just for the sake of an ex- tended popularity; at least, these masterpieces have been advertised in this fashion; and this explosion tArows the mantle of doubt over the whole situation. At all events, . war has been declared and the battle ground is to be in Washing ton, in the departments next to such business.
 There is a nice question involved in this uproar, and it is likely to find its way to the top of the con- fusion of argument, namely, that when a song i3 sung to the public, 
 when book is published and sold to the public, when a speech is made in public, every note and line and word and sentiment instantly becomes the property of that pub lie, and can never be recalled, sup pressed nor abridged in any way. We have never seen this argument urged, that we know of, butt good lawyers have maintained if, and the abstract principle is one of ex- act and equitable justice; add if it is to prevail in this contention against the phonograph people, the results will be disastrous to those authors who rely upon the public for the acceptance and commenda- tion of their work. -. ..-

we know of, but this looks very much like a fragrant denial of the constitutional right of free speech. It is not altogether a matter of personal preference or prejudice, this forbidding something that is guaranteed by the organic law of the land, and if the socialists of the Sound metropolis shall follow the lead of their Los Angeles brethen, taken some years ago, the police authorities will find out a thing or two of which they are apparently ignorant
 No man may preach sedition nor declare treason nor other disloyal doctrines, publicly, nor privately for that matter; but we doubt if any man may be estopped from Us ing his tongue and brain in the candid expression of his views upon civic policies, industrial dogmas and social problems. The province of such public discussion is not confined to the press and rostrum of the country, for there are condi tions under which neither one nor the other are available. And every attempt to gag a man, or a body of men, reacts sooner or later in favor of the element and principle sought to be suppressed. History has proven this in a thousand instances and is likely to repeat itself.

ELIMINATING THE WEAK

One of the very best things that can happen to this country is in process, day by day now, and is doing more to re establish conf- dence in the financial world than anything else could: That is the elimination of weak banks and weaker men presumably in charge of the peoples money, First, the banks that could not stand alone have gone to the wall; and their exclusion and settlement once for all is being followed by the self immolation of those who were pri- marily responsible for the condi- tions precedent. It is infinitely sad that these results must obtain, but it is good for the people at large and the end of it all will be to clar- fly and strengthen the monetary situation and restore the disturbed balances from one end of the coun try to the other; indeed, that very process is under way and is fast rounding into fact.
Alaska sentinel., 1908-01-09

For long time past SENTINEL has been advocating the construc- tion of level walk to connect the Front Street and Stikine Avenue, but as yet nothing has been done toward it. The council has had
 Front Street extended and walks repaired in various parts of town, the western end of town being the only exception. Now, seeing that west end residents have paid their share toward the improvements and
 repairs in other parts of town, is it unreasonable of them to ask for
 share of the easements? The de- partment of government having charge of the reserve has granted
 permission to build walk along the water front, and several of the residents of this end of town have offered to donate literally, in work or money, toward the construction
 of a substantial walk, and all that remains to be done is for the coun- cil to ordain that such convent

It Is confined to no one party, but men of all parties, all trades and occupations are coming togeth her and making com mon cause in behalf of a restora ton oi government of the people for the people and by the people.
 We must and will won this battle without the use of money, or the aid of corporate power. If our adversa ries so desire let them pursue that course
 But there are times In the life of a nation like this when money and coercive influences are of no avail.
 There comes a time. when the uuicx ened consciences of an enlightened peo pie impel action, which neither money nor influence can check.
 That time, in my Judgment, is here Let every man from this hour forward perform this duty in manly and hon. orable way.
 Let this be a campaign of education and argument. Let our appeals be to the reason and patriotism of the Amer ican people. Let us be vigilant and unceasing in honest work for a right eous cause, and a glorious victory in November will crown our efforts.

The democratic party, while favoring the reform measures repudiated by the republican national convention, has an- other remedy. It would, by legislation in large degree cut off the streams of money which under the present system are flowing from every home in the land and emptying into the coffers of the trusts.
 It would leave in the pockets of the producers and laborers of this land every dollar of the money they earn. save only such amounts as may be needed for the economical administra ton of the government.
