MAKING MISTAKES

Bryan's brlsndliness for Alaska is unQuesuouably sincere, although critics win smile and say that it is easy enough to promise when you are obviously not in position to per form. It has been a fair criticism Of Bryan that he ls ever ready to promise people what he may think they want. and this char acteristlc is offered as a req son for considering him unsafe for power; because 1t requires dlscernment to distinguish be tween wants and whims. On the other hand, there are those who argue that power has a sobering effect. and believe that if placed in power. Bryan would be as cOnserya. tive as Roosevelt, for instance, ever was.
 However that be, there is acute common sense in Byan's remarks on Alaska, as there generally is in an his remarks. Government from afar is repugnant to the popular idea Of government; the treeborn citizen rebels at the idea of being governed without having something to say in the matter. And as Bryan says the privilege of making mistakes is as sacred a privilege as any other. We can make them more intelligently than Washington can-.Fairoanks Times.
