 There is just oac feature Of the whole thing that ia little disqulct- ing. ThIngs do not seem to be work. inc out according to the rules. Even Mr., Wilson is beginning to doubt q little and that is O bad sign for the rest of us. The president ie quoted az saying that the bill win only efsect tho cost of living slowly and indirect ,v If MT. Wilson said that 1t is true. Tut it is going to disappoint tre' mendoua lot nS peo>Ie. the people who looked for a drop in prices the morn. ing after the bill passed and the peo- p,e who looked for . drop in prices thG next week or the next month os Wno VIII took kOF V VEOP Ms ps 's' the next six months.
 That drop in prices which every enc was led to believe would come with the election of c democratic president and a democratic congress doesn't want to delay too long. Not until the next congressional or senatorial clec' tions for instance. nor until tho nex' presidential eiectidon. If 1t does so de lay there will be some mighty hard pickjngs for the democratic campaign snanaEers.
 But we must not condemn the bill Vet. It should have its full chance to prove the theoris of the president and tho brains of tho democratic party Certainly MT. Wilson is sincere In hia belief in the bill and the people must wait patiently for the result. Walt anyway until nearly time for another election. If the cost of living has not been reduced by then-well. we would not have any better off under re- publican administration. There is comforting thought In that.

Official Paper
NOME. ALAskA. DEC. 2s. 1918.

The new tartff bill Is all nicely roll ed up. signed sealed and delivered E., crything has been fixed just exactlv as 1t should be fixed and now all the people in the country have to do Is to sit down and quietly await the reduc. ton In the cost of living. A lot of people got up the morning after the Till was passed and expected to see ps ice of living already down several points. They were disappointed. Mar. ry drop the morning after. or the next or the next morning and there hasn't been any drop in the cost of anything yet. as far as anyone knows. Even the administration. which is re- sponsible for the bill is beginning to hedge a little. The president has just stated that the tariff bill will only sf- feet living cost slowly and indirectly. Slowly and indirectly Is not at all what has been promised tho people if they would only give the democrats a chance. There was nothing about slowly anld INDIRECTLY" in the promises made In the campaign speeches. The democratic party said that if it was given chance 1t would reduce the cost of living of the masses and. thS masses turned from the re- puRIisans and .gsyc the democrats n chaRce.
 The ayowed purpose of the new bill was to readjust the burdens of federal taxation % as to relieve tho cOnsum. ins naasses and place the heaviest weight upon the accumulated wealth. The bill was passed practically on strict party vote apd will go on record as the measure passed in conformity with the parity piedgea to the people The people will soon begin to look for some result from this bill.
 It ss perhaps little early to begin to demand any very great results from the passage of the bill. Its real test win be the erect that it will have on the prices of necessities and upon tho aSsrsgate living expenses of the aver age family.
 If the tariff will accomplish what is ita avowed purpose and what was cx- pscted of 1t by the people who gave tho democraticv party it's chance everyone win rejoice and be exceeding glad. anld the multitude will haii the dsmocratic party. But on the other hand t the nv bill should unfor- tunateIy fail of It's purpose the demo cratic party win bc in the position of not having made good and will have iot. cf explaining to do during the next psrDidsntiai campaign.

In the days when they had states men In the country there was gen tIeman who had considerable to dc with national affairs. His name wal Jefferson and he was the father of all democrats. That is he is claimed by ,be democrats as their father but the party has strayed far from the exam pie set 1t by the honored parent. How evr 1t was not with Mir. Jefferson as
 the father of democracy that We were
 going to deal. That founding Of the
 democratic party was quite an
 achievement D and undoubtedly the
 shade of the illustrous statesman looks
 down upon his present successor al
 the head of the loyal cohorts and is
 proud of the successor. Hut what we
 have in mind at present are 8 few
 words utteredby the founder of dem
 ccracy which seem to have some bear
 ing on a subject that should lie near to the heart of every Alaskan. That IS Sc If. government. And by that we m can Alaska for the Alaskans and a proper indulgence by them in the vital things of the territory. Mir. Jefferson said: "' have no fear but that ths result of cur experiment will be that men mny be trusted 10 govern them. selves without master" -.
 'rhnrc ire two things in that little sentence which are worth whilc think ing abnrt. for Mir. Jefferson was wise ana able man and did not. like some ot the present day statesmen. giye way to the uttering of pleutitudeness platitudes.
 In the first place AIr. Jefferson said that he had no doubt but that men could givern themselves without n master. He may have referred to a king CT an3cIcr when he used tn" w.r.i "r.,ster." hut we believe thnt 1t vas used in n Er,adcr sense and re- fcrrcd t any man or body of men set (. govern the TsoTie without the con- sent of tho people governed. For peo- plc who are ruled hy those in whose selection they have no choice are ns much governed by master ns are the people governed by an hereditary
 monarch. Therefore it is fair pre- sumption that Mir. Jef<rsQn meant by without maater without a voice in the selection of their own government officials.
 Tho whole fabric of our republic is built upon the idea that men can gov ern themselves. The. principle set down in that great document drawn up by the able and fearless men who freed the land from the tyranny of an English king. was that all men were free and equal. There was no limit placed on. this freedom and equality. no geographical lines were contempiat- cd which should mark off the land into sections which should be labeled. "ir this sectiop all men are free and equal and capable of seif-government. and another marked. "in this section all men arc free and equal but they are NOT capable of self-g government" No. the meh who started this country of ours on it's upward path to liberty never meant anything like that. When Mir. Jefferson said that men could be trusted to govern thspselvss without a master he meant all men who lived and worked and developed under the folds of our flag of liberty. He did not mean that the men Of 16assachuslfts were capable of ssh: :govsFnment VI ss the men of New JSes6V xere not .sd capable. He did not mean that be-. cause New York was . populous center it was any more capable of ssle-sov-
