MIR. WlCkERsHAM'S SUCCESS,

Election is over and so are the tlresome controversies that always precede those events. and now that party lines have been laid on the shelf for a time, the people of Alaska can cooperate in working for their mutual interests.
 Consistent with it's political poli- cies and with what it believed to be for the best interests of Alaska, The Citizen opposed the reelection of James Wickersham as delegate to congress. But The Citizen sub mits to the will of the majority of the voters of the Territory, and in the interest of Alaska's welfare is prepared to give Mir Wickersham all the aid in it's power in furthering his work in Washington on behalf of the people of the North.
 Throughout the recent campaign. The Citizen maintained that the election was party issue. and not one of personality on the part of the candidates. As man and a citizen, this newspaper is an admir- er of Mir. Wickersham, but when the next election comes around. it will oppose him again on party issues as it has done in the past
 The Democratic club can be of much aid to MT. Wickersham in his efforts for Alaska's development, and that the club and each of it's members will be ready to assist him in every possible way is cer- tain. The Citizen feels that it is not in the wrong in pledging the local Democracy's assistance to MT. Wickersham in Alaska's interests for the next two years.
 In offering to Mir Wickersham it's congratulations and sincere sup port in his official duties. The Citi- zen wants it understood that it's only opposition to him is due to his political utilization, and not to his personal ability.

THE "POOR" INDIAN.

Much sympathy has been aroused in the States by missionaries for the poor" Indians of Alaska, who are declared to be the victims of the white trash" of the Territory. This pathetic appeal on behalf of the Alaskan natives, as it is made by the missionaries, has evidently stirred up much pity for the natives of the Territory.
 But, after all who would not eX- change his condition for that of the Indian, even in Alaska? The Indians are protected by federal gov ernment in every way-morally, fin ancially, and socially. The Indian has the choice of all the lands. He never has to pay taxes. The game laws seldom apply to him. The Indians are given all the education they desire free of cost to them selves. In most cases they are pensioned, and medical care is pro- wided them free. An Indian never goes to war unless he creates the war himself. The government main tains high salaried officials who have nothing to do but to study out methods for improving the welfare of the Indians and providing for their protection.
 The social evil may run rampant in white communities. Undue tempta- tions may be placed before the white men and women; the white men may white women may go astray and families be ruined, and the govern ment will stand by and take no hand unless induced to do so. But with the Indians it is different. A white man leading an Indian man or wo- men astray morally is almost cer- tain to get the whole machinery of justice working against him, and if he escapes the penitentiary it is a modern wonder
 In most states Indians are carried free upon railroads. They have lit tie to worry them, while they en- joy much freedom. Then who would not be an Indian. as far as life's necessities are concerned?
 But in spite of all this protection and care given the Indians, the peo- pie of the States are asked to con- tribute out of their savings to aid

Governor S Office
 To Have Library

More office space is to be immed- lately provided in the old mission building that houses the office of the governor of Alaska, says the Juneau Empire. The large room in the north end of the building which has heretofore been used as store room is to be remodeled and fitted up and furnished so that it can be put to better use. A part of the space will be taken up with the Alaska government library and a portion for general office purposes.
 The old ramshackle building has been accumulating material for the Alaska museum and library for sev- eral years and much of the library collection in unavailable when want ed for the reason that it has been packed away because there has here tofore been no library room fitted up to receive it.
 Gov, Walter E Clark made repeat ed efforts to get an appropriation to provide more room so that the library could be made available but was not successful. Very recently the treasury department authorized the governors office to have the work done and a call was issued by Gov. J. F. A. Strong the other day for bids to do the work.

FIGHTING FROM THE DARK

If a man calls another up over the telephone and criticises him. and the critic fails to reveal his iden- tity, the supposition is that the man who refuses to give his name is anything but honorable or brave And the same thing should apply to the man who writes letters to newspapers under an assumed name for the purpose of criticising some body that he is afraid to attack per sonally.
 Newspapers are glad to receive communications concerning matters of public interest. provided the names of the writers are given. It matters little to the public who gives voice to an idea as long as there is nothing of a personal na- ture in the communication. and thus letter of that kind may be pub lshed without harm, even if the writer's name is not attached to it.
 But there is a vicious kind of contributor to newspapers who at tempts to keep in the dark while he attacks some other person over an assumed name. This practice should be prohibited by law.
 In the recent political campaign letters were published purporting to come from Subscriber" or a Reader" and these letters usually reflected upon one or more of the candidates. If the writers were hon est in their opinions, or were In position to back up their ideas and criticisms. they would have had no occasion to withhold their true names.
 Personal criticisms published in a newspaper over the name of q Reader" or a Subscriber" carry with them little weight, and are suggestive of lack of good faith on the part of the writer The man " ilo httpS III lHt udTk Willie ne IS trying to injure another person is worthy of no consideration and newspapers should refuse to publish such criticisms.
 A little more than week ago local newspaper which is published in Fairbanks twice month appear ed with the whole front page devot- ed to slurring attacks upon people of the community It was found later that the offensive literature published in the newspaper was not written by it's editor, but by a man who was trying to keep his identity in the dark
 Perhaps the man who made these vicious attacks in an underhand way is not quite as bad as his ac- tions indicate, but there should be some way of teaching him that he should either come out in the open and fight, or keep quiet

REPUBLICAN GAINS.

Republicans of Fairbanks, who have been in hiding, so to speak, since the Democrats took charge of things. are now getting enthused over the victories of their party in the States. They are freely predicting that at the next Presidential election there will be great Republican land slide" and that the Democrats of the country will be buried far be- meath the expected slide"
 It is best, however, for the Re publicans to keep quiet little long CT. for there are many reasons why their dream of victory two years from now will probably not come true
 Undoubtedly the Republican gains in many of the states is a result of financial stringency of the last two years. No sooner was it announced that Woodrow Wilson, a Democrat had been elected, than the big fin ancial interests of the country start ed their old trick of discouraging investments, for the purpose of bring ing about financial panic. In the past, these financial panics, brought about by the financial interests that must depend upon a high protective tariff have usually served to restore Republican popularity.
 When he took office, President Wilson knew that a panic was due. Accordingly he set about to arrange some plan to prevent it's effect, but the panic was ordered and delivered before MT. Wilson had time to get his plans into working order
 MT. Wilson knew that if the gov ernment could take the control of the money out of the hands of the big financiers, panics could be fore

Stories About Prominent People.

Hawthorne was called up as witness in a criminal case in Salem. and the cross-eXamining lawyer for the defense said to him:

 "'Yes, sir
 What was your last noyel?'

 "'"The Marble Pawn" eh? And is there a word of truth in The Marble Pawn" my man?'
 "It-but it. stammered Flaw thorne-'it is q work of fiction
 Never mind that thundered the lawyer. Never mind that. Answer my question, yes or no, Is there word Of truth in this Marble Pawn" or whatever you call it?
 Er-no, said Hawthorne.

stalled So he secured the advice of some of the best economists of the country. and after much work a bill to proyid federal reserve banks throughout the country. which would control the country's finances and counteract the work of the finan- ciers. was prepared and finally adopted
 At first the leading bankers look ed upon the federal reserve banks measure with suspicion. but after they had carefully investigated it. they gave if their hearty support
 But it is truly said that a big oak cannot grow from a small acorn in one day. and the intricate money system prepared by the admnistra- tion could not be put into working order without months of previous working out of details There were some delays. too. in the matter of endorsing the men appointed by the President 10 be members of the federal banking board Whether these delays were unavoidable or Were the work of crafty senators who were endeavoring to postpone the operation of the system. is an uncertainty. but just the same. the delays prevented the federal bank ing system from getting into opera ton until after this years election And all the time. the financial stringency was serving to embitter the people against Democracy.
 But before the end of this month. many of the new federal banks will be in operation Then things may be expected to change. Thus. if the banking system proves to be all that il promises. the next two years will witness new prosperity throughout the country. unless, per haps the indirect results of the af- fairs in Europe may interfere.

 President Wilson has only had time to lay the foundation of his constructive work in Washington. and as tte country sees what he is accomplishing, it may be expected that his administration will grow in popularity until the American public will send him back for another four years of constructive administra- ton of their affairs.

CHICAGO, Oct. 25. - Cotton raisers of the southern part of the United States who have suf- fered severe losses as result of the interference of commerce with Europe since the war start ed are to be aided by the fash ion designers.
 At the convention of the Fash ion Art league, held in this city yesterday, it was decided that styles in America next year will include wide cotton skirts. By making cotton garments popular, it is hoped to create demand in this country for the product.
 The fashion designers are of the opinion that hereafter the United States will create it's own styles, as the war, it has been declared, is destroying the fashion headquarters of the world in Paris.

PARENTS AND TEACHERS.

Cooperation between parents and teachers is being fostered in nearly all parts of the States, and the re- suit is found to be excellent. What are known as "parent-teacher associ- ations" have been organized for the purpose of bringing parents and teachers in closer touch.
 According to the report filed a few days ago by Superintendent Karrer, of the Fairbanks public schools, he is in need of closer un- derstanding with the parents of many of the pupils, and it seems that some effort should be made to bring the teachers and parents of this city in to closer relationship.
 In California, every school has it's own parent-teacher association and the individual associations of each city have a central organiza- tion for the purpose of cooperative effort throughout the city.
 This system provides that all the teachers of school must belong to its parent-teacher association which holds monthly meetings. Every parent, especially the mother, is urged to become a member. also, and seldom is the request to join declined
 At these monthly meetings, there are papers read on educational work and later there is a general discus sion concerning various matters of local interest in the school. To keep the meeting from being too

CORRUPT JOURNALISM.

Charges have been freely made 10 the effect that the Times sold its editorial support to the Democrats for a financial consideration. and the Times has failed to deny the charge. It has also been charged that the News Miner sold its editor lal support to Delegate Wickersham for financial consideration, and. like the Times. the News Miner has failed to deny the charge.
 The fact that the Times was never a Democratic newspaper until one day it suddenly bloomed out as a supporter for Mir Bunnel and the local Democratic ticket. lends color 10 the belief that the Times is only Democratic when r is paid 10 be Democratic.
 And what is true of the Times is true of the News Miner. when ap- piled to it's support of Mir Wick ersham, for formerly the News-Min CT was bitter antagonist of the delegate.
 If these newspapers are not guilty of the charges made against them, it would be well for them to make a convincing denial, To attempt 10 make denial in an eyasiye manner will only strengthen the popular feeling that the two daily newspa- pers of Fairbanks are looking more to their pocket books than to the welfare of the community. and will tend wonderfully to discount their editorial influence in the future.
 There are people In Fairbanks who are so positive of the guilt of the two newspapers in the alleged selling of their editorial opinions, or. in other words, of lying to their readers for a specified consideration, that there can be no doubt that bet of considerable amount could easily be arranged to prove that the owners of neither paper will go before a notary public and take oath that they have not changed their editorial policies for pay. Anyhow, let's see what they will attempt to do in the matter of making denials,
 The corruption of newspapers is the most dangerous thing confronting society Morally and ethically it is far worse than vote selling and is the most contemptible kind of politi- cal bribery, for newspapers are supposed to reflect public sentiment and sincerely to have the welfare of the community at heart.

 But this sort of imposition against the public will bear no fruit for the owners of the two newspapers The man who is known to be a habitual liar has few friends and makes but little impression on the world about him, and the same is true of the newspapers that sell their policies for few paltry dollars.
