IT IS TO LAUGH

For many years good many Alaska newspapers and some platform speakers have called the Delegate from Alaska Slippery Jim"
 About two years ago seven members of the Alaska Territorial Senate-senators Tanner TripD. Breeding, Willard Ray and Roden and the late Senator Bruner- wrote letter to the Secretary Of the Interior in which they said n effect that the people of Alaska were not supporting the proposition to build government rail road because of their interest in public ownership but because of their interest in the railroad, and that they would be content if they got railroad by some other method s the government preferred to have it that way Forthwith Delegate wickersham and his support CTS attacked these seven Alaska Senators for "oppos ing government railroad. and dubbed them the Slip pery Seven.
 A letter was produced from Delegate wickeFsham written 15 months before the socaied Slippery Seven Senators had written their letter in which the Delegate had taken practically the position on the rail road question as that taken by the Territorial Senator's
 The Empire commenting upon these circumstances said ar the quotation sisns): After all there seems to be more in the Slippery Jim nickname than in the Slippery Seven"
 whereupon the Dispatch attacks The Empire for referring to the Delegate as Slippery Jim"

 When the President in his speech at the Mayors luncheon Monday declared that Amerca asks nothing for herself but what has right to ask for human ty he translated the to Germany out of the lan- guaee of diplomacy into the language of the people
 That is what the United States means in this crisis. As the President so fehcitously expressed it; We want no other nations property we wish to question no nations honor we wish to stand seshy in the way of development of nation we want nothing that we cannot ge by our own legitimate enterprise and by the inspiration of our own example; and standing for these things s not pretenson part to say that We are privileged Co stand for what every nation would wish Go stand for speak for those things which an humanity must desire
 Had the Presidents note to Germany represented anything less than this inherent ideasm of the Amer. can people, it would have been greeted by no such mighty chorus of approval lie himself would not have been appauded in the streets of New York as no other President has been appauded within the memory of living When the Westminster Gazette called the note Germany the greatest single event Of the war note and that spirit and are the soul of the Republic.
 It is because the force of America is the force Of moral principle that there anything else that she loves and that there is not anything else for which she will contend. that the country has responded mani. mousy to President Wilson's leadership He stands forth merely Chie Magistrate of the Nation not merely as executive head Of the government, but as the very embodiment of that moral principal without which the Republic could not live
 One of the Paris newspapers calls the Presidents note Germany ultimatum. It was not an ultimat um in form or substance but the spirit back oi t is ultimatum and that spirit is che spirit to which the privileged to stand for what every nation would wish to stand for" If Germany does not wish to stand for it. so much Che worse for Germany.

 When the Presidents note to Germany on the Lusi- tanla was published the Associated Press gathered Q symposium of opinions covering all parts of the coun- try and journals of every shade of political opinion
 A comparison of them shows that every important newspaper in the United States with the exception of few Journals not printed in English took almost ex- acty the same view of the note All approved it; and what is true of the newspaper opinions true of the public men who expressed themselves upon the same subject. This country was thinking with one mind and writing with one hand. if this unofficial vote Of approval had been the result of binding caucus it could not have been more harmonious.
