was belligerent one Such condition of affairs

SEWARD, ALASKA, MONDAY, AUGUST 2S, 1916.

Political campaign times are coming and many of you will soon have the privilege of shaking some Alaskan statesmen by the hand You will hear them tell you how the same blood runs in their veins that courses through your own and proud of it. by heavens already Did you ever see a candidate in Swedish community Ger man community or an Irish community or a Liliputian community or any other old sort of a community that didn't come from the same race as the majority of the local population and very often from every nationality represented therein just as though any man of any tionay would vote for rascal of his race before voting for good man of another race
 Whenever man tries to get your vote by telling you that he of your nationality vote for else This is pretty safe rule to follow because the who tries to get votes in the manner stated is either lying is using his own ancestry that ought to be sacred feather his nest and therefore, he is not fit man to rep resent you.
 Some people do not seem to understand what the pres ent cry of "AmercaniSu' stands for Some minimizing people seem to imagine that AmecanSm means that you must forget your native country if it IS foreign one, but it is such thing. True Amercanism does mean, how ever to place America first and place America first who votes for schemng politician because he is German an IriShman, a Swede, an Englishman any thing else It is just the same way in business Men of nationality another try make good living by using their countymen It is just the very same the politicians and both should be looked upon with suspicion
 Of course, if a man of another race who might be bgoted against yours tries to get elected might alter matters, but bigot deserves to be beaten anyhow a though can say that Americans easily the broadeSt people earth and you choose lots of men without picking out the poorer ones There might be less narowness if all the people of the United States made it a rule to vote for of other national descent bi ,tbo tbn bnSf way of all is to forget that nationality stuff altogether while one is supposed to be an American citizen That is to forget it in relation to American politics and American life generally
