THE QUEER FELLOW.

There are many queer things in this world. but the queereSt of them all is the thing that We have been taught 10 call MAN. Among the lat ter We find them queer in degrees. In other words. some are Queerer than others. For in- stance: the owner Of the Anchorage Times is what We call "back leg Republican" The ed- for Of the Times and manager is a dyed in the wool democrat. The latter has always been op- posed to our ex-delegate. So did the former. Yet. last year both switched of and fought for their old enemy. This alone would not constitute queer" doing; were il not for the fact that both have TO more love for the ex-delegate today. nor did they have when they fought for him last election. than they ever had but they switched a.f just to punish others; at least that is what chey say But We know better now. They switched of because of their environment. In other words. tley hadn't the courage of their con- viction. Yes sir. man is the QueereSt proposition we know of.
