A FOOLISH BUNCH

From our point of view, the leaders Of the Democratic party in Alaska today are foolish bunch. Otherwise they would do something. 70 illustrate: Supposing you have long and rough road to travel and you have tack in one of your shoes that is constantly irritating you wouldn't you stop to take it out? Of course you would. Only foolish man wouldn't. which is just what the leaders of that party are doing to- day.
 A certain democrat is now editing a republi- can sheet to the westward. and is continually hammering away at the party leaders in Alaska. He evidently cannot work in harmony with tho leaders, consequently, he is making of himself that tack in the shoe or the thorn in the side or whatever you prefer to call it. It occurs to us that probably he is after a job. Then why not give him what he wants and shut him up? This is why the leaders appear to be foolish bunch to us

A MERE DIFFERENCE OF OPINION.

At recent meeting of the council the clerk was ordered to institute an action against the school treasurer to compel him to deposit in the city treasury the money appropriated for the maintainance of the school by the last legisla- ture and paid over by the territorial official. as the law directs. to the school treasurer. This money which, according to the law can be used only for the maintenance of the school, is being held for that purpose by the school treasurer. From that arose contention which led to the suit which may be said to be mere difference of opinion and nothing more. as to the intent of the law.
 The council claims the money should have been first deposited into the city treasury to be in turn, on the order of the council, turned back to the school treasurer. The latter claims that since the money is payable by the territory to him. being the duly elected person to the of flee of school treasurer, with bond duly ap- proved. he does not have to deposit that money with the city treasury: and that is where the difference comes in. A mere technical point that will be decided by the court.
 In our opinion. the city is right and for this reason: Had it been intended that the school treasurer hold the money, the territory would have required security bond from that official. Whereas the security bond given by that of fcal is to the city and not to the territory. Therefore, conclude that the city is respon- sbe for all the money from whatever source for the maintainance of the school. Aside from the personal responsibility of the school treas urer: what recourse would the territory have in the event of misuse of the money? None what ever, as the city never had possession of the money. therefore could not be held responsible for something it never had However it is up to the court and not to us.

these are two he received a day or

parts of which read as follows:

Time TO Be Republicans.

While the national administration
appeals in every utterance, and IN
tons Of publicity" matter sent out
from every department and bureau,
for mon -partisanship" in time of war,
the vice President himself is sent
out to Wisconsin to urge Republicans
to vote for the Democratic candidate
for L. S. senator.
In the primaries, $4,000 voters
registered their approval of Lenroot'
(Rep.) and $1,000 for Davies (Dem.)
and now this amazing mon partisan
administration OF ours is to use all
its federal patronage and other power
to elect Davies. "Why?" do you ask "

crat" II would seem.

country to help place Democrat
favorable to him and his administra-
ton, it is too much.
We may conclude that. the Presi-
dent would have supported any other
Democrat nominated. as he supports
Davies. Why should we not think
so?
After this, We have our notion of
any man who objects to Republicans
following normal political course in
the political campaign. 1t is a poor
game that has rules for one set of
players and no rules for their op-
ponents.
The President and his close fol-
lowers have injected the most parti-
san of political methods into the
campaign thus early. Democracy
violated non-partisan observance in
Congress and then bitterly COM
planned because they were promptly
met by loyal Republican supporters of
every aggressive and efficient war
method.
The President is a partisan. He
makes no attempt to conceal that
fact. He advocates the adoption OF
principles which he regards as parti-
sanly Democratic and the election of
candidates whom he knows to be
Democratic in every partisan sense
What he does. other Democratic
leaders will do, for that is the high
way laid out for them.
y So far as we are concerned we be-
lieve it is time for Republicans to
advocate their principles and the cleo
ton of their candidates. They have
equal rights as partisans with the
President and other deserving
Democrats"

Mr.. Guernsey's Decision

Elsewhere in this issue we publish
an interview with former Congress
man Frank E. Guernsey. 1t is we'll
worth reading.
Mr.. Guernsey's announcement that
he has concluded not to contest for
the Republican Senatorial nomina-
ton is the action of a strong and
patriotic n an and is accompanied by
reasons which will appeal to every
thoughtful citizen.
To these reasons we might add a
two-fold reason, though it is but an
inference from Mr.. Guernsey's state
ment, namely: The Importance of
continuing in the United States Sen
ate a delegation which stands in
times of peace for protective tar
if and the other principles to which
Maine as a state is definitely COM
mitted. and which has shown that it
stands in time of war with the ad-
ministration ready to back it to the
limit in every legitimate measure for
the prosecution of that war to a sue
cessful Issue.
Add to this the great value Of pre-
vious senatorial experience in a
crisis like this. and you have a trio
of reasons which should appeal with
great force to the thoughtful voters
of Maine.
