quite clear. Moreover, what adds greatly to chn- fuse the mind is the report that the charges were even known to the Deannratic Territorial Com. mitteman at tie time Strnne was appndAted governor. What do ynn think of that? If this is true, Alaskans will find way to bury that bunch of politicians in the ignominious grave they have dug for themselves.
 However, the charges were not made public, until the Ex had been decapitated, and the pre- sumption is that they would have never been made public had he resigned But that is where the rub came in. He could not resign because our ex-delegate, who knew all about the charges held club over him. Strong was between the devil and the deep sea, so to speak. If he had resigned, his action would have been interpreted as throwing down the ex-delegate, and the latter would have exposed him. Of that, he had no doubt. On the other hand, while he was threat ened by the Democratic machine; it was that same machine that had secured his appointment as Governor at time when it was in possession of the facts of the charges. Under the circum- stances, he preferred trust that the machine would not expose him, especially when the ter ritorial committeeman of the party cogr eant of the facts in the case, had recommended ms
 ppointment. In that predicament he defed the machine to,show it's hand. And it wouldn't have shown it's hand, but President Wilson came to the conclusion that the joke had gone far enough and appointed real American as Governor. Meanwhile, Maloney whose sympathy is with the Elk enters into the race to defeat Sulzer for the nomination at the Primary election as pun ishment to the machine for the treatment ac- corded Strong. It is then that the machine in self defense comes out with the charges in order to show that it had reasons to oppose Strong. Which it had, as everybody must admit Never theless, the whole makes dirty mess to hand out to the voters. The expose, however, will not end here and we predict an infamous death for the Democratic party in Alaska-a just re- ward

OUR OWN DEDUCTION.

Our Ex-Governor passed through yesterday, a passenger on the steamer Humboldt on his way goodness knows where but surely not to Washington, D. C.. where he used to cut quite | feure. And to think that he never stopt to bid goodbye to his old friends, Republicans and Democrats alike. Many will surmise that he was in hurry to get out and away from inhospi- table environments and incidentally we are free to say that many he is leaving behind feel the same about that
 Of late we have often been asked why it was the Democrats leaders nf Inc martyr in Alaska, had not brought charges against ex-Governor Strong long before he was dismissed, since those charges already proven, were known to them for years prior thereto. To those of us who have never been allowed to look behind the curtain the reason for that dilatory proceeding is not

PUFF THEM TO WORK.

From reliable reports we have reached the conclusion that there are too many idlers in town these days. and they should be put to work on the rock pile if necessary. man who does not work these days when the country is doing its utmost to produce. bears watching, for he is not the right kind of patriot. He is leech: a blood-sucker, because he is only consumer when he should be a producer to the utmost
 A business man said yesterday that there were large number of idlers who could be seen lettering about without any visible means of sup port. He even said that one man refused to work for five dollars for nine hours work. In Alaska where working seasons are short-fshine and mining, man who refuses that wage should be compelled to move on or break rock for his board
 An easy way to find out whether such men are evil designers is to make them show how many Liberty bonds or thrift stamps they have bought. From what we have been told we don't know but what it would be 8 good plan to round them up and if found without valid reasons for being idle, the city has much street filling to do. No man who has the interest of the country at heart should waste time in lettering about. Round them up Chief! Every true American is backing you.

UP TO THE VOTERS AGAIN.

Tomorrow, the voters shall express their preference for the men whom they want candi- dates at the fall election. This is in pursuance with the "queer'' primary law enacted for the Territory. We say "queer' because it may be the means of sending man to make laws for us who is utterly incompetent. A wave of pop ularity may nominate vagabond-or Cana dian to become candidate for election when a man competent must remain behind and await the pleasure of the primary law.
 Many men can be found who may be said to ho competent to take hand i'll enaCtiny laws for others, but who are not fond of going to a lot of trouble, such as primary election. These men will never ask for the nomination but will remain at home and the incompetents but other wise popular will be nominated and elected Results-bum laws.
