sition, no matter what 1t Is, and II 1t
does not, we hear about 1t. An editor
may say a thousand kind things about
man and adversely criticise him
once and lifelong enemy is made.
The newspaper will give free
notices and boost along given enter
tainment of some kind, and If the
editor or manager go, they are ex-.
pected to dig in their pockets and pay
the admission price, the same as a
human being. The boosts and free
notices are accepted, without thanks,
as matter of course. The newspaper
is expected to say something nice
about every movement, every function,
every entertainment, and every public
action or activity in the community.
Heaven, we are sure, will forgive the
newspaper man for the white lies he
daily tells, in the cause of harmony,
good feeling and public interest.
But aside from the trials and trib-
are bright spots in his life. In every
comnfunity-and in Anchorage especi-
alfy-there are people who really ap-
preciate the efforts of those whose
daily vocation is to publish the news
and make comment on local matters.
They are the people who make life
worth living; who have a kind word
to say for the paper; who don't get
sore every time the paper says some
thing not especially to their liking.
1t should be understood that a news
paper, from motives of self-interest, if
on no higher ground, is consistently
working in behalf of the community
and the country in which it is pub
lished There are many matters that
come up from time to time on which
no comment is made-not because,
as some people affect to believe-the
newspaper is afraid to speak out, but
rather because it is not considered by
the newspaper for the best interests
of the town to discuss the question,
whatever it may be. The newspaper
man knows about everything going on
in his town. If he published all he
knew he would not be in the news
paper business long. He. would not
be entitled to remain in it, He would
be a deterrant, rather than con-
structive force-Anchorage Times.

BoLsHEVlsM SPELLS RUIN

Those who make no pretense to a
knowledge of political economy, and
even the saner class Of socialists, are
gradually coming to understand the
utter hopelessness of Bolshevism. To
put oneself and family, and property,
in their keeping is to put to sea in a
storm in leaking boat, with an in
sane pilot. No prominent Bolshevik
has ever demonstrated his ability to
rule wisely or manage public affairs.
On the contrary, Bolshevism is essen
TALLY destructive, both to life and
property. 1t is entirely an experiment
with as much promise of desirable re-
suits as one expects from drunken
man letting off firecrackers in
powder magazine. -.A i
Bolshevism has destroyed hundreds
OF houses and barns; it has not built
one.
hBolshevism has burned countless
warehouses filled with supplies; and
planned, or erected, one to take their
place.
Bolshevism has tortured and killed
untold numbers; it has never brought
security and protection, and steady
income to one workingman.
sBolshevism has drained no sWamps,
ir,-iD Tod har
no schools where little children may
learn, or sanctuaries where man may
worship. 1t recognizes no God, and
no rights but those of its own brute
strength. Like any other ferocious
animal, it can, in a moment, tear
down, and in pieces, the work of
shevism build up and create. 1t offers
nothing whatever to make the world
better place to live in; it brings only
apprehension, fear. famine, and de-
spair
1t is an ignorant mob indulging in
wild, prolonged debauch, and must
oVeLtualy duu lHeVlCdDly pcIlSh HUM
its own lack of cohesion.
IT every man, woman and child in
the world was an active Bolshevik
thee would shortly be none left alive,
for. they would rend each other in
pieces, and the survivors would die
under the tumbling ruins of civiliza-
ton. The avalanche. the earthquake,
the tidal wave, and the cyclone are all
demon strations of irresistible power;
away everything in their path; yet
none of them endure.
Let any who incline toward Boil
shevism think on these things

THE TRIALS OF A NEWSPAPER
! MAN

The daily trials and tribulations of
the ordinary newspaper editor prob
ably surpass those of any other voca.
ton in the life of given community.
Ye editor is cussed if he does, and
cussed if he doesn't. It doesn't make
a particle OF difference what stand he
may take on given matter, he is sure
to Step on the delicate toes of somer
body, from whom roar Is imt1edi-
ately forthcoming. Not day passes
but he is importuned to say some
thing editorially about this, or that,
or attack this person or that person,
or praise or condemn this project or
that project. He is charged by al
legged labor leaders with running his
newspaper in the interests of the
moneyed classes. and charged by the
moneyed classes with being VERT
able Bolsheviki. 1t doesn't make a
bit of difference what position ne
takes, or what policy he pursues, his
every printed word calls down critic
ism from some source on this thick
head His motives are impugned, his
veracity questioned. his sincerity
doubted. Some paopie seem to i'm.
agine that the local newspaper should
agree with them on every given propo-

Nothing hurts business quite so
badly as the present mail service.
With boat once every four Or five
weeks it is nearly impossible for our
merchants to do business ON paying
basis. Stocks are held up; prices
drop between boats and seasons come
and go, but the mails stay away for
ever The past three months has given
us about two boats and a halt, with
freighter thrown in for good measure.
With airplanes reducing the time be-
tween New York and Washington to
eighty minutes, and with good train
service between these points it looks
