Football Is Cause.

Football Is Cause.
IF the undergraduates at Penn.
sylvania State College are
- able to play baseball, tennis
soccer, engage in fencing, track
and gymnastics, just to name few
of their activities-it is because
Hugo Bezdek turns out an at.
tractive football eleven.
According to the latest figures
Penn States football team fol
1923 made something like $780,.
900. Every other form of ath.
letics at the college was a pitiful
financial failure. Football pays
for all of them.
This is something for the re.
formers to consider.

How Ketchel Got the Name
Of Steve.

How Ketchel Got the Name
Of Steve.
IT'S funny how certain mon
ikers stick to fighters even
= when they are plastered on
for a kid.
Years ago Jim Coffroth nick
named Willie Britt (brother OF
James E.) Willus. Most people
thought it his real name. Willus
was an amateur fighter in his
youth and was some shucks, too.
He taught Jimmy the game and
managed the latter while.
Later on he managed Bat Mel
son and later he got Ketchel.
They were queer pair:
KetcheI, big, boyish and playful
like a bear; Britt, small, snappy,
full of business and speed:
Ketchel used to call Willus by
that deadly sober monicker John.
Then Britt, by way of retaliation,
called Ketchel the old cowpuncher
name Of Steve and the names
stuck.

Johnston sent his right mltt OUT
rather slowly and with a weak
rather uncertain smile, said:
"Hello, hello, how are you?"
There was a pause. Neither
said a word for a moment or two
when the stranger piped, "You
don't seem to remember me, dc
you JIMMY"
Johnston smiled rather sheepish-
ly and replied: "Well, to tell you
the truth, don't remember you
but your face IS FAMILIAR"
The other fellow broke into
loud laugh and said:
"WelI, YOU OUGHT TO RE
MEMBER ME-. I SAT YOU
DOWN IN THAT RING IN
THERE WITH A SMACK ON
THE KISSER, YEARS AGO, sc
HARD THAT 1T ENDED YOUR
CAREER AS A FIGHTER---I'M

The Alaska fisherman., 1924-05-15

Troy, were directing the machine, you constantly induced certain Ma tives to vote for Sulzer, and that was all right.
 But since I came back from school and business in the States, and since I have had the nerve to expose your hypocrisy, your duplicity, you now tell the world that the paramount issue today is the illiterate Indian vote." Is it?
 I hold today that the paramount issue is whether or not hypocrits like you, Stroller, and you, Troy, will continue to bask in the favor of high public officials and with your Democratic papers, continue to poi son the minds of citizens.
 A real pioneer from Juneau wants to know if old Shep. knows of any Indian that "could make a bigger mistake than he did in the Pioneers old age bill. He got in on the vote and then turned them down."
 * *
 I see that Shep. and Jake Will jams are going about like two pals. The kind of illiterate that Shep ap- proves of is the kind that follows him. "Ain't that the truth?"
 Of all the wars fought by Indians # ho of %1oS1 and country, there was always to be found renegate Indians who played the part of the betrayer.
 * *
 One thing about the Stroller and that is he never misses Communion Sunday. Isn't it shame that his church uses those small individual cups?
 Citizens should always remember when reading the Juneau Empire and Stroller's Weekly that it is perfectly natural for these Democratic papers to attack any real Republican who might be elected to public office with the exception of certain bi- partisan Republicans. These bi-par- tisan Republicans are we'll known, but simply to illustrate, will name R. E. Robertson, H. L. Faulkner, Jack Mcbride, H. T. Tripp, Charlie Gold stein, Izzie Goldstein, all of Juneau, and Howard Ashley of Skagway. These men are the type of Republic ans CD who enjoy the strongest kind of support from John w. Troy, the mouthpiece of the Demo-Republi- can machine.

HOWARD ASHLEY

Howard Ashley of Sksgwey is an illiterate.
 If he would arrange a time, I would be pleased to debate with him at Skagway on the issues which he himself says are paramount. These issues would fall of their own weight because they are false. His real plank is his absolute subserviency to the interests of the White Pass Railroad.
 Let the Skagway people do lit tie thinking of their own and they will see that Howard Ashley, illit- crate candidate of the big interests, Is not a friend of Skagway.
 This candidate is in favor of build- ing road with federal funds to the Denver Glacier "for the purpose of tapping the wood supply and for a tourist drawing card"
 This road to Denver Glacier leads no where and there is no wood SUD- ply to talk about there; nor is there anything there for tourist to rave about.
 The truth is that if road is built to the Denver Glacier, the peo- pie of Skagway won't get their road to the summit, and so the White Pass will continue to charge $12O or more per ton for a forty mile haul.
 The people of Alaska should be in terested in the road to the Summit where it would join a British road. Such road would be the greatest drawing card for tourists ever pro- posed because with this road built, tourists would bring their cars by the thousands, disembark at Skag- way, stop there two or three days,
The Alaska fisherman., 1924-05-15

Troy can guess at once just exactly how this arch Democrat enjoys giv- ing the Republicans a chance to have FAIR FIGHT.
 It beats everything how some peo- pie can carry water on both should CTS. If it were not for the federal machine, headed by the so-called Re- publican Governor, men like Troy would not stay in this Territory long.

then travel by automobile to White Horse, and on down to Dawson, down the Yukon to Fairbanks, back over the Richardson highway and then back to Seattle. Can you beat this trip with your little road to Denver Glacier for wood six inches or so in diameter?
 This illiterate candidate favors building a JuneauSkagway road, which he says is practical, feas- ible proposition to link up two AL askan cities and is strongly sup ported in Juneau. The strong pull for this road is in the last "strong- ly supported in Juneau" and would permit the sheep-minds of Juneau to get their contraband by auto. How much would this road cost, Ashley? And why not road to the Summit that would permit cheaper freight for the interior? That would open up the rich Atlin district. That would make the Mayo district accessible. And open up numerous properties in the interior, all of which would make business for Skagway.
 Do not forget it, MT. Skagway Voter, your future lies in getting an automobile road to the Summit. Men like Perry M. Hern deserve your support. The Declaration of 1nde- pendence was directed against the bosses of Ashley. Are you going to help the British owners of Howard Ashley break Perry Hern's back merely because he wants to make a real city of Skagway instead of a city of dead mems bones?
 We need more of Paul Revere's stuff in Skagway and less of Bene- dict Arnold
