SHEEP MINDS
Juneau IntellectUals and False
 Impressions

propllated the money necessary to insure the sending of former mayor Robertson to Washington to advance the proposal to divide Alaska"
 The situation at Juneau is a most peculiar one. First, Juneauites be- heVe that everybody in Alaska feels about different matters the same as they do. Secondly, the real Juneau lte cannot understand why the rest ot the Territory should not let Gu neau do it." Third, Juneau is per- fectly satisfied to let John w. Trov. betrayer of his benefactor, Governor Strong, direct both their minds and their consciences in matters political and spiritual.
 Since these statements are true. Juneau has never considered the rlghtness of digging down into the taxpayers pocket, lifting therefrom $l,OOO and sending R. E. Robertson, cannery attorney, on political jaunt to Washington, D. c. This act, tho. was Tn line with John Troy's morals when 1t touches the public's money. His paper has waxed fat on the public printing given to him for sev- eral years without public bid; then when Will Steel forced their hand, Troy would get the jobs by out and out trickery.
 The little gang can still run Ju- reau, but the other citizens of Alas ka have not yet handed over their minds to John w. Troy, betrayer of his benefactor Governor Strong. The proof? The Republican Robertson, who is so strongly supported by the Democrat Troy filed as national com mitteeman and when he felt that the battle was going against him, he got some Coolidge bait"
 Then the Empire says editorially, "Those independents whose conscience will permit them to vote in the Re publican primary should vote in it, which is nothing more than yelled instructions to Democrats to go into the primaries and dictate the Re- publican candidates.
 The citizens have spoken. With the exception of the sheep minds Of Juneau, the stand-pat, the reaction ary candidates, who call themselves Administration candidates" have been decisively defeated.
 Alaska is still safe, MT. Stroller White and MT. John w. Troy, betray- CT of your benefactor Governor Strong. The Indians are not in the saddle; laws will be obeyed, and we rope the Gay comes soon when the prohibition officer can get up his nerve and do his duty and relieve this Territory of certain highly in tellectual voters who have never yet

WHO ARE REPUBLICANS?
How the Machine Works and
 Who They Are

system of government that we have because Alaska is defenseless. It is defenselesS because we have no rep lesentation in our Congress of equal rank with States. AS a result, cer- tain Senators and Representative are gradually acquiring the right in Congress to represent" us. Among these men are Senator Wesley l.. Jones, Congressman Hadley, of Bell ingham, the Portland Oregon repre- sentative, Watkins, and the Cali fornia Congressmen, among whom is Arthur Free of Fresno.
 These men occupy the command irg positions in Congress and while they allege that they are trying to. save our fisheries, they are trying tC save them for their own consti- tuents.
 Working hand in hand with these despoilers of Alaska is the federal machine and their henchmen. As the willing tool of these foreign despoil- CTS we find Scott c. Bone, that smooth, suave, educated, cultured gentleman placed in Alaska to put the touch of Responsibility" on their work here. From the moment this man arrived in Alaska he has been trying to "carry water on both shoulders" but without success for the simple reason that factions speak louder than words"
 His first act was to insult all fishermen and those dependent upon our fisheries for their living. It was in the matter of the Territorial Fish Commission. This commission today is serving under recess ap~ pointment.
 On this commission there are serv- ing none but we'll known friends of the cannery system, with the excep- tion of Calvin Hazlett, son of George Hazlett. If Calvin knew the diff ference between a humpback and a bull-head, he would be an excellent fish commissioner, but his trouble is, to use his own words, Hickman knows enough for all of us, and what he says goes."
 As a part of the federal machine, there is Karl Thiele, a very smooth, "friend of everybody" but a sub servient creature of the governors. MT. Thiele is the political adviser and agent of Governor Bones. Per haps this relation between these two men cannot be helped for Thiele owes his job directly to the Cover nor. At any rate, he is an import ant part of the machine. It should be remembered that Thiele is the Republican organizer appointed by the National Republican Committee.
 The third cog in the federal ma-

 ve! !orGeneral and Secretary of Alas ka. His selection from their stand point is very wise indeed for by his acts he has shown himself to be but a piece of putty in the, hands of his manipulators. He was a Democrat ir the last administration, but since a Republican sun is shining, the chemeleon has changed his color. Smith is now Republican.
 These three men today dominate Republican politics.
 Their first appointment was the Secretary of the Territorial Fish Commission, Barney Roselle, an ar dent and life long Democrat.
 Their second appointment was E. M. Policy, our $25O month tax col lector. This man was elected to the 1923 legislature as a Progressive. He got this reward for leaving the ranks of the friends who elected him but could not reward him further, and going ever to the Governor.
 The third appointment of this fed eral trio was that of Senator Cham Eerlain as school tax collector in the third divsiion. His commission" for doing this work covering about two months amounted to nearly $3,OOO.OO. Aside from the fact that the ap- pcintment was reward for his sub serviency to this federal machine, the public should consider the fact that this appointment was a public re- cognition that Senatorial drunks were in one class and as such were hon. cred citizens to be rewarded by lu- cretive jobs, and common drunks were in another class, to be thrown into jail and left there to rot or await bail.
 The third political act of this "Re- publican" trio, was their recent ap- pointment of R. J. Sommers as Highway Engineer for the Territory at $4,OOO.OO. The Democrat Juneau Empire says this is fine appoint nlent, and from it's standpoint, it is, for Sommers was the Democratic Surveyor General under Governor Riggs. We have no quarrel with MT. Sommcrs, but it should be known to the Central Republican Committee just how faithfully our Republican Governor Scott c. Bone and "Re- publican organizer Thiele" are serv- ing the interests of the Democratic machine.
 The point of all these remarks is this, there is no difference between the appointed leaders of the Re- publican party and the leaders of the Democrats in Alaska. Whichever side wins, the people always lose.

HOSPITAL EXPLAINS.
TREATMENT OF MAN
Emergency Doctors Say Case Com.
planned of Was Not Mis-
handled.

Complaint was made to the direc-
tors of the Washington Chamber OF

ter was referred to the committee

this committee.

disclosed that John Radolph, colored,
thirty-seyen years old. was brought
into the hospital in the ambulance
from 1st and Canal streets south
west at 2:45 am. February 3 and
treated for a laceration in his side
Ten stitches were taken in the
wound, and the man was placed in
the rest room. He left at O'Clock,
telling the Emergency Hospital au-
work.
The doctor in charge thought he
was in good condition. as the wound
was said not to have been serious
but he was instructed to return later
IN the day for another dressing,
which he did. The surgeon who eX-
amlned the wound at that time also
was of the opinion that the man
was tit to go. and permitted him to
leave. 1t was not necessary for him
70 go to bed, in the opinion of the
hospital surgeons, and if it had been
necessary it was pointed out he
would nave been placed in a ward.
