WASHINGTON-He Help!
] Call at the department OF state!
; Call out the minute men of the
constitutions
The bolsheviki are corrupting the
! Alaskan Indians. The American!
people have been asleep.
| The Indians of Alaska who, Incl
dentally, are our fellow citizens, are
commonly supposed to be mere saw
ages. They're not supposed to have
! any ideas except some concerning
the possibilities of earning an exist
ence in their fishing boats IN the face
of tremendous inroads by the big
canning companies.
But the critters are doublecroSsing
us. They're going so far as to kid
some of our most revered political
leaders and institutions and to in
sinuate that there's something funny
about our modern social customs and
advanced habits of life. Savages
aren't supposed to know anything
about our domestic politics or how
civilized persons live, SO it is per-
fectly obvious that nothing but in.
sidious red propaganda could inspire
such subversive attacks.
Evidence that the "savages" are
sticking their tongues out at us comes
in recent issues of the Alaskan and
the Alaska Fisherman, respectively,
a weekly and monthly published al
Petersburg and Ketchikan, Alaska, by
Indians and primarily for Indians.
Look at this editorial from the
Alaskan which actually hints that
there is bunk in American politics:
'"The Hearst papers for September
1 announce that Herbert Hoover will
oppose the league of nations if he
runs for president. Good for Herbert.
We expected that Herbert would open
up on the reds in America, the
soviets in Russia, the Turks in Ar
menia or the Boxers in China but
the league of nations will answer
his purpose just as we'll as any OF
them. It's good campaign issue
and will strike a popular chord and
the poor decrepit old league will not
strike back at Herbert.
Douglas daily dispatch., 1927-10-23
WASHINGTON al
LETTER SKI

''The Borahs, the Reeds, the Hiram
Johnsons and all those statesmen
who assaulted the league in the days
of its strength and vigor will observe
with great interest this brand new
champion as he buckles in his armor
to combat the league. With Herbert
in the field to oppose all entangling
alliances with European powers the
selection of the republican ticket for
1923 will be the easiest thing in the
world.
Hoover and Thompson, why not?
With Herbert pounding the league
and Big Bill jumping on King George
and the whole Buckingham Palace
outfit, how could domestic issues be
intruded into a campaign? This
great nation will not stand for any
interference with our external affairs
by the league, neither will we for a
minute tolerate the doninatio;S OF
George the Third in our internal
policies.
1--WE doubt if our aspiring states
men can be trusted to smash George
Rex and the league with such vigor
as the American people demand, but
we are confident that Herb and
'Bilp would deliver the goods. Again
we say the republican ticket should
be Hoover and Thompson"
The nerve of them redskin fellers,
implying that any of our great
statesmen ever dodge important Is
sues! Treason as great or worse is
uttered by Mr.. S. G.. Davis, an Indian
travelling evangelist of Alaska, in an
article in the September Alaska FISH
erman, in which Davis asks what is
civilization. He says:
"Does it mean robbing banks and
taking part in hold-ups? Or does
it mean making moonshine and hav-
ing redlight districts where women
sell themselves?
"a man told me that inventions
were civilization. Look at automo-
bilesI Yes, look at the robberies
done with automobiles, look at the
girls drunk and ruined in automo-
biles, and the lives lost by such
inventions. What about the flying

More Truth Than Poetry
By JAMES J. MONTAGUE
TOO SOFT TO BE TRUE

I thought for while that no more I'd
need pay
A fairly large share of my all
To watch the professional ath-a-letes
play
The national game of baseball
"Why go to the trouble to witness a
game"
Said I. with nonchalant air
AS the news of the recent corrivalry
came
Via radio, straight to my chair
Il can hear the whole thing from the
very beginning
Play by play as recited from inning
to inning"
Moreover I deemed it was needless to
spend
What month of my labor will
bring
To look at two hard-featured huskies
contend
In that square which is known as
the ring.
'The announcer will give me the de-
tails" said L
"Of these wildly exciting events
1 shall witness the scrap through his
vigilant eye
And with never a cent of expense.
Within a years time I may save
enough cash
To journey to Paris and make quite a
splash"
And then it occurred to me: Maybe
some day
The thrifty promoters of sport
Will observe that their profits are slip
ping away
And will cut the broadcasters OIL
short.
If enough of the customers function
like me
And the news of these contests await
In their lowly thatched cots, it is easy
to see
That there will not be much of a
gate"
And that's what I'm terribly nervous
about
I certainly hope that they won't find
that out!
