THE DUTY OF A CITIZEN

Senator Bonnet of the Oregon State Legislature in his recent campaign for reelection said in a speech delivered in the Salem Armory: Men of high purpose and complete honesty with a view to the welfare of the com mon people of the State should be in the state house.
 Your first duty as a citizen is to vote for the best man or wo- man as the case may be. If this is not done then the ballot box is failure in so far as reflection of public opinion is concerned. Trying to pick a winner has cost far too much in the past and is responsible for the present con- ditions in politics and govern ment. To deliberately cast your vote against the man you think best qualified merely because you think he cannot win, is the most un-American and cowardly thing a citizen can do-and don't think that you can escape pun iShment for this kind of an act, as your chickens come home to roost in the form of cowardly officials. No fight was ever won

to employment in order that the economic crises be passed safely.
 Still from the south comes re- ports of conditions that are ap- palling and beyond the concep- tion of those who have never suf- fered for want.
 Such resort to violation of any law to secure sufficient to feed and clothe and nourish. The Prohibition Laws become a ve- hicle for the greater violation.
 Instead of talking nullifica- cation of that law, an honest effort to give real prosperity will show wherein the breakdown of American laws lies.
The Alaskan., 1930-05-23

by running away. Stand up and be counted-it is the only way that conditions can be improv- ed. Oregon asks, Oregon needs your honest opinion. And in the name of good government, and in the name of humanity, and in the name of common decency I ask you to cast an honest vote on May 16."
 This speech is one that can we'll be applied in Alaska'S elec- tions with as great a benefit as would accrue to the State of Ore gon. It is criterion that can not be excelled by any standard set by the press of the Territory.
The Alaskan., 1930-05-23
WHAT COUNTS?

If Paul weren't a damned Si- wash I would be willing to fol- low his platform " So said a voter recently.
 Which leads to the observa- tion that regardless of whether Paul is right or not, regardless of whether he is working for the ketterment of the people of the Territory, some men are against him just because he is Indian" ,"
 That is a direct result of the AmericaniSm of such men as Troy, Pegues and other 100 per cent patriots who helped their country during the World War oy staying at home, stirring up other hates and animoSities.
 Issues and not personalities is what will bring greatest gooo to the country.

CHARGED WITH MURDER

Young Benson in Seattle was recently acquitted of the charge of murder, by jury of his peers. Driving at. a speed beyond de- gree of safety, he was out of control when he crashed into pedestrians and snuffed their lives out.
 Though he was acquitted by a jury, his conscience will never acquit him of the deed. No amount of regretting will ap- pease the sorrow of those who suffered by the deaths.
 Which brings the lesson home to drivers of cars in Petersburg No business is so pressing that a car must be driven on our mar row streets at twenty-five miles an hour. The turns are any thing but safe; kiddies having no place else to play are forced to play on the streets. Children, especially the younger, are not responsible for their own vel fare; so the responsibility of any such accident becomes the responsibility of the driver.
 1t is far better to be safe than sorry. It is far better to take a little ordinary care under any circumstance than to cripple for life or to snuff out irreplaceable life.
The Alaskan., 1930-05-23
NOT so GOOD

T tell you, we havn't made a cent fishing so far. If this keeps up all summer, I don't know what we will do."
 So Spake a halibut fisherman the other day in Petersburg.
 The House of Representatives has refused to place a duty of five cents per pound on haiibut imported from foreign countries. The International Halibut Com mission is muttering prophecies that impend radical changes in favor of conservation. The pa- triotic buyer in Washington se- cures halibut from Japan during the closed season in American waters and further gluts the market and thereby keeping the prices down. The fisherman goes out just on a gamble and hopes against hope that he will make better than a living wage.
 Where is it all leading and what will be done about it?

YOUTH DRINKING, DECLINES

A recent survey of 100000 high school students in the United States indicate that the use of liquor is steadily decreas- ing. This news-properly sub by the wet press-was announced by c. w. Crabtree, secretary of the National Educa- tional Association on behalf of the Wickersham Commission, which is making the study. On the basis of reports received, de- clared MT. Crabtree: There is less drinking, delinquency, and carousing among high school than in 1920. Based on the returns, I think can safe ly say that drinking is getting less each year among high school 
 One truly find what he seeks and most any statement can be backed with figures and statist- Ics..

 Try getting on the other enu once and taste of the joy of dO- ing something worth while for the other fellow who needs your help. In other words forget the the relationship of the almighty dollar to your own pocket bOoK for a short while and concern yourself with an unselfish effort to build up for the benefit of all HI Alaska rather than for few.

BELIEVES THEM GUILTY

A Quaker delegation recently
 went to Governor Young of Cal |ifornia, to plead for pardon for
 Tom Mooney and Warren Bill ings. According to Arthur Heeb
 one of the members of the dele
 gation, the Governor still be- lieves the two men guilty and he does not propose being swayed by public opinion to think oth- erwise. The Governor explained having read all the documents in the case and that although some of the evidence seemed 10 have been perjured plenty of Unquestioned evidence seemedto lead him to believe them guilty. Furthermore he did not believe Mooney was "repentant."
 According to the latter opini- on, it is Governor Young's be- lief that the best way to make a man repentant, after keeping him in jail for thirteen years, is to keep him there longer.
 It is the believe of many citi- zens of the country, including officials, that Mooney and Bill ings are the victims of a dastard- ly frame-up. They still have hope from the Pardon Board and action from the State Supreme Court which will render it's deci- sion on Billings application for pardon.
 This parody on justice has cone far enough. It is time the men were adjudged rightly and some respect brought back to the American system of dispensing justice.

PROHIBITION AND CRIME

Much is being said about the present disregard for law in all quarters of the United States. The disregard for law being at tributed to the Prohibition Laws which are being nullifled by the people of high and low estate.
 An old teaching of economics is that poverty mothers crime. That where poverty is greatest there will be found the dregs of society. Forced by the bangs of hunger, want, lust and to allay the pains of poverty, crimes are committed.
 We have had an era of pros perity for several years. Paper prosperity where the rich become richer and the poor become poor CT. The sudden deflation of the stock markets played havoc with the paper profits and those who do have the real profits have so tied up their capital that unem- ployment is a direct cause. Pres ldent Hoover saw this condition so last winter he called capital lsts together to urge them to op- crate Fin the red" and give more

THE VIEW OF A DRY

In a recent Prohibition poll made by the PATHFINDER among it's own subscribers, 444, = 627 ballots were cast. Of this number a total of 71,802 were cast for wet propositions; 57,952 for Prohibition as it is; and for atricter enforcement of the 18th 214,873.
 Two hundred and seventy two thousand, eight hundred twenty five votes cast for Prohibition, a majority of 101 ,023 dry.
 It has been charged that the Fathflnder's circulation is gen. orally in rural districts and cities. If this is the case, the poll becomes a significant ( comparison with that of the Li- terary Digest. Perhaps the Path finder circulation more nearly Prohibition sentiment among women voters. But, what ever the reason, and granting honesty of motive and proceed ure to both the Literary Digest and the Pathfinder, there is a difference.

THE PURPOSE OF HIGHER
 EDUCATION

Tt is the purpose of higher education to unsettle the minds of young men, to widen their horizon, to influence their intel lects. And by this series of mix ed metaphors I mean to assert that education is not to teach men facts, theories or laws. ...
 It is not to reform them or to amuse them, or to make them technicians in any field. It is to teach them to think, to think straight if possible, but to think

BILLION-DOLLAR BILL sIGNE

A few years ago when Con- gress reached the point where it's total annual appropriations reached a billion dollars, it was the subject of national com ment. The other day, President Hoover signed a single bill car rying an item of $1,149,O ,O88, ,O08 for the Treasury and Post Of1c- Departments for the fiscal year of 1881.

The Alaskan offers a prize of ten dollars for the best letter showing cause and effect of the prohibition of use of anchors on gill nets and the reason for no similar prohibition against float ing traps.

.."WiH pay your accounts up to 5000 including cash you need if you will sign contract to fish for me for three years"

EXTRAS OR SPARES

A chicken at the Davis hatch cry, Freeport, Me, struts about on two legs as does any other chicken. The odd part of this chicken-and not all chickens are odd-lies in the fact that it carries others for spares, hav- ing four legs.
