WHEN LEADERSHIP FAILS.

Since the beginning of time men have banded themselves together in groups and organizations for purpose of strength for it is simple logic that united effort is able of greater accomplishment than single individuals working at different angles but all toward common goal It is well known fact that well-trained and organized body of men will get twice as far the same number of men, dsorganzed and each attempting his own leader-s ship though all may be hopeful of getting to the point. On this premise has been built the principle of unionism, and sound principle it has been proven.
 But to maintain a closely knit organization not only must the purpose of the group be worthy but its leadership must be beyond question and capable of co-ordnating for the common good of the group and not for personal aggrandzement. It is on this premise that modern unionism has failed so many times in the past The leadership has too often become biased and elfconscous of power and overlooked the common laws of organized society. When this condition sets in the organization dis integrates and trouble many times follows before Reorganization is established and going thing.
 The test of leadership is its ability to lead and when it fails to live up to that test there is 70 purpose in battling blindly with nothing in view. The thing to do when leadership fails is supplant it. the American people did two years ago in the political arena. Similar conditions arise from time to time within labor organizations and in- variably there is resistance on the part of the faterng leadership to step aside for, being human, we all think first of selfish ends. But when new leaders arise that better able to cope with the problem in hand it is only good sportsmanship to let them lead and it is the very foundation which organized society is based. When those leaders able to get the following Of the majority by all laws of good government they entitled to function, for only chaos can come from failure of tIe majority to rule.
 N Such a situation is now confronting us in Juneau and out of the battle for leadership has come violation of the rights of others that the forces of law, which the majority of all the people. have been called upon to fulfill the duty of keeping the peace.
 The evidence is that the majority of the work CTS at the Alaska ju.eau gold mine are desirous of returning to work and have began plans for doing It is their inherent right and they are entitled to the protection the law allows. It is not their fault that the leadership of the central organization has fallen on evil days and the mem- bers of the organization. have drifted from it. That is the shorteomings of te leadership itself and it is upon that leadership thai rest the responsibility for such troubles alise until 1t steps aside to the will of the majority as is our common law for good government and god sportsmanship.

CLEARED OF INNUENDO.

Character and reputation are the most sacred things that and women have, and most of us guard them zeaously By our works and deeds judged and if there is indication that some of our works are not above board suffer in account
 In Juneau, Mayor Goldstein naturally and right fully felt that he had been falsely presented before the world in article appearing in local labor paper and brought action against the editor on grounds of criminal libel. Twelve Juneau citizens have upheld the Mayors contention that his repu- tation was his most sacred possession and the writer of the article face the consequences of conviction
 It. difficult thing to be forced to call upon ones neghbors and friends to take action against another because the latter has blackened his repu- tation It takes man of courage and unsulied character to follow through. There has been no question in the minds of the big majority of the citizens of Juneau to the reputation of Mayor Go.d-tein. That name has been prominent in the city for years without blemish even hint of one It continues to stand cleared of innuendo and sus- picion as result Of the jury action yesterday.

On the return flight there was forced landing that resulted in broken propeller Such the difficulties in holding the course that Hamilton had to keep his eye on a train composed of with roofs painted white.
