NOME, ALASKA, JULY 21, 1917.
LET CHARTY RULE.
It is very easy to criticize and eas
ier still to condemn. And it is es
pecially easy to criticize and condemn
those whoso opinions differ from our
own. Most of us, right down at the
bottom, are ready to criticize and
condemn anything and everything that
does exactly not meet our approval.
Judging by the tenor of the remarks
one hears in daily life three fourths
of all the people one encounters lie
long in the "carping critic” class. At
least they display an astonishing ap
titude at loosening the verbal shafts
of criticize or condemnation when
ever an opportunity presents 'itself,
ltiit, while being overly willing to
condemn the other fellow whose ideas
do not agree with our own, most of
us find it a matter of considerable
difficulty to place ourselves in the
other fellow's place or to grant him
the credit of high motives and hon
est intentions.
Let us think of this when we hear
expressions in regard to the war to
which we cannot agree.
Even though they at times appear
to be of a harsh and unpatriotic na
ture let charity rule and he not too
quick to condemn.
Freedom of speech has been a rul
ing principle of this nation since its
inception America has long hern the
refuge of the oppressed and has
gloried in the freedom of speech I
granted and guaranteed to all who
sought asylum here.
Shall we now abandon this glorious
privilege merely because we are in
the war; shall we now deny this boon
thah has been our greatest glory to
those to whom we have opened the
doors to our country?
We are aware that the chief ad
monition to the alien born resident
at this time Is contained in the mo
mentous statement: "Obey the law
and keep your mouth shut,” but
heaven forbid that It should apply
where disloyalty or treason does not
appear in an expression of sentiment.
Among the hundreds of thousand of
residents of Teutonic extraction or
Idrth, there are many who have rel
atives fighting in the armies of Eu
rope .Should we condemn these if,
while their hearts are wrung with
sorrow over the danger of their loved
ones or with tender recollections of
the land of their birth and the suf
fering and sadness 'it now endures,
they speak harshly of Its enemies?
Let us try to place ourselves in the
same unfortunate position ns many of
these citizens and try to realize what
they must feel before we offer gur
conlemnation because of some harsh J
sounding statement. Let us make al
lowance for the omotlonnlism which
is so much more pronounced in the
peoples of Kurope than in our own
race, and let us try to bear with
them lint'll they shall have found
themselves.
Anguish of heart will often cause
harsh words to rise to lips that would
refrain from uttering aught of bitter
ness or evil under less trying im
pulses.
Take the case of that noble gentle
woman, Mr. Sehuman-Helnk, for ex
ample She has four sons in the army
and a fifth in a military school pre
paring to follow them Into the ranks.
The eldest of these sons is in the
German army, the others are Ameri
cans by birth and sentiment. Their
mother is an American by adoption,
though of Gorman birth. Imagine if
you can the suffering that fills her
mother heart at the thought that her
sons are to be pitted against each
other in a struggle which threatens
to overwhelm and possibly obliterate
her birthland.
Could she be justly condemned for
letting the bitterness of her heart well
to her anguished bps In moments of
torturing thought?
Could one blame her for cursing
war and the anguish it brings to
.mother hearts?
Yet this same mother only a few
hours after the war declaration and
when her heart was still filled with
tlie bitter thought of war and what it
meant to her, willingly responded to
on appeal for a song from a largo
crowd gathered to greet her on her
arrival at her San IMego honr>.
And, although her heart was torn
with the anguish that only a mother
who has sons to give to war may
know, her response was “The Star
Stangled Banner," 'in tones that melt
ed the hearts of her listeners.
Let us remember these things when
hot words of condemnation rise in
response to some harsh sounding
phrase from those with alien views.
Let us not be quick to condemn;
let us rather he patient with those
t who may, let ns hope, ultimately !
see the justice of our cause
and grant Its righteousness.
