THE NEW COUNCIL.
The new town council is composed
of representative men who will no
doubt do the best they can with mu
nicipal business, as all previous coun
cils have done.
Valdez ought to have a rest from
politics now until two weeks before
the election next year.
FRAME.
The Prospector has no apology to
offer for having brought into its col
umns for two days as unclean a. sub
ject as John W. Frame. After today
this paper will probably not mention
Frame again for at least two years.
It kept silent for more than two years
while he vilified every business and
professional man in Valdez who re
fused to truckle to him.
The Prospector devoted two days
to Frame’s record as a moral bank
rupt at the request of many promi
nent men because of the impression
that had begun to spread that the
men attacked were afraid of Frame.
It ought to be clear now that no
body is afraid of Frame, and nobody
need be.
It is impossible to libel Frame be
cause the truth about him is as bad
as any fiction that inventive genius
could devise. If the Prospector has
printed anything untrue about Frame
it is here again suggested that the
courts are open to afford him re
dress. The Prospector is financially
responsible.
It would be idle for anybody to sue
Frame for libel because he is hope
lessly insolvent financially, as he is
in character and personal repute. It
is idle to reply to his innuendoes of
wrongdoing, or even the wilful lies
he prints when he feels sure he will
not be called to account, because they
are too silly for any intelligent per
son to believe.
The Prospector is now out of the
garbage business.
