GLAVIS.
Win'll mu' slops lo compare
The l ii in ii 11 raised by Hie sell
styled prol eel ors ol I he public
when (Mavis was in his accusa
tive prime, with the deep silence
that now prevails since (.Mavis
has come into his dismissal at
the hands of his own party, it is
easy to see .iusl how much of sin
cerity and inlelligenre there was
in the hysteria that swept over
the land some two years ago. Out
of a vast, mass of conjecture, in
nuendo, downright falsehood and
malice a respectable body of pub
lic opinion was formed, a false
opinion that has done damage to
the West, to Washington and
Alaska in particular.
One by one the (illegalions and
accusations have been shown up
in their falsity. The “Dick-lo
Dick forgery was exploded in all
its puerile clumsiness; the "Con
troller bay out rag'” has been
demonstrated to have been a joke
with pathetic point, and now (Ma- i
vis, “the hero” of it all, “the
clean-cut, courageous defender of
the people’s rights,” stands be
fore all the land dismissed for
feathering his privaten est by
means of information gathered
■while serving ms dear people. ;
I.et Gov. Johnson in his an
guish he as euphemistic as he j
will, Glavis was ousted for the I
very thing he falsely accused j
honorable men of doing, and all j
the organs of righteousness
which proclaimed Glavis' accusa
tions are now loo busy lit note j
the present situation or make
comment on it. What a wail went
up when (tlavis was dismissed
from the federal service. What
a shrill shout of encouragement
for “Ibe martyr.” And what a
silence lhere* is today about that
self-same “martyr” with thwarted
scheme of pocketing 850,000 of
corporation commissions.
But what is I lie use of talking
about il ? The damage has been
done and cannot b undone. Pin
eholisin is not fair enough to ad
mit its errors. If lives only by
accusation and slander. They who
heard the charges of Pinchotism
in good faith never hear the refu
tations of the charges; they will
never bear about the disgrace of
Glavis, for these are precautions
well taken by the Pinohot system.
Truth has never yet caught up
with a lie, and if is loo much to
hope that it will in this instance
for our especial benefit.
GOOD RESULT OF BAD ROADS.
So much has been written and
said against had roads that it is
a real relief to cite proof that
some good results can follow our
indulgence in I he luxury of bad
roads.
European manufacturers are
very much excited over I he growth
of America’s exports of automo
biles. In 1902 our exports of au
tomobiles and automobile acces
sories amounted to but $1,000,
000. Eop I he year just closed
American exports of automobile?,
$22,000,000, with $10,000,000 ad
ditional in I he way of tires and
accessories.
Now comes the funny part of
the story. English manufacturers
explain that the American roads
are so bad lhal a car that can suc
cessfully travel over them has to
be a good car. and that the Amer
ican cars are therefore much bet
ter made (ban the English cars.
The English manufacturers also
promise that they are going to
meet the “foreign invasion” by
making cars just, as good as the
American cars, which, of course,
is the only way._
EDITORIAL MOTES.
Evidently the attorney general
is finding that the hard coal trust
is not soluble.
The Turkish war budget for
1913 should be known as run
ning expenses.
The error made by Captain
Scott, in cutting his supplies loo
short in making his final dash
is one made by many in (he cold
regions before they have gained
experience.
We can see n<> reason for I he
arrest of I lie live Wes I Virginia
legislators who had sold their
voles for live thousand dollars
a piece. The price was fairly up
|,o union rales and tin* money
was good oilier Ilian having I..
marked.
The parcel post packages mail
ed in Yonkers were a hrindle hull
dog and a piece of meat, both ol
which were finally delivered in one
bundle.
Republican leader, Mann, says
Congress is in the hands of a
mob. Probably any majorily
against him would resemble a
mob to Mann.
Mr. Munsry proposes a hold
ing-parly for the Republican and
Progressive parlies. Events Iasi
November might have suggested a
receivership.
The suffragists, in llicir ad
vance upon Washington. will have
Ihe company of several hundred
Ihousand Democrats who would
gladly exchange I heir vole for an
office,

When Pinrhot and Dial hunch
poke their noses in Ihe affairs of
New England we can expect Ihe
thrifty Yankees to come over to
the side of Alaska and Ihe west
ern stales.
Chicago is boosting Willis I,.
Moore, Ihe weather man. for a
place in Ihe cabinet. Moore is Ihe
greatest living authority on wind,
and naturally Chicago thinks he
is a great statesman.
The placing of fourth-class
postmasters under Ihe civil ser
vice by* Piesident Taft evidently
had nothing to do with the post
master of Beebe Arsenal, who was
discharged because lie did not pay
his campaign assessment.

It i - a fact that Valdez beer ig a food and not a tonic.
Ask any doctor you know. Valdez beer aids digestion. Use
it a few times with your meals and you’ll find we're right.
If you drink beer you should use Valdez beer in prefer mce to
others. First, because of its unquestionable high quality.
Second, because it is a home product; brewed in your home
town and all who are interested in the growth and prosper
ity of Valdez should patroniz home products.
