Vox Populi Objects.
Mk. Editor—Tlie last issue of
tlie News lias an editorial para
graph, which, as is often found iti
its columns, is predicated upon in
tent ionaljiiisrepresantation of facts,
and in which 1 am referred to. The
writer filches an idea from the Re
cord-Miner and strives to weave it
into wit, but dismal failure is the
result.
Ever since the mass meeting in
Scptomlicr much wonderment has
has been expressed why — with
what object—did the News publish
the long editorial upon the action
of the mass meeting? Certainly
no good could l>e subserved. It
was an article that showed the
writer was sore with a grievance,
was greatly disgruntled, and ih
such a scolding, nagging humor
that he must vent his spleen upon
the citizens of Valdez and publish
it to all the world. Of course mis
representation prevailed. It was
an ill-mannered, impolitic, injudi
cious article, and could only result
in harm and discord.
the issue of the Anvs of (let. 1/
explains the object of this harangu
ing editorial. As was evidently
anticipated by the News, some of
the papers of southeastern Alaska
replied to his great scold, Iterating
Valdez severely, and in one in
stance in a scurrilous manner. The
News most gleefully publishes these
as ‘‘comments,” with an **I told
you so” air. This is not true jour
nalism; it is petty anti reprehensi
ble individualism—selfishness. It
is true the editor is youthful, but
he should learn that the mission of
a public journal is to lead and mold
public opinion for good, to restrain
passions, to effect conciliation, and
to not sew the seeds of discord.
In the same selfish spirit, under
the guise of advocating territorial
government, the Valdez News pub
lishes an extract from the Douglas
News as follows:
“ Home rule for Alaska should
be the war cry for every man who
is tired of carpet hag government,
of misrule, oi jobbery, oi receivers,
of franchises, of claim jumpers, of
insolent officers, of high licenses, of
neglect, of scorn, of abuse, and of
every damnable and devilish tit
vice to extort and rob the people of
Alaska, at the same time denying
them l he Mod-given rights of Amer
ican citizenship.”
Now, in all kindness and from a
full measure of self respect we must
resent this unjust tirade. Possibly,
in the opinion of some, a portion of
the foregoing conditions may he
found in the first judicial district,
but nothing of the kind.or even re
sembling such, exists in Central
Alaska. Politically we are a most
happy and harmonious people.
Among us there is no strife or con
tention. We honor, respect and
cheerfully sustain the otficials who
govern, guide and care for us. for
we know, that under the lead of
Judge Wickersham, for efficiency,
broad views, and all the instincts
of true gentlemen, we have the best
officials any community was ever
blessed with. And we are proud
of tltcm.
Our laws, as administered and
abided by, so far as they reach are
good, and under them we progress
and prosper. Modifications and
extensions are always in order, but
no 'Mainnahle ami devilish devices”
are existent here.
We want the Dcuoias News and
all kiudml thinkers to understand
that we icM'iu being placed in such
light—yes. even by reflection.
lilt people 01 tide section are
almost unnnirnotis u|*>n th»‘ terri
torial government question, and
ln-lieve that such Inmi is neither
possible or Ix'iietieial at the present
time, and all such agitation silly
and useless.
We are sorry that th«*se papers
in the soullteast have been misin
formed and misled; we regret their
present animosity, hut believe that
they will soon learn that the sensi
ble people of this section are their
steadfast triends and that our in
terests are generally-mutual.
