It looks as if Seattle had the|
usual amount of say in the Juneaif
contention.
Perkins and Ryan are dead, pol
itically we mean, and they have
Kad that fact impressed upon them
any number of times, and in many
and various ways. We wonder
when they are going to realize the
filet.
The Gateway man has at last
cbme out of his dope dream and re
alizes that the steamers from Se
attle are not going direct to Sew
ard. and is urging the Alaska Cen
tral to put on an opposition line.
Thero is- not now, nor ever has
been any reason why steamers
should go direct to Seward, and
T:fnele Sam evidently believes that
tire prompt arrival of mails at in
ti-rior points of more-importance
to Alaska than bolstering up the
self esteem of Sewardites. so we
presume that the steamers will
continue to make Valdez their first
port of call.
The Gateway, in an editorial on
the Wickersham matter states:
‘The outcome of the fight on Wick
ershara, therefore, lias not been to
impeach his ability, honesty or
Stress, - blit rather to emphasize
t!le*n, and to‘establish proof that
3if5iator Nelson is no less dishonest
than ignorant and malicious.”
Such a statement characterizes tl.e
writer as being as dishonest and
malicious as he would make Sena
tor Nelson appear. It is the height
nf absurdity to attempt to belittle
the opposition to Judge Wicker
sham or to attribute to Senator
Nelson no other grounds than a
petty personal spite for Ids fight
against Wickersham’sconfirmation.
To Senator Nelson, more than
any other person in Washington,
is* Alaska indebted for the legisla
tion which- has been enacted for
its benefit, and an attempt to be
smirch his character only brands
the writer an ingrate, or worse.
