SEWARD. ALASKA, THURSDAY. JUNE 17. 1913.
A PARABLE.
An editor died and found himself in the next world. Being out of a job
and having learned that newspaper men could reside with the Heaven bunch
because of the suffering endured by scribes on earth he started a paper which,
to satisfy the greater number of the population, he called The Red Hot Poker.
Benefiting by past experience in the mundane sphere he made it his policy
not to take part in disputes. He would treat all people alike. This worked
well for a time. All sides declared their delight at having at last a really
good newspaper that went to the limit of expense to give the people the best.
But he found that in leaving the world people had brought with them, con
trary to what he had been led to believe, some of their human characteristics.
In the first place, the community was divided into two cliques. The minor
ity were in heaven, a fact which bore out what he had been taught, and the
“Big Four” were in hell. Again contrary to his teaching he found angels
and devils mingling without, however, mixing. His first trouble came when
a concert was given and he overlooked mentioning the name of Mrs. Beelze
bub’s Annie. Mrs. B telephoned an order to stop her subscription. Next day
he complimented Davey Jones on a fine new stock of pitchforks that arrived
on the Santa Ana and a former bishop, who always had his photograph taken
on earth with a shepherd’s staff and lived up to his reputation by shipping in
such goods, took his advertisement out of the Poker. At last the editor began
to find that to speak well about one man hurt another almost as much as if
you had delivered a direct attack on himself. He began seriously considering
the advisability of calling in Holy Job to give him an editorial appointment
but he learned that Job would decline his namesake with the excuse that he
was afraid of losing his rep. He said he got his name in the first place from
the job that was put up on him in the fertilizer fake.
' Fortunately the editor didn’t have much soul left after his mundane
trials. He was calloused and, indeed, he could look behind the cover of the
others and see some good in those who were in heaven and even some good
in those who were—not.
He kept up his spirits ami when the city election came around he tried
to be fair but, alas, one side had insisted on declaring him under the influence
of the other side ami they refused to give him the printing of ordinances pro
viding for the new pavements on Paradise Alley. One side also worked to
get gold pavements on Satanic avenue and hired a political friend for night
watchman although there was no money to pay him. The same good folks
who wanted the gold pavements for themselves refused to give clinkers to
the others. Even the big four fired the reliable Peter because he had been
suspected of voting wrong. But these were small troubles to the editor of
the Poker compared to those arising from the desire of the weak minded
who always wanted to get their own faddish ideas published to the exclusion
of real news. Those people finally came to the conclusion that the Poker
didn’t know its business and they decided to start in opposition. The editor
of tty Poker chuckled. He had expected oppposition of some kind but he
had’nt dared to hope for one that would play so beautifully into his hands.
A few brilliant lights who failed to pass muster either with St. Peter or the
Poker came out of sultry seclusion and, making “angels" of their friends,
started the Daily Brimstone. Six months later the editor of the Brimstone
entered the office of the editor of the Poker.
“Good morning, Mr. Editor" he said.
“Morning. What dye want ? Pm busy.”
“Say, we’ll sell that plant of ours for two bits on the dollar."
“You aint satisfied?”
“Nope; when we took on that job we thought we could make it stick and
live in heaven."
“Well that’s all right” answered the Brains of the Poker. “You can go
to hell w ith your paper."
