Before the last Presidential election
democrats were a pretty scarce article
in Alaska. There were a few of course,
as the democrat is a hardy plant, and
will grow almost anywhere but at
that, the population of Aslaska was
made lip largely of republicans, social
ists, bull-moosers and Swedes, with the
people who did not like raft and could
not pronounce the socialist candklate’s
name boosting for Champ Clark.
Wilson was looked upon as a school
teacher who was doing pretty well at
Princton, but would never do to (ill
the chair once used by Cleveland and
in which Bill Taft once rattled around,
like a lonesome color in a gold pan.
The people, wanted a change, not only
in Alaska, but on the great outside as
well, and while we did not have much
to say about it, we were satisfied to
say “well enough” when they got it.
We did not particularly want Wilson,
but when we had a chance to see him
tried out, we were mighty glad that
we had him. lie has made good, and
made good a great deal stronger than
we had any right to think he would.
That is because we did not know any
thing much about Wilson.
The railroad question was "in much
the same condition. We, in Alaska,
wanted a change. We were not sure
what kind of a change we wanted, out
we wanted a change that would give
us a railorad, and as we knew some
thing about a private owned and built
railroad, we figured that kind was the
kind we wanted. We knocked a Gov
ernment-owned road largely because
it was something new. It was a lot
like Wilson. We did’nt know what it
would be like, and now we are going
to have a chance to see, and the;
chances are that a government-owned
and onerated railroad will be as pleas- j
*
ant and aggreeable a surprise in the
railroad line as Woodrow Wilson has
proven himself tu be in the president-1
ial line.
The wildest dreams of Alaskans will;
be more than realized if the govern-,
ment railroad works out as well in j
practice as the democratic administra- j
tion, and if it does, the prosperity of \
Alaska is ns detinately settled as its.
political future,judging from the num
ber of democrats you meet on the trail j
of the great northern country sincei
Wilson started his campaign of doing j
things and not talking and theroizing
all the time. Now that we are to have
a government-owned and operated
railroad in Alaska, Alaskans are ail
strong for government ownership.
