SEWARD, ALASKA, TUESDAY, JANUARY 16, 1917
Just at present, it should be remembered, the accusa
tion against Secretary AlcAdoo and others has no better
foundation than hearsay. Lawson has been able to say
no more than that someone told him what someone else
had said. The fact that Lawson told Chairman Henry to
his face that he spoke of the leak means really nothing
material as there was evidently rumor about leaks and
Henrv or anvone else could be excused for speaking in
such a manner. AYe shall probably know today what
opinion to form, but certainly the cables yesterday con
veyed no proof of wrong doing. All of us remember well
Lawson s articles in the magazine—Everybody's, if mem
ory is correct—in which he spent months ranting about
the exposures he was about to make and finished up like
an exploded gas bag.
Lawson, although a successful stock gambler who
has made millions, seems to be torn by the ambition to
got into the limelight. It should also not bo forgotten
that Wall Street did everything in its power to defeat
Wilson and his party and may be looking forward to the
k
next election, and may be already forging the weapons
with which to accomplish the end of the Democratic
party. All that Lawson has told us yet, unless today's
cables bring further information, is that his banker told
him that McAdoo was responsible for the leak. This
banker and McAdoo are still to be heard from.
A cable coining last night too late for publication says
that Henrv declared Ambassador Bernstorif had made
w
two millions by the leak. If this is proven, and there is no
reason why it could not, it will mean, of course, that Bern
mo rtf's recall will be demanded. It will also mean that
MeAdoo will be disgraced and the cabinet of President
Wilson and his administrative machine generally degrad
ed in the eyes of the whole people. This will not affect the
honor of the President himself but it will create a world
scandal such as has been only associated hitherto with
countries like Mexico.
It is safe to say. though, that Lawson with his usually
irresponsible haste has made charges which lie can never
drive home. One can go further and say it is also safe to
assume that if MeAdoo has been indiscreet nothing worse
can be charged against him. He certainly never deliber
ately gave away such a secret when its divulgence, he
must know, involved the father of his wife, fatally threat
ened the administration of which he himself is a part,
ruined his own honor and betrayed his own party into the
hands of the enemy. Lawson and his friends have lied or
blundered. It would be too terrible to harbor any other
belief.
