AW! CUT FT OUT.
The Juneau Dispatch recently took up two columns
editorially taking exceptions to various articles that have,
been printed in the Juneau Empire which commented, in
a news way, of What Charles A. Sulzer has been doing
while delegate to Congress. After wading through the
Dispatch’s editorial there is only one modern word that
expresses its worth and that is camouflage. It isn t e\en
that, coming right down to the tine points. 1 he editorial
attacks on Sulzer are baseless and the attack on the Em
pire is the same. The attacks prove nothing; is only a
jumble of words and quotations, inane. * Sulzer. hampered
as he is. has made good in the short session ot the extra
session where nearly everything before the two branches
of the government has been war items. Give him time,
give him merit for at least trying and not retarding ef
forts to gain relief on certain matters. The general pub-1
lie has no time for attacks now, except war attacks. Pif
fling has passed. Sulzer will work for all of Alaska, all ol
the time, don't forget that. Editorial attacks now on the
Delegate to Congress from Alaska are ill-advised, un
warranted and accomplish only censure from all people,
all parties. ;
The Tacoma Tribune says that a story from the
trenches savs that hundreds of birds fall between the lines
%
victims of gas bombs. Now we know what lias happened
to that Dove of Peace.
Talking about camouflage, a man who has ever done
dutv as an eater in a restaurant anvwhere, knows that is
an ancient art. In fact, its other name is corned beef hash.
Women are again requested to come to the assistance
of the United States government in the present war. This
is food pledge week and the women folks are asked to sign
pledges of food conservation. And they will do that same
thing, willingly and cheerfully, to help the government.
What will some people do when real winter sets in?
Here they are wrapped up with the temperature at freez
ing as if it were 20 below and the wind blowing ice gusts.
German Imperial Chancellor Michaelis has handed in
his portfolio. Did the Socialists get him, as they said they
would? To a man looking on, it appears as if their threat
was made good. Michaelis had a strenuous time during
his hold on office but he was too Imperialistic, too militar
istic, and his head has fallen.

COMMENT ON LAFOLLETTE /
After the expulsion of LaFollette the ( olonel would
insist that the Senate chamber, before a resumption of oil
operations. be thoroughly fumigated. — (Anaconda Stand
ard).
The Kaiser is probably also accursed by the vice of
ingratitude. He hasn’t even bestowed the Order of the
Black Eagle upon LaFollette.—Houston Post.)
In suggesting that we send Lai*ollette to the Reich
stag, T. R. forgets that we have no quarrel with the Ger
man people—(Boston Transcript.)
Mr. LaFollette expresses the wish that he may be
able to give thirty more years to his country. What coun
try?—(New York Herald.)
According to some politicians, Senator LaFollette is
getting ready for the next Presidential campaign when
his helmet will be in the ring.—(Boston 1 ranscript.)
LaFollette is scarcely worth the ammunition fired in
his direction.—(St. Louis Globe-Democrat.)
