SEWARD, ALASKA, WEDNESDAY, JUNE. 16, 1915.
President Wilson always seems to do the right thing. A cartoon appear
ed recently in some newspaper and was reproduced in the Review of Reviews,
which told a fine tale. It represented an old farmer and his motherly old wife.
The fanner had a newspaper in his hand and the headline in that paper spoke j
of a certain act of Wilson. As the old man was about to wind up the clock
for the night he spoke over his shoulder to the old lady.
“Mother,” he said, “Ef l had to do that I would say jest what the presi
dent said.’* ,
In refusing to answer the charge of William Jennings Bryan, Mr Wilson
has just done what any man of common sense would have done. We may be
sure he has not been si’ent because he has need of silence. He is silent be
cause he has the tact of a gentleman.
There is hardly a man in the United States, with the exception of real ,
personal enemies, who would wish to see the career of William Jennings
Bryan end in fog and cloud. As it was with Roosevelt, there was a time when
the name of Bryan carried that peculiar tone, so to speak, which gives to the
most ordinary patrynomie a sort of poetry. He rose like a star and seemed
to have all the brilliancy of one. He had not yet made enemies because a
man who is not known never has enemies.
Then came political fights in which he was bound to make many power
ful interests hostile. He fought determinedly and would have been presi
dent of the United States were it not for an accident. He is probably a really
great man, although greatness is merely judged by material success. But
he had the character and talent that enabled him to win the support of mil
lion* and millions would regret today to have it proven that he made his
charge against the administration for any other reason that that he labored
under a misapprehension.

SHOOTER WOUNDED.
JUNEAU.—'W. H. Engel, a young
man employed by the Alaska-Gasti
neau Mining Comany at the 1 hane
Portal camp, sustained a deep scalp
wound last evening, when a 22-calibre
bullet recoiled from a steel target and
ploughed a crease in his head two
inches long. He was treated at St.
Ann hospital, and was able to return
to Thane last evening.
Engel placed a steel disc, about 30
feet away, and shot at it to test the

penetrating power of a new high-pow
er gun. The bullet cut through his
hat when it rebounded.
