SEWARD. ALASKA, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 81,1916.
The forecast of the election result by Colonel Harvey
must be taken with a grain of stilt Pearson’s Magazine
in its last issue says that President \\ ilson refused the
support of Harvey, and if there is anything better calucu
lated than another to jaundice a man's view it is to be told
to keep his friendship. Harvey is probably \er\ mad and
the wish is very much father to the thought .regarding
tutu re election results. It would be impossible lot out
mall head to carry all the political knowledge that Colonel
Harvey laid claim to yesterday. An ordinary human being
would Ynul it hard to'foretell the result in the state he liv
ed m but Harvey deals with the results in most of the
states as though the souls of all the people were laid bare
beiore him. It would be a frightful calamity for Harvey
ii u uson got elected alter having declined the Har\e\ as
sistance.
Probably all of us will be glad when these elections
are passed aiul gone. Elections m the first place bring out
too much blatancy. There seems to l>e too much desire to
talk even when one has little to say. Attacks of a thought
less kind very often defeat their own ends. Even outside
in connection with the national election there is too much
of tiie \ irago or Billingsgate. The whole thing looks
crude and childish. A man of the standing of Senator
Lodge at the last moment comes out with the accusation
that President Wilson was deceiving the-country and a
former assistant secretary of war uses tfig word '•scound
rel." In the first place Lodge should never have spoken
like that unless he was prepared to give positive proof.
At the very best all he could say was that Breckenridge
told Badly so and Badly told him. "1 know a man that
was told i>\ another man that such and such a man said
such and such a thing." Is there one of us that would pay
much attention to a statement like that and is it likely that
an assistant secretary for war would spout to a man on a
train a statement that was fraught with fatal consequen
ces to a whole government ? Lodge has either got to prove
mat statement or to lose his standing and prestige. The
pity is that all who use reckless statements are not made
to lose something. Unfortunately, recklessness is the
weapon of the irresponsible usually.
Seward will !>o in a peculiar position if it holds a
s’raw election and ballots for the presidential candidates.
There will lie people who might forget party allegiance in
a case like that and pay a compliment to the administra
• >n that made Seward the terminal of the government
railroad. On the other hand. Seward might make a mis
take and vote against the man who will be the next presi
dent. It may be better, after all, to cut out that straw
ballotting.
