The Gateway has received two little notices recently in Alaska paper®
that are worthy of notice. The Iditarod Pioneer refers to the statement in
the Gateway some time ago that some one should say a few prayers for our
esteemed contemporary and the Pioneer goes on to beg the Gateway to start
in with its benedictions as soon as it likes. A good-humored paper like the
Pioneer really wants no prayers, after all. but a few little prayerful appeals
for the Cordova Times might not be in vain in smoothing its way to right
eousness.
Some time ago the Gateway said it hail heard that Senator Knute Nel-j
son of Minnesota, who opposed the railroad emergency appropriation, is the
owner of some property at Cordova and the Times in its issue of January 26
pours the vius of its wrath on the devoted head of this publication for dar
ing to even suggest any such thing. The Times even declares that in making
vuch a statement the Gateway resorted to “despicable tactics" ’to attack
people and communities and the Gateway cannot refrain from the expression |
of desire to know if the Times believes Cordova to have been insulted or j
Senator Nelson by the statement that he owned property there. It is hard
to understand ho\\ a community could consider itself otTended by having it ^
.-aid a United States senator had faith enough in it to buy its property, and j
it is also ditlicult to understand how Senator Nelson could have considered |
himself insulted by the accusation that he h 1 bought property in Cordova, j
The Times itself would not surely consider a man a criminal or an idiot for
paying good money for its real estate, and it just as surely would not con
sider its own city a blot on the face of civilization because it took that filthy
lucre for some of its lots.
A little vacation from his newspaper and other duties might enable the
editor of the Cordova Times to read a cablegram correctly and to get back
his humor. He i.-. hevmiiur positively funny in his puerile passion.
So the senate committee passed that emergency appropriation without
the least hullabaloo. Thi> is not fair to some of the publications in Alaska.
One member least of that committee ought to have started a tight. Some
little excuse should have been provided our intellectual journalists to dish up
some more of that Guggenheim stutT. The fact of the matter is that if those
members of e mgress don’t wake up and tight we’ll forget those Guggs al
together. Wonder if they accuse the Guggs back east of buying that place
on the supreme court bench for Brandcia.
