A MIXED TICKET
The Presidential campaign of 1928 presents one:
unique feature at least. It is that a white man running
for president and a negro candidate for vice-president on
Political Party.
Possibly a good many of our readers have never
heard of this party, but its leaders claim that 15,000,000
negroes are favorable to it a ridiculous claim, of course.
But many have heard of its presidential candidate,
who is none other than “Genedal” Jacob S. Coxey, leader
“Coxey s Army” of 1894, composed of jobless men who
marched to Washington eo obtain relief, but accomplish
ed little except to call attention to the widespread unem
ployment then existing. Some of them were even arrest
ed for trespassing on the Capitol grounds.
Coxey, who is now 74, operates a silica sand company
in Ohio and also has oil interests in Oklahoma. The negro
vice-presidential candidate is Simon P. W. Drew, a real
estate operator and a preacher.
Thus again is illustrated the saying that “polities
makes strange bed-fellows.”
Today is Friday the 13th but that doesn’t mean a
thing to us Alaskans.
PURSUE IT IS RIGHT
Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Yey! that’s
right, chase it, try and get it with our multitude of laws;
laws, apparently to assist the crooked element and not
for Mr. and Mrs. Respectable Citizen. With the army of
government checkers continually riding your tail the
great outdoor sport now is beating the government and
John Law. And our present prohibition enforcement law,
* to a great extent, has brought this condition about.
A mine contains a crop already raised, harvested
and on deposit for one to check against at their pleasure.
Imagine holding a dry party convention in Chicago
uch as was held yesterday. Read in today’s news col
umns extracts from their plank then let your conscience
he your guide.
The Alaskan’s we have have talked to are unanimous
in believing A1 Smith will be our next President provided
he is inclined toward a shot. Just to think about a scuddle
of suds makes the writer spit cotton.
Did you ever take a rail (?) trip across the gullop of
Alaska ?
Though we have alwrays had a high regard for Herb
Hoover yet he is beginning to surround himself with a
gang we have little time for.
In England, married men live four years longer than
batehelors. Which is one reason there are so many
bachelors.
The wealth gathered from the mines immortalized
King Solomon.
