TERRITORIAL POLITICAL HORIZON
If ‘‘coming events cast their shadows before” the ter
litorial political horizon’s rival eclipse of the moon tells
ns that this will be a Democratic year.
If the same shadows are similarly interpreted they
presage a Democratic victory in the presidential campaign.
Figure the dope: Each day has seen marked deflect
ions ot various bloc forces from the Republicans in the
States. I here is the deflection of the Veterans followed
closely by the National Economy League, then comes a
report that 2,000,000 “Khaki Shirts” are pledged to de
feat Mr. Hoover. Hiram Johnson, whom no one with pol
itical acumen will discount, says “thumbs down” for Mr.
Hoover and at a time when Senator Borah has been sulk
ing in his tent.
Having stabilized big business and found the nation
al treasury facing a heavy deficit, it is announced a fur
ther draft will be drawn against the full dinner pail, or
the little fellow, to meet the shortage.
But it is remarkably significant that Alaska is fol
lowing close in the steps of the national government. In
fact so similar are the courses of parent and step-child
that one would be led to believe that the national pro
gram has been spread out to reach even this remote sec
tion of the nation.
Dowm in Juneau the royal family has developed a
situation sometning like the contest between Catherine
Medic i and the Count De Guise, with some clinging to
the royal insignia and others assaying the role of the
Huguenots.
One by one the organized G. O. P. forces have disin
tegrated, and the stalwarts are milling about with a hand
ful of oakum and a caulking iron in an effort to plug,the
leaks in the ship of state.
It resembles a lame duck session of Congress with
each fowl bent upon creating as much embarassment for
his successor as possible.
i The case of Cash Cole brings out a cardinal issue,
with Cole having a decided edge. His opponents will
emerge from next Tuesday’s election looking like last
year s overcoat after its wearer had engaged in an argu
ment with a browTi bear. The deflection of Cole has been
the most serious problem the organization has had to
deal with. He is a figiite rand unafraid, and has almost the
unanimous support of every Alaskan; they know Cole
is on the job for Alaskans and not for the royal family of
federals.
But the Bourbons still find that “there is work in the
vineyard to do.” Overconfidence is bad. We do not see any,
save candidates, spreading the gospel and working to as
sure victory for their party. Senator Dimond, the Demo
candidate for Delegate to Congress, has just completed
carrying his message to Southeastern Alaska. There is
no question about his election to Alaska’s highest office,
if press reports from the First Division are correct.
Roosevelt’s “new deal” holds good for Alaska as well
as in continental United States. He said so yesterday in
a press dispatch. That’s all Alaska asks.
SFAKCHIING FOR GOLD
The Seattle Times, commenting upon the golden era
just now besetting the world, says:
“Every country which at any time in its affairs has!
mined gold is now witnessing a revival of interest in this j
worn of activity. The trek of prospectors to the
Gills and streams of Washington, Oregon and California
and numerous other American States, the stampeding of
miners to new Alaska discoveries and the intensive search
being undertaken turnout Northern Canada is being dup
plicated in the old world.
“Previously, it is reported, low values and high pro
duction costs had operated against the successful con
duct of these ventures. Now with the purchasing power
of the metal enhanced and all expenses reduced, it has
been found practical to tap these anciently known ledges.
“The drive for gold is a wholesome thing. It is reason
ably certain the earth has yielded up only a small portion
of its riches. With world commerce still at its high level
and certain to reach a higher peak during the next per
iod of prosperity, need exists for continued supplies of
the yellow metal as the backing of monetary systems.
“Nor should the net result in the form of added gold
production be discounted too sharply. With so many
seekers working the mines and panning the rivers of
every nation possessing wealth of this character, the
gross output in this and succeeding years is certain to
reach surprising and, possibly, startling proportions.”
