FUNGUS GROWTHS
To quote the late Woodrow Wilson, “We are all
agreed upon the principle” that we are paying too much'
for even what might be good government, but few have ;
arisen to point their finger at specific fungus growths
attached to the machinery of State.
A glaring example of this place making and disgrace
ful extravagance is shown in the arrival in Juneau of
three Department of Justice “investigators” on a personal
“investigation” of crime conditions as have been reported
in some quarters.
During the past decade enough “investigators” have
visited Alaska, that if they had all been compelled to re
main in some useful occupation, they would have mater
ially swollen the census figures.
Anyone familiar with the system in Washington
knows that all these gentlemen are nothing more than re
cipients of donations from appreciative Congressmen and
members of the administration.
When Senator Howell drew actenton to himself while
in Alaska by frequently asking the question: “Who pays
for this?” it never occurred to him to ask himself who j
paid for his junket of alleged investigation which develop-1
ed into a hippodrome.
If there are crime conditions in Alaska requiring con-!
sideration one naturally asks why is it necessary, in the j
face of men appointed to supervise these matters, for men I
who must have a guide-book to find Alaska, to spend a j
few weeks checking up? And why, in view of regularly j
constituted executives of Federal*functions in Alaska, it!
is necessary to name super lookouts like a faro game?
The answer involves the entire question of expense of
government and the swarm of bureaucratic drones clut
tering up the landscape like mosquitoes in summer.
As long as the people fail to bestir themselves and
force these leeches off the government payroll, just so !
long will they groan under the burden of taxes.

Cable Address: "FURSALES"
Manufacturing furriers, retailers and dealers
"WANT FURS WHEN THEY WANT THEM”
modern Methods fiLSSS
of Merchandising carry large stocks
J o or for many other
equally vital reasons. Owing to this state of the
raw fur market and the necessity of meeting the
'hand-to-mouth” buying which prevails and for
tne further purpose of rendering efficient service
to buyer and shipper^
We will sell at private and
weekly floor sales!
The benefits of this"sUPERlOR SYSTEM OF SELLING”
are rapidly being recognized by successful merchants,
most of whom consider it the proper method of mar
keting furs. The advantages to TRADERS and TUR
SHIPPERS are certain to be evident in prices and prompt
returns. Fur fashions indicate raw furs reaching us will
find that ready sale and buying competition will be most
active, thus guaranteeing prompt action and best prices
to the shipper. FURTHER INFORMATION. DETAILS,

LIBERTY THEATRE
..Showing Again Tuesday
Tonight we have a feature entirely different from
the last one, in fact different from any any before.
Is based on the legend of “Calamity Jane” in the early 80’s, when
the West was still wild and woolly.
— ACTION — THRILLS — EXCITEMENT —
The type of story you sit up all night reading just to find out
how it will end.
