ADVERTISING THE GLORIES OF ALASKA
In a splendidly vigorous campaign to stimulate travel to Alaska,
three major transportation systems, Northern Pacific Railroad, Alaska
Steamship Company and the Alaska Railroad, have combined this year
to advertise the Territory during the months of March, April and May
in 13 leading magazines with a total national circulation of 2,802,299
The advertising covers one page in four colors, beautifully illus
trated with a reproduction of Sidney Lawrence’s famed painting, “Al
askans, Off to the Potlatch,” an exquisite marine subject in contrasting
colors depicting Indians sailing their canoes down the picturesque,
mountainous coast of the North to ceremonial festivities of neighboring
tribesmen.
This is the type of cooperation certain to produce results. It heralds
the beginning of a new era for Alaska in terms of progress!
THE CRIMINAL AND SOCIETY
Amdng the pertinent questions asked by the Typographical Journal
respecting the lachrymose appeal for the enemies of society now oc
cupying the penitentiaries are these:
“As anti-social individuals who are confined for crime, are they en
titled to preferential treatment upon release?
“Would you appreciate having them trained to carry on the activ
ities of a legislator so that when they are released they could use the
powers of persuasion, oratory and statesmanship taught them in the
penitentiary to compete with you?
“Who will say that a convict who has broken the law is entitled to
more consideration than your neighbor or yourself?”
In addition to showing the trend of opinion respecting the prohi
bition law, the Literary Digest poll also proves that intelligence still
preponderates in the nation.
The Governor objects to Alaska administering its furs and game. In
the same dispatch came notice that a $100,000 yacht was to be built for
the pleasure of the Game Commission—half the cost of annual adminis
tration of the game laws.
The Gateway’s delegate to the Geneva Disarmament Conference
yesterday suggested abolition of all death-dealing weapons and the
substitution of very old eggs, garlic, cabbages and pop bottles.
“The sins of the father ...” Winnie Ruth Judd’s father accepts
the blame for her turning murderer‘to his failure to build her char
acter early in life.
How will Bishop Cannon and McBride reconcile the divine principle
in prohibition with cyclones blowing three dry states out of the Union?
An astute observer declares that many speeches in Congress are
made only for political purposes. Who would have thought it?
A music publishing house reports acceptance of only three songs
out of 5,000 submitted. And safe to say they were the silliest three.
We respect a man who respects himself.
