THE MAN OF A THOUSAND VOTES
Whether one agrees in entirety with him or not, those
who heard William L. Paul speak at Odd Fellows Hall
Thursday evening were convinced of one cardinal distinc
tion and that is consistency and courage.
Backed by popular opinion, and given a cause consid
ered worthy, Mr. Paul is the sort of man who would dedi
cate himself to tiie task leading the movement to success.
As announced by the speaker, this was his first visit
west of Cordova, and those who were privileged to hear
him speak saw an entirely different man from what his
political enemies had painted. They were given an oppor
tunity to analyze the cause why a thousand native voters
seek and accept his counsel in matters political and why,
despite the thrust delivered by his political opponents and
lures and snares set for his undoing, they have been un
able to shake the faith not only of the natives but a strong
following of white fishermen.
Radicalism being an interpretative and debatable
term, is no more the distinguishing quality of William L.
Paul than it might be for any one of those seeking politi
cal favor. If it is expressed in the act of giving whole
hearted dedication to a cause and standing or falling bj
it, then Mr. Paul is the sort of radical that unfortunately
is too scarce in Alaskan politics.
One of his outstanding achievements is the giving of
cohesiveness to a movement and organizing a strong
force to give it perpetuity. In this the Native Brother
hood have exceeded their white brothers in genius and
initiative.
If all Alaska was as well organized and marshalled as
is the Native Brotherhood, and gave the same support t(
their leaders, there would be little question of the result.
While pointing this as a solution of Alaskan troubles
Mr. Paul exemplified it in his own success in keeping hk
battle lines intact and always ready for action.
A clean-up of burlesque shows is urged. There was a
time when entertainment of that kind was regarded as
racy and questionable. Considering the lengths to whicf
motion pictures and modern novels have gone, a pcrsor
wonders what is left in burlesque that is so characteris
tically bad that it has to be cleaned up.
The White Pass & Yukon Railway has installed tht
first rubber-tired gas-car operated on Western railroads
“Bouncing new equipment” one might say.

The ill-fate of the SS. Nevada
and the loss of so many lives as
well as a couple more marine dis
asters in the far-flung Aleutian Is
lands, has focused the attention
of marine and sea-faring men to
the need of a powerful lighthouse
on Amatrignak Island, where the
Nevada foundered.
A Seattle newspaper recently
pointed out that besides making
present sea travel in that area
much safer, a strong light would
serve to attract more commercial
ships to the great circle route- It
was said that if this great circle
route were made safe by the proper
; lighthouse facilities the commer
! cial ships, now using longer routes,
i would scon be surging up past the
| Aleutians. Because of this it was
j pointed out that Seattle and he
Puget Sound would benefit greatly.
Dr. A. R- Roberts, Seward den
tist, departed on the SS Yukon for
Valdez where he will be engaged
during the coming week.
Next Tuesday, Oct., 18, is Alaska
Day, and in proper observance of
of this Territorial honor, the Bank
of Seward, the Postoffice, govern
ment offices and The Gateway
will be closed.

' kon from Cordova where he ha:
