The Criminal Class
Are In
Their Element Now
Editor Yukon Valley News.
I see from an obscure source
mention made that another man
had gone wrong, having joined the
criminal element. Wonder who
was meant—if it was the fellow
who used to put himself on record
weekly in glowing articles on the
excellence of the public officials of
this judicial division ot Alaska;
who used to take the responsibility
on himself of speaking the public
approval of the official acts of those
officers until many of us began to
wonder what tune he was going to
set to the piece; but who is now
just as busy telling us that the same
officials are the most corrupt,
vicious, unqualified, and all the
other terms we have so recently
become familiar with public offi
cials, until many of us again begin
to wonder what tune to this song,
and frome whence cometh this flood
of inconsistency? Oh. man! how
can you walk out on God’s green
earth and see all nature spread out
oetore you to to teacn you tiie les
sons of truth ? how can you look
your fellow man in the face without
offering some plausible excuse for
your inconsistency? Is it because
you have gone wrong and joined
the criminal class? That fellow
you told us about as steering a
packed political caucus in this
town—you remember you made
public mention of him at that time
in very unfavorable terms; he will
likewise remember the fact—I hate
reference to that certain individual
who struck our town some three
years ago and who has never since
that time been guilty of doing a
day’s labor, who has no visible
means of support except the faculty
of working people for his board,
room and pocket money on the pre
tense that he has a brother in
Arizona who has him pensioned off
at so much per year; also, that he
has tbe disposal of the federal offices
of this judicial division, to those
who will stand tu be worked Did
you mean yourself when you said
another man had gone wrong and
the criminal class were in their
element now ? and did you mean
this other fellow as that criminal?
If so, we will begin to think that
you have ceased to bend and warp
the truth about as you have so often
done in the past. I lielieve you
spoke something of having that
fellow go down the river on a tog,
how would it be for you both to
climb on' I’ttv to separate friends
Just think what profound legal ad
\ vice your companion could give
| you on the way, and you would not
i n«e 1 to quarrel on the trip as you
already have done over his packing
that political caucus.
