.Many months will not elapse
when the simple I'm' office un

jears have elapsed sinee I lie Dem

national victory; many lean >ears
have whetted llieir hunger fur the
flesh pots; an insatiable desire
possesses them I*«»r the power
which eoines with nat ional rnle.
it so happens that a number «»f
important, federal olfices in Alas
ka Jieemne vaeant within a few
weeks after President Wilson's
inauguration. For these posi
tions there are no lark of candi
dates; their name is lcyion. and
they are, as well, insistent that
these positions be made vacant at
I lie lirst opportunity.
The old .lacksonian I lieory.
Hi at "to tin* victor belongs the
spoils," has not wholly died out
north of ai. and as a consequence
we may expect lively times when
1he official bars are to be let
down. It is not all harmony and
brothdrly love within the Demo
cratic pasture; neither can it be
expected that the race for pivfer
Jiicut will In* conducted under
Cheslertieldiaii rules. The politi
cal pandoras box will be opened
and there is no telling when I lit*
shafts of venom loosened will
again be hidden away.
It is to lie sincerely hoped,
"however, that wherever appoint
ments are made, they be accep
table to the people most directly
concerned. .Many good and rap
able men have been named for
posit ions, while, in other instan
ces, appointment^ could be made
anion.u the aspirants fop political
pr'ferment. which would be re
ceived wiili violent opposition by
a majority of the people, who in
sist that appointments of men
be made in whom tin* public have

Alaska cannot consistent ly ob

right to object to the appointment

The Time
To advertise. If business is qul3i
invigorate it by bringing your
wares before the buyer. No mer
chant ever succeeded by cutting
down his advertising Just because
money tightened up a little. On
the other hand the merchant who
gets the money Is the one who
creates a demand for his wares
through the advertising columns
of the newspaper.
If you have something for sale
write up an advertisement telling
its merits. We will bring it be
fore the peoplo and are confident
It will bring results. Try It.
