LESLIE’S JUMBLES.
According to the record; of the
whaling station at Seagirt on the
Pacific side of Vancouver island, a
whale was caught recently that had a
ton of bone in its head. We estimate
that if the hone in the heads of two of
these creatures could he graded on a
man, that particular individual would
make a good running mnto, from an
intellectual stand point, for the Editor
of Leslie’* Weekly. Tn the issue of
February 26, of this paper, appears an
article entitled “Unlocking a Long
Neglected Empire," hv one Oswald F.
Schuette, that for ignoranceof subject,
misstatements of fact, common error, !
and all around lack of knowledge per-j
raining to Alaska, is the worst wo j
have ever read, not excepting state- |
ments by some of our congressmen. |
Among some of the most glaring errors !
is a picture of the water front at Sew- j
ard entitled “Valdez, Alaska, where |
the construction of a railroad from j
Cordova to Fairbanks may begin” and !
jus* below appears a picture of the
water front of Valdez, labeled “Town
j
of Seward, on Coronation bay one of
the proposed starting points of the
Government Railway." Tn another
part of the article, lie mentions Sew
ard as being on Controller bay, as well
as the proposal to start the “Cordova- i
Fairbanks line from Valdez.” It is
har'd fur one to believe that any person
so ignorant of a subject would attempt
to write an article on the same, and
harder to*believe that an intelligent
editor would accept such an article
and give it publicity without at least
looking into the facts of the matter,
unless the article was published to
wilfully mislead and confuse the read- f
ing public.
Last summer Leslie's sent a repre
sentative, Edgar Allen Forbes, to j
Alaska with the Seattle Chamber of!
Commerce excursion. Since his re
turn, Mr. Forbes has written a num-1
ber of clever discriptive articles con
cerning Alaska, but through them all
has been noticed the underlying strata
of kow, towing to ‘‘big business,” on a
line with the editorial policy of the
paper he represents, which never
overlooks an opportunity to boost for
the big interests and especially the
Gugirenheims, with a full page boost
for Cordova, a Gugg town, out of
•which runs a Gugg-owned railroad,
that the Yid aggregation are doing
their best to unload on the present
administration, but without a chance
of success.
