COLORADO'S CRIME.
THOSE statutes proposed by thi
Governor of Colorado and abou
to be adopted by the Legislatun
are good, but their enforcement wil
be better.
Had Colorado enforced the laws shi
now has most of the grievances of thi
strikers would have been automatical
ly eliminated. Had Colorado main
tained her own authority few of thi
indescribable atrocities that have tak
en place in this civil war could by anj
possibility have happened.
Whatever crimes have been commit
ted by mine-operators and strikers, thi
greatest crime has been committed bj
the State of Colorado: for Its crimi
is a crime against free government.
Goethnls against free tolls? Is I
possible that this man. in whom wi
had all taken such pride as a distin
guished American, was digging tha
canal for Great Britain all the timi
that we were bestowing praise? Wil
Hearst and McLean dare say so? 1
not, shouldn't they retract some o
the things they have said about Wil
son and Bryan?
PLAYING WITH FIRE.
JE. CHILBERG. Scott Bone anc
other Seattle business men hav<
returned from Eastern trips
wher? they associated with those ol
"Big Business." enthused with the
prospect of defeating the Democratic
party and the Wilson administration
at the next elections. What are we to
believe from this? Are we to take it
as an indication that all this talk
about accepting the President's "New
Freedom" for business was mere pre
tense? Are we to understand that the
criticism of the foreign policy of the
administration by Champ Clark,
Hearst. McLean and other Democrats
and pretended Democrats and the
jingoes generally has inspired those of
"Big Business" with the belief that
a chance is before them to get Wilson
out of the way while they reinstate
the reactionary elements in power and
restore the old class-advantage system?
In short, was "Big Business" simply
playing possum?
0 If this surmise is correct, some peo
1 pie are playing with Are. If a com
0 bination should be formed strong to
I. unhorse the Wilson administration and
'the party that is devoting its efforts
0' to eliminate class distinctions and re
0 establish equality before the law in
-: this country those who accomplish It
" may live to regret their work. If it is
' demonstration that this Nation must
* be governed by a class in the interest
'' of a class rather than by all classes
for all classes?If it shall come to the
- point where all must be with one class
J or the other?it will be found that mil
?' lions who have believed that the com
> petltive system with equality of op
portunity is yet possible in the coun
try will align themselves with the
t class that is not as high as "Big Busi- '
* noss" when measured by the financial
* | scale. If the "System" should be again
t restored to power it is not likely that
' those who next defeat it will present
1 a program that is as satisfactory or as
f fair to the general business interests
f of the Nation as is the policy of the
- present administration.
Gen. Villa, be his faults what they
may. is the one man in Mexico who
[seems to have the clearest ideas of
' what all the fuss south of the Rio
* Grande Is about, and what the equities
' of the situation require.
r
( It is always satisfactory to Alaska
? when the center of activity is trans
1 ferred from the State. War or Navy
1 Departments to the Interior Depart
ment. It is more than satisfactory
; when the transfer is from all three
of the Departments at the same time.
Juneau's water front street won't i
down. The people will never be whol
ly satisfied until they have the thor- .
oughfare.
The Ladies' Musical club and its
large appreciative audience last night
gave a complete demonstration that .
commercial and industrial develop
ment is not the only kind of develop
, ment that interests the people here.
