HATS OFF TO THE PROMOTER
The idea of the real honest-to God promoter is that
he has something good to promote to make something
for himself and something for those who help him in the
promotion That’s the A-B-C of the promoting game but
if it is done on the square it becomes a major premise
of development because no country anywhere ever real
ized the full fruition of its possibilities unless someone
was willing enough and daring enough to take a chance.
In some sections of the United States the dignity of |
the promoter is not so high. We know for a fact that in |
two states the promoter is looked upon askance if not j
with envy and he uses a high-power automobile to dodge
the postoffice inspectors, but down there he has developed
into a thimble.-rigger and a confidence man and even at j
that the suckers crowd each other to put their money in i
his pocket. Strange thing about that,—the phonier the
proposition is and the more they promise for nothing the
quicker the sucker will bite.
But the real promoter, the man with vision and ;
honest conviction is just as essential to the development
of a country as the honest homeseeker or prospector.
When the deal was put thru Congress to finance the |
Union Pacific and the Central Pacific there were plenty
of malcontents who characterized it as a great land-!
grabbing scheme. But the men behind it were men of big
vision and although there was some land-grabbing and ;
they made millions, the nation as a whole benefited by
untold billions.
Wish we had some more like them up here in Alaska, i
We’ll give them all the land they want and a few millions j
too if they will just put some money into the Territory j
for honest development. We’ve got all the stuff here but
it isn’t doing us any good. We’ve been hammering away
for years and hanging on but before we approach the ■
grave we would like to see some live ones.
BODY AND SOUL
It is sad to refect that Alaska has given itself over |
hndv and soul to the office seeker and the bureaucrat.
With but a few shining examples our legislatures devote
co much time to corraling the vote thev have little
leisure to study what the Territory really needs. In
that respect thev have a good bell-wether in the present j
delegate who has never conceived a salutary measure
for the Territory he represents, who enjoys no esteem j
whatever in the eyes of the Administration and whose
sole reason for holding office is the fact that he can call
many voters by their first name.
After several years of watchful waiting Kodiakers
are getting a real kick out of the latest news regarding
the big cold storage plant that is promised. The long an
xious period of expectancy is about to end and the fact
is already evidenced in a readjustment of real estate
values.
--o
The burning question today is why import the
“talkie’’ into Alaska when we have an alleged delegate
We’ve always, it seems, have had that kind of a “talkie.”
A popular song only remains popular until some
one writes a sillier one.
Isn’t it embarrassing to try and expectorate—spit,
in plain English—out of a' car window when the darn
thing is closed? _
