NOME, ALASKA. FEB. 6. 1914.

Wars and rumOrs of wars alr float. ing above the clear sky of peace which Las ever seemed so desirable to this country of ours. No country which IS right minded country wants war fer wars sake. But there comes d time in the history of every land when to fight is a necessity.
 For this purpose il is always well for nation to be prepared. We hay lednrcd from bitter experience that our country will never be prepared for war when War comes. That is because we are rather unfortunate in having T form of government whereby We send l. our legislatures men who are more interested in themselves than they are in the country. Men who decline to see any pC gsibile chance of conflict or any reason why the country should be prepared for conflict.
 The average legislator state or na- t'cnal is in reality a very small man He appears large in his own little district but his own little district s net any larger than the caliber of the man that il sends to represent it.
 These small men. whose viewpoint is for the most part purely local are the men who are in the majority in 'l.e legislatures and in the national congress. They do not amount to very much one way or another and arc usually merely trailers for the few bic men who run the legislation, either fol the c".ntrys good or for the good ot tn" interests which have put them ir trCir positions.
 !:t'I when it comes to a question O. rational defense there arc no inter, ests" behind the measure Therefor, the big men do not take the intiativ, aEu the little men do not trail.
 And when the war comes, the Wa which is inevitable or the war whicl might have been prevented by beint properly prepared who is it goes t the front and does the fighting? No the little politician or the big polite ian. but just the plain American citizel of every class, social or commercial.
 Not long ago. speaking in the capi tol at Washington. one of the Unite, H,nies senators said that in the even of war with Mexico it would be tn capitalists the moneyed classes wh, would rush to Washington and insis that the farmers boys and the sens o th1 merchant and the workingman b, sent to the front to bear the sacrifice

To Each AGE Its Problems.

1t is not enough that we leave our
institutions as our fathers shaped them.
They knew little or nothing of the con-
ditions which we face. Sufficient unto
the age is the work thereof. II is not
the right of any generation to project
its will into the future, but it is the
duty Of each generation to adjust its
institutions to meet its own needs.
Men need not wait until death to
realize many of their ideals. They can
have things here on earth which their
fathers associated with the millennium.
They need no longer overwork nor go
cold and hungry nor suffer from pesti-
lence or even famine. Machinery has
provided the possibilities Of a new life.
When all of these possibilities are real
ized-when no one is overworked. cold
or hungry. when all are leading joyous.
purposeful lives-adjustment will be
