 Then a war breaks out, and the old country Is involved in it. He watches with interest, and, just as if he were watching two men fight, he wants the one he likes best to win and he, naturally, likes his na- tive land better than the other country. Mark the word, he Hikes" her now, She is the cid sweetheart and-he has found a wife. The war goes on, and, living in peace and prosperity, he begins to abhor the horror of it all What are they killing each other for? The news comes Of gain for his old land. At the sight of the head Inc he feels thrill. Then, a sadness. What are tAey fighting about? He looks upon smiling and peaceful America, and loves her. But he feels sorry for the old country. He hates to see his old love in trouble. He hopes she will pull out all right. But what are they fighting about He remembers the old graveyard and he wonders at the thoughtlessness of it all over there.

THE APPEAL FOR VOLUNTEERS
(Kansas City Times)

NIAIilSdS t!S ilIltSI The most popular new war song in Eng land is called Fall In" One of its verses Is . How will you fare, sonny, how will you
 fare
 In the rar-Of winter night. When you sit by the fire in the old mans
 chair
 And your ncighbors talk of the fight? Will you sink away, as 1t were from a
 blow,
 Your old head shamod and bent? or say, 'I vas not with the first to go, But ! went, thank God, l Wcnt' That verse, with its sturdy swing, is good enough to be acknowledged as the lineaI descendant of these swelling lines from King Henry ": He that oujiiycs this day and come Sare
 home Will stand a-tptoc when thss day is named, And rouse hIm at the name of CrlSplan lo that shall live this day and see old age Will yearly on the vigil feast his nelghDOrS, And say. "TomorroW is saint Crl>1ian. Then will he strip his sleeve and show hlS And say, "Tncse wounds I had on Crts-

OTTER CREEK DREDGE
 SHUT DOWN FOK SEASON

The Riley & Marston drcdge, on Otter clcek, which has been closed down for some weeks on account of 2n accident to the machinery, was started up again last Sunday, but was immediately closed down again on account of further accidents, and the Gredge has been put out of commission for the winter
 This closes the mining season for the Idit- arod district, which, starting out with the promise of being one of the best in its history, proved to be but little better from the standpoint of production, than last year. This was largely due to the fact that the dredge of the Yukon Gold Company was closed down several weeks earlier than last year, and the accidents to the Riley 6 Mar ston dredge considerably curtailed its out mt

THE OLD COUNTRY"
Seattle Sun

NhNtttNiN
 To boy his native land is like his first sweetheart; and through the changes and chances that follow he will remember her thus-with feeling of regret maybe. For there are other girls and other countries, Adolescence has brought him something to focus his dreams upon To the west IS an other country-a country with greater op- portunities. He will emigrate.
 As the steamer leaves the dock friends and relatives wave their hands to him; q sob hurts his throat, and he looks pack upon the cid country -vowng he will al ways love her-will return as soon as he has made his pile-that she will always be first in his thoughts
 The years have passed The man has a family and a growing business in the coun try of his adoption. He thinks of that old land with tenderness, and-he dreams.
 In his dream he has gone back; and among strangers he seeks for the friendly faces he used to know. Men and women pass and jostle him on the altered streets. The once quiet village is now a hustling town. The shade trees have gone, and cars run where once horses struggled through the mud. He feels that he is stranger in a strange land. He cannot find the friends of youth, unless, perhaps, he walks out to the cemetery, or seeks among those who do not walk upon the street He wakes from the dream, and looks upon the fairest city in the world-tastes the breeze from the Sound sees the snow upon the Olym- pics-and finds that it is very good, Here

Mr.. Sisson is unjust to the

Mr.. Sisson is unjust to his
colleague (Stephensl in that he
transcends the code of moral
ethics which requires every

another Congressman to rake
