may be elevated to some extent for he finds things discussed with less of passion and more of tolerance and logic. But even here he may be led to think that like the editor of the gartlsan papers. the independent writer does sometimes look upon the "Juge de twas" when it Is red and when 1t has stick in 1t.

gicrl value to the country. She cov- CTS the northern flank and 20 long as wc are able to maintain the military control in Alaska and in Alaskan weters our northern flank is safe.
 Senator Chamberlain also speaks Of our attack which he proposes shall be delivered from Alaska as u base. fat also Is good strategy. It is well to strike the first blow and strike ii with d well defined and well equip per base behind us.
 But. suppose the enemy does not wait for us to strike Suppose the 'Hcmy feels strong enough, or Is will Ing to take a chance or Is able to pick up an ally?
 We must not forget that the west has two hauks that must be covered There is southern. as well as q nLrthern flank now hopsiSSsly open to attack.
 What Alaska, properly protected. ts |, the northern portion of the Pacific coast Magdelena bay is to the south erp portion. These two places are the hFnkers, the outposts. If we hold ttem both with a sufficient force the entire west coast will be protected fcl no enemy will attack us leaving these two bases in the rear or on his Hanks.
 It may not be necessary to acquire Magdelena bay ny conquest Japan is already trying to acquire It by l'accable means from Mexico, but acquire 1t We should and fortify it we should. With a base at Magdelenp bay both the Pacific end of the canal and the southern flank of the west l coast would be protected. With a | naval and military base in Alaska th,, northern flank would be protected. Senator Chamberlain's idea of our carrying the war to the Japanese ccast is indeed an excellent one an.i | With theS" two bases properly equip ped it would not be a hard matter | fut for those of us who do not ap- prove of war. who do not want war, there is better guarantee of peace ir preparation for defense than in preparation for offence.
 We do not want to acquire groun'l tv conquest as MT. Wilson says, but we do need Magdelena bay for self protection. and If there is no other Way of getting 1t. why even a little conquest wouldn't hurt. It would be cheaper in men and in money to ac- Irran out after she has acquired It.

Official Paper
NOME, ALASKA. JAN. IS, 1914.

In speech delivered some tim .'E" President Wllson~is quoted al saying that never again will the Uni ted States seek 10 acquire foot e "rohnd by conquest.
 Let us hope that Pr, sident vii Stn is correct in his prophecy. Ger tdiniy. if there is any other way 1T the world to acquire ground no sanr thinking American wants to acquir, il by conquest However should i become necessary that this country control certain specified ground foi self protection it should not be a matter to bubble over. If, when al other means failed. that ground was taken by conquest
 There was a speech made in the senate of the United States yester- day which was n plain and courage ous statement of fact in regard to tho importance of this country being pre- pared to defend itself against the possible aggressions of Japan. There were things said by Senator Cham berlain things that q large and fool ish class of Americans profess not to want to hear. He speaks very plain lJ about the possibility of war be- tween this country and Japan. He spoke Of this more az a possibility than as a probability. In fact Sen ator Chamberlain came very near saying that we were going to one of these days find ourselves at war with the crafty little yellow people The statesman is quite right. This coun- try Is going to be at war with Jap an just as soon as Japan feels herself strong enough to tackle the job. w will never start the mess. we arc never aggressive. we never want to fight anybody for anything.
 That being the case the very bes way for us to keep Japan. or an, other country from starting trouble just as soon as she feels stroni enough is to be prepared.
 We will never acquire another foo of ground by conquest. says Mir. Will son. Of course he is speaking of tn time while he is at the head of ma ticnai affairs. and that may be thre or seven years yet.
 But there certainly is one piece o ground that this country ought t acquire and acquire at once by pur chase or lease. It is importan enough even. to be acquired by con quest regardless of the pacific utter nnces of President Wilson.
 That ground is Magadena bay O. the west coast of Lower California.

That Is the Mexica n way of saying grape juice and 1t she cws that with all of their fighting and marching they have been getting the American papers regularly and keeping up their subscriptions.
 Both of these things are very com- mcndable in the Mexican patriots and since we have learned that they sub scribe for and read our papers We are not at all surprised that they taunt our soldiers with the insulting Judge de twas" or any other express sion which conveys the idea of con- tempt.

 They are fortifying them selves in the towns of Minove, Alost, Malines and Aerchot for defensive purposes.

BOAT ALERT LOST
 CREW SAFE

The Vendyssel Packing company's
 fishing boat Alert, operatetd from the company's station at Tyee, was wrecked in the heavy wind storm that prevailed, last Wednesday night be- tween S&etisham and Limestone in- let. SheEstruck about 10 o'clock and the crewt consisting oi Alfred Cram CT, master. and Andrew Johanson mar rowly escaped by climbing the cliffs that line the shore, The survivors arrived in Juneau last night on the gasboat Winifred Of wrangell,
 The tailshaft brokei and killed off any attempt to operate the engine. A sail was rigged in an attempt to hold the vessel or shore, but the rud- der was jammed in the wheel and the craft became unmanaEable. At ten o'clock she struck the sharp reefs near the shore and was SO badly dam aged that she would moi float.
 Cramer and Johansoa made their way to tRe shore lined, with precipi- tous cllffs, as best theS could. Af- ter walking seven hours through a driving storm. over stony cllfts and jagged rocks, reached Limestone where thay rested until the Wlnifred came along. Johanson had only one boot to wear and came through to Ju- neau with his right foos done up in rags. Both men had their hands bad ly lacerateH from climbing over sharp rocks. Johanson kicked his boots of in order to1facilitate swinmihg to the cliffs and was afterward fortunate enough to recover one of them when n came ashore.
 Cramer and Johanson will remain in Juneau until the arrival of Huno Hover, local manager of the company, who is lon the way from Tyee.
 The Alert had a gross tonnage of IS tons, net 12; was 42,3 feet in lgth, 1l.4 beam, spd 49 depth of hold. She was built at Seattle in 1910 at which place she is registered. She was Ii. censed to run by the Juneau authori- ties.

MAUBEUGE HAS
 NOT FALLEN

PARIS, Sept. 1.-The French War Office made the following statement:
 "As for Maubeuge, we have no official confirmation of it's hav- ing been taken. In the first place, it's garrison was less than half the number that the Ger man reports place it at, nor has it anything approaching the the number of guns and other equipment that they claim to have captured. For that, and other reasons deemed satisfac- tory no credence is placed in the Berlin statement"

TWO ELECTIONS TO
 BE HELD NOV. }

The officials of the First Judicial Division have decided that there will be two elections in Alaska on the Sd of next November-one for the cleo tion of a Delegate to Congress and one for election of members of the Territorial Legislature-and that two tickets and two ballot boxes must be used.
 The question is one that has been vexing the officials for some time. While 1t is believed that the Legisla- ture intended that there should be one election. with one ticket and one bal lot box, the wording of the statute was such that 1t worried those who had to act under 1t. and in the First di- vision the final decision was as stated.
 The same election officers and poll. ing places will be used and the same hours observed for both elections,
 Clerk of the Court J. W. Bell is. sued a circular letter of instructions to election officers yesterday setting forth the construction of the statute.
 The letter says:
 "The provisions of the Acts of Con gress of May 2, 1906 and August 24, 1912; provide for two elections, one for Delegate to Congress and one for the Territorial Legislature.
 Tt will be necessary to provide, two ballot boxes, one to be marked Dele gate" and one to be marked "Legisla- ture"
 Separate tally sheets and cetrih. cates of results should be returned for the Delegate and Legislature"
 How Votes Wlll Be Counted.
 It is further held by Clerk of the Court Bell that if a ballot containing a vote for Delegate and Legislative candidates is put in the Delegate" box; only the vote for Delegate will be counted; and if ballot containing votes for the Delegate and Legislative candidates is put in the Legislature" box only the Legislative ballot will be counted.
 Election Supplies Go Out.
 Clerk of the Court Bell is today sending out the election supplies and instructions to election officers. The supplies include poll lists, taly sheets and certificate for returns, etc.
