Away down Alsace. which Is sell

there has been fighting, which, how
ever, both French and German state
ments ignore. Twice during the week
reports have come from Basel that
the Germans have been defeated there

Gerlin says the fortress OF Belfort
has been attacked with mortars.

Reports Differ.
Reports Of fighting In east Prussia.
Poland. Galicla and Hungary arc 80
widely at variance that It is diff

battles. Austria claims to be driving
the Russians out OF Hungary. while
the EMsslnn generals say they are
leaving the country to escape infec-
ton from cholera.
Berlin says the OalicIan fortress OF
Przemysl, has been. relieved, while
the Russian report; received through
Rome, says the fortress ut. last has

there was a surfeit of the fantastic,

ordinary quality and never lasted quite
long enough to pail on the more eNaeting

NOME, ALASKA. MARCH 7. fo14

We are informed hy telegraph that q certain Archdcacon Stuck does not favor the building of railroads iii Alaska at this particular time and the same informant tells us that thu worthy gentleman is of the opiniol. that it would be quiet sufficient if tn, government would run q few wagon roads through the country.
 Now archdeacuns are all very well ana may be very necessary in certain. lines of work. We dc not know cnougl. about the actual duties of the office. il il is an office, to feel qualified to speak as to the actual necessity of archdeacons. They probably AEi, necessary and they probably have st me function to perform which is ai some advantage to someone. some where.
 If they have such functions it IS quite right and proper for them to keep steadily on the job of deaconins and never let chance get by to boost for the importance of their work.
 But when one of the dear gentlemen takes it upon himself to say that wha, Alaska needs now is a wagon road and Tot railroad We must beg leave ,u his depth.
 The worthy archdeacon, who IS telling the people back in Boston what Alaska needs, may know all about th4 s Tt of roads that man must travel tC reach the heavenly fields and per haps the good old wagon road of the early pioneer days of the west and the middle west is as good q religious read to travel as arc the more clab- crate highways to heaven provided by the churches of today or the byways alleged to lead to the same place hundred and one founders of new sects and religions. But when he be- Gins to discuss the sort of roads that Alaska needs to lead into her vast cCal fields and other mineral deposits he Is surely just little bit out~ of his province.
 The people of Alaska who demand tlat their land be opened to develop n.ent by the building of railroads ana hn ,I,s l.. listened to the appeal of the Alaslians, investigated their claims and heard iieir arguments. came to the conclu~ slon that it was not wagon road oi the days of the western praires and the mountain trails that was needed in Alaska just now but first class broad gunge all steel and a yard wide modern railroad of the latest and most
