PROPOSES REINDEER
 FOR PRIBILOFF


 Dr. E. Lester Jones, deputy com missioner of fisheries, says that the placing of reindeer on the Pribiloff Island will probably be the saving of the natives there. pr. Jones has just made a careful study of conditions in the fishery line and has seen this in. dustry in a very clear light which will enable him to show where much good can be done. He also investigated conditions among the natives and noted that there has been more or less injury worked against them by the stringent laws which govern fishing and trapping particularly on the Aleu- tian peninsula. The lack of educa- ton on the part of the natives pre-. vents them from grasping the justice of the new laws and regulations which stopped tho killing of the sea otter, fur seals, etc, just for meager exis- tence. He believes that as the natives are charge on the government these and other matters should be looked in- to before leglslating on them. In many cases the natives are in want and sometimes are afraid to fish at all. Seward Gateway.

LAND WITHDRAWAL
 IS GOOD OMEN

The withdrawal by President VII. son of all unoccupied and unclaimed land around Fairbanks and Cinema is no bad omen for the camp. The indication Is that the president ex- poets our coming railroad to do great things for Fairbanks, and the rail road being a government enterprise and paid for by all the people, ho proposes that the government shall reap some of the benefit from the railroads building, instead of allow ing spectators and townsite boomers to reap all the profit.
 We can take 1t for granted that the people of Fairbanks and Cinema have all the land in this section that they need, and so the order cannot hurt them. The people have been here for the past decade or more and have had every opportunity to grab such lands as they wanted. They had plenty of warning when the railroad bill was passed, and they probably have all the land they can use legitimately. If the govern ment with its railway makes Fair banks a great city, the increase in the price of land in this vicinity having been caused by the govern ments enterprise. the government is entitled to it's rakeoff. - Fairbanks News-Miner.

ABOUT
 HISTORIC CLIENT

With the German front extending toI Mechlin to Ghent we are taken back to 15SS when, during the War of the Liberation. when the line from Mech lin to Ghent was one other time the scene of action.
 Perhaps the feature of that war which will impress the present day reader as being most unique, com pared with modern warfare, is the fact that the armies then contesting used skates in winter attacks and maneuvers. The invading Spaniards inflicted such horrible cruelties upon the cities of Mechlin and Hearlem that many complaints were uttered against the Duke of Ava, commission ed by King Philip to end the war, and he was eventually recalled. The Spanish advance was steady and ter rible and the armies were forced to raise their siege of Leyden only by cutting the dikes 80 that barges load ed with men and supplies might re- lieve the town.
 In 1876 the Spanish troops mutinied at Antwerp. because of the lack of pay, and the city was sacked with savage cruelty. Someone has said, Not in all the cruel and bloodstained annals of the Netherland troubles are my pages to be found more filled with horrors than those which tell the story of the Spanish Fury at Ant werp." At this point Ghent comes into the affair. being the city where the outraged provinces drew up the "Pacifcation of Ghent" which post poned the religious difficulty.
 The city of Ghent is located at the confluence of the Lys and the Scheldt rivers and Is divided into number Of islands. Some of it's bridges are very beautiful, as are the promenades in the newer parts of the city.
 The Marche du Vendredi, an exten' sive square has figured in many i'm portant events in Belgium's history and near 1t is the famous nunnery of Les Berguinagcs. founded in the thir teenth century, the principal occupa' tion of it's members being lace-making
 Ghent has long been celebrated as a manufacturing town, especially for its cotton goods and laces. Hats, rib bons. delft ware and tobacco play a large part in exports.
 Ghent is first mentioned as town in the seventh century. In the ninth century 1t was fortified for the first time by Baldwin. the first Count of Flanders, in an endeavor to prevent in, vasion by the Normans.
 When the Netherlands fell into the power of France during the Napoleon ic rule in 17s2, Ghent was made the capital of the department of Escant (Scheldt) In 1874 it became. with Flanders, a part of the Netherlands, and so remained until the separation of Belgium and Holland.

The demand for information on the part of foreigners ir the United States as to how to become citizens has be come so great since the outbreak of war in Europe that the librarian of the Seattle public library has com. piled a list of books from which they can secure the information which they desire.

PRESIDENTS APPEAL
 TO HIS couNTRYMEN

President Wilson's appeal to his
 countrymen for the strict observance of the spirit of neutrality while sister nations are at war Is patriotic and timely. and emphasizes the gravity of the crisis through which the world is passing. His good counsel will be taken to heart by every true Ameri- can. It is too much to believe that agencies seeking to embroil his coun. try will cease their activities or that jingoists and political busybodies will hold themselves in restraint, but the great mass of peace-loving. high.mind- ed people may be depended upon to heed the presidents admonition and thus minimize the perils of the stu. ation.
 The difficulties besetting the gov ernment at Washington are very great and likely to increase as the days go on. Thus far they have been met coolly. stout.heartedly and resolutely. The great financial interests, having much at stake, have given generous
 and patriotic cooperation in the emergency - supplementing promptly the efforts to relieve Americans abroad and, at the same time, bringing about a readjustment upon sound basis of our material affairs, so rudely disturbed by the unforeseen conflict. All this is to be accepted as a matter of course, Never has the government lacked such cooperation and support in any crisis.
 But it is to the great mass of Americans that the government must look for aid in maintaining in strict letter and spirit the nations position as a neutral. It is a time, not for air. ing prejudices and manifesting sym pathies, but for sober.thinking and re- strained opinion. By such national de- pertinent will the country be kept at peace and its instrumentality for the restoration of the peace of the world be all the more potent ultimately. Surely, then, there will be quick re- sponse to the presidents appeal and the spirit of the entire land will be in full accord with his patriotic worlds Seattle Post-Intelligencer.

MIR. eUNNELL WILL
 WIN WITHOUT DOUBT

Backed by his own personality, the expressed desire of the President that Alaska may be represented in Wash. ington by a Democrat. and the desire of the people of the Territory to dem- onstrate to the administration that the many measures for the develop. ment of Alaska are fully appreciated, Mir. Bunnell will. without doubt, re. ceive majority vote at the election next November.-Cordova Times.
