NOME, ALASKA, MAY g, 1914.

When an advance movement seems -to be necessary by the United States army upon Mexico City the country finds itself in need of an army of fifty thousand men. which is two thirds of the full strength of our puny standing army. If the Mexican people would combine their forces and act upon the defensive a much larger army would be required before the American forces would reach that city. A war with even small nation, without a navy or a treasury. distracted by internal revolution and without credit calls for the full strength of our army and navy and the militia of the country. If for this time this great big nation of ours the richest upon earth, would find it. self in humiating position and would be unable to protect itself let alone enforce her demands upon other countries. Like a great overgrown giant untrained, and untrained is un- able to defend himself an is but as a pigmy in the hands of the trained ethlete so this great big money mak- ing country of ours is among the na- tions of the world which are always in training, equipped and ready at all times to fight How long will the American people remain in this de- fcnseless position? Must a giant hu- maliating crisis come upon US before wt learn that among nations of armed camps that the only guarantee against war is to be prepared for war. The words of Secretary of War Garrison addressed to the American people are words of warning.
 He says:
 It Is absoutely essential for any nation today to maintain sufficient force to secure the carrying out Of its decrees. We all believe that the ten ency of the American government is towards righteousness; that we have no desire for aggrandizement for op- pression or for taking away from any one or any nation that which right fully belongs to 1t. But we also know that it takes two to keep the peace and that we cannot safeguard the inter- ests of our people without the force constantly ready to maintain and se- cure it.
 For one thing. I think the people fail to discriminate between their ab- solute hatred of bloodshed and wal and the function of the army in re spect thereto. For the firemen. tht physician. the engineer and for tho clergyman, none of us has words

The thoughtless laughed when d that his wife was 80 set against the death penalty that he could not serve, although he himself was unprejudiced. How many of the jeering ones are themselves under domestic discipline it would be easier to guess if we knew how many are married.
 Within certain limits the veto power of wives is practically universal. If this juryman had helped send a fel- low human being to death his wife would have looked upon him as little better than 8 murderer. He was pro-
 perly excused; 1t is against public
 policy to SOW such seeds of domestic discord. Other wives have their taboos. and lawfully forbid their husbands to
 dc things prescribed in their codes
 ranging all the way from tracking mud over the floor to taking excessive risks in business.
 Scientists who love to muss up sim pie facts with big words say that mer are dynamic, women static. Men in. vent, explore, experiment. risk; womer conserve. hold fast. guard traditions proprieties and possessions Men pro. pose; women dispose. or at any rate oppose; and all progress is conditioned by the perpetual conflict of their al vergent forces.
 So viewed. the most unanswerabl' reason in the world for a mans doinl CT not doing a certain thing in cour of review at home. It is the predes tination that ever dogs free will, ant from it there is no escape.

ManI0W, German Gunner, Says
 He Will Bombard City For Sev eral Days Endorsements Arrive For MaytOrena'S Camp

The Mexican warfare at Naco yes terday developed into a siege of the Mexican city by the Yaqui forces who are conducting the attack un- der General Maytorena. Bombs and schrapnel were directed into the city and the trenches surrounding the city during the whole of the day with consistent accuracy, and with re- sultant death and destruction.
 The Southern Pacific depot build ing and freight department, and five freight cars, one loaded with sugar, and three passenger coaches. were all of them destroyed by the fire which started immediately after one of the schrapnel shells broke in the depot building Alcohol which was stored in one end of the store room and which 1t is supposed was ignited by the explosion is blamed for the rapid gain of the flames, and it is attributed to this that the fire was not halted
 Earlier in the day one shell missed the headquarters in which General Hill has established himself by a few feet, and exploded almost in front of the building. Another shell flying over the small building on which was located machine gun took the head from one of the Mexi- cans who was operating the gun. On- ly a pile of baled hay in front of the quartet where is established the Red Cross quarters. saved the occupants of the hospital from a rain of ledden schrapnel Five were seen from the American side to fall when one of the shells broke, three fell at the ex- plosion of a second, and seven at the breaking of a third
 Of the fifty or more schrapnel shells which were fired in the city, none are thought to have been vast ed yesterday. All Of them did con- siderable damage, and many of them were deadly in their execution, es. pecially when they exploded in the trenches about the Mexican position
 The small war of firearms con tinued through the day and culmin ated in a small battle lasting ten minutes at 12:5O o'clock this morn ing The battle broke on the west ditch and for a few minutes the ex | plosions of mines and hand bombs led those on the American side tC believe that the Yaquis were agaiI attempting to storm the city. How ever, later it developed that smal | detachment of the west camp fol lowers had come in close and opene, on the ditches. The reply was thu

LONDON, October 15.-Two great battles one in northern France and Belgium the other in Russian Poland both with a front of three hundred miles. have reached their height, bat the rIblic is allowed only an occa. sional glance at their progress through official communications which are ire quenuy widely at variance
 Fron the French report 1t appears that u.e western battle is going slow ly but surely in favor of the allies aud under the pressure of the troops of the allies the Germans who started @ nadvance on Calais and other French coast ports have been forced to evac- upte the left bank of the Lys river, which is a considerable distance east cf u points their advance guards reached last week Further east in the Lens district and southward be. tween Arras and Albart where the Germals made their initial attempt 10 work around the allies left the English and French have made nota- SlC progress"
 Evidence that German assaults arc being delivered 8ith less force 's conveyed in an inumation that be tween Somme and Disc their artillery attacks are not being followed up with infantry charges It is possible that they have withdrawn some oi treir troops from this position t- strengthen their advance toward tho coast out it is considered that this would be risky as it might permit thc allies tc break through and interrupt comm, nications with their armies lighting north of Aisne.
 In the center the allies also hay, advanced, particularly toward Craon ne and several German ranches art reported to have been carried to th, northeast of the road from Berry Al Pac Co Rheims and to the north O. Punay in the direction of Beine which is slightly to Che southeast o , 3lemg

 DEED IS GLORIOUS
So Declares PrinCep, The Man Who By Murdering Arch Duke And Wife Brought Europe Into International Warfare

ROME, Oct 15.-Additional details were received here of the arraign- ment at Sarajovo Tuesday of GavrI1 PrinziD, assassin of Archduke Francis Ferdinand of Austria together with Prinzip' wife and twenty one other alleged accomplices in the crime.
 According to these details Prinzip in addition to having admitted he shot the Archduke and his wife. de- clared that far from repenting h's deed. he is proud of what he has done. r. was not a crime he said, as his object to not to kill the man, but to show the world the desperation to which the whole slav population under Austria has been reduced
 After the slavs have tried every means, legal and illegal to obtain justice snd recognizition to their rights. Prinzip said Austria continued to trample on their nationality, lang. uage. culture, religion and everything which the Slav nation as whole or families as individuals considered most sacred, using an weapons at its disposal
 "The moment arrived when rebel lion were duty and when the only thing possible was to resist by strik ing the individual who incarnated such despotc, retrograding and cruelty tyranny. Prinzip declared.
 The prisoner grew eloquent as Inc proceeded, declaring he is no more a criminal than these Hungariars, ltal ians, Poles or lrishmen," who because of the same distressing conditions in their countries during the 18th century followed Kossuth, Mazzini, Mieroslav ski anc Daniel OConnol in attckinl tyrants and tyranny regardless o the means they need

DEMOCRATS
 OPEN FIRE
 IN LOWELL
Successful Meeting In Lowell Plaza Is Attended By Several Hundred Enthusiastic Mem
 berS Of Party From District
Wiley Jones Principal Speaker, Followed By Many Others Boosts State Party And Takes Crack At Roosevelt Party

A large and enthusiastic crowd was present at the democratic rally in Lowell last night Every seat in the plaza was filled and many per- sons were standing The meeting last ed from 7:3O to 10 and the speakers held the attention of the audience throughout.
 Those on the state ticket who spoke were Wiley D. Jones. candidate for attorney general; J. C. Callaghan, can didate for state auditor; P. J. Miller. candidate for the state tax commits sion. Other speakers were Owen F. Murphy. candidate for county record CT. and George R. Smith, justice of the peace in Lowell The speakers were introduced by Dr. W. P Sims, candidate e5- the legislature
 The principal speaker of the eve ming was Wiley E. Jones and he made a splendid campaign argument in flaw or of the democratic ticket, both na' tional end state. He took occasion to roast Theodore Roosevelt recalling his statehood record and relating how he tried to saddle Arizona onto New Mexico and make one state out of them. He denied that Roosevelt is a real Progressive. saying he organize1 the party purely out of spite because he lost the republication nomination. He also denied the right of the Bull Noosers to claim the woman's vote, giving reasons why they were not entitled to do so.
 Speaking of state politics MT Jones boosted the democratic ticket from Governor Hunt down. In regard to his own race he said he was running against a Joe-Joe ticket-Joe Morrison on the republican ticket and Joe Alexander on the Bull Moose ticket that he had nothing against these gentlemen personally both being friends of his, but that their political record wasn't the finest in the world
 J. c. Callaghan, state auditor and candidate for reelection in a short speech gave some good democrati, doctrine. Incidentally he told of th- duties of his office and what had been accomplished. The fact that Mir Cal laghan Ina sno opposition for re-ele" tion alone speaks well for his record
 Mir. Miller told of the duties of tho tax commission and what had beer accomplished by it in the past an. why the members asked for re-elec tion on their record. MT Murphy ana MT. Smith spoke mostly of local con ditions and also praised the stat' ticket
 Mitt Sims, candidate for state treas urer. was present but did not speak He will probably speak at the meet ing tonight Before long the presen squad of democratic speakers will b joined by Senator Mark Smith an, F A. Jones, who are now in the east

Octo- Der 16-As a result of Col Maritz'g rebellion in the northwest cape prov inces general Louise Botha, premier of the Union of South Africa and commander of the troops of the union is taking the field earlier than origi- nally intended.

 Commandants, field comets and burghers who served under Botha in the South African war. are rallying to his call irrespective of their politl- cal feeling to fight alongside the English in defense of the empire against which they were in arms twelve years ago This fact had g marked effect on the wavers who are now hocking to Botha's standard.
 Other rebels within the Union hay ing openly declared themselves, the government considers itself not obllg- ed to deal gently with them out of consideration of certain Dutch peo- ple's who although they are not strong supporters of the government are said 10 have drawn a line at re- bellion The government is also adopting stern measures by arresting prominent men suspected of sowing sedition and charging them with high treason.
 General Herotz who has been one of Botha's most bitter opponents. has placed his services at the disposal Of the premier.
