AMERICAN READERS
 ARE BEST INFORMED

The New York correspondent of Le Temps pays an honestly earned com pliment to the American newspapers when he says that Americans are in- fnitely better informed about the war than any Europeans, even the neu- trals."
 Indeed the American newspapers are the only newspapers that have really printed the news of the war, a statement that anybody can verify for himself by studying the files of the British, German and French papers since the beginning of hostilities.
 The Now York newspapers print more of the important British war news than do the British newspapers. They print more of the important German war news than do the Ger man newspapers. They print more Of the important French war news than do the French newspapers. And, as the correspondent of Le Temps re- marks, they have received news from everywhere. from belligercnt and neu- tral countries. and also censored and uncensored dispatches which ratify and clarIfy each other"
 The German newspapers print no important news except the German of. fcial statements which are printed in New York, They have none of the French and English news, and are uniformly silent about German revers- es. The English newspapers are not allowed to print some of the English news that finds it way to New York. For example, the American people knew about the landing of the Brit ish troops in France nearly two weeks before it was made public in Great Britain. Although the French cen sorship is not so strict as the German or 90 stupid as the British censorship, the American newspapers have been able, nevertheless, to print a great deal of news about the operations of the allied armies in France which was not p inted in the French press. In ad- dition, the reports printed in New York of the operations of the Russian and Austrian armies have in the main been confirmed, although the news from the east is consistently colored by both sides.
 Thanks to the enterprise and energy of their newspapers, the American people are the only people who know what is really going on in Europe New York World.

 @BLUEBERRY KID" CASE

RUBY, Sept. 15.--J L. Anders, dep uty United States marshal stationed at Hot Springs, came down on the Alice Thursday He remained here a short while and then went down the river with Thomas DeYane in the launch Robert E. Lee. They were toI pick up Deputy Marshal Berg at Nu- lato and then proceed up the Koyukuk river to make search for evidence in the Blueberry Tommy supposed murder case, It is thought that even yet, after two years time, 1t may be possible the body of some of the vic tins may be located. If the body of a white woman found across from Mountain Village on the lower Yukon proves to be that of Marie Schmidt one Of the supposed victims, then 1t is barely possible that the body of John Holmberg or F. J, Adams, the other two members of the party who disappeared when she did, may have lodged aicng the Koyukuk. While the task of gathering evidence after this period of time has elapsed is difficult, it is considered by those familiar with the circumstances in the case that the effort is step in the right di- rection and goes to show that while the Department of Justice at Wash ington is very slow to act in such matters it is not impervious to con stant and persistent hammering.
 The officials of both the marshars and district attorneys offices, local ly and at Fairbanks, have been ham, mering away for over year and half. and the desired authority to in- cur the investigation has just recent ly been granted at Washington.
 Blon, A. Dodge accompanied the par ty as far as Nulato, Fromshhat point he expected to take the Alice as far as Mountain Village. at which place he will interview and secure the ser vices. if possible, of the natives that found and buried the body of a white woman. An inquest will be held and a thorough investigation made in an attempt to identify the remains.-Ru- by Record Citizen.

Half Victory

THE Republican landslide has swept SEN
i ator Penrose back into office. His in
dorsement is apparently more emphatic than
that given Doctor Brumbaugh. There are
excellent reasons for deploring this result.
The time seemed ripe for emphatic repudia-
tion of the methods and means of the PEN
rose political system, without sacrifice Of
the great Republican principles which have
been and should have been vindcated.
The great mass of Republicans, however,
felt that heroic treatment was necessary to
warn the Wilson Administration to quit
tinkering. The insensate interference with
business, the passage of the meaningless
but disturbful additional antitrust legisla-
ton the constant experimentation with pros
perity induced thousands of good to
subordinate the moral to the economic as
poets of the situation They believed that
Pennsylvania must speak her mind on pro-
lection and they doubted II the election of
Doctor Brumbaugh alone would be properly
interpreted by the nation.
The whisky Democrats openly knitted their
party ticket. This was anticipated, but 1t
was assumed that the revolt of Independent
Republicans would counteract this move
ment. 1t did not
The EVENING LEDGER has no sympathy

rose 1t is convinced that men of the Sulli-
van type in Illinois menace to Ameri-
can institutions.
The fight for good government has won a
signal victory in the election OF Doctor
Brumbaugh Just as significant a triumph
has been achieved in New York by the re-
markable triumph of Mr. Whitman. These
are the men who will bulk large in Repub-
lican councils hereafter, the prophets of a
new order.
The repudiation of Tammany will be fol-
lowed by similar repudiation OF the Organi-
zation in Philadelphia. The protagonists of
good government have reason to be dis
couraged. Already their loins are girded to
continue the fight and they have the great
victory of Doctor Brumbaugh to inspire

Memories of Zanzibar

F7ANzIBAR! The name stirs memories. 1t
II reminds some of us that we once knew
what Zanzibar is. For a moment or two we
are puzzled to decide whether 1t is a comic
opera or an island. Anyway, 1t does not
seem very important.
The other day a small boy exclaimed,
'sVVhats the use OF studying geography? It's
all going to be changed" But the enter
prfsing business man who sells abroad has
a different viewpoint. This is the very time
when he should study geography-geography

unnecessary litigation. In Massachusetts the
workmens compensation law has resulted in
the almost complete elimination Of personal
injury cases from the Courts, and therefore
in great saving Of expense to State and to
employers and employees.
The statute leaves employers and employees
nothing to quarrel about; there is no incen-
tive to attempt imposition and no opportunity
for quibbling. The operation of this law
favors cooperation and harmony; 1t helps
to humanize industry. Causes Of friction are
removed; advantages are found to be mutual
One Of the remarkable features of the work.
ing of the Massachusetts law lies in the great
percentage of claims that are settled by
agreement between applicants and insurers
before they have reached formally an arbi-
tration committee or the Industrial Accident
Board. This is because, in the handling of
oil cases, a man -to-man get-together spirit
has taken the place of the kind of litigation
which from beginning to end deepens per-
sonal and class enmity.
