In a Procession 1t Strings Out
Triyt Miles on a Single
Road.

BERLIN Aug. IA writer in the
Neuse Gesells chaftliche correspondon-
denzt has been trying to visualize TO
the casual reader the dimensdQps OF
troops as they march and fight a
German army Corps, he says, CONSISTS
OF Al, 900 men, $4,000 horses, ano
2, 400 vehicles, Including tiae cannon
Such q body Of men and tneir De.
Rongings make procession about
thirty miles long on q single ROAD.
Even when in pretty close touch with
the enemy. the length Of a corps IL
about fifteen miles; and when the
front detachments become involved 10
10 battle It will be i've or six hours
before the men in the rear go into
action to assist them.
Before this war began 1t was gen
orally assumed that a single corps
would occpy about two and one-hala
to three miles OF the lighting nne,
but in actual experience 1t has been
found that the average front Of 9
corps is considerably broader, nancy
three and one-half to Ave miles. An
army of ten corps is not very large
as armies go In this war; but even
such an army would fight on a front
of some thirty-seven miles, and the
man who undertook to walk from one
wing to the other would require
twelve to fourteen hours IN DONG II.
The shipment of an army corps by
rail is NO small undertaking. The
troops alone require sixty-seyeu
trains. while the artillery, commits
sary and other belongings call foI
forty-one trains-a total of about 11o
trains.
The feeding Of corps appears tc
be big problem when the matter
is worked out upon the basis of tns
daily consumption of each man. and
each horse The daily average ra'
ton of soldier in the German arm.
weighs about 3.6 pounds. while
horse get his thirteen pounds OF oats
and the large draught horses con,
siderable more. These figures worl
out at about $1,000 pounds OF food
for the men and about $4,000 pounds
for the horses, as minimum. There
is thus nearly 100000 pounds OF pro.
visions to be moved forward every
day, not 10 mention ammunition
Under the most favorable conditions
therefore, 1t calls for train of 49,
wagons to bring UP the food for each
day.

PROTECTION NEEDED.
Fairbanks Times.)

(Fairbanks Tmes)
 There is a growing feeling of insecurity among Fair bansans and residents of the nearby creeks The com mission of two crimes extraordinary character dur ing the past months proves conclusvely that we have among us men whose liberty is a menace 10 the camp and we cannot hope for security against addi- tional crimes of similar until the guilty parties are apprehended and punished they justly deserve
 The occurrences referred to point strongly to the need of trained part of our federal equipment Without them hunting criminals is tedious laborious task which usually ends in failure. The men upon this work falls in Alaska do the best they know how and on more than one occasion have made credible showngs But they not experts In hunting crmin- as and we should criticise they when they fall to runrayel mysteries which call for expert knowledge The fault is with the system which requires of political appontees work that should be done by special officers of long experience.
 Readers of the Times have on various occasions in the past been reminded of the need of better policing of the Territory The attention of the Department of Justice has directed repeatedly to our lack of pro- lection but the desired relief has been denied with the result that crime is the increase throughout the Terrory-crme of the sort that is most difficult of de- tection.
 Continued nattenton on the part of the government will result eventually in the organization of viigence committees It will become necessary for the people to take steps sort to rid the country of undesr ables and make examples of those who may be found gulty of wrongdoing We do not advocate such step. We much prefer that the law should be permitted to what assistance it can. But there is end to pa- tience. The of the camp must be protected and if the government will not do 1t by supplying the var ous districts with trained officers and other of detecting criminals Aaskans will be compelled to act in sefprotection.

THE FIRST PERIscoPE."

Rear Admiral IT. osefridge tells in the current is- sue of The Navy Of the first use in of the pers eope~ the device so often mentioned in connection with the German submarine campaign. It was on the monitor Osage when he commanded her in the Red River expedition during the civil
 The Osage's periscope piece of three-inch steam pipe with holes cut the ends on opposite sides. with pieces of looking glass fastened in them Thus view of the surroundings could be obtained be- hind the shelter of the turret On the top of the tur- ret sights were fixed parallel to the axis of the guns
 This perscope was effectively used when the Os- age went aground during the retreat of the expedition She was attacked by about 5000 firing by columns of regiments over an intervening high bank From the deck of the monitor they couldn't be seen. With the periscope they were located they came up to fire Says Admiral Selfridge:
 ~our fire was withheld until the heads of the enemy appeared when with shrapne-uses cut to one second and one-hal secoud-both guns fired with great execution This singular fight kept up for an hour before the conederaes gave up the idea of capturing the Osage"
 Admiral selfridge gives full credit for suggesting the device to Chief Engineer Thomas Doughty of the Osage It is of course simply application of the camera lucida" used long before by map makers and landscape painters to get accurate sketch of cOun- tryside.
 Until evidence of an earlier in war is produced the first use then of what termed "the eye of the submarine must be claimed for the Americans Thomas Doughty and Thomas O. selfridge.

NOT A FROZEN NORTH.

Dubuque Qowa) Journal)
 To people with hay ideas about tne china1e ol Alaska dispatch from Juneau, telling about 1empe.- ature of 100 degrees there will come as something of shock
 In spite of much better understanding of the country there are many people who still have tne iaee that Alaska is frozen wilderness As matter or fact though Alaska has sometimes been referred to as an Arctic province, nearly threefourhs or itS area lies within the north temperate zone The climate or the coastal province comparable with that or scotland and the Scandinavian pennsular of Europe except naI is somewhat warmer In the great inland region ln- cudng the valleys of the Yukon and the Tanana south of the Endlcott range of mountains the climate is sm- lar to that of the Canadian provinces of Alberta Sas atchewean and Manitoba. The northerly province DOT derng the Polar Sea is the only one in which Arctic conditions prevail
 In Southeastern Alaska-the panhandle-the lowest temperature ever recorded was only degrees below zero while the temperatures of the three summer months vary from about 90 degrees to about 00 degrees The three winter months show mean temperatures De- tween 20 degrees 30 degrees above zero Prior to this summer the highest recorded temperature s2 de- grees in this province; this summer breaks all records with temperature of 100 degrees Fahrenheit.
 In the coast region stretching from Katala to Sew ard the temperatures are much the for South eastern Alaska the lowest recorded in this region being4 degrees F. and tho highest S2 degrees F The Aleutian islands and the Alaska pennsular have ci- mate of moderate and limited rate of temperature.
 Tn the interior at Fairbanks on the Tanana- the northern terminus of the new government railroad the mean temperature for the three months is about 56 degrees the for the three winter months about-12 degrees F.
 Along the shores of Boring Sea the mean sumner temperature varies from 40 degrees to DO degrees and the mean annual temperature from 25 degrees to 40 do grees. The extremes recorded at Nome are about 60 degrees in January The arctic province is colder of course.
 The experience of old residents of Alaska has shown the climate to be very heahful No extremes of cold or heat occur along the Pacific seaboard The excess i've rains many parts Of the coast are somewhat dis agreeable but have effect health The Cook ln- let and Sustna regions have climate similar to that of the interior and warmer summers those the coast with less rain On the Yukon the summers are cool and bright, clear weather prevails most of the time The lack humidity in the interior makes the extreme temperatures of winter easy to resist The win ter tourney between Fairbanks and Valdez is made by men, women and children, and offers no serious hard ships except when storms are encountered. The sum- mer climate of Nome is delightful.

There Is no one in the United States who Is striV ing harder Go keep the country at peace than Presi dent Wilson There is no one who knows this better than his late Secretary of State There is no one who is backing him up with greater persistence or more sympathy than Mir Bryan. There Is none who realize more clearly than Mr. Bryan that President Wilson's position on the problem of the freedom of the seas and tho war munitions question is sound In law right ID principle and correct In morals
 Mr. Bryans position and attitude toward tho ad- ministraton are being misrepresented by about i've classes: CD The professional Bryan haters; (g pro- fessonal jngoes who seek otcal preferment through war scares and war talk; (s) those who would have war regardless of the cost for the glory 1t would bring. fO those who want war or a perpetual war scare for the profit that strenuous preparation for war would yield C5l those who would use the Bryan popularity and the Bryan following as aids in campaign to force the United States to abandon her neutrality and help one side in the European war.
 The most dangerous of all these classes and the element that is making matters most hard for President Wilson are those of the latter class and particularly those Of this class who are attacking the adminstra ton because 1t does not proceed stop the shipment of war munitions by American citizens to Europe and who would be willing sacrifice the freedom of the seas and American lives rather than to interfere in the remotest degree with the submarine warfare on com meree.
 This class is most dangerous because. inspired by greater love for foreign country than for the United States and appealing to racial prejudice it is making
 bitter unjustitabIe and cowardy attack on the Pres dent of the United States for refusing to depart from strict neutrality for refusing to commit the country to policy of unlawful interference with the foreign commerce of it's citizens and for refusing to abandon his contention for freedom of the seas in accordance with the principles of international law and American tra- ditions The danger is that this unpatrotic. if not raitorous class of citizens win the righteous in dignation of patriotic Americans and cause them to forget the cost of war in desire vndcate the prin ciDles of right. fair play and common justice, and to establish once again the fact that the United States of America Is an American Nation, founded by free Amer cans for free Americans and not foostooi for Euro pean absolutsm and mitarsm. The sinstesr jibes of prejudiced sectonasm and professional oadiers the prattie of ambitious petty politicians, the vainglorious boastng of svashbucing seekers for military fame and the seey eroakngs of craving greed are harmless be- cause we have listened to their dscOrdant grating until
 they but bore honest sentiment but let American patriot ism be stirred let Americans believe for moment that our land needs to be freed from traitors. or that the world must be shown that twentethcentury Amer iea is the legitimate heir of the Spirit of re- and there will be no power under heaven that prevent war.
