THE POLITICAL
SITUATION

Following the change in our Mex
lean policy, the country has faced
the prospect of war for two years.
Our government had issued certain
statements of its intentions. The
Mexicans have paid no attention to
those statements. The United States
was placed in the position where 1t
must either back down from its
statements, or must use force
The trouble seemed to be Mr.. Will
sons lack of practical information on
the situation, and a too Jealous faith
in the Mexican character. He sent
to Mexico number of private agents
and observers, whose reports must
nave been governed by unsound pre-
conceptions. He was informed that
the so called Constitutionalist move
ment proposed to remedy certain
wrongs.
The program looked good on pa
per. But its promises were worth
less unless supported by men of alb
solute honesty. The moment the
Constitutionalists acquired power, In
stead of fulfilling their pledges, they
started a new war in order to grasp
each individually for themselves the
booty of office.
Thus the administration has assist
ed in overturning the only govern.
ment Mexico had, which maintained
a fair condition of order In the capt.
tai and central part of the country.
While opposing intervention, the adj
ministration has pursued the very
course most likely to lead to anar-
chy and Intervention.
The likelihood that the country
would be drawn into a costly war
of subjugation had very unfavora-
be effect on business. Commercial
enterprises are fearful Of war. The
thunder cloud over Mexico for two
years led many business men to cur
tain their plans and go slow, thus
adding to the increasing unemploy-
ment. When the complications with
Europe over neutral rights on the
sea started, attention was diverted
by the more imminent perils OF this
situation. nut Mexico Is lust as
much of a menace as 1t was two
years ago.
The United States has played
humiliating role, and the stars and
stripes command no respect in Next
co. The record OF Carranza, who is
now 10 be recognized, gives little
hope that he can maintain order or
that he will establish justice. After

rowdy line on the street corner
they serve their day and generation
The study of the future will not be
so much room lined with books
as the fields and shops and halls
where men and women work and
play
Yet a minister must never stor
thinking. His must be an original
ing, initiating mind. The routine
worker takes to books because 1t is
easier to borrow ideas than to ere
ate them. But the minister's own
parishioners have ideas, and very
practical ones too. Borrow few
of these!

DAN CALLAHAN AND HIS DOG

And the heart of the Big Chief mourns as he lays to rest the remains of he who has been his friend and the compenon of his lonely hours, for he realizes that he will never. never more see his friend until he himself goes to those happy hunting grounds from which there is no return

GUN CLUB MEMBERS
 MAKING HIGHER SCORES

The Sunday afternoon shoots of the Idlt- arod Gun Club are growing in popularity and the members are showing much i'm provement in craftsmanship. Harry Wat son at present holds the high score record - 23 out of possible 25- but there are other members of the club who are developing skill with the scatter-gun. The following were the scores made last Sunday after noon, at ? singles:
 C. C. Hurst. 22 Ramps Peterson, 2l ; Claude Baker. l6; Dick Button 19; H. A. Weir, l6; R. M Hall ' Mir. Halls score is considered to be good one because of the fact that it was his first handling of a shotgun.
 The club has recently received big con- signment of blue rocks and ammunition, and is prepared to carry on the sport all through the fall and winter months.

CYRIL WOOD AND FAMILY
 TO LEAVE FOR OUTSIDE

Cyril P. Wood, Iditarod manager for the Northern Commercial Company, is a busy man these days, preparing for his approach ;ng trip to the Outside, and getting affairs in shape for the winter business before his departure Mr Wood, with his wife and little ones, Cyril Jr and Miss Mary will be passengers on the up-river boat leaving on September 7, and will go direct to Seattle. They will remain but a few days at that city and then proceed to San Francisco to take in the exposition. Mir. Wood will return to Iditarod early in March over the trail, but Mrs Wood and the children will not return until after the opening of navigation next summer.
 Mir Wood, who is a true Northerner, having come to the country when he was but 16 years of age, has not been Outside for some years, and in fact his visits to the States have been few and far between. He has been in Iditarod as manager for the N. c. Co., for more than four years, and feels that he Is entitled to take holiday. lie has always been active in public affairs in Iditarcd. taking keen interest in the welfare of the city and district, and his presence will be sadly missed when public activities are undertaken during the coming winter.
 The many friends of Mr. and Mrs. Wood will wish them a pleasant holiday and d safe return

BOERS TO FIGHT IN FRANCE

In the war atmosphere of England, L. P. Jacks, an instructor at Oxford university complains that he has lost his perspective in his teaching functions; that philosophy and science and literature sag in importance be- fore the brutal and insistent facts of exist ence; that idealsm IS farther away from human conception than ever.
 'I have taken a keen interest in explain ing to students the intricacies of Rants phi loscphy," writes the professor T confess that l can take no interest in such things at the present moment. A sense that 1 am 6Gdling while the world Is on fire comes over me In the presence of the war issues 1t seems to me hardly worth debating whether Kant was right or wrong
 Underneath the artificial superstructure of civilization that the world has bullded so laboriously are the real and elemental issues of existence We must possess and protect life before we may acquire and main tain the flower of civilization. Of what use is a head full of knowledge without life to give it effect?
 "PerhaDs," writes the professor, Eve have been taking ourselves little too seriously. Perhaps our interests were not quite as i'm portant as we thought them to be. 1 be leve that hereafter we shall try to bring our academic life into closer touch with real ity"
 In other words, the professors head has come down from the clouds.
 No doubt one is inclined to get out of sight of land in exploring the ideal. It has been found by the professor to be reason able and practical thing, in all walks of life to keep ones feet in touch with the earth We have builded system of living in which men become highly specialized; they grow into the habit of traversing little circle of knowledge One comes to rely upon the support of the material world about him as a matter of course, and when this support is taken from under his feet the winged one is helpless and the feet of clay stumble.
 The cataclysms of war bring men back to the elemental facts of life. Of what use gre our theories and our fnely-spun con centons in the presence of brute with a club?
 There is no doubt that the professor, in company with many other specialists, will contrve for the remainder of his life to keeD at least a hand-hold on the material world while continuing his exrloitations in the realms of the ideal.-Seattle Post-lntelll- gencer.

IS HE CRAZY OR
 IS HE A FAKER?!

John Schneider who says his real name is Jesuetz or something equally unpro- nounceabe, was arrested by Deputy Mar shal w. B. Thomas on Tuesday night last and lodged in the federal jail on suspicion of being of unsound mind. For several days he had been in the city and had told many different stories about having been robbed of various amounts varying from Sl25 to S2,300 He had made various pleas of pow erty to kindly disposed persons for the pur- pose of securing meals without payment, and apparently had made of himself gen eral nuisance.
 After being in jail several days he con ceived the notion that he wanted to get out and go to work cutting wood, Being told that it would be impossible for him to get an outfit without money, he informed Char lev Maltby, the jailer, that he had plenty of money cached, and seemed so confident in his statements that Deputy Thomas and Mr. Marshal accompanied him on Friday morning in search of his treasure. At a point near the old slaughter house, near the town of Flat, the supposed insane man stepped from the beaten path and after a walk of a few minutes he began turning up the moss, and there he uncovered tobacco sack containing about ten ounces of gold dust and a considerable sum in currency.
 Having verified his story so far, Deputy Thomas became impressed with the poss- bility that there might be some truth in the mans story of having been robbed. lie accompanied Schneider to place above the town of Flat where he said he had had a large sum of money cached, describing the place to Thomas before their arrival there, and also can in which the money had been hidden. The description tallied ex 2ct!v with what the scarchers found at the place designated.
 Schneiders story is that he recently dug up the money which he had hidden at the last-named place and came to ldltarod un the night of August 24 he and man named Dan Sutherland occupied vacant cabin, and in the morning when he aWoke his money was gone. He tcld MT. Thomas that the amount was S2, 300.
 On the strength of the more recent de vel0pments in the case, Sutherland was ar rested yesterday on an open charge and placed in the federal jail, Close questioning failed to incriminate the man, and he denies absolutely that he is guilty of the crime.
 Schneiders actions since his arrival in the city tend to discredit his statements as to the robbery, though he tells an apparently straight story on that point. It IS known hat he worked on the sympathles of tie Iditarod people in numerous instances in ,r- Ter to receive aims, while at the same time he is said to have had check on deposit with a local business man for the sum of 3125, besides the cache of gold dust and currency If he really did have the larger sum which he claims to have gotten from his cache above Flat City, apparently it is not in his possession. He may have again cached it CT his story of robbery may be true.
 The case is most peculiar one, and the local officials seem to be puzzled.

INDUSTRIAL UNREST
 IS ACCOUNTED FOR

CHICAGO, Aug. Chairman Walsh of the industrial relations committee an nounced today that the commissions find ings will show that the workers of the na- ton are being denied the full product of their toll through compulsory or oppressive methods legal and illegal.
 Summaries of three reports of the com mission, which ceases to exist today, have been made public, The reports give as the causes of industrial unrest the breakdown of labor laws, disrrust of muni- cipal, state and national government in part the fact that with large portion of the people there is an exaltation of money above men, and an unjust distribution of wealth and income. Unemployment, the denial of opportunities to earn a living and of the rights of effective organization are also given as among the causes

MINING ACTIVITY ON
 ADJACENT CREEKS

A mining deal of considerable importance to the district has been consummated re gently by which Ray Longton, Gllhe Bates and Frank Dawson will commence opera tions on an extensive scale on No. l bench claim, Otter creek. This is said to be the initial step in movement which contem- plates the extensive development of the benches of that famous stream, Practically all of the smaller concerns operating the creek claims will clean up this fall, leaving the dredge of Riley x Marston as the only work of any consequence. The attention ol operators now seems to have been turned to the bench claims some ot which are said to contain excellent pay, and It Will not he surprising if next season should witness the development of these bench clalms on an extensive scale.
 Longtcn, Bates and Dawson already have commenced work, and considerable ground has been stripped It is probable that if the weather continues propltlous they Will be enabled to do considerable sluicing this fall
 Those who have been inclined to take pessimistic view of the mining situation Tn this camp recently are probably due to re ceive some surprises in the near future The present activity on Willow creek; where Jonas Brewis has recently commenced oper- ations on lay secured from the Loranger brothers, and where Frank Manley is oper- ating with his new drag line scraDer, pres ages further developments on that creek The results of the work of these men will be watched eagerly and there is little doubt that their success will encourage further development in that reg ion.
 af lo ba croal-S adIOIn- ing Flat and Otter appear to have had an ceIIent season, and there IS little doubt that the output of the district this year will fall but slightly, if any below that of last year.
 The Candle creek district, which is prac tica,ly adjacent to Iditarod, no doubt will received considerable attention during the coming winter, and there will be much prospecting in the kuskokwim region, from the present outlook.

FATHER OF JONAS NOELET
 IS VISITOR TO DISTRICT

The father of Jonas Noelct, the young French Canadian who met tragic death Tn this district early last spring was an ar rival in the city this week. He comes to settle up his sons estate.
 Mir Noelet had an interesting experience with the Canadian authorities in crossing the line between Alaska and the Canadian Nukon It is said that strict inquiry Is made of each person crossing into Canadian terri tory concerning his destination and ante cedentS. In order to verify Mir Noelat $ description of himself as Canadian, he was asked many questions about his home in Eastern Canada, among them being as to the number of his children. When told that he was the father of twelve boys the Canadian officials asked no further questions and allowed the traveller to proceed on his tourney

The difficulties of the fuel problem are emphasized by the fact that these men will cut wood at a distance approXi- matcly one hundred miles up the river from the power plant.

ALEX CORNWALL BEING
 BROUGHT BACK TO IDITAROD

Alex Cornwall, the well known prospector, who left here some two weeks ago for the Outside for medical treatment, in charge of Mrs. Jacobsgaard as nurse, is on his way back to this city, according to wireless message received by Tom McMahon,. the Flat City business man. last Tuesday The message is from Mrs Jacobsgaard and is dated at Nulato and states that the physi elan at Tanana ordered MT. Cornwall back to Iditarod
 There is a great deal of speculation as to the meaning of the message. It is not known what authority anyone had to 'order" the return of the patient, and as nothing can be done for his relief here it was thought to be the better plan to send him to a good hospital Outside. Mrs. Nellie Gilmore who has taken great interest in the case of the old prospector, probably will go down to Dikeman today to meet the patient.
