WHY AMERICAN SYMPATHY
 IS WITH BRITAIN AND ALLIES

(Open letter to Lord Northcliffe, publisher
 of the London Times, by George Harvey,
 in the North American for March,
 Why, then, are we for you and your allies? For no other reason in the world except that you are continuing the great battle for government of for and by the people, which we began when at Lexington we fired the shot that was heard around the world-for the glorious cause which Frank lin and Jefferson and Madison wrote for, that Patrick Henry spoke for, that Wash ington and Jackson fought for, that Linccln died for, that Mckinley suffered for, that every American statesman worthy of the title now lives for.
 To our minds, then the real issue is not mere miEtarism; 1t IS the hjdeous conception of which mitarism is one of the many manifestations; it is despotism itself j;
 despotism which united our people orlgl nally in armed resistance and which Is no less hateful to us now than 1t was then.

DOWN AND OUT
Douglas Island News

The old Alaska rrospector who joined the stampedes to every new strike, but some how always located blank, Is still entitled to consideration Worn out by long trips across frozen tundra, exhausted by exer- tion, and sick from hunger and exposure, he should not be allowed to die for the want of the plain necessities of life.
 The discovery of gold in a new field means prosperity and a chance for wealth to many, and these who try and fail often put forth greater exertion than their more fortunate brothers Old time Ajaskans eSpe- cialv appreciate the services Of these men who fail, for some of those who try are the ones who find the new bonanzas always. And the kind hearts of the people of the North, who understand, go out to the old fellows who are down and out. An out come of this sympathy was the establish ment of the Sitka Pioneers Home, and from all we can learn this institution is serving noble purpose.
 However, some of the poor old boys away up in the Interior are now in need, and resent the sentence which would send them to Sitka for life They only wish to spend their fey remaining days amidst the scenes of their greatest endeavor, where they can look into faces that are familiar. A bill recently introduced in the Alaska legisla- ture asks that they be allowed the sum of $1250 per month. Its passage would give earnest to the oft-repeated claim of Alaska for Alaskans" The lawmakers will do we'll to eliminate the high salaried officers and look out fer the old boys who have but a few years 10 live

SUSETNA VALLEY MAY GET
 AGRICULTURAL STATION

Professor Georgeson, who for many years has been head of the agricultural depart ment for Alaska, is on his way to the west ward with view to sending the superin- tendent of the Kodiak farm over into the Matanuska and Susitna valleys to look over the situation with the view of establishing an experimental farm in one or the other of these sections, that is, if the railroad is built out from Seward" Mr. Georges0n qualities We do not intend to build of the line of the railroad, not when we have a whole empire to choose from"
 Mir Georgeson, himself hale and hearty and strong as iron, reports things boom ing" in his lire of work. There are now four experimental farms in operation In Alaska-the Sitka farm, established in 1898; the che at Rampant, in 1900; Ko- Giak and Fairbanks farms, in 1907 There have been other agricultural stations estab lished in years past, but they have beer abandoned for more suitable locations.

Re turning, she was dismayed to find the chicken gone and, looking out of the open door into the yard, was astonished to see the bird, which absent -mindedly had forgot ten it was dead, running wildly about, pre- Sumably very sick at the stomach, after the fashion of human beings coming to from an anaesthetc
 Again the courage of the nurse failed her She just couldn't kill that chicken again. The other poultry ran panic stricken away from their odd-looking sister, and Miss Hopkins, again capturing it, kept 1t in the warm kitchen until she had constructed a

 Charles Atherton says he never, never will part with that chicken while it lives, and he never never will be the means of its death. It is the wonder of the com munty.

REUNITED ARCTIC BROTHERHOOD
(Juneau Empire

(Juneau Emplre)
 The amalgamation of the two branches of the Arctic Brotherhood is an event of more than passing importance in Alaska. The Arctic Brotherhood has played a useful as well as pleasant part in this territory. It has been an aggressive and progressive Alaska order. While 1t cherishes Alaska's traditions it is more representative of the activities of today and the plans and hopes for tomorrow than anything else And it is an organization that is firmly planted in all sections of Alaska. It extends from Ketchi- kan around the coast to Nome, as we'll as up and down the Yukon river recognizing no boundary line or artificial division in the North.
 It is too good an organization, and its field too important, to permit 1t to go to pieces because of dissension, and fortunately, its membership recognized the fact before it was too late
 It is we'll that the troubles of the order were bridged over through recognition of the fact that its Northern character required that it be kept in the North. Alaska has

DRESSED CHICKEN IN FLANNEL

There is a chicken clucking around the Marysville, all logged up in nice flannel dress, says the Tacoma Ledger. If it is a bit cold, it isi manifesting it, although under the flannel garb, there are no feathers And this is a true story, too, as Miss Grace Hopkins, Chicago trained nurse, visiting her uncle and aunt, Mir and Mrs Atherton admitted yesterday.
 The Athertons went over to Everett to spend the day with Mrs Athertons sister, Mrs. Wallace and laughingIy told the Chi cago girl to kill and cook chicken, so as to have it ready when they returned at night. This was on Tuesday, Miss Hop kins declared she'd do it, although she never had handled q live chicken in her life, much less killed one
 Left alone at the ranch, she boldly in- vaded the hen yard and captured plump chicklet. She was not afraid to do this ping block, ax in one hand chick in the other, her courage failed.
 She just couldn't do it.
 Then she thought of how her relatives, returning from Everett, would laugh at her, and she hit on happy plan, calling into play her knowledge gained as a nurse
 Finding the family chloroform bottle, used for toothaches, etc.. Miss Hopkins pro- ceeded to administer an anaesthetic to the chicken, holding it with one hand and cover ing its head with chloroform- soaked cloth.
 When nicely "dead, the nurse proceeded to the job of plucking off the feathers-a task she accomplished with credit, consider ing she never had tried it before.
 Then she repaired to the pantry to get

The sympathies of the good people of Whtehorse are unanimously favorable to Constable Stangroom of the Northwest mounted police, who reached that place a few days ago in company with a companion who had bought his discharge and was then on his way to the battle front in Europe Stangroom also felt the call of patriotism so strongly that he made an attempt to desert from the Northwest mounted police but was caught at Carcross and taken back to Whitehorse, where he Is doubtless at present undergoing some kind of discipline although it IS not reasonable to suppose it will be of maximum severity -Skagway Alaskan March 13

passed beyond ephemeral dangers. The couptry is fact, and her people are an chored to her soil. They must work out their problems here. Their problems are not the "reminiscences of those who made half mad rush into the Klondike and then re- turned to the States. They are real, living matters of the present and future. They relate to questions of state, community and home-building up here. The place for a virile, active, Northern Arctic Brotherhood is on the ground amidst our pleasures and our griefs, where we are living and shall re- main.
 Juneau will take good deal of pride in the circumstance that the peace which sig nifes the end of Arctic Brotherhood troubles and which will mark the beginning of new epoch in the orders career was made at this place; and the accomplishment of the peace adds enthusiasm to the hospitality with which the community welcomes the repre- sentatives of the order from other sections of Alaska
