Final receipt has been issued by the United States land office at Juneau to Otto Bergstrom for 320 acres of land near Mile on the line of the Alaska Northern railway. Bergstrom first settled on the land in the month of April, 1904 and after eleven years of residence and cultivation secures final certificate.
 This is believed to be the first final certificate issued since the government made it's own surveys of the various homestead tracts in and about Seward and in the Matanuska valley.
 Since 1910 Senator Ray has repre- sented Bergstrom; in 1913 the Com mercial Club and Rev. MT. Pedersen shortly after Bergstrom nearly lost his life by an attack made upon him by a "conservation" brown bear, sent photographs and made a special appeal to Secretary Lane on behalf of MT. Bergstrom, but nothing could be done until the office work connected with the government survey of 1910 could be completed. The late General Distin, as surveyor general of the territory, took an active part in an effort to hurry along the delayed surveys and the approved surveys were being for warded to him on the ill-fated State of California This cessitat- ed the duplication of the work and resulted in further delay. Receiver Boyle and Register Walker of the land office, MT. Ray states, have done all in their power to facilitate matters in their office relative to Mr. Bergstrom's application and entry.

City Official Paper
NOME, ALASKA, NOV. 22, 1915.

What is probably the most sensible suggestion so far forthcoming in con- nection with the present defense agi- tation is that of Secretary Wingtield Jones of the National Defense League that the South and Central American republics engage themselves to share with the United States the defense of the principles of the Monroe Doctrine.
 While the idea which was offered by Jones at the conference of the Ma tional Defense League at Washington in early October is not exactly new one in that the suggestion in varying forms has been offered at intervals every since the Monroe Doctrine was promulgated, it is only just becoming recognized that it is one of the strong est defensive measures that could pos sibly be devised for both the North and South American states.
 Stronger than the strongest arma- ment that could be piled up for the defense of the famous pronouncement known as the Monroe Doctrine would be an alliance of all of the various states which come directly under it's protective influence.
 A treaty uniting all of the Pan-Am- erican powers for the one purpose of maintaining the principles promul- gated by President Monroe would, if off, ciU m defensive alliance of great strength and power and would also bring about the political and military solidarity of the entire Western hemisphere.
 While the Monroe Doctrine forbids any European power from acquiring territory in Western hemisphere, or from interfering with the affairs of any of the independent states thereof, at the same time it throws no responsibility for it's maintenance on any of the states other than the United States. Also it takes no account of the chang ed world conditions of today caused by the European war, in that it offers no provision for naval or military assist tance from any of the Pan-American republics in the event that the United States should be forced into war in order to protect one or more of them. It is thus more of a menace than ben eft to the United States.
 Any one of the South or Central American states can at any time bring the United States into difficulties through an attempt of one of more of the European powers to obtain a food hold through forcible entry, under the United States Is in duty bound to undertake measures to insure It's in- tegrity. In the majority of cases this would mean nothing less than war for the reason that any nation making such an attempt in the face of the Monroe doctrine would be prepared to go to any length to obtain the de- sired object. The nation from which D contingency arose need not strike a blow in it's own defense and the situation would still be the same--the United States would have to bear the affect of whatever might result alone and unassisted.
 A possibility of this nature cannot be viewed as other than alarming, as situation wherein the United States might have to oppose half or all of the armed strength of Europe Is by no means improbable.
 The only possibility of adequately | guarding against an eventuality of this character, in the opinion of Jones. is
The Nome daily nugget., 1915-11-22

to form an alliance of all of the in- dependant states of North and South America under new doctrine to be known as the Pan-A American doctrine and which would practically supercade the Monroe Doctrine.
 Among the many powerful argu- ments offered by Jones in support of the proposed measure is this:
 If the United States should be forced in the future to pour out blood and treasure in maintaining the Monroe Doctrine, it would be equitable that all American countries engage to assist the United States with their full naval and military strength as the interest of one Is the interest of all in maintaining the political integrity of a single one of these republics. The new Pan-American doctrine would not only expand the Monroe Doctrine far beyond it's original meaning but would also supersede 1t for something far better and stronger
 Not only would an alliance of the 1 NortT and South American states for 1 ever assure the independence and in- tegrity of all the Pan American coun-
 tries from foreign aggression but 1t
 would also assure permanent peace
 among these countries themselves, ], which has not always been the case, and between them and the United States. Every Pan American power, no matter how weak, would then have behind it's national existence the com bined power of the United States and all it's neighbors.'
 Mir. Jones asserts that an alliance
 of this nature is eminently desirable
 to the United States, especially at the
 present time when we are in mis-
 erably weak state and will be in no
 position to defend ourselves for sev- eral years, because it would at one stroke practically double the military
 strength of the nation. "The com bined naval and military power of the
 countries of the Western hemisphere
 says he," is strong enough to win in a
 war against any possible coilition of
 the other powers of the world. As al-
 lies of the United States and of them
 selves, the South and Central Amer
 ican countries could bring in I war for the defense of any country of the western hemisphere nearly one hundred warships. and twenty eight thousand seamen and a military strength of more than seven million men when all of service age were under arms. With such allies, wealth and resources, its one hundred million population and it's present and potential military and naval strength could emerge victorious in any war against any combination of powers. The 1 United States is not the arbiter of it's own destiny We have no friends aeighbors in Pan America, who have as we have a vital interest in main- taining the republican institutions and the freedom of the Western world.' Therefore We should by all means negotiate treaties providing for these alliances as speedily as possible and it would be desirable that 1t should be before the end of the European war"
