EVASION AND MOCKERY
lNeW York WOrldl

The German note in response to the American protest against submarine attacks upon merchantmen does not meet the issue. It is worse than evasve. It IS insncere even pettifogging Regret will be felt every where in the United States that the affairs of a great people believed to be friendly have fallen into the hands of men capable of such desperate trItiing.
 What Germany did to the American ships Gulflight and Gushing is now subject to investigation" Yet it was exactly in keep ing with the lawIess threat of the German admiralty of February 4.
 What Germany now proposes in regard to future outrages ''in which it may be in the wrong" IS arbitration and compensation Yet while the preparation of this note was in progress another American ship, the Ne braskan, appears to have been wantonIy tor pedoed.
 We now have disavowals of purpose to attack neutral merchantmen. Yet on the same day that they were made a second warning was issued from the German for clgn office that such ships are in constant peril
 We have a defense of the Lusitania mas sacre on the ground that the great Cunarder was in fact warship, and of the Falaba murder on the assertion that her captain made an effort to escape"
 The Lusitania was warship in the same way that Belgium was an aggressor against Germany; in the same way that the Unlver- city of Louvain and the Rheims cathedral were "fortihcations' in the same way that various seaside resorts in England, raided by Germans, were "defended."
 Of the fact that the Lust2nia was un- armed we have proof in the testimony of Collector Malone Of the falslty of the charge that she carried munitions of war contrary to law, national or international, we have evidence in judicial and depart mental rulings For the absurd accusation that we permitted her to embark Canadian troops en route to the front there can be no Justification in a neutrality that has been of the strctest order
 Berlin does not answer the Presidents 5 question It ignores the appeal for redress
 It takes no account of the 'immeasurable wrongs" against which he complains. On the contrary, having set international law and solemn treaties aside and taken refuge behind falsehood and suDterluge It pro poses delay and discussion on our part. while reserving to itself the right to 'Black Hand our people and our goods.
 If Germany does not understand the gray itv of the situation in this country, we are confronted by another painful demonstra- ton of the utter failure of its diplomacy If it does understand and is intent upon a rupture, is its object the welfare of the fatherland, or at all hazards, is it seeking sympathy and support at home for the Hohem2cllcrn dynasty?
 Ir erhar case, the issue, so far as the United States is concerned, wss defined once anG for all by President Wilson when he said: "The imperial German government will not expect the government of the United States to omit any word or act ne"es- sary to the performance of it's sacred duty

BUSINESS ON YUKON RIVER
 IS FLOURLSHiNG THIS YEAR
LMhitnhnrse Starl

Thp steamer Selk.rk, the last of the Brit sh Yukon Navigation fleet to leave on the maiden voyage of the season, got away Tues day night with a good crowd of passengers, who were destined for Dawson and points on the lower river. All the preceding steam CTS, including the American bottoms Yukon, Washburn and Alaska, went out we'll loaded with passengers, and the outlook fer heavy travel all this month and most of next is very encouraging.
 The new American steamers Yukon and Alaska. carried more passengers out of Whitehorse this spring Cn their initial trips than they ever carried before, and with what they picked up at Dawson, both crossed the boundary line fully loaded. The upper river steamers, Casca, Whitehorse, Dawson and Selirk, as well as those of the lower river are all in frst-class condition this season. and those who travel by this route will be well cared for in every respect
 Outsiders who desire to travel this year and who do not care to visit blood od-bespat- tered Europe, cannot pick out a finer or more enjoyable outing trip on the North American con1inent than that to Yukon and Interior Alaska.

FORMER ID!TAROD. MAN
 THINKS WELL OF TOLOYANA

] Mushing in from the Tolovana district, Duncan Michie, the well known mining man, reached Fairbanks yesterday morning, says the Times of June 21. This is his first visit to Fairbanks in two years When coming down from the upper Yukon he disembarked at Rampart and went into the new camp by way of Mike Hess creek.
 Together with Dan McCarthy he has some interests in the Tolovana, and is well pleased with them. He has made an exhaustive study of practically all the properties in the Toovana, and as a mining man of eXper- ence he gives the opinion that it will de velop into a good camp. Enough pay has been uncovered to satisfy him that there is V good paystreak there and it is only mat ter of lining 1t up.
 He brings no new reports of importance of any transactions or happenings for the past two or three weeks.

BOYLE'S YUKON CONTINGENT
 DEPLETED BY DESERTLONS
Dawson News. June 1Sj

Advices have been received by Commis Soner Black that the Boyle Yukon contin- gent left Canada for Europe, and that no doubt the boys are now landed in England, where they will receive their last training before going into action. The announce ment of the date of the boys departure from Vancouver and from Eastern Canada was not made public at the time they left these points, because of the fact that the government strictly forbids the announce ment of movement of the troops at the time of their departure. The reason is obvious, Now that they have accomplished their jour ney, the Yukoners will be expecting news from them before long from the front
 When the boys left Vancouver a message was prepared there and offered to the tele- graph office for the Dawson News, saying that they were going East, but 1t was re fused transmission then by the censors. Now that the boys have made the tourney no harm can come from it's publication. It was prepared by an old Yukoner who has had military training, and who has been in touch with the boys and says:
 "Bovles battery, with 1000 Canadian Mounted Rifles, entraned this morning at 9 o'clock for Sewell, Manitoba, where they will be brigaded with the First Canadian Mounted Rifles, under Colonel Sissons, and proceed to Montreal. Nineteen original Iu- koners deserted or were discharged, but they are now recruited up to strength-52. A great ovation was given the boys at Vic toria and Vancouver. The horses proceeded last week with Boutin, Peterson and Farrler Work"
 Recent arrivals who had been with the force say twelve secured discharges by put ting in affidavits, and that six of the num- Der enlisted with other companies which they thought would get to the front sooner, and six others did not enlist with any other service, which leaves seven more of the nine teen for whom no explanation is made

AMERICAN COWBOYS
 INVADE STATE OF SONORA

NOGALES, Ariz, June 6.-Ten American cowboys rode across the line and into Santa Cruz, in the state of Sonora, and held up the commander of the fort compelling him to release two American boys who were kid mapped recently. The Mexican garrison of the place consists of 150 soldiers, who were also held up by the Americans. The raiding cowboys, after their escapade, returned to United States territory without molestation and with the rescued boys accompanying them.

AN ERRONEOUS IDEA
(Petersburg Reportl

Alaska legislators appear to find difficulty in getting away from the notion that they are delegated with power to legislate for the past as we'll as the future. The revenue law enacted at the late session was approved April 29, and it provides that licenses and taxes are to be collected for the calendar year beginning January 1, 1915. The meas uer also imposes duties upon the United States marshals and deputies, with penalty for neglect in performance thereof While such clumsy work may pinch through, it would seem to leave some fine opportunities for legal "pickings."

WoRkMEN's COMPENSATION ACT;

There are many jokers in the law, and they all work to the advantage of the cor porations. Speculations are abroad as to whether or not the companies are going to comply with the law, and also whether or not the workers are going to be satisfied with the measure There will be another session of the legislature two years from now, and we will see then what the workers think about the act.
