COMPLETE THE WORK

The request Of Valdez and Fairbanks newspapers that the people of Alaska back up the suggestion of Col Richardson that Congress be asked to appropriate enough money to complete the coast to Fairbanks au tomobne road should be granted. Col. Richardson estimates that slooo mile would be ample to make a fairly good automobile road of the long highway.
 While the road from the coast to Fairbanks has al- ready been Of nestimabe value the people of Che Interior t is not rendering them the service that t would if enough more could be expended on it to provide a good automobile road-one that would permit che re- dueton of two or three days the time necessary to make trip over It. reduce the discomfort of passen gers increase the carrying capacity of automobiles make 1t less destructive vehicles and less costly to an concerned The sum necessary to complete the road -Sss5 oOo-is comparatively small one when one con- siders that it's expenditures would add mmeasureabiy to the efficiency of the far greater that has been expended already
 The circumstance that the government already is constructing railroad to enter Fairbanks Is no arga nent against the completion of the automobile road. The latter traverses an entirely different section of the country and n made into a satisfactory road 1t would be great aid in building up and developing rich areas of Aasta.

 There should be no hestancy on the part of the Commercial Club in extending all possible help to Col onel Richardson in his endeavor to get sufficiently large appropriation the coming session of Congress to put the Valdez trail in better condition It is mat ter of great good that the chairman of the road commission has determined that the improvement is a necessary one that should be made at and every effort should be strained ,o take advantage of the fac yorable opportunity.
 Apparently it is from the road commission alone that assistance toward Che bettermen of the roads can come and as long this s the everything possi- ble should be support the request for bigger appropriations made by its chairman simple common sense dictates this course.
 It Is well known that because of personal animosity existing Colonel Richardson and the delegate do not work in unison at Washington. The consequence has been that for the past six eight years none but beg gery appropriations have been made
 Alaskas greatest need Is better roads and trails. and in no respect has been sadly neglected Col onel Richardson with justice argues that his is not the work of obtaining the appropriations but that of building the roads IT any real reason exists why the work should be entrusted to his hands there surely has been time to demonstrate the fact during che past eight years is noleraole that the greatest help to it's development should be denied Alaska because of a personal quarrel between two of It's servants

Notwithstanding the defeat of women suffrage m the conservative East the day coming when Ameri- can women In an parts of this country will have the righ, to participate in It's government There Is not State In the Union where women vote that regrets having bestowed the franchise upon them. There Is not
 State where women vote that 1t win not be admitted by Che great majority of men. to say nothing of the women. that conditions have been improved by the extension of he franchise all citizens regardless of sex
 The great benefit of woman suffrage is chat it Is an addition to the better clement of voters To great CT extent than is the case with men, women become attached to the soil They are more generally perma nent residents They are members of families and are part and parcel of the communities in which they lve They are interested In community welfare and It's per
 anent good By far the greater part of Che transient vote which has no real interest in community and which oo frequently can be controlled Is composed of men. As result where women vote the chances for cheating the people by political other machines are iessened
 Recognition of the improved political conditions where women vote s spreading and 1t already is finding acceptance as people consider the question However more important stn in probable effect is the fact that women want the right to vote and the American peo- pie win not for long refrain from giving the women vha, they desire.

Petrograd, via London, Aug. o.
The report that Germany had made
peace proposals to Russia became
known in official circles several days
ago, and was freely discussed in the
lobbies of the Duma, according to the
Vechernee Vremya.
Eve learn on good authority" says
the newspaper, that Germany through
Denmark proposed to Russia a sepa-

while Germany would retain the west

denied that there was the remotest
possibility Of any peace negotiations.
In the lobbies Of the Duma the pro-
posal was dismissed as unworthy Of
