A meeting of railway men is called

ments for the annual safety first pic

an interesting lecture on THE Task

his address the bishop pointed out
the mistake made by the churches in

TRAMP TRAVEL
THE TRAVELLING ARMY OF IN
EMPLOYED Is GREATER THIS
YEAR THAN EVER BEFORE.

Mitchell, Aug. 5.-For the past
three days enough of the army of the
unemployed have passed through
Mitchell TO recruit nearly four regi-
ments of infantry troops to war
strength. The total for the first
three days of August is over 500.
more than the total of $3.50, who
passed through the whole month of
July.
The heaviest influx of the harvest
hands was yesterday, when 1900
went through. On Sunday, the num-
Der was 1000 and today 1900 ar
rived in two trainloads. This fore
noon 1000 men departed north over
the Milwaukee road, the total for the
two days travel in Mitchell.
Fifteen hundred tramps were in
the city all night and not a complaint
or call over their presence was re-
ceived at the police station, indicating
that they were unusually well be-
haved and not looking for trouble.
Most of them were supplied with
money, as the restaurants on lower
Main street were crowded with them
as patrons. Thirty only were fed at
the city jail. The men remained in
box cars in the railroad yards during
the night and went out with 500 ar
rivals from the south early today.
According to all reports, the trav-
elers this year appear to be of a much
higher class than usual and are really
in search of work. A number of them
were sent west from here to work in
the harvest fields. More negroes
were in the crowds here today than
has been the case before. The color
ed men seemed to be law abiding.

LOOKING FOR TROUBLE

Did you ever across person who was always looking for trouble? If not must say that you are very fortunate. Or rather it may be that your faculty of observation is altogether undeveoped Be that it may, there is thing that we know, and that we meet such people quite frequently and they are a pest who need fulnigaton isolation or somthng.
 Some people are never satisfied until they have discovered somebody elses trouble Not that they haven't any trouble of their own, because invariably they have and plently but because they seem to feel better if they know other peoples trouble; and ther they go from place to place talking about it, and generally wind up with such expression as, "Now what do you think of that?"
 What difference it would make in this wort if we could only mind business insicad oe neddng. If we all alike, it would not make so much difference. Unfortunately are not, and some of us do to hear other peoples trouble; hence the annoyance to which are all exposed but can hardly avoid due to the persistence of these med dlers. If we could only make them understand that we have trouble of our own, it might help some. It is true that we should mngle, that should be of the rest of the world. but it is also true that we should be concerned with affairs, our own dignties interests and honor that the influence of our contact will he potential to good and the good of the rest generally.

JAPAN IN THE WAR
(Martin Marshall, in Leslies)


 In France there is strong demand that Japan be requested to send veteran troops to help the al lies. While this demand is by means universal it is growing in intensity Great Britain is silent on the subject Undoubtedly her government does not wish Japan to participate further in the war, except in a case of absolute necessity Japan has 500,000 highly trained troops which probably, for man. the equal of any soldiers in the world and these would be great help to the allies in their desperate struggle to drive the Germans out of France and Belgium. But if Japan lent this assistance which she is undoubtedly willing-and even eager-to do she would have a much more important voice in the peace council which must follow the and which may materially alter the political map of the world It is to Great Brtains interest that her Oriental ally shall grow too powerful
 The rumors that Russia would not be adverse to material assistance from the Japanese must he very disconcerting Great Britain The Manchurian rail way affords of moving vast Japanese armies into the eastern theater of the European and stranger things have happened than that the Russians and Japanese, who only few years ago were engaged in death struggle for supremacy the eastern coast of Asia should be found fighting side by side before the snows of winter melt away

A REASONABLE APPEAL

The appeal to the fishermen contained Tn the com muncation published in yesterdays issue of the Pro over the signature of the president of the Commercial Club has the ring of sincerity that should bring results.
 This mooted question deserves more consideration than we have given it thus far because it's success full solution depends to large degree the future or Ketchikan as it means prosperity for all of us. Not only for the present but the future we'll The building of large and prosperous city is in proportion to the volume of business that is transacted within it's limts and not otherwise; hence the importance that every effort should be made to bring business here.
 Most of us have thus far failed to understand the enormous amount of money that is spent by those boats fishing in our waters and if that amount was spent in our city it would the brnigng of large number of families, followed by prosperity and the building of a large city and beneftng us all. Thus we can see the importance that the wiser have attached to the question.
 There is another phase to the question that should not be overlooked and that is the equity side of it. To us it does not fair that American fishermen should take our fish and enrich foreign country with out giving us fair chance anymore than 1t would be fair for an employee of J. R. Heckman x Company to purchase his necessaries of life from the Tongass Trading Company with the money earned from the former.
 Concusvely, the fishing business from Alaska waters should come to Ketchikan and whatever is in the way should be removed. This be done by united action. Not only the part of the business men of the town but the fishermen should take 2 hand by suggestions otherwise
