CANADA AT SAN FRANCISCO

It is the commonly expressed cYiuton of visitors to the Panama Pacific international exposition at San Francisco that the display made uy the Dominion of Canada in all .mes is equal to that of any coun- .rv other than the United States. 10 doubt the costly undertaking in whic1 Canada engaged to insure rep gssertatiou at this great fair was prompted largely by neighborly sen lsmeut. This is fully appreciated Gy American visitors, but @ major ity of them, judging rom accounts published, are unable to see, ill justice to itself, how Canada could have done less. No such exhibit could be made by Canada if the country were lacking in the energy enterprise and culture behind it; having these qualities so bOunti- fully it would have been q grave error ut this time had 1t for any reason failed to make them known through this legitimate vehicle.
 The times may not be so pro p.tious for Canada IS they might be, and the immediate returns on ;he investment may not be what they would be if the times were better in the United States or in the world at large, but the impreS- sion left by the Canadian eXhibi- lion at san Francisco will be last ing. Not only this year, but next year, and for many years to come, il We judge by what We read and near, Canada will receive in pro 'ortiou 10 it's giving.
 Nothing said here should lessen, nor s; there any intention to les s-u, the meighbOrly obligation in vo'vcd in Cauada's contribution to the success of an enterprise to which the i3dOrsemenc Of the Uni q States has been given. There $ Go weakness in confession of the fact that sentiment cuts a con sijera5Ie figure in the relations be- tween two peoples that have dwelt side by side in amity and with grow iHS mutual regard for more than a century. AT all events, in a ?. .icd OF great stress on its own s.ig ui the line, Canada found ,tmc to think of is friend on the uj.er side, and to offer generous evidence oS its thouShttuluess. Its exhibit at San Francisco is a splen- lid testimonial of self denying friendship, and it is needless to say that it will be remembered in the United States long 4after the beautiful vision by the Golden Gate shall have vanished.

To have the pains and aches of a bad back removed-to be entirely free from annoying, dangerous UT iLary disorders, is to make any kidney sufferer grateful. The fol lowing advice of one who has sui fered will prove comforting words to hundreds of Alaskan readers.

if it were to be approached with prolfers of cash for transfer Of the peninsula known as Lower California" To be sure the terms Of Mexico's present constitu- ton would make such cession an get of treason; but that might not deter an administration firmly seat ed in power from providing other features if the affair were satis- factory.
 The desire for the change of tile has diverse origins, some of which are likely to remain con start. For military reasons it would seem to be well if both the peninsula and the waters of the gulf of California could be con- trolled from Washington. For eco homie reasons the outlet of the Colorado river and sites for pro lection of the 75O,0O0 acres of rillable land ill the Imperial valley should be under United States rule. Large construction enterprises in the form of dams and barriers against excess water, which are necessary for protection of inter ests in California, must be built in Mexican Lower California if at all. Put private capital cannot and will uot undertake the task, and the

 Were the peninsula extremely valuable to Mexico, and likely to be developed by her in any near fu- ture, it would probably be a waste of thought and desire, for Califor- uiaus interested in this project ev- CIR to start discussion of the mat ter on a national scale, which is whot some of them apparently aim 10 do But save for the strategic value of the waters of the gulf to ally Mexican nayy-to-be, Mexican rating of the value of the remote reoiou cannot, We think, be high; Jud it is not beyond reason to be- .ieve that turn may come .u the the relations of the two republics when the hopes of Californians may be real ized. But the indispensable pri- or fact must be an administration in Mexico City able to withstand popular clamor against transfer of territory to a power that by force, years ago, took much Mexican spoil. The memory of this fiIching pro- cess has not been obliterated, and still has to be recEoned with in discussion of cominp events.

MARROW ESCAPE FOR FLYER
Broken FIanse Sent Train OFF Rails
Near Troy

A broken hange on the locomotice of
the Green Mountain flyer, due in Troy
at 4.35 Monday caused the locomo-
tive and mail car of the train to leave
the rail at a dangerous curve on the
Boston and Maine tracks between Mel
rose and Oil Mill Hill on the outskirts
of Troy and they just missed toppling
over the embankment
There is a steep down grade at this
point and it is estimated that the train
was travelling faster than thirty-five
miles an hour when the locomotive
left the track. James Mullaly, the
driver, applied the emergency brake
and managed to bring the train to a
stop just on the brink of the en-
bankment, after it had torn up a
hundred yards of roadbed and ties.
The train was made up of mail car,
baggage car, a dining car and sever
al coaches. Conductor John Reilly
was in charge of the train
The Boston and Maine wrecking
crew from Mechanicville was rushed
to the scene and derricked the derail-
ed cars back on the tracks. While
the train was off the track passenger
and freight trains were sent over the
eastbound track between Merose
and Oil Mill hill.

Petrograd, Sept. 22.-petrograd
and Riga are now considered safe be-
cause of recent victories, according
to the announcement of the war Office
and because OF the withdrawal of
large force of AustroGerman troops
for the big drive through Bulgaria.
London, Sept. 21.-The Whereabouts
of the Russian wilma army, estimat-
ed variously from 100000 to half a
million men, is shrouded in mystery.
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg today
closed the ring whose formation be-
gan with the capture of the heart OF
western Russia's railway system,
wilma. Berlin, in this afternoons re-
port asserts that the right wing OF
Gen Won Eichhorn's army has reach
ed the region east of Ida, southeast
of Novogrudok. This means that the
last line of retreat left to the Rus
SLAMS, the Wilno, ,Baronowitsch rail,
has been cut and is in German hands.
Won Hindenburg's trap is set.
There is every justification, how
ever, for the question: Are the Rus
SLAMS caught in it or did they escape
in the nick of time? The Russian re-
treat from Wilma began on Septemb
er IS. Did these three days which
have since elapsed and in the course

behind to hamper the pursuit?
Although it is not yet clear wheth
er the Germans are still in posses
sion of the Molodechno junction,
reached by their cavalry late last
week, and although Petrograd asserts
this point is still in Russian hands.

Meanwhile the Bavarian troops un-

The Germans are now believed to
be aiming at general junction of

with the Slonim army at Minsk, the
junction of the Bres-Litoysk-Mo

Britain Likely to Act Because Censor
ship was Evaded

London. Sept. 21-Government
prosecution of the Northcliffe news
papers for evading the censorship
was limited in the House of Com
mons today by Sir john A. Simon
when he announced in reply to a
question, that the story recently pub
lished with regard to the destruc-
tion of the great Russian munitions
factory at Okhta had not been sub
mitted to the censor. This fact, he
added, had been brought to the no.
tice of the public prosecutor.
The story in question said that the
explosion, which resulted in the com
plete destruction of the munitions
factory, was the work of a German
spy and that. it crippled the Russian
munitions output to such an extent
that the allies were compelled to
furnish much of their own supplies
to Russia. The story added that
thousands of workmen had been Kill
