A mlScoNCEPTloN ABOUT
 GERMANY.

In an editorial entitled What is Ger man Culture?" the Philadelphia North American, of November 2S, undertakes to explain some of the current mis- conceptions concerning the German nation which have had a remarkable effect in influencing the attitude of the American people.
 The article. as the title suggests, deals in particular with the general misunderstanding of the meaning of many German phrases, which have been held up to the people of America as examples of the tendencies of thought of the German people, the most of which are capable of an interpretation which places the Germans in anything but an enViable light before the world. As for instance, the much discuss d term so consistently Haunted by the opposers of the German cause: Ger man Culture" It is doubtless true that this particular phrase has had an enor- nous influence in creating a state of mind unfavorahle to the German cause among even the most fair minded who viewed the constant reiteration of the term in the light of an assumption of an exclusive superiority which was hardly confirmed by the evidence. And one can hardly blame them for this view In the absence of proper un- derstanding of the word, the constant superior quality by every advocate of the German cause from the Kaiser down, could have no other effect than to cause irritation. As the article sug- gests "it has had an inflamatory effect upon the public mind that is quite deadly. The Kaiser exhorts his troops 10 defend the Fatherland and 'Kulture. It was Teutonic 'Kulture in peril from Russian barbarian which necessitateC an invasion of Belgium. German 'Kul- tur.' we were instructed, is the very soul of Teutonic civilization. the up lifting force in Europe, the one thing needful to regenerate the world' and also Tt sanctifed the ambitions of Pan Germanism and justified every device used to spread it's benificent influence Small wonder it is that, being misun- derstood, the phrase became the synonym for presumptious and un- justifiable arrogance assumed by ma . ton which, in the view then held. was guilty of q most eontemptuous dis regard of all that the world was as- customed to look upon as evidence oi culture and refinement. And when contrasted with the seeming unwar- ranted devastation of Belgium. and the countless tales of atrocities committed by the German troops, all of whicf savored of the rankest barbarism, tho

COMMISSIONER RIGGS, BOOSTER.

Alaskans have reason to feel proud of Thomas Riggs, Jr, member of the Alaska engineering commission. He is one uf the best informed men re garding Alaskan conditions that the Territory has ever produced. and he is using his knowledge, on every pos sible occasion, to further the inter- ests of the territory.
 Mr Riggs believes, like President Wilson. that if one railroad will help Alaska. two railroads will help it more, and he evidences his confidence in the future of the Territory by pre- dieting that some day we will have two trunk lines connecting the interior with the coast
 Mr Riggs also believes that the in- terior country should be provided with a central power plant. operated by the government in connection with the railroad. His knowledge of conditions has convinced him that such plant is absolutely necessary to the develop ment of the gold placers of the inland valleys which cannot be worked pro- 'ftably under present conditions. He appreciates the need of government assistance to recover the Rnaons in
