verses of last summer has been con-
quered by the Russian people and
the nation is full of new confidence
which manifests itself everywhere,
in the press, in public meetings and
on the streets.
The opening of the new offensive
of the legions Of the car against
the German and Austro-Hungarian
front has been awaited almost inn
patiently, because all classes are con-
WINGED that it will bring victory and
that no enemy will be on Russian
soil when fall comes.
The war against Turkey is con-
sidered decided. All papers speak
of Armenia as the new Russian
province" and predict the Turkish
government will ask for a separate
peace within two months
Russia i'm Good Condition.

There is no longer the slightest
doubt that we can crush our
enemies. Our frontier will not only

fore the coming summer ends a
large part of Germany will be in

were not able to take.

REPLACING LIGHT HORSEPOWER OFF
 IN THE MORNING

The force of the Alaska Electric Light & Power Company is busy now replacing all poles along the main feed line from the power house to Valentines corner in the city. The old poles are in good shape and would probably last for several years yet. but Manager Margrie stated to- day that in order to obyiate any chance of a pole falling during the high winds of winter causing a shut down of the power and possibly danger to life, the company is hay Ing them replaced
 The new poles are much higher than the old ones and when tho wir- ing has been overhauled and changed to them, the wires will be well above the street and will clear most of the buildings.
 Manager D. J. Margrie stated this morning that probably tomorrow morning the power in the down town section will be turned off at 4 o'clock a. m. and remain off un- til or 10 o'clock while the crew change several corner poles. At present the crew is setting the poles on the corners. This work will be done at Q time when the demand for electricity is very light.

resenting Alsace-Lorraine. This is draped in
black and no flowers adorn It,
Alsace- Lorraine is the lost child Of France,
and every Frenchman grleves for 1t. France
stlll claims It and since 1871, when It has been
in German hands 1t has been the hope of every
Frenchman to see this province restored to
France. 1t is the main cause Of the deep
seated hatred OF the French for the Germans.
II the allies are In n position to make demands
when the war is over France will ask tho re-
