Little, the foreman of the jury, was
for conviction before he heard the
evidence, and had expressed his
opinion that the defendant would
hang, and said statement was made
on the night of October Is, 1916, and
that the same was unknown to the de-
PENDANT and his counsel until the
jurors sworn and the evidence prac-

THREE CARGO[s OF.
MAHOGANY HERE
DURING THE WEEK

Mahogany imports are increasing,
as it was expressed by shipping
man, yesterday. There are three car
goes due during this week, and it was
said that one of the steamers to be
expected is the E. O. Saltmarsh,
which, steaming from AKIN, West
Africa, is reported to have been long
enough on the voyage to be close to
Pensacola now. This steamers
movements are unreported in the
Maritime Register for the past sew
eral weeks, but consignees have IN
formed local harbor officials that the
steamer would shortly arrive here.
The American steamer Hornet, due
Friday, and the American steamer
Honduras, due the following day, it
is asserted, will all come with car
goes for the Mengel Company, and
the entire consignments are to be
handled through the port of Pensa-
cola, direct to Louisville on special
trains.
Should { steamer e. o. Salt
marsh reach here this week, her ar
rival will be greeted with interest
by a large number who know the
steamer Familiarity, and also know
Captain Rogers, who has been in ac-
tive command ever since the steam
er's launching some years ago.
The American steamship VIM. Fl.
Murphy, which has just left Pensa-
cola after dischargind cargo of ma
hogany, is under orders to reload as
rapidly as possible and to return
here. The Murphy went to From
terra, and thence will go to Tampicoi
and leave that port for her loading
point on the coast of Nicaragua, COM

The Valdez Miner says: John A Selischer. editor of Leslie's says that If Alaska does not get what she wants from Washington. that the threat to secede may bring the government to time, Just what Alaska would gain by seceding Is very doubtful, as the territory would not have money enough left after the grafters got through with her to pay for a nigger's funeral. It would be much better to get what we want by showing the government what We have to give than by any threat of secession. The United States nas taken out s600.000. 900 from Alaska since it was purchased from Russia, and about all that Alaska has got in return has been lot of parasites to fatten al the expense of her citizens md it has taken a handspike and much cajolery to get enough to run our )ostoffices and roads. No, secession Is

HOPE FOR BRITAIN.
Seattle Pip


 Even though the central powers lave advanced their war interest somewhat at the expense of the allies, the issue of the war Is yet far from being decided, and with the growing bulk of Britain's army and the preser- vation intact, and even strengthening of it's tremendous sea power, the final decision Is in as much in doubt as ever
 This conclusion Is made reasonable through the recent statement of Pre- mier Asquith before the house of com mons in which the premier indicated that Great Britain had been able to enlist, equip and place in the field ap- proXimately 100000 soldiers, while the allied forces on the west front held off Germany and its great war power for fifteen months. This Is the great achievement of the allies, and to the minds of many transcends in im- portance any victory that the central powers have been able to gain in the field.
 From the standpoint of the allies Great Britain has room for brighter hope than it's public feeling evidences During @ period when German war power was at It's highest point, and Great Britain at its lowest, the allies have been able to escape national ex- tinctlon, and, in a measure. to hold practically all of their national boun. daries, except in the case of Russia England has a million and one-hali more soldiers in the field than a year ago. Much blood and brawn have beer lost by all the armies, but If the meas. ure of power be men, the allies have three times the strength of population that the central powers have to draw from

City Official Paper
NOME, ALASKA, JAN. fs, 1916.

The hostile demonstration which greeted an attempt to hold a peace meeting in the British metropolis Is most convincing evidence that the British mind Is becoming attuned to the idea that peace Is not only i'm possible but Is also undesirable as long as there remains hope of beating the Ieaton allies into complete subjection Il is also most significant indication that the British people are not so unalterably opposed to the war as many of the reports previously s.n, out would suggest.
 True enough, the London annonno, nent of the storm arising at the naace meeting may be artfully colored 10 shit the wishes of the war party which of course controls the censors. stiu '"efe Is no more reason for this view 'lah there is for believing that the reports that the people were onnosad
 
 1o the war fs a sincere statement o+ '"c1' There is, in all probability. a considerable portion of the British public who are opposed 10 the war. ra. sardiess pf the consequences of such opposition. This Is bound to be. Prob. ably no nation has ever gone to war without there were some who were analterably opposed. no matter what the cause might be, whether just and right CT ignoble and wrong.
 The British may not as a whole be exactly in sympathy with this war or the causes which led to their being in- aleted with it's trials and desolations still there are few actual indications that they are not resolved to see mat ters to a final conclusion now that they are in It. Even as regards the labor element 1t would appear from the evil dences that the dissatisfaction over the enforcement of general conscrip ton Is confined to but two or three organizations which are in a position 10 enforce a certain amount of recog- nition which may result In their ex- emption from military duty. These arep robably. offering considerable ob- lection to the war and army service and are doubtless not to be blamed for an attempt to escape from possible, even probable, injury and death. But, IL Is hardly to be believed that the great mass of the British working men are not In sympathy with the govern ment In the great crisis with which 1t Is confronted. The recruiting records seem ample proof that the British peo- pie generally are resolved to do their duty and this view Is further confirmed by such episodes as the stoning of those who are seeking to promote peace regardless of cost. It Is possible that at the outset of the titan struggle tho British masses may have been against the immense sacrifices entailed by war; may even have been dissatisfied with the government Dor taking a stand which resulted in placing the na- ton in jeopardy, but it is hardly prob- able that the feeling still persists save in slight degree. Patriotism Is one of the strongest features of the Eng hsh character and now that the people recognize that the very existence of the nation is at stake it Is hardly believ- able that even the enforcement of con- seription will be greatly opposed, ex- eept In certain quarters which do not, however represent more than tithe
