WILSON OUT FOR
 PREPAREDNESS
STARTS GREAT CAMPAIGN TO ROUSE COUNTRY TO THE
 SENSE OF NEEDS.

NEW YORK, Jan. 28.-President Wilson last night opened his speaking campaign for preparedness in strik- ing speech in this city to large audience. He admitted that he had changed his mind on the questions both of preparedness and the tariff board. In this respect the president said: "A year ago l said the question of preparedness was not pressing subject. 1 should be in bad way, though, if I had learned nothing in fourteen months. One year ago was not in favor of the tariff board but I have since learned that it is neces- sary." A striking feature of his plea for preparedness was the assertion that He COulu HOb piSulSt "hat HhiS h' come to the United States in the com ing years, even in those years close at hand, but he hoped and expected that the outlook for this nation would be as bright tomorrow as it is today. He spoke with exceeding earnestness in defense of his Mexican policy and reminded his audience that the United States would have lost the friendship of all the other American Republics if Mexico had been invaded. On the other hand, he declared, this country has the sympathy of all American peoples and governments and that is something greater than the conquest of any one nation.

Valdez PrOspector
 Defends the Judge
Resents Attack Made on Him by
 Seward Councilman.

The Valedz Prospector of January p contains a story of the attack on the character of Judge Brown by Council man Borgen of Seward and states that the judge did not have any stock m the wharf wher he rendered the decision. It also says that Judge Brown only put money in the wharf to aid the city and not for his own profit. The Prospector dwells on the fact, as stated in the Gateway, that Mayor Myers was not present at the meeting when the attack was made or he would have had the decency and intelligence to repudiate the attack in behalf of the city. It is said that the friends of the attacker are now trying to get him out of the fix. The Prospector concludes a half column account of the matter by tell ing that the judge is outside and by suggesting that the Seward council man has left himself open to serious consequences. The concluding words of the Valdez paper are:
 Judge Brown is at present on his vacation to the states and it is not known if he would take any action against his defamer if he were here but his many Valdez friends resent the imputation that in rendering his decision in the case that he was in- fluenced in any way. Aside from his judicial duties Judge Brown has shown that he is always ready to sac rifce his personal interests for the benefit of the community"

So ends another of those Alaska horrors. Captain Cramer and his gal lant crew were marooned on the island first and the ship Traveller had gone to the bottom until the Dora reported them snug at Seldovia. Then it was the Onward crew that got marooned. Shots calling for help were heard from the island and then the shots ceased and finally boat was seen leaving the blooming place. Now the "rescuers" get there and report not a sign of people having been there. As it has not been showing recently
