literally worked himself out of busi- ness. and would have worked his back CTS out of business had they been will ing to stick to that extent.
 There was just one thing wrong with that Big Town Stuff'-the big town was here in imagination only. The lowered advertising rates. in stead of increasing advertising, de creased the bankroll. II was not business failure-it was a business SUICIDE. It was the "Bigtown" idea tried on "Smalltown" territory. The result was natural.
 Some weeks ago new and energetic timber started in to try that old and busted experiment over again in the Fairbanks of today. The manager worked like slave. night and day. and APPEARED to be making pro aress, but he found. as we found ten . ears ago, that he only APPEARED 10 be making progress. and that such progress as he made was al his own expense. When he found that out it Fairbanks of today has the two small dailies and the small weekly that are the towns newspaper limit. The work vas good with our contemporary and
 here was plenty of it, but the price it was sold at was less than cost there is only one result of continuing 10 sell at less than cost.
 Today there are two daily newspa- pers in Fairbanks There is no col fusion or combine between them, and will not be Each shop will run as LIS manager dictates. and without ref crence to the other shop. BUT, the field today is in the hands of men who know what il costs to set an adver- tisement and publish newspaper, and if either of them sell advertising space TOT less than cost, or sell to one ad yertiser cheaper than they do to an other advertiser, the one who does 1t will know in advance that he Is sim ply sacrificing his time and his strength and his paper and his type, 10 the end that his newspaper days n Fairbanks and the world will be hortcned in the same proportion.
 Knowing the manager of The Citi- zen as We do having worked in the aame shops with him for years and having imported him into Fairbanks to manage the big plant of ten years Ago. We feel safe in warning the busi- ness men of Fairbanks that it will be just as well for them to not come to us and say: We can get this done at Caskey's for so much but would rath- CT give you the work if you can shade the pflCe d llltIe, TOT lHe cHdHCeS al U that we would not only turn down the kind offer, but that we wouldn't be- lieye the statement.
 There will be no raise of advertis- ing rates in the News Miner office be- cause of the reduction in the number of papers in Fairbanks, but (by the same token) there NEVER WILL BE A LOWERING OF PRICES HERE, while it costs what it does today to set advertising or print a newspaper in Fairbanks-Fairban NewsMiner

THE PLAYERS AND THE GAME.

Something over ten years ago two longheaded, practical business men of Fairbanks (Mr Ray Brumbaugh and MT. Loss Bernard) met the writer in Seattle and explained in de- tail to him how Fairbanks of that time and the time to come was a second Dawson. The crying need of Fairbanks at that time was alleg- ed to be a greater and better news paper office and newspapers than had been, and other business men of Fair banks were willing to finance the play. That's why we came We arrived with everything in the printing line that money could buy We started in with a bigger and better force than the San Francisco Examiner has today. We had four reporters. solicitor. edi- tor, circulator, bookkeeper, two fore men, two pressmen. two presses. high class job printer and all the luxuries imagina ble We printed morning and evening and twice on Sundays, and every payday at least one bank had plenty of business to do and much thinking.

AMBASSADOR VOICES UNION
OF PAN=AMERICAN STRENGTH
Adjournment Of Second Scientific
Congress Occasions Warm Sup
port of President.

Adjournment Of the second Pan
American scientific congress last
week after thirteen-day session was
marked BY a crysralization of senti-
nent for an alliance of American ma
lions to safeguard the Western Hemi-
sphere from European military and
commercial aggression.
''It is certainly not the business of
the delegates to this congress to de-
termine what course shall be followed
by the foreign offices Of our coun-
rr:es, but we who have breathed this
atmosphere of American fraternity
can at least let them know that this
congress from the president Of the
United States to the delegate from
the most distant part Of the CONT
nent. is united in the noble desire OF
seeking political unity Of the conti-
nent so that the nations which COM
pose it may thus lend one another
mutual support and thus afford
themselves better protection against
foreign danger
Ambassador Suareg's declaration
was received with much applause by
the delegates. He is known to favor
strongly the establishment of 3
eague of the Pan-American republics
for the preservation of neutrality and
the protection from possible invasion
oy European powers. A majority OF
the delegates from the twenty-one
Latin-AmeTican republics hold the
same views.

DU PONT PLANT KAS FIVE
EXPLOSIONS IN TWO DAYS
From Sunday to Tuesday Night Many
Accidents Happen Not At
tributed to Spies.

The fifth explosion in two days at
the Du Pont Powder plants in the
vicinity of Wilmington, Del. occur
red late Tuesday night in the Hagley
Yards on the outskirts of that, city.
4 small wheel mill blew up and be-
yond destroying the building and
about ton of powder 20 damage
was done. No one was in the mill.
The fourth explosion occurred late
Tuesday afternoon at the smokeless
powder plant at Carney's Point, N.
J., across the Delaware river from
Wilmington. Thirteen tons Of pow
der went off without injuring any
one.
Last Sunday night there was a
blast at Carney's Point which killed
three men and on Monday there was
an explosion at the Hagley yards and
another one at Carney's Point.
The Du Pont company attribute
the explosions to unavoidable acci-
dents, though the definite cause is
not known.
THE large number Of explosions
at this time" said representative OF
the company, "is undoubtedly due to
the fact that the company's force is
one hundred times as great as when
the European war broke out and
there is so much more work to be
done. It is also fact that nearly
all OF the orders are hurried and it is
also true that some Of the operatives
have not been at the business long
enough to acquire the experience OF
many OF the older men,"

ARRESTS UNION DOCTOR
WHEN SMALL BOY DIES
Father Asserts That Physicians Fail
ure to Stay With Son
Caused His Death.

Following the death Of a patient,
DR.. Theodore Maddox a Union ply
81 ian, was Wednesday arrested and
Immediately released on bail charg ed
with manslaughter. The warrant was
sworn out by the father of Hulie
Studdard, a lad Of fifteen years, re-
siding in a mill village in Union.
Studdard was accidentally -ot by
Oliver Austin, a boy of his own age,
while they were hunting Saturday
afternoon.
DR.. Maddox was summoned to at
tend the injured youth. He applied
first aid" and left at an urgent cal!
from another patient to whom he
was going when called to the NO md
ed boy. Two hours later, having an
swered the other call, the physician
returned al amputated the leg. The
boy died soon after the operation.
The father claimed loss of blood
was tho direct cause of death, and
that lack CT prompt attention result
ed in death. The physician says that
he responded to the call even when
already hurrying to another patient
and that he did all mat could be
done at that time; to have operated
before the patient had rallied from
the shock would have meant almost
certain death. The verdict Of the
coroner's jury was that the lad came
to his death "by misfortune acci,
dentally."

RUSSIAN FRONT Is QUIET
AFTER BLOODIEST BATTLES
Both Sides Admit That Fighting Has
Been Fiercest Since Begin
ming Of War.


There have been no fresh develop
ments on the Russian front where the
cold weather again has set in, the
thermometer at some points touching
twenty degrees below zero. Although
for the moment the Russians have
ceased their attack upon the Austro-
German lines from the Pripet river to
the Bessarabian frontier, inforua-
ton from German sources is that
they have not given up the venture,
but are merely reorganizing their
forces for another formidable assault
The Russians are reported as forti-
lying the positions recently captured
and in this way their front has been
gradually extended until they occupy
about thirty-four miles Of the east
bank Of the middle reaches Of the
Stripa river, a position which it is
deemed is secure against recapture by
the Austrians.
The Petrograd official communica-
ton says that the caIE on the Czner-
owitz front is due to the huge losses
and resulting Generalization Of the
Austrian-Hungarian army. That
there is some basis for this statement
is evident from the statement in a
Hungarian newspaper that the losses
on both sides in the Bessarabian bat
ties so far exceeded one hundred and
seventy-fye thousand, or moro THAI
the total British losses in the whole
Dardanelles campaign.
Another Hungarian newspaper
states on the authority Of staff re-
port that the fighting on this front
has been the bitterest and bloodiest
in the history Of the war, both sides
sacrificing men in manner without
parallel.
