FOREIGN SHIPS

ROTTERDAM. Netherlands.-han
foreign shipbuilding orders that would
have been placed in Holland have
gone to America, in consequence OF
the uncertainty created by the ship
export law recently passed by the
Dutch parliament. according to. a COM

of agriculture, industry and commerce
by shipbroker, A. Schippers, who

America has never been able to com
pete with Dutch shipbuilders, neither
before nor during the war, but that
so soon as Holland was closed to the
export Of ships the United States has
booked big orders for the building OF
vessels for European firms. at prices
that are fabulously high-mueh high

cember 81, 1914, less than 10 per cent
OF the tonnage building here was be-
ing constructed to foreign orders, this
proportion had risen on June l, 1916,
to about 30 per cent.
1t is petitioned that the royal de.
cree on the export of ships shall be
so amended that ships may at all
times be exported, except If it should
appear that at the time of their COM
pletion the state has need of such
tonnage.

t. A PERTINENT REMARK


 It may be well at this time to remark that the importation of men from the states or even fre ! another town in Alaska to Ketchikan, in an off, cal capacity will be generally speaking, received with resentment. If the administration desires to make changes in the official family, we have nothing to say, provided the changes are made by taking men or women from our own community. There areplenty here just as capable for any pub lie office as can be found anywhere else. And what's more, they are just as desirous and des- crying.
 So if any changes are contemplated, the powers that be may as well learn now that the importa- ton of officials to tell us how to act and enforce our laws shall be looked upon as insults to our in teIligence. There are a few democrats here. Enough to fill all the offices. And they are good democrats-except those who are bad However if there aren't enough good ones to fill the places, we can find plenty republicans who would be will ling to sacrifice their pride and become demo- crats while they would be in office.

HOW WOULD IT WORK?

Those of us who have always advocated giving the women the right to vote and have encouraged them to take parts in Il political affairs to the extent of making the country dry, should be con- sistent and turn over to them the government machinery; such as the enforcement of the laws. When Alaska becomes dry; everybody is agreed that bootlegging shall flourish. This shall con stitute a breach of the law. It shall then become consistent for us to let the womenI enforce the law, None can deny that the women made Alas ha dry IL was their vote added to the mems vote that formed the majority and declared it dry. They have proven themselves capable to curtail the mems privileges, let them force the men to respect the maiority's wishes-which is to be dry. The quickest way to have a bad law repealed is to enforce it. The quickest way to make the dtys see the error of their notion is, we believe to let them enforce the dry law He is poor lawyer who can pick a flaw in a law but cannot even suggest a remedy.

GIRL STUDENTS LOSE
CLOTHING IN fire AT
STANFORD UNIVERSITY

Nampa, Oct. 12.-In a letter just re-
ceived by e. II. Dewey, of this city,
from his daughter, Miss Geraldine,
who is a student in the Leland Stan
ford university at Palo Alto, Cal, Miss
Dewey graphically describes a fire of
proportions breaking out in the Alpha
Phi sorority hall Friday evening of last
week in which many of the young
women who were members of the sor-
GRITTY suffered total loss of their sup
ply of clothing and narrowly escaped
death. Only through their own COM
posture and that of the young men who
were in attendance at the ball which
was in progress. were serious conse-
quences averted. The young women
on the third floor of the building lost
their entire supply of clothing, while
those on the second floor lost the
greater part of theirs. The jewelry of
all was saved as a result of the young
women having worn it to the even
ing's function. The fire was extern
guished, but not until a great loss had
been sustained, and it is estimated that
an expenditure OF $4,000 will be neces-
STATED to repair the building.
