MONDAY, MAY I. 1916

The question oi whetnar tie century old fear of Russia will not intimately drive Sweden, and possibly the other Scandinavian countries, into becoming partlci- pants in the war as allies ot the central powers is offering the stu dents of international conditions an interesting field for specula ton; and there are not few who almost unreservedly predict that a serious defeat of the Germanic , armies in one of the theaters of war will be the signal for Sweden at least to align herself with the reutons.
 It is difficult to say if this de- duction is based upon a fair premise or is simply a surmise born of the acknowledged fear ot the Swedes that victory for the Russian may spell their own fu- ture destruction asan independent nation. It is we'll understood that the Swedish people have long recognized Russia as a natural enemy. Sweden and Norway have been one of the chief obstacles to the realization of the Russian dream of unfettered entry to the seas. As far back as the Swedes can remember they have been in terror Of Russian attempt to SC cure a much coveted warm water port on the west coast of the

Scandinavian peninsula

ScandinaVian peninSuia. Ills could, of course, be attained only at Norway's expense-but, Nor way could only be reached through Sweden. Also, there is little reason to doubt that their fears in this respect were well founded Russia would unques- tionably have made a serious at tempt in his direction years ago were in not that England stood behind the Scandinavians, offering a menace that the Moscovites dared not risk. Russia had felt the weight of Britain's hand too often to care for further attentions Now, however, all fears that Bri- tain might offer armed protest to Russian encroachments in the Scandinavian peninsula have been practically removed through the formation of the entente al iiance and Sweden and Norway fnd themselves standing alone to face whatever efforts the Rus sians may care to make. There fore, 1t would not be surprising that the }Swedes should view with alarm the possibility of Ger many-the only state to which they could look for substantial help-being defeated In a great measure 1t would appear that the Interests of Germany are their own interests.
 In view of the possible alter native Sweden could reasonably be expected to join hands with Germany in the present struggle if it appeared that by so doing she could swing the victory to their side. With Germany tri- umphant the future of Sweden from Russian encroachments would be assured, for a very long period at least.
 However, as far as may be iudg- ed by present indications, there is not the slightest inclination on the part of Sweden to recede from her non-belligerent status, re- gardless of what her views may be. Thus far neither by word or act has Sweden, or the other Scandinavian nations, displayed the least indication of a desire to see Germany win or of an inteh- tion to cast their lot with the Teutons. Sweden may ultimately enter the fray but it is a tenable deduction that she never will. Regardless of where their sympa thies may lie it is certain that neither Sweden or the others will permit themselves to display par tisanship of any character until the final issue of the great strug' ole is clearly in view. For one thing Germany does not seem ir particularly need of help at pres ent; another is that the Scandin' avians, like ourselves, are reap ing a mighty harvest from the desolations of their neighbors Further, they are in a position to supply certain proportion ot the economic and martial want. of both contenders. In German Russia and England they art finding too valuable a field fol commercial enterprise to assume
 an attitude toward one of tn,
The Nome daily nugget., 1916-05-01

other that might jeopardize their commercial interests with either They are making money hand over fist and will unquestionably refrain from entering the war as long as possible. The people who are making the profits will see to that. As long sas the money continues to. pour in 1t is reasona- bly certain that the prospect of future menace willanot be allowed to stop the golden stream. The passion for wealth will easily
 overcome all possible fears for the future and unless something should happen, such as an over whelming defeat of the Germans or some overt act on the part of Russia, to cause a reawakening of the national consciousness of danger there is every prospect that the present neutral status will be maintained until the con clusion of the war. Another fea- ture to be considered is the ques- ton of whether the Scandina- vian countries could materially change the situation on the side ot the Teutons. Even when the .;oie arrives that the final out come of the war Is clearly dis. closed it is still doubtful if the Seandinavians would enter on the side of the Teutons for the reason that that if Germany i. triumphant there will be no need for their services and if on the verge of defeat such forces as they might throw into the scale would hardly have other effect than to hold off her ultimate overthrow. If the allies are to win at all it must be through such pfeponderance of power that the resources of Germany and her ally will be completely over whelmed. Against such gigantic array of forces as must be devel- oped before victory will rest with the allies the united military and naval strength of the Scandina- vian nations would very proba- ply be inadequate to lend the as sistance required to turn the tide
 of war sufficiently Ito insure a Teuton victory. And if victory were not achieved as a result of their assistance the future of the Scandinavians would indeed be dark for their acquisition by the Russians would then be a moral certainty. From every point of view it would seem utterly fool ish for the Scanadinavians to enter unles it should be immedi- ately when Germany is at the maximum of efficiency. The ac- quisition of approximately mill lion and a half men, well trained and equipped, at the present time might insure the triumph of the central powers but it is clear that should their entry be delayed un- til the present strength of Ger many and Austria is reduced to the point where they are facing
 defeat such comparatively small force could a best only de- lay the final denouement.

eminent. A year after Harmar's de-
feat General st. Clair was sent
against the Indians with another
mixed force OF regulars and militia.
His little army, counting but 1.4Oe ell
fectives, was attacked on the 4th OF
November, 1891, by a nearly equal
force of Indians, and routed, with a
loss of 632 killed and 264 wounded"
The committee of the house OF rep
resentatives appointed to investigate
this disaster reported that 1.-The mill

principally of substitutes and totally
ungo~ernable and regardless Of mill
tary duty and subordination;" and
that "the attack was unexpected, the
troops having just been dismissed
from morning parade. 1t commenced
upon the militia, who were in advance
of the main army. and who fled thru
the main army without firing gun.
This circumstance threw the troops
into some disorder, from which it ap-
pears they never recovered during the
action" In the OPINION of the COM
mi.tee, "the want of discipline and
experience Of the troops" was one Of
the main causes of the defeat.-Up.

MUSIC A SOCIAL FORCE

A long time ago it was discovered
that songs are better than laws to
keep folks out of prison.
Good music clings to the memory,
ready with its good argument for
every occasion. 1t is conceivable that
q great composer may record in a
symphony or work of lighter form his
own record of some moral victory
won, and that years after the death
of the composer the subtle and inn
passioned record of his victory may
ne heard by concert audience. 1t is
that large percentage Of
the audience may be definitely helped
to gain similar moral victories. 1t is
not beyond belief that campaigns
against vice might be rendered the
more unnecessary by campaigns for
good music.-Kansas City Times.
