DEMOCRACY TRUE TO FORM.


There is more than usual cause for
rejoicing among Americans in|the &C
ton taken by the National Council
of Soldiers and Workmen's delegates
in Russia, voting unanimously for an
immediate offensive against the Ger
mans
Here is democracy running true to
form.
Americans of ultra pacifist type
have been fond of extolling the vir'
tues of the Russian revOlutiOnaries.
Especially has this been SO in the
East. Among these people there was
not a little satisfaction over the early
Russian hesitancy on the battle front
and accounts of inter-trench faterni-
zation we're received joyously by
them.
But now the Russian democracy Is
hitting its stride The local council
at Petrograd isn't running the whole
show any more.
The plain people of all Russia are
in control In national delegate as.
sembly they have voted unanimous y
to begin offensive action at once.
This means all Russia is united,
even the most ardent ultrsSrevolu-
tionaries joining in the big war move.
The Russian government today Is
admittedly the most revolutionary on
earth. All in all, it is the most radi-
cal. And it is representative of the
plain people of Russia.
Where does this leave those Amer
lean radicals who have been bowling
against war? Those upon whom
they have looked as the leaders of
revolutionary purity have shown
themselves capable of understanding
the big world issues at stake and
have headed straight for the solu.
ton. On with the war! they have
said.
This splendid decision of the Rus.
sian democracy should put the quiet.

of the forty pound variety. They will be laid on standard guage embank- ment and will be replaced at the earliest possible moment with stand ard guage track, the rails composing which will be regular weight. This stretch of road is being constructed with the idea of facilitating the movement of timbers and ties which are to be used in repair work on the Panama Valley railroad and also to as sist the people of Fairbanks to get a wood supply from Goldstream brought into town. After the five miles of track is completed, it's operation, as we'll as that of the Panama Valley railroad, will be facilitated by the ar rival here of eight new cars and a small locomotive, which are now en route to Fairbanks from the Outside.
 Thousand Working
 The number of men now employed on railroad construction work in ln- terior Alaska now numbers nearly a thousand. This number includes all of the employees of the commission and of the contractors. The men are working all along the line from Broad Pass north to Fairbanks and include the grading gangs of the contractors, the steel laying gangs, the crews of men ballasting track south of Nenana, all of the men employed around head quarters at Nenana, and contractors crews and Engineering commission employees north of Nenana. The ac- tual number of men employed is 925.
 Trouble on Line
 The flooding of the Nenana river south of Nenana has caused consid- erable trouble to the railroad build CTS in that it is threatening to wash out the right of way. The principal point at which danger threatens is Lost Slough, through which most of the water of the Nenana river is now going. This slough was once but fifty feet wide at the point where the railroad trestle crosses it, but the high water, assisted by jam in the Nenana river, caused the water to turn through Lost Slough and making it at least 100 feet wide. It was nec- eSsary to blow up one of the bridges along the line before the jam could be released.
 Commissioner Riggs expects to re- main in and about Fairbanks for sev- eral days. He will go out to Happy Junction to inspect the work that is being done in that vicinity, and will take a trip out over the line of the Panama Valley railroad to Chatanika before returning to his headquarters at Nenana.-Citizen.

FAlkBANhS, August E.-l mat Ine next two years, or the fall of 1919, will see the Alaska government rail- road completed is the opinion of Thomas Riggs, Jr., member of the Alaskan Engineering commission as expressed in an interview at Fairbanks recently. That time will certainly see trains in operation between Fairbanks and the coast, even if the road is not entirely completed, according to Mir. Riggs statement. The statement is based upon the fact that, after work is completed this fall, gap of but little more than ninety miles in length will separate the end of the line now being built south from Nenana and that under construction north of An chorage. This will mean that the only part of the line remaining to be con Structed during the summer of 1918, in addition to that ninety miles, will be the stretch lying between Fair banks and Nenana. It is hardly prob able, however, that all of this track will be under operation by next fall; it will merely have been laid.
 All of Mir. Riggs statements, how ever, are made with proviSoS. Both money and men in abundance will be needed if the road is to be complet- ed within two years time. And the war may also have the effect of ham pering operations to some extent
 Bridge Construction
 Mir. Riggs also spoke at consider able length regarding bridge con struction at the crossing of the Tan ana river at Nenana. Preliminary drafts of three classes of bridge are now being drawn at the Nenana head quarters of the Alaskan Engineering commission. The vertical lift bridge is that most favored at Nena, but drafts for draw bridge and baS- cule bridge are also being drawn. All of these drafts will be submitted to Chairman EdeS. of the commission, who will in turn submit them to the war department for approval. The war department will make the final selection of the kind of bridge that will be installed, and final plans for the permanent structure will then be drawn. Mir. Riggs estimates that the vertical lift bridge will cost in the neighborhood of $65O,O00 and the oth- CTS about the same amount, although any or all of them may go little higher or a little lower in contract price when it comes to letting con tracts for their construction, which is the course of action that is to be pursued by the commission. If the vertical lift bridge is eventually se- lected it will be a structure that will be sixty-fve feet above high water mark at Nenana.
