ALASKA SHOULD HAVE NATION
 AL GUARD.

Senator Aldrich has introduced a bill providing for an Alaska national guard. The measure is wisely direct ed. A law providing or a national guard should be passed at the ear Hest possible date. Indications are that the United States will soon be at war with one of the greatest na- tions in the world. In fact it is ad- mitted that a state of war virtually exists at the present time. An oppor- tunity should be given the people of Alaska to serve their country if they so desire, and the sooner the oppor-
 tunity is afforded the better it will be-
 There is none of us who do not hope that the necessity for Alaskans to serve their country on battleflelds will never arise. We hope that men will not have to leave the territory to join the federal forces either for at tack of defense However, if the worst should come Alaskans should be given the chance that all would want under the circumstances Fix.

TEDDY's Plans
ARE DISCUSSED
IN The SENATE
BRYAN SEES PRESIDENT AND
SAYS HE WILL SERVE WHER-
EVER HE is PLACED

Washington, April 16.-Theodore
Roosevelt's plans for raising volun-
teer expedition to go abroad were laid
before the senate military committee
today by Chairman Chamberlain at a
meeting called to consider the admin
istration's army selective draft bill.
Details of the plan were submitted by
the colonel to the chairmen of the SEN
ate and house military committees in
response to a request made when he
was here recently to confer with Pres
ident Wilson. While expressing hearty
approval of the administration bill,
Colonel Roosevelt insisted that volun-
teers should be put on the firing line
and that the American flag should be
there at the earliest possible moment.
Members of the committee gave
careful consideration to the proposal
but there was no indication what ac-
ton would be taken.
The committee was asked today to
determine whether to hold public
hearings on the administration bill.
Whether this is done or not, war de-
partment officials and army officials
win continue their arguments for the
legislation before the two war depart
ments.
The administration $7,000,000000
revenue bill, which has passed the
house, was approved today by the SEN
ate finance committee, and will be TAX
en- up in the senate tomorrow for pas
sage.
President Wilson received William
j. Bryan at the White House this
morning. Mr.. Bryan reiterated his
offer recently made by telegraph TO
be of any service he could during the
war.
After leaving the president, Mr..
Bryan dictated a statement declaring
his intention to support the govern
ment in any war plan upon which II
might decide. He declined however
to discuss CONSUMPTION specifically.

charges its waters into the lake. This
creek is deep, though somewhat
sluggish stream, and drains an inn
mense area of country. 1t is in this
immediate neighborhood that R. E..
Odds has large holdings of land and
which he will improve as game pre-
serve. All his holdings in this vicinity
have a lake frontage and the plan is
to build several hunting lodges on the
shores of the lake, connecting the
lodges with the big hotel on Old Tam
pa bay, which is only about three miles
distant, with fine roads.
The Tarpon Springs Tampa brick
road passes between the head of Tam
pa bay and the lower end of Lake
Butler and is only little over mile
distant from either point. Broo6er
creek has long been a favorite fishing
ground for Tampa automobile parties,
and when the improvements contena-
plated are made it will be one of the
most popular resorts in Florida
A ride around the lake reveals the
fact that its shore line, on all sides of
lit, is high, beautifully timbered coun-
try, with an almost entire absence Of
anything approaching swamps or
marshes. At the lower end the land
lis lower and the land is low across
the short neck into Tampa bay, and
canal could easily be cut through con-
Meeting the two bodies. That this will
be done in the near future there is no
doubt. Another canal of about mile
in length could be cut through into the
Anclote river and then it would be
possible to go from here to Tampa by
water and into the gulf, thence up the
Anclote river into Lake Butler and
back to Tampa again.
The lay of the land affords sites for
homes that could be made dreams of
elegance, and the day is coming when
the locality will be filed with them.
No Other section Of the United States
holds forth me sane advantages, AND
NOV that men with capital have found
it cut its develonment viii be rapid.
Lake. Butler also affords an adnira-
me stretch. Of water for holding re-
gattas, rowing. sailing, or for power
Rotor boats, and this feature could be
v3ade an attraction which would alone,
attract annually hundreds OF visitors.
Another feature of the Lake But
Tier country lies in the fact that a bolIl-
Ievard, close to the shore line of the
lake, could connect with the lake end
of Tarpon avenue and thence along the.
lake front to BROKER creek, coming
out at Oldsmar at, the head of Old
Tampa bay, or in that vicinity. This
would also connect with the present
Tarpon Springs-T Tampa road. and
would make drive rivaling in ele-
gance the lake shore drive in Chicago,
or riverside drive in New York, with
added natural tropical charms which
those famous drives can never have.

Treason Against us

Washington, April 16.-President
Wilson today issued a proclamation
warning all persons whether citizens
or aliens that reasonable acts, or at
tempts to shield those committing such
acts, will be vigorously prosecuted.
The proclamation emphasizes that it
will be treason for any one to fail to
inform the authorities of any treason
able act any one may see, or know
about, and also that treason consists
of giving either aid or comfort in any
form to enemies.
