Editor Leader.-With much regret I
note in your good paper under date
of July 10 unjust criticism through

ate thousands Of dollars. per annum to

man, Mr. Baskin, that | have been

him know that this county does not

I wish to inform this man and all citi-

for the farming population if pushed.
With best wishes,
Sincerely yours,

CANADA AND CONsCRIPTION

Canada is engaged in a tremend- ous campaign, marked by no little bitterness, over the conscription is sue. The present government has a bill before parliament providing for the conscription of men in order to keep the ranks filled at the front and to bring the total quota from the do- minion up to 5O0,000. It is by no means certain, however, that it will pass.
 Since the war began Canada has furnished and equipped about 400,- 900 men-surely remarkable show ing for country of but 100000 people, 5000 miles away from the scene of the war. The showing is made more impressive when it is re- called that during the Boer war Can ada furnished England with only B. 900 men, and they were sent to Af- rica and maintained at Britain's ex- pense and not at the expense of Can ada. In addition Canada has in the present war loaned money to the mother country and otherwise car ried on the struggle in a manner that has done credit to it's patriotism and reseprcefulness.
 The proponents of conscription use Americas experience as leverage, pointing out that the United States avoided England's and Canada's mis- takes in resorting to conscription at

WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH THE
 COUNTRY?

For the past week the news dis patches received by The Times have been filled with stories of strikes, riots, and rumors of martial law on the outside. It would appear from the news matter that the laborers and workmen of the nation have lost all sense of loyalty to their flag and country, and regardless of consequent ces were determined to take advant- age of the dire necessity of the na- tion and wiring the last cent from the pocketbooks of their employers, ev- en though such action might mean disaster in the war into which we have been drawn.
 Such conclusion, we believe to be wrong. The great mass of Americans are loyal to the last drop of blood, and altho there is much disorder and some rioting, it must be taken into consideration that it requires but rel

They say it is unfair to the thousands who have gone to the front voluntarily to permit the slackers who can be spared to remain at home Admittedly, the bill is aimed largely at the French Canadians of Quebec. who have refused to volunteer, altho- it must necessarily apply to the en- tire country.
 It IS said that labor opposes the selective draft at this point and op- position comes from other sources than from Quebec. Sir Wilfrid Laur- fer, the former premier, wants the question submitted to the people, but the present government opposes; and the sentiment prevails that it would be rejected at the polls. The press, however, appears to be generally sup porting it, and some very fine speech es are being made in favor of it in parliament.
 The outcome of the fight will be interesting as showing whether Can ada feels as though it had made sac rifices enough Sn the war-also as showing whether the conservatives will be able to retan control of the government.

YOUNG MEN MUST
 GET OPPORTUNITY

LONDON, Aug. 2.-"The problems which will face the British govern ment when the war comes to an end will be far more difficult than the carrying on of the war;" says a state ment from Bonar Law in discussing the charter of the new British Trade Corporation"
 What is needed for the develop ment of the trade of the country" says MT. Bonar Law, lis that there should be some method by which character should be regarded as an asset and as security. There should be some means by which young men without the capital of their older competitors should have a chance of getting the credit which would en- able them to establish new lines of business, and in that way help the development of the trade of the coun- try.

atively few men in the community to create the impression that the whole population is disloyal.
 In Seattle there are more than 300. O.OO0 people. There is now in force strike in which probably less than 5000 men are taking part. These men are seeking the assistance of the shipyard employees Tn an effort to gain their point. If they are success full and the shipyards are forced to close, it may be that the national government will be forced to step in and take drastic measures for the welfare of the nation. In that event martial law would be declared and Seattle would be heralded as a place to be avoided, a disloyal community, a disgrace to the nation, even though only a few of the 300,000 persons were directly responsible for the dis orders.
 To those who have doubts of the response with which the call to arms has been met with by the nation, and the enthusiasm with which the work of war is being carried on, it is sug- gested that they sec the news pie lures shown at the local theatres in which a glimpse of the great outside is pictured.
 There is nothing the matter with the country. The American people today are as loyal as ever and ready to fight to the last in order to win the war for the human race into which we are embarked. It is true we have our slackers; we have men who value a dollar above their coun- try; we have men who love a prin- ciple greater than the flag which floats over them; but thank God, they are few, and the great, grand marjority are simple loyal Ameri- cans.-Anchorage Times.

AMERICAN PRISONER
 MAKES HIS ESCAPE

NEW YORK, Aug. 2.-Held pris- oner three years in German de- tention camp at Luxemburg, despite his protest that he was an American citizen, Dr. A. M. Mars, editor of L. Avenir, of San Francisco, who has arrived here, said he escaped to Hol- land, plying his captors with drugs while they were intoxicated and stealing an officers uniform. A Uni ted States consul in Holland, Dr.. Mars declared, aided him in reach ing Spain.
 Dr. Mars said the treatment ac- corded French and English prisoners is extremely harsh.
 Dr. Mars, who was born in Paris, is a naturalized American citizen. He was arrested by German authorities three years ago while in that coun- try.
 Prisoners suffered greatly from lack of proper food, Dr. Mars said. A substitute the Germans called "homlen," made of potato peelings, grass and flour, which was not fit food for animals, was served to the prisoners, he asserted.
 Dr. Mars said he was treated well by the Germans when they learned he was physician and he was put in charge of the health of the camp by General Won Gotch.
 The English prisoners, Dr. Mars declared refused to work and the se- verity of their treatment was in creased. The French prisoners fared better.
