NOME TO HAVE A GOOD YEAR
 SAYS CROSBY
Rainy Season Promotes Prosperity in the Sew
 ard Peninsula Country
DEMOCRATS FOR SULZER

There will be a good gold output and plenty of prosperity at Nome this year on account of the rainy season they have had, according to Attorney General George B. Grigs. by, who returned today from busi- ness trip to his old home.
 MT Grigsby was a returning pas senger on the Victoria and trans ferred to the Northwestern. He had spent several weeks at Nome, where he went on one of the first sailings from Seattle.
 Political Meeting Exaggerated.
 "The meeting of the Nome Demo cratic Club in which the resolutions approving the administration of Gov, J. F. A. Strong were discussed and passed was very much misrepresent- ed in the dispatches from ....ome,' said MT. Grigsby. "In the first place it was not called to discuss the Gov ernorship matter at all, and there had been no attempt to get all the Democrats out except by those who favored the appointment of the Gov ernor 1 had made no attempt to work up meeting, or to nurse public sentiment on the question at all
 "Wickershamites and some of the strong adherents of Gov Strong had by plain fabrications and repeated assertions convinced some of the Democrats at Nome that the Demo cratic organization was in close league with the Shackleford Republicans. touch with governmental conditions away from their home, and they feel that they should stand by a public official who was a resident of their town for so many years. When the first vote was presented therefore, it showed 27 for Gov. Strong and 22 against him. Later in the evening when the Strong men admitted 12 new members the vote stood 8 for Strong and P against him. In Nome the action of the Club was not regarded as seriously as it was represented to some Of the people outside of that section.
 For Suizer Also.
 Do not think that the action of the Democratic Club in this matter indicates opposition to Delegate Sul- ger The people of Nome as those in other sections of Alaska think Suizer is making rattling good Delegate"
 Mr Grigsby said that he found public sentiment at Seward, Valdez, COrdoYa and elsewhere in the Third Division very strongly in favpr of the attitude of Delegate 5ulzer Ma tional Committeeman Donohoe and the Democratic organization.

RUSSIA NoTiYET LOST.
British Prsss Hopeful While Admitting
SSriousness of Situation.

4 SSOsIV0ott0oOtV W s0sNO0tbOUst
London, Nov. 9. - The situation in
Russia. the Daily News urges, should
not be taken too tragically. It points
out that Petrograd is not Russia and
advises the outside world to await de-
velopments. which, it says, can not
fail to be swift and dramatic.
Nevertheless" the News adds, 'this
situation, coupled with the continued
advance of the enemy in italy, consti-
tutes a sufficiently black outlook. The
allies position has suffered a shock
which it would be futile to ignore, and
grave issues are hanging in the bal
ance. We hope the worst will not be
realized, but we must prepare for it,
and the best that can be looked for will
leave us seriously affected.
"The burden Of the war falls inevita-
bly, more than ever upon the shoulder
of this country, France and the United
States and the duration Of the war
would seem prolonged indefinitely"
The, News concludes:
"Stern times are before us, but we
shall survive the ordeal if we are faith
iui 10 ouI cause-a cause worth living
and dying for. Our powers are not ex-
hausted and behind our resources are
those of the United States which will
be used without limit for the achieve
ment Of victory"
The Graphic anticipated Russo
German peace, with the probability
that Germany would eventually get
control of Russia's resources. 1t adds:
."rhe western allies are now thrown
entirely on their own resources and
must face the necessity of greater
effort than any yet made"

RN ARMY JOINS MAX||NAL|STS

The Alps heretofore have been the
traditional boundary between the
northern Teutonic and the southern
Latin races. The Austro- Germans
recognize the Alpin boundary, except
for Trenat and Trieste.
Now for the first time the Teutonic
forces are occupying territory in the
Friuli plains, which are the eastern
most part Of Venetia and age-long
possessions OF the Latins
Such an invasion strikes at the very
heart Of the principle Of nationality
and also thrusts a Teutonic wedge
southwark along the Adriatic.
This brings up the grave question
Of whether Germany will finally Sc
cure territorial lodgment. with ports
and naval bases on the Adriatic, tHls
realizing her aim to become a Med
iterranean as we'll as North sea
power, unless the allies turn her back
from the F'riulian plains.
This would seem to be warning to
the allies that no time Is to be lost
in reinforcing, concentrating and CO.
ordinating.
