BERLIN PAPERS SAY
MUST CLING TO BELGIUM

COPENHAGEN, Aug. 1.-THE
Berlin Lokal Anzeiger, commenting
on the recent proceedings in the Brit
ish House of Commons, says:
"Mr. Asquith's inquiry as to whe-
Their we were ready to restore Bel
gums full freedom can only be meant
as a rhetorical question, for Mr.. AS
quith must know that, aside from a
handful of dreamers, nobody thinks
of handing Belgium again TO England
and France"
The Catholic organ, the Cologne
Volks Zeitung, attempts to prove that
the retention of Belgium and the an
nexation of regions in the east are
indispensable to that protection of
the German frontiers which Chancel-
lor Michaelis specified.
The Tages Zeitung adopts this
enthusiastically Some of the radical
newspapers, on the other hand, seek
TO give the impression that the gov
eminent is so bound by the reichstag
resolution that the entente allies have
only to propose peace without an
nexations or indemnities to obtain it.

This is often effective after q fish has

When q rise comes it will probably

Do you know what you are eating

ing gallo acid, one Of the most neces-
sary elements in human economy. You
are eating sugar in the most assimila-
BILE form. combined carbon, hydrogen
and oxygen caught and imprisoned
from the sunshine. You are eating al
bumen in its most available state. You
are eating gum allied to the fra
grant medicinal gums of Araby." You
are eating phosphorus in the only form
in which it is available as a source Of
all brain and nerve energy. In addi-
ton to all these, you are drinking the
purest water and eating the most
hea!thful and desirable fiber for the re-
quired "roughness" in food elements.

A Fine Body Of Fighters and Al~sys
Ready For Battle.


Ready For Battle.
United States marines are always to
be found where trouble breaks out II
the scene is In reach Of transports OF
warships. They are quartered on every
first class ship Of the navy, ready to go
ashore as infantry. as heavy or light
artillery or In machine gun squads.
There is not and never was a better
body Of fighting men ashore or afloat
than the American marines. Their ira
dition of efficiency and fearlessness Is
one Of the finest. Usually they 60
against the enemy when heavily out
numbered and often are required to
hold their own in the midst Of hostile
populations until bluejackets and the
army can be sent to back them up. II
is only natural that the most adventur-
GUS spirits from every quarter Of tho
world, soldiers Of fortune who want to
be always In a good fight, should have
been attracted to a force which Offers
so many opportunities Of the kind.
No company, no squad. Of United
States marines has ever shown the
white feather. They are Of the cream
Of military nobility. On their caps
they wear q little metal globe and the
words "Semper Fidelis go wher-
ever the flag Ia carried, where trouble
is thickest, and they are the ever faith
full legion which never fails us.-Provt

The Nome daily nugget., 1917-02-28

Il is probable from present indica- tions that nearly all, if not all, of the Alaska appropriations will be made before the end of the week. l. may chance that money for he Alaska road commission may not be inserted in the senate although united efforts have been made in the last u1ee or four days by Alaskans to influence Senator Chamberlain and other members of the upper house house to obtain this fund for the com ng year, The largest appropriation ot all however for the government rasioad seems likely to be made. This sum will be something like ten and a half million and will insure a vlgor- ous prosecution of road building from both the Nenana and coast ends. With this money available 1t vould seem that all should go well in the consa uction of the line.
 There is this to be considered, how ever. In Alaska it is almost q safe bet that anything will be done later ratGer than sooner than the appoint ed time. Rarely does a boat leave or arrive on time. It is more likely to be from one day to a week late in going or coming. It is likewise true that a shaft is put to bedrock in long CT time than was expected. l. seems that the weather and other national obstacles keep everything back to certain extent
 And so now 1t appears that i. will take more time to complete the rail road than was anticipated. Captain Frederick Mears, one of the commis- sioners, is quoted as saying that the road will not be finished until 1920 or 1921. This means that 1t will take two or three years longer than was planned when 1918 was set as the date for completing the main line. It now appears that the part of the system along Turnagain Arm. between Se- ward and Anchorage, will not be ready for operation until November 1918, instead of November, 1917, as

mise the reasons for such leniency. The act of :he council in giving the mayor the power to pardon and his immediate use of it speak for them selves, it is true. but they speak cold ly and the underlying motive can only be surmised. If there was only hu- man sympathy at the bottom of i., it would appear to be maudlin sympathy and unwarranted by the conditions. The people of this community some time back indulged in severe stric- lures against the federal authorities for activities which resulted in driv- ing women denizens of the under world to seek homes all over the city and the municipal government was declared to be capable of dealing with the question adequately. Is this late development sample of the city's method of handling the so-called ne- cessary evil? This paper will discuss the matter more fully after further investigation.
