WAR WILL END in
NOVEMBER OF 1918"
Interesting Prophecy Made by LATE
Young, Publisher and Editor OF
The Des MOines Capital

Col. Lafayette Young, editor of the
Des Moines Capital and former U. S
senator from Iowa, student of po-
litical economy whose extensive trav-
els in this country and foreign lands
has given him a breadth of vision ac-
corded to comparatively few men and
who two years ago spent several
months in Europe visiting Germany
and all the countries of the allies ar
rayed against the central powers, re-
Gently penned the following editorial:
The Capital predicts that the pres
ent world war will end about the
middle of November, 1918. The
British, American and wrench sub
marine destroyers will have the sub
marine under control within three or
four months from this time. The
prediction is based on the courage
and genius of American naval con-
structors and officers and the genius
of American inventors. Every poison
has its antidote and it is unreasonable
to suppose that the submarines can
not be successfully dealt with.
The German submarine has been
relied upon by the Germans as a
means of starving Great Britain,
bringing England to her knees" as
they call it. All the Germans as a
means of starving Great Briton,
bringing England to her knees"
as they call it. All the Germans in
Germany hate all the English in
England. therefore, the starving of
Great Britain would be Joy as we'll
as a German triumph to all the
Germans.
The people of Germany will
demand that the war shall end when
the submarine is converted into a
useless thing. The rank and file in
Germany now keep a score on the
submarine work. Every time
German submarine sinks a Britishh
vessel the German rank and file mark
off another one and Immediately
announce that only certain number
of British ships remain and that
within three months England will be
starving. But the Germans will not
surrender when the submarines go
out of business, nor will England and
the United States and France ston
at that point. The submarine and
mine destroyer of the allies will
brush away all Instructions and the
British and American navies will go
in after the German navy. Then
there will be sea fight such as all
seas of the world have never known
and the German navy will be practic-
ally destroyed.
Even then the Germans will not
nuit fighting. The brave young
German soldiers will be on the west
ern line yet and the western line
will then be destroyed by the allies.
These great wars will end at Antwerp
In other words. these wars will end
where the Imperial German govern
ment began II in Belgium. 1t will

Presi- den- James Godfrey, who recently arrived from New York, expresses himself as much pleased with the improvements now under way, and will greatly facilitate the develop nent of this rich mine when com QIeted.
 In Going development work on the kenneCOtt-TjoseYig property, 8 large body of high grade copper ore was struck at the face of the tunnel, and this mine will also be 8 good producer. .r

DIRECTING EXPORTS

The President has coined 9 phrase which will meet with uni yersaI approval. To direct, not to caeck' exports will be the pur- pose Of the new board which he has appointed under the provisions of the espionage bill. This means the. such food products as go from this country to Europe will be guided into channels which will en- sure tbaL they reach our friends and allies and not our enemies; that all the world will thus receive a strik'ns demonstration of the vital position which the United states holds h a war crisis like the pres ent; and that this position will be strengthened as against the day when war shall be over. This course has been adopted without reference to the foOd-control bill.

CROOK HARSIFUh TO
 INTERESTS OF ALASKA

The nations of all the world are clamoring for additional merchant ships to transport their commodities The United states government is claiming a tremendous shiRbuilding program to meet tremendous de- .mand. Tonnage is at the greatest premium in the worlds history. ships are paying for themselves in one or two voyages acSoss the At lantlc.
 Desuite these conditions there is one corner of the earth where ships come and So without their cargo space being comp.etely filled, And that country is Alaoka.
 The established lines have con- tinued to operate on regular sched- uIe despite alluring inducements to enter more lucrative tielus with aI least some of the vessels they now oprea,e to Alaska. And there would be no dagDer of any change in their schedue now were it not for a singular handicap that has been imposed upon them.
 At the very moment that the United Staes government is straln- 'ug every resource to obtain trans rorts 10 carry troops and supplies 10 Europe, it is permitting the trans ocrt Crook to operate between An chorage and Seattle, presumably be- cause 1t is needed tQ transport gov ernment railway supplies. But the truth is there is more than enough space on the ships of the regular lines to transport all the supplies that the government can use. Because the Crook ts carrying all the government supplies, the ships of the established lines are coming to Alaska with only partly filled holds, .
 As a result there is a grave pos SibiIity that the companies may re' duce their sailngs to Alaska. The Crook is operating to Anchorage only temporarily and will be re, moved as soon as the railroad is built, It not before. On the other hand the steamshlR companies have permanently established conneo lions with Alaskan ports.
 Once the companies remove any vessels from the Alaska service, il will be years before they are re, turned because of the big earnings offered elsewhere. In view of th fact that the temporary operations of the Crook will cause 8 reduc- ton in the sailing schedules oi the regular lines, it will be to the best interest of Alaskans il he Crook is removed.
 Ketcnikan, Juneau, Skagway, Cor dOya, Valdez and Seward are just as interested in seeing present schedules maintained as is Anchor age, for they all would be equally affected. DouRtIess if the facts are presented to the government at Washington the situation will be quickly remedied, but the people ot Alaska should not delay in making tke facts known.

Dandruff Soon
Ruins The Hair

Girls-if you want plenty of thick,
beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by all
means get rid of dandruf,. for it will
starve your hair and ruin it if you don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve
it, then you destroy it entirely. To do
this, get about four ounces of ordinary
liquid arvon; apply it at night when re-
firing; use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all, of your
dandruf will be gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace of it.
You will find, too, that all itching and
digging Of the scalp viii stop. and your
hair will look and feel a hundred times
better You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and four
ounces is all you will need. no matter
how much dandruff you have. This
simple remedy never fails.
