NO SLACKE,RS HERE.

We are willing to wager that there will be no stacking i'll Alaska when the youths of this territory are called out to fight for Uncle Sam. The northand does not breed such men. The free life of this new country de velops the sense of manhood and obligation. Uncle Sam will find the young men of Alaska willing and ready to go as soon as they are called
 And it is gratifying to note that the oD jectors to the draft Outside are not of the class of people who make up the citizenship of our great country. The greatest demon stration against military service was made in Oklahoma by negro tenants and Indians, in spired to take their laWleSs course by law breaking whites of the Oklahoma hill district.
 Most of the objectors i'll other parts ot the country appear to belong to the small per centage of illlterates we have with us and others who have been induced to take their unpatriotic stand by pro-German sympathiz- CTS And of course, it was to be expected that the l. w. WIS would be found opposing anything that smacked of loyalty and patr- otisn.

RELIEF AT LAST.

The most important news story of the day Is that the administration food control bill, which ha; been before congress for many weeks, has been passed by tie >clotc aHG goes to President Wilson for his signature today.
 The passage of this much needed 1cgis- Iation will be hailed with acclaim all over the nation as a delivcrancc from the alarm ing increase in prices. The people of the country are willing to pay a war tax in the shape of advanced prices ill the cost of com modities but they do not want to pay tribute to food hogs and spectators. When they are sure that they are paying no more than war conditions demand, they will be satis- fled, and will assume the burden ungrudg ingly.
 Relief is expected almost at once. The fact that a law to control the price of com modities has been passed will tend to cause tumble in fictitious and inflated quotations
 The law should be of vast help to Alaska Food speculation has been a faVorite get-rich- quick scheme in these parts in years gone by and is still being played. Under government control the cost of living should decrease ma teraly throughout the territory.

THI. SHOE FITS.

Thompson has "hoercd bull" He has shown d yellow streak aS wide a~ the Muir glacier aud a~ disgraceiul a, the mud ol his own Richardson Rut The north admircS a fighter br he in the right or wrong, but de- ~pi~c> the piclul whine oi a whcipng liar, who set, up miserable wall of distress a, soon d, anyone reminds him oi his own ,kuIk- ing past.
 To prevent further truths being told about him, he has brought libel action against the owner of The Citizen. This in itself has been enough to expose his coWardicc to the people oi Fairbanks But he has not been content to let the matter rest there and to al low the court 10 settle the case
 In his statement of yesterday he makes wiiu and unprinciplcd mi>statemcnts direct ed against the publisher ol The Citizen in an attempt 10 justify his own coWardIy action.
 Thompson declares that The Citizen does not pay taxes to the support oi the commun- ty, This is a dastardly lie, maliciousIy spo- kcn The owner of this paper has his tax receipts on file at his office and is not ashamed to show them to anyone who may believe in the charge oi tax dodgin@' manufactured in the addlcd brain oi our truth-hating con- temporary.
 The NcWs-Ainer editor also attempts to justify his craven action by concocting the ialschood that the publisher of The Citizen himself set q precedent by causing the arrest oi another Fairbanks editor for criminal libel
 This also is the wild wall of a man who finds himself sinking in his own bouomless Pit of Cowardicc The records will show that AIr. Ca,kcy'> name was not signed to any of the papers ill the case referred to.
 Thompson ayers that he cannot stand be- ing called a traitor, even by inference. This paper did not call him that. The shoe seems to fit him, so let him wear it. If he wishes to assume that titIe that's up to him.
 In conclusion we have an apology to make to our readers We believed that after Thompson went into court and started crimi- nal libel action against the editor of the pa per, he would be man enough to let the mat ter rest in the hands of the court. We were willing to drop the matter until the verdict is in. But not being satisfied with this, he continues to heap ialsehoods upon Us, and we feel obliged to cram these lies down his throat, libel or no libel. And we are not go- ing to "holcr buIl,' either. Not by a long shot.
