Dear Soldier Man
AS l sit here amidst all this WON
deriul American life l cannot easily
picture you way out there in Hawaiia.
In some ways it must be wonderful
out there, from all the tales / hear,
but l know you must as you say miss
the 'honest-to-goodness' people.
Everything here now has a military
air which is so fascinating and l can
hardly keep away from the reserve
training camps here at Fort Myer.
i went over to the graduation last
Monday when 1.S0O new officers were
ushered into the new army and /
have never seen anything so thrilling
in my whole life.
Everyone here seems to be doing
their bit to help the soldiers in Europe,
and ! think you deserve a share too,
50 1 am writing this in the hopes of
cheering you just bit. 1t may help
you to know that someone back here
in America is thinking of you and
waiting for you to answer her letter.
shall be SO interested to hear
about your life out there and il there
is any little thing that 1 could do
TO make life more pleasant for you l
snail be only too glad do it,
After 1 hear from you l can tell
what you are interested In and it will
be much easier to write. This is Just
a start. however, SO you will excuse

CHIEF CARRANZA'S NIECE

Apparently First Chief" General Carranza does not fear any serious trouble between the United States and Mexico, for he has a hostage in New York in the person of his pretty niece. Orilla, who is spending the winter there. She nas just graduat ed from school in san Antonio, Texas. and has come to New York to a finishing off, school.
 Miss Oralia Carranza is a decided favorite. She belongs to the highest class in Mexico, has a charming man ner as well as disposition. She is very fond of pets, especially dogs.
 The young woman says she knows nothing of the political situation in Mexico, and shows the good taste not to talk about the turbulent state of affairs always prevailing in her home country.

terests proft but labor will also re- ceive the benefits resulting from em- ployment as many hands will be- required to bring the harbor to com pletion.
 In numerous ways Nome will de- rive q benefit as a result of the gov ernment's bounty; and not alone Nome, but each of the several coast towns which look to Nome for their supplies will receive some beneficial returns, either in the shape of a low ering of freight costs or the saving of time in intercoastal communication, as a result of the harbor construction. Either directly or indirectly practical ly every one in the district will re- ceive some form of profit from the contemplated improvement.
 Nome is, therefore, to be congrat- ulated at the successful termination
 of the long continued efforts of the Chamber of Commerce to enlist gov ! ernment attention in the obvious harbor needs. AS remarked before, save and except that congress grant
 us sufficient funds to complete a com prehensive road system, no more bene- | fic4al reward could possibly crown the efforts of the citizens of Nome
 and its representative organization than has now been achieved. 1 Considering what the harbor means l to the community and district, the
 whole hearted thanks of the public ] is due the Chamber of Commerce, which has labored so industriously and
 well.

CAUSE FOR coNeRATULATIoN.

The Nome Chamber of Commerce Is well entitled to the congratulations which are being showered on the members of that body over the sue cessful result of the long fight to se- cure harbor at the entrance of Snake river.
 The passage of the Nome harbor appropriation by congress means whole lot to the city and the terri tory generally. Indeed, we can think of but one greater improvement that could be granted by congress for the benefit of this section of Alaska than is involved in the widening and deep ening of the river mouth to permit of safe and continuous passage for the coasting fleet upon which depends the greater part of the commercial intercourse between Nome and the smaller settlements along the coast.
 The one exception would be road system reaching to all parts of the territory A system of roads covering at least the more important districts is the one great desiteratum, not only in his section bu In every portion of Alaska, with the possible exception of the Juneau district, which is already well provided in this respect.
 But, in the absence of roads, the projected harbor is undoubtedly the greatest public improvement that could be affected as far as this sec- ton is concerned.
 Not alone will it work a cOnsdera- hle improvement in business condi- tions but will also save many thou- sansd of dollars due to the frequent and overseas traffic, in addition to greatly reducing the not infrequent losses occasioned by the casting ashore of vessels and lighters in the sudden, furious storms which sweep along the coast with remarkable frequency.
 Regarding of earler examples, the stranding of several vessels on tine bar and the maronn;ng of others with
 in the ilver bas'l during the pres ent week, much to the detriment of their owners or handlers, Is sufi- = cent evidence of the overwhelming need for an open channel into the safe waters of the inner basin.
 And this will now be provided by the passage of the $l05,000 appro- priation attached to the rivers and harbors bill
 It is also also apparent that Nome wtll profit considerably .in another way as result of harbor construc- tion, through the spending of large portion of the money provided by congress with the merchants and business men of the city.
 And not alone will the business in-
