Something for Gastineau
 Channel Advertisers to Consider

Those who advertise do so to reach the people to tell the people that they are in business and what they have to sell.
 The best advertising medium is that which reaches the most people by the quickest and most direct route.
 The best authorities on advertising agree that the best medium for reaching the people directly and quickly is the daily newspaper.
 The best daily newspaper medium IS the news paper of largest circulation and the one which reach es the people quickest after its publication. It is ceded that the evening newspaper is the one that reaches its readers freshest from the press. People have more time to read evening papers than morning papers. In the morning the average reader is crowd ed for time in which to get at the days work. The reading time is in the evening. In the evening the fresh paper is that which comes off the press at the close of the days activities with the events of the day chronicled The popularity of the evening paper is demonstrated by the fact that leads in circula ton and advertising patronage everywhere. The lead ing evening paper in the United States has more than 3OO,O ,OOO more subscribers than the leading morning paper and more than 100000 more than the leading Sunday paper l
 The farther West one goes the greater IS the advantages of the evening paper over the morning.
 Therefore, circulation being even, the evening paper is by far the best advertising medium offered anybody who desires to reach the public.
 SOME CIRCULATION FIGURES
 The circulation of THE EMPIRE is not only the largest in Alaska, but it is than double that of any other newspaper published in the Territory. It has passed the 2,500 mark-it covers all of South eastern Alaska.

AMERICA SHOULD
PROTECT BALKAN

Amsterdam, Sept. 16-American
control or supervision of the Balkans
Is advocated by the Bulgarian news
paper Mir, in a long editorial which
says in part:
cans alone are in position to form a
true appreciation of the situation In
the Balkans They are disinterest-
ed and well acquainted with local con-
ditions, and are in position to give
everybody his due. Having such a
knowledge Of the Ba1gan peninsula,
they ought to have the moral will to
exert their authority on their allies
in the interests of justice and democ-
racy in the Balkans.
I'VE do not ask that America should
take our side and that she should pro-
tect us. We desire that she should
take the defence of oppressed rights
in our countries and that she should
become an impartial judge between
US and her allies. We desire that
she should create situation in the
Balkans which will be- in agreement
with the principle Of national unfit
cation, international Justice, and true
democracy. We would like to see
the United States exerting their NOR
al influence not only where their ma
teria1 interests are affected but also
where moral truth and sacred Justice
call out to them. Devastated Mace
donia cries for Justice to all the
world. Can America remain a silent
witness when other countries are en-
deavoring to subjugate Macedonia ?''

conserved sealing interests in COM
mon. The United States engaged a
staff of scientists to make close in
vestigation. When the five years
closed season on seals expired in Au-
gust. 1917. the Alaska seal herd-the
most valuable in the world-had null
tiplied many times In number, scien-
tito care had produced a. Amer pelt.
valuable blue foxes were induced to
herd on the islands, and the financial
returns to the United States Treasury
began to run into hundreds OF thou
sands Of dollars annually.
Under government regime only the
prime fur pelts will be taken. There
win be permitted no sacrifice Of fe-
males, no billings of young: no young
left to starve and perish. The dicta-
tea of ,commen sense and compassion
will rule
An interesting point was made by
DR.. Smith in the course of converse
ton. Formerly all Alaska sealskins
were. sailed, shipped to London to be
dressed and dyed. The American buy
er had to travel to London, pay all
expenses OF the journey, and pay also
a duty of 30 per cent on the sealskins
coming back to America. Hence their
former high price. Now all this work
v
war started the head Of the big Funs-
ten Fur Auctions-where Government
sealskins and other pelts are sold
just picked UP the leading seal dress
ing and dyeing establishment of Lon
don, and transferred 1t en- bloc to St.
Louis. By agreement with Wash
ington fifteen experts came over to
establish the industry here. Now
there are over 200 skilled workers in
this formerly foreign trade; and Alas
ka seals1kins are caught, cured. dressed,
dyed and machined. and sold right
here at home.
Next summer will see the resunp-
ton Of sealing again on large scale:
and DR. Smith believes that there
will be a sufficiency Of pelts for trade
requirements. The few that have been
sold recently brought such good prices
that the Commissioner is convinced
that there will be solid support for
them in the market. With the in
creased catch prices will be more
reasonable; and he is Of the opinion
that within a short time a genuine
Alaska sealskin coat or wrap will De

woman as ever before.
Furthermore. the good doctor re-
marked, the woman who wears a seal

for she will thereby be adding dol
lars to the national treasury, and aid
freedom.

PREMIER COWED
FIERY COSSACKS

Stockholm, via London Oct. To-
Premier Kerensky played fearlessly
with death at the Moscow conference
and won by his sheer, unfiinching
nerve.
He stood on a platform unarmed,
facing three drunken Cossack officers,
red with anger. and twice flung the
taunt sCowards.' in their faces, while
the vast audience. breathIess, fearfully
awaited for their revolver shots to
stretch Russia's man Of the hour
bleeding on the platform.
Premier Kerensky presided at the
conference. On the final night of the
meeting a group of Cossack officers
appeared as usual In the box reserved
for Gen. Kornilofr on the left side OF
the stage. Kornilon himself was not
present. The officers who 1ounged In
his box gave every evidence of tntoxi-
cation.
On the stage behind Kerensky sat a
thousand prominent Russians. Three
of the Cossacks in the box repeatedly
interrupted the speakers as the meet
ing proceeded. From the stage al
most directly below them Kerensky
repeatedly appealed for quiet. The
Cossacks ignored him. Several
speeches were interrupted with wild
bursts Of laughter.
Finally a Cossack private soldier, a
member of the Soviet (Petrograd
Council of Workmen and Soldfers)
spoke. He declared the Cossacks were
democrats and mot. slaves of their
Cossack masters The three officers
took instant umbrage All arose.
One shouted: THAT sounds like
German talk; no real Cossack speaks
thusl''
Kerensky stood up. He looked
coldly at the flushed faces of the Of
icers and remarked acidly:
THE soficer who addresses a man
like that on such an occasion as this
is a coward, =
Two more coasack officers arose.
| One shouted:
II agree with my fellow officers, and
we are ready to give any one satisfac-
ton. No one can call me a cow
ard
The three hurriedly left the box and
fastened down stairs toward the door
to the stage. Several friends follow
ed them. begging the lurching trio to
return
Though Kerensky is carefully
guarded at All IlDlSSs none OF MS pr1-
vate soldier guards dared bar the
progress OF these three officers. The
trio went on, forcing the guards aside.
They turned back from the stage
door and went down the aisle toward
Kerensky. The Premiersa back was
turned to them.
The drunkest of the three was not
more than 20 feet distant when q
high officer arose from his seat and
ordered them back. They had to
obey. Two of the three later reap
pcared in their box.
At this juncture came the usual
midnight recess of the conference.
Kerensky, not knowing his narrow
escape, passed the press tables, his
face set in stern lines and went slow
ly to the royal green room, where
Catherine Breshk ovskaya, grand
mother Of the revolution awaited
him with hot coffee.
Suddenly across the press tables to-
ward the green room lurched the
three Cossack officers, small group
of their friends vainly endeavoring to
pull them back. A fourth Cossack
came to the press tables declaring ex-
eited1y that Kerensky had called the

DENOUNCES GERMANS
IN FRONT THEIR GUNS

/ With the British Armies in F1and-
sers. Oct. 16-How one British officer
walked across no mans land to stand
in front lof German trench and call
ed its defenders swine and other
names because they were violating the
battlefield code of honor by shooting
down stretcher bearers was told yes
terday.
1t happened in the Poe1capelle sec
tor. The hottest fighting of Field
Marshal Haig's drive had centred
there particularly about the brewery.
Stretcher bearers were constantly be-
ing shot by the Germans and CEN
sus revealed that 100 of these MINIS
terihg forces had been shot out of $50
on duty. This particular officer saw
three out of group Of four. shot
down before him.
The officer stepped out from shell
ter, picked up Red Cross flag, sup
posedly inviolate by international
agreement. and deliberately marched
toward the German lines.
The Germans, utterly astonished,
stared at him. Standing alone in front
of their guns he read them heated
lecture in their own language.
"On1y swine he concluded, ''are
capable of shipping REQ Cross men en-
gagged in rescuing sufferers from the
mud"
Then he turned around, his back
disdainfully toward the enemy's guns,
and slowly walked back to his own
lines The Germans were so taken
aback that they didn't fire until a
contemptuously defiant wave of the
off1cers hand marked his last appear
anee from under cover.

One shot would have sent the au-
dience in panicky. pell-neu dash
from the hall. In the streets outside
thousands Of troops kept back crowd
of 10000.
I The audience in the building sat
restless, not knowing the cause of the
delay in reconvening. Those who did
know sat breathless, wondering if
Kerensky would dare come out again.
Oficers herded the drunken Cos
sacks back into their box and the
dressing room behind 1t, and placed
a guard over them. But the guards
were SO wrought up they were In
capable Of anything. ~ had left my
hat in the little room back of the box

pointing toward the box.
$. A moment later Kerensky, inscrut-
ably cool of face and demeanor,
walked quietly to the stage. At that
moment the Cossack officers hurried
into their box. scant dozen men
stood near Kerensky.
The Premier saw the Cossacks. He
did not hesitate. With grim haste he
faced the audience and rang the bell
reconvening the meeting.
Not one of those on the stage who
ha ID witnessed the affair expected it to
terminate otherwise than in tragedy.
Kerensky, rising, said simply:

speaker 'cowards,' and repeat that

had won.
