ANOTHER APPEAL FOR THE RELIEF
 0FTHE BELGIAN SUFFERERS. COLONEL
 ROOSEVELT EXPRESSES VIEWS

sit idle War-torn England and France have given largely. Brave little Hol- land has cared within her own borders for hundreds of thousands of refu- gees. The rest of the world has spent $250, 1000 for Belgium We have contributed only nine millions. Is this enough to make us think that we have done our duty? We say with unctu- ous self-satisfaction that we have been kept out of war" We chuck1e be- cause in 1916 we sold five billions worth of products in Europe. Are our souls routed? Can we see only the dollar sign in the sky? What of our souls if we continue deaf to the cry ing of a gallant nation, threatened with extinction through the loss of its first born? Can any man of high and gem erous nature having been told tll8 facts, continue to be indifferent?
 The West has done much, but it has not done enough. I appeal to the men of the West to follow the Rocky Noun tain Club. I appeal to the women of the West to take the thought of wreck ed and tormented Belgium to their hearts.
 I would like to see every school house in the West collection for the Rocky Mountain Club-Hoover Fund
 l should like to see every Sunday School interested.
 I should like to know that every pull pit in the West was ringing with the story.
 I should like to see in every city and village a central agency collecting and forwarding relief to MT. William B. Thompson, the Treasurer of the Fund, No 65, w. 44th Street.
 I should like to know that every mining superintendent had addressed his men telling them the story and asking them to contribute each pay day a regular sum, following the example of the miners in South Africa who are giving ten per cent, of their wages.
 I should like to see on every cattle range a Rocky Mountain Club Fund.
 should like to see every newspaper open it's columns to the cause.
 I should like to see every social gath ering wind up with a Belgian collect ion.
 I should like to see the West on fire over Belgium's wrongs and Belgium's needs
 cannot say more. I should be ashamed to say less.

DISTRICT COURT SUSTA|NSEVERY POINT MADE BY
 ATTY. GRIGsBY
Attorney Rusgard's Contentious Declared Extremely Faulty And Not Applicable.
ORDERS CERTIFICATE
 ISSUED TO SENATOR
Gives Exhaustive Opinion Gov ering up Thirty-Six Legal, Pages. Ruling Meets Apro- val.

JUNEAU, March 20.---At ten thirty this morning, Judge Jen- nings gave an exhaustive opinion covering up some thirty-six pag- es in the case of election of Del egate from Alaska.
 The court sustained every point made by Attorney General Geo. B. Grigsby, and declared Chas. A. Sulzer, elected Delegate to congress from Alaska.
 In recapitulation, the court ruled that the canvassing board should not have counted the re- turns from either of the follow ing precincts: Choggiung, Nus. hagak, Bonnifield, Utica, Deer ing an Vault. In Reference to Attorney Rustgard's pleading in opposition to the election of Sul- ger as delegate, the court found that the pleadings discolsed nothing but defects about other returns. Wickersham had six ty-four hundred and ninety votes to Sulzer's sixty-four hun dred and forty votes, counting the above precincts. According to the courts decision, these are thrown out, giving Sulzer a maj ority of nineteen votes.
 A remarkable feature of the decision is that every part of Grigsby's opinion given to the canvassing board was upheld by the court.
 The general opinion in all polit- ical circles here is that the de- cision is final and that no appeal will be filed in~order to carry the fight into congress.
