Hereafter, he will be resident of Ketehikan. This is an instance where everybody gains but Juneau The United States gains the services of an able conscientious and hardworSing lawyer, Ketchikan gains as a resident one of the best of Alaska citi zens, and Mr. Holzheimer gains recognition for his ability as a lawyer, worth citizen and service to Alaska and the Democratic party.
 Mir. Holsheimer came to Juneau in the early summer of 1915 to establish himself lawyer He came he said. to escape politics. He had been SO active in politics in Seattle that he had all but ruined a large law practice which he had been ten years
 in creating He had served as chairman of the Demo craric City Central Committee in Seattle, VcePresi- dent and President of the King County Democratic Club and as a member of the Executive Committee of the King County Democratic Committee. He was the Democratic nominee for Attorney-GeneIal of the State of Washington in 1908. When District Attorney smiser appointed him AssistantDlstrict Attorney Mr. Holzheimer was recognized as one of the very able members of the Juenau bar. He was active in the recent campaign as Secretary of the Democratic Dt visiona Committee.

FOREIGN TRADE FIGURES

The foreign trade Of the United States for the last calendar year reached the phenomenal figure of $7.SOOOO0OOO This is almost $2.OOOOOOOO0 in Of the figures for the previous year. It is than $2.OOOOO)OOO higher than the greatest record ever made by the United Kingdom and than $3.1OO. OOOOOO greater than the best year of Germany. Or, to use percentages it exceeds Great Britain's best year by over 70 per cent. and Germanys by 75 per cent In exports the United Kingdoms best year more than doubled and Germany's also surpassed by more than 100 per cent.
 IL is estimated that the fiscal year-the year end ing June 3owil show the American foreign commerce to have passed the eight billion mar6a record uu- dr amed Of year ago.
 In addition to this foreign commerce, 1t Is also shown that there has been tremendous increase iu domestic trade and traffic and financial transactions
 These figures show that the present American place ir the commerce Of the world is due solely to the circumstance that other countries have had less of it and thereby magniied the importance Of the immense commerce that the United States had before the outbreak of the They show that America actually increased her commerce by more than so per cent, and that it is being further ia creased time goes on.
 l. might be added that the foreign commerce of the country would have been much larger than it it had been for the lack Of ships and cars for transportation purposes This Is a defect that is being remedied a5 fast ship yards turn out ships and as fast car shops can build cars.

WHO SUPPLIES VILLA?

Representative Kahn of California appears to be of mn epouiring turn of mind. He desires to know the character and extent of the arms and munitions importation into Mexico, and also what goods wares and merchandise confiscated stolen by the armed
 forces of Mexico have been imported into this country
 There are many people besides the gentleman from California who would like to know more about that subject We know that at the time the Pershmg expedition came to a halt Villa fleeing with handful Of ragamutfns who were believed to nave scattered into the mountains.
 Six months later Villa appears with a force sui fcientlv well armed to drive the Carranza forces out of Chihuahua and keep them out long enough to secure an abundant store of loot and booty
 Where did Villa get the arms and the money which he must have secured in order to resume hos tites? If he has anything for sale as the result o his last raid, where is his market?
 Representative Kahn calls for a Congressional in' vestigation of this matter The result of an inyestt gaton might prove interesting to the general public and extremely embarrassing to these unknown inai'' duals who are trading with Villa and his cuthroatS Let's have it.

TO DETERMINE POWER OF TIE
 ARMY SHAFTS
Secretary of War Baker Now Studying the New
 Defense Act Which
 Has Much Power.
CURTAlLS FUNCTIONS

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1. - Secre- ,ary of War Baker has under con. sideration the status of the general staff of the army under the Nation ll Defense Act. He is convinced that before any progress can be made in 1crfccting the organization of the army the scope of authority of the general staff must be settled.
 Mr. Baker called upon Judge Ad- yocate General Crowder for q formal .uling and requested the general i;afr to submit to him a special re- port on this point. These papers Ire &cw before the Secretary.
 The National Defense Act appar- ently curtails the administrative functions of the general staff. The purpose of the law appears to be to nave the staff confino it's activities tO questions of military policy and .hc working out of military problems.
 In the provision curtail!ng the work of the staff is seen an echo of the row between Mag. Gen. Wood and Maj. Gen. Ainsworth, retired, while the former was chief of staff and the latter adjuant general.
 Former Representative James Hay Of Virginia. lately chairmGn of the committee on military affairs, took Cen. Aainsworth's side, and 1t has been hintcd that he was primarily responsible for the provision 8eparat- Ing the general staff from all admin istratiyc functions.
 Secretary Baker is understood to be studying the organization of Eur ope2n armies in connection with the problem of defining the status of the general staff. It is expected the decision will have Gn important ef- feet on the organization of the army under the new law, and on lcgisla- ton which may be considered at the coming session of Congress.

 Yukon Territory is leading Canada on the per canita contributions to the Red Cross fund Figures inst complied in Toronto reveal the fact Ihe lgurtS show that Yukon must have gwen rom tne , Of the war until the first of Ocytober last about two dollars per capita to Red Cross fund alone 10 say nothing of the extraordinary contributed in Ike proportion to other patriotic funds at the same l.C The Toronto statistics put the luKohS popUIa.ion down as enumerated at the last census put "t'o"s for some decrease and also for quite nunOer In that figure being EsklmOS and remote lnui'hS "'o never give cent the white population of Yukon must have given fully if not more than two dollars per capita This contribution will be more appreciates on scanning the donations Of other provinces In the Ontario being the next largest contributor per capita has given just about 50 cents per person m e same time. and htat in face Of the lact Ontaro IS one of the largest beuefiCiarieS of the war rom G enormous orders being plPced in muniuon anu m other factories while Yukon IS so remote "' "O' " get a dollar in war orders. ~ ,
 Ouebec in contrast to Yukon's two dollars. has given since the war began total of $lOOOOO. or only five cents Dcr capita since the war began. Quebec has over million people. and were She 70 give !" proportion to Yukon her contribution would be $7'
 Saskatchewan has given little better than 50 cents per capita, while Manitoba, Brtsh ColunO.a ana Prince Edward Island have averaged about 50 cents Alberta 25 and Nova Scotia and New BruhS wick about ten cents.
 While Yukon tops the list magnificently, and has just cause for pride in the matter the whole state ment shows the inequality of the contribution.
 How much better it would be if an uniform tax could be levied whereby the business would not amount to an exploitation the generous, but mat ter of enforced duty toward the Empire as much as are certain other duties made compulsory and every one required to bear his proportion in accordance with his means. No doubt Yukon is giving in her magnificent generosity far beyond the average were other sections doing their part and since this region is not getting the immense returns from war orders and huge crops incidental to the war that other dis trcts receive the effort of Yukon IS all the more noble. Yukon, at the same time, being in the Iead, well could propose the motion that the uniform tax system be put in vogue.
 The Yukon not only is smashing records on Red rOs also other funds as appears III recent compilations.

CONFLICT NOT THE RULE
"Iu the conflict that ever wages between the interests O the employers Ot labor and the demands of the wage
workers" says q labor paper.


 workers says labor paper.
 Fortunately for progress the premise is wrong. Fortunately the conflict" does always wage. Fortunately. instead of conflict" wagng between employer and employee, such conflict is the eXcep ton to the rule. Fortunately employer and employee generally realize that their interests in common Fortunately the employee generally understands that the certainty and size Of pay-checks depend upon whether or his employer is prOsperug Fortu nately the employer usually knows that happy and contented employees are the greatest asset tO his business or industry.
 It is unfortunate that there is conflict between employer and employee too often. Sometimes the fault is tha, of the employer; sometimes it is that or the employee, and sometimes probably most ofen il is that of both employer and employee. There IS still great deal Of room for the improvement Of the relationship between employer and employee and this fact is being recognized by the farseeing ones in both classes There is doubt but that there is room for 8 great deal more educational work among Iabor!as LabOriug men should be in- duced to pay attention to efficiency, industry and thrift. More of them should be shown that the more efficient they become and the industrious they are the mere certain is their continuous employ meut and prompt payment the likely is promotion and the greater number of their employer will re- quire. Hence, industry. loyalty and efficiency are more likely Co increase pay cheeks than anything else. When laboring add thrift to efficiency auI industry they are likely to become en- poye7s or they are able to retire from herd work earlier in life and make room other and younger men.
 More employers should also cultivate the loyalty and interest os their employees and permit them to participate more generously in the profits of their business. Too many of them forget that much of their success in business is due to the efficiency, n- dustry loyalty and integrity of employees who too often get too little for almost priceless service.
 Fortunately however as said in the beginning, with both employer and employee these injustices are the exception rather than the rule.

Many Historical Events Claimed to Have Been FOreCaSted by Her
 Even the War.
PREDICTED EARLY PEACE.
She Believed That the Future Indicated by the Lines of
 the Hand.

PARIS, Jan. 4.--Madame de The. bes, famous as an astrologist and clairyoyant, has died at her country residence in Meung.Sur.Laire, at the age of 72 years. The real name of Madame de Thebes was Anna Vic torine Savingy. She was a well. known personality in Paris and pos es8ed innumerable secrets concern ing the private lives of men and wo. men of note.
 Madame Thebes claimed to have foretoId many great events of his. tory, including the present war. It had been her custom for many years to issue an annual almanac" in which she predicted the future of the new year. In 1913, the year be. fore the great European war, she published her predictions for 1914. Among other things she said:
 "War will continue to menace the world, as tho planet Mars will pre- dominate throughout the year. Pro- found conditions amounting to a poli- tical upheaval will take place in Ger many and the national life of the na- ton will be complete transformed"
 In August, last year, Madame The. bes declared peace would come sud denly and unexpectedly in Europe before 1917. "The roar of the guns will cease overnight" she said. "and soldiers on both fronts will be called home 10 peaceful pursuits. Fate has so dccrecd it."
 Mime. Thebcs was known as the Mother Shipton Of modern Paris. She claimed to have predicted the Boer War, the great Charity Bazaar fire in Paris, the Balkan War, the San Francisco earthquake, the death of Queen Victoria, the assassination of President Carnot and the Marquis de Mores and the death of President Faurc.
 It was said she read the tragedy in the. hands of the Marquis de Mores which was to cost him his life. That was more than 20 years ago.
 Everywhere in her apartment in Paris were plaster casts of hands, among them being those taken from hands of the elder and young Dumas. Christine Nilsson and Emma Calve. lt was said that Queen Marghcrita and other royal personages consult ed Mme. Thcbes. In order to master the inner mysteries of the human hand the noted chiromancer pursued all kinds of investigations in the hospitals, dissections and jaIls of Paris.
 She believed the future is indicated in the lines of the hand She said the future could be read in both hands. "The left is the fate" she said. Tt is the hand in which the future is indicated; the right Is the will, the hand in which that future is modelled according to the force of character possessed by the indiy. idual."
 Of her belief in astrology Mime. Thebes once said:
 "Is it more astonishing that Jup. iter should influence humanity than that the moon should provoke cris- es to the world?"
 In 1899 she predicted Venus would reign in 1900 and recommended the elephant as a mascot. She advised that little models of the animal made of either silver or gold be worn and said they would be tailismans of good luck"
