When Queen Isabel grubstakcd Chris tophci Columbus for the greatest prospect ing trip ever undertaken by man. consid- criug conditions as they then existed, she started something that has gone on ever since and until it has become the biggest proposition ou carth-thc United States of America with a population of upwards of ouc hundred millions of inhabitants.
 And as the United States of America has grown in population and wealth, just SD has 1t grown in patriotism, loyalty and in the spirit that prompts it to be true to itself It has been this patriotism and Ioy- altv to herself that has kept her free to the present time from participating in the scrambled hell which has been Sccthing m Europe ror thc past thirty months But it now looks as though, in spite of her dl- uIomacv. regardless or the fact that she has turned thr other cheek, she iS on the verge or war with one of the strongest oi tl. European powers which she has used every effort Co avert.
 All true Americans will dcplorc present conditions but no true American will cn- dcavor Go sjdcstcp them. If war iS thrust upon uS. war jt will be to the end that American chiyalry and honor may be vim diratrd. American history will repeat it- >eI. and just as Americans have ever and alway, given good accounts of themselves m previous wars, just SO will am excellent accounting be given in the impending cri- si, Never has the American spirit been conquered. never has Old Glory been low cred by am enemy.
 But while Americans are loyal and patriotic. they are generous, just and fair and it is to their sense of generosity and justice that we now appeal in behalf of that element of our citizenship which owes its origin to thc country now practically fore ing u, into war Germans have nothing tor which to be ashamed in the matter of nationality. but those of them who came hrrc cof thcn.owu volitiou and to better their condition should realize that. in the event of war between the country of their nativi- tymj that of thciradoptiou. it isup to them toci.hcr east their lot with the latter OF lose uo time m returning Co the former.

We believe the great majority of Germans in this country are here to make their homes and for the reason that they wcfwit to the FathcrIaud.

While the break which is now imminent between the United States and Germany may terminate President Wilson's long ser vice as a note writer, the fact remains that nearly every note he has sent since the war broke out has had the effect of displeasing somebody.

AN iNTotERANT DEciSioM

We have yet to hear of decision emanating from the courts of the United States which shows a greater spirit of intolerance than that recent one of the appellate division of the supreme court of New York which prevents the exhibition of moving pictures on Sunday
 Not ony is such decision intoler- ant but also distinctly injurious in the degree that 1t cuts off one of the simplest and most harmless of mod. ern pleasures and throws the peopt back upon others that are less harm. less and less beneficial. There is assuredly nothing more innocent than the average moving picture show and also it may be said with equal truth that there is no type of amusement which disseminates information of greater educative value than the movies. Also there is nothing more innocently enjoyable than the con- temptation of good pictures.
 The decision reminds one of that bigoted period which We had com- menced to think we had outgrown when the over abundant morality of

MAYBE ANOTHER.

The United States naval obserya- tory recently announced that the yeal 1917 would see the largest number oi eclipses which can possibly occur within the annual period-seven. Bu we wander if the astronomical sharps did not overook a bet when they dit not include the kaiser In their fore cast.
 From the looks of things there Is 2 decidedly good prospect that that malignant luminary will shortly suf- fer an eclipse which will obscure him forever from the horizon of the worlds affairs.
 With the reinyigorated hosts of Russia tearing at his flank through the Galician territory and with the allies, assisted by the unmatched strength of the United States, daily drawing their steely clutch about his struggling armies in the west, it commences to look very much that the kaiser's little game is fast draw ing to a close. And If not this year then the next.
 The nation that has devoted the greatest of its talents, the brains and the energy of it's smartset people, to the business of war for more than forty years will admittedly not be easily subdued though the combined hosts of earth be arrayed against it.
 But although the end of Germany's mad career may be deferred it is, nevertheless, inevitable and may come much sooner than we expect.
The Nome daily nugget., 1917-07-06

the time decreed that the museums and other amusements of like char acter should be closed to the public on Sunday--and at the same time permitted the saloons to remain open.
 We have admittedly grown a trific broad minded since that period but such decisions as that referred to verily discloses that we are not far away from the old ignorant crudities of though and belief after all
 Court decrees against good clean moving pictures are nothing less than a betrayal of regrettable ignorance on
 the part of those responsible for such enactments.
 Considered from the technical
 standpoint the moving picture is
 nothing more than a succession of
 of still pictures shown one after teh
 other in such manner as to produce a
 semblance of actual mvement and
 assuredly no one has ever found req
 sonable objection to looking at st1ll
 pictures on Sunday. Yet that Is all
 moving pictures really area series
 of separate and distinst pictures each
 one depicting a different pose than
 the one preceding and following it. Again, a moving picture is not a play and there cannot be any logical
 objection to their display on that score. A movie drama or comedy is merly a photograph of a play and presentment of a play on Sunday there assuredly cannot be any just objection to the presentation of a photographic reproduction of a play on that day. We have never heard in recent years of any town of import ance that placed a ban on legitimate theaters which compelled them to close on Sundays. not excepting the towns of the glorious empire state winch fathers the absurd decision referred to.
 The learned jurists may have as- sumed that they were justified in for
 bidding the display of moving pie
 lures on Sunday on the supposition that they were taken on Sunday, but, the probabilities are. that ninety nine out of every hundred were not and why there should be any objection, legal or otherwise, to looking at picture taken on Tuesday or Friday on a Sunday is a difficult matter to fathom. Unless there is an argument against the display of good moving pictures based on stronger reasons than the mere belief that they are detrimental to the public, such decis- ions must be looked upon as plain evidences of ignorant intolerance and bigotry and decidedly harmful

 ABOUT ALASKA

AS shining example of the peculiar propensity of Alaskans to tell con- pletely ridiculous and utterly unfound- ed stories when gracing the great outside with their presence the follow ing article contributed to the list of Alaska fairy tales by former Nome literary light, J. J. McGrath. surely carries away the palm or whatever it is that is awarded unadulterated mendacity. The article is reprinted from the Milwaukee Journal of recent date:
 COLD STORAGE SUMMER.
 ]. J. McGrath, former editor of the Nome Nugget, Alaska, is authority for the story that Albert Barnes. a Nome machlnist, and inventive ge- nius has perfected a fireless cooker, by which he heats his residence and supplies power for all household tasks requiring stored force. On hot days last summer Barnes caught the suns rays at the focus of bright tin roof on his house and conveyed the heat to a large building nearby used as a heat storage plant. In this building there are great squares in artificial stone closely packed in bales of pressed straw. Barnes states that the stones contain more than 2,000,000 calories which he can utilize as he desires. The idea struck him while trying to paint his roof on a hot day. The intense heat made work imposs- ble. He was curious 10 know if it would cook food and placed beef steak on the roof for an hour; it was cooked to a crisp. Small boxes placed at intervals on the roof and connected by wires with the storage plant complete the contrivance. Barnes politely refuses to explain his hnven- tion.
