PATRIOTIC ALASKA
(Dawson News)

Alaska, the neigbbOr of Yukon is preparing to help Uncle Sam and the Allies in the war. No doubt Alaska will do her share.
 NortLeIners are not slow in any game. They represent the best from many cIimes.
 Yukouers already have distin- guis15d themselves in many of the hardest fought battles of the war. AIaskans no doubt will prove of the saue stern mettle.
 Yukon has sent 10 per cent of her white population. II Alaska does as well she will have a big force to her credit. But, of course, Un- Gle sam is not depending on the voluntary system, and is using the CouscriDt method rom the start. AlaSka's pro rata, therefore, may call aL first for a much smaller percentage of her population than Yukon has sent to date. But the war Is not yet over, and both ter ritOrirs yet have time and perhaps opportunity awaiting them to write much Of the stirring history of the worlds brave deeds to their credit.
 Alaska has formed many patriot ic societies and also is to be taxed like other parts of the Union for the fighting of the nations battles. Alaska, therefore, will contribute Of her men and money. Those who are taxed and who fight a nations battles deserve the highest priVi- leges within the gift of a nation. The AIaskaus, as well as the Yukon CTS, are fighting for democracy and all that the name COmprehends. TUkOuers in contributing their wealth and men to Canada have re- presentatioD-a full voice, a full fledged member in the national as sembly or Canada. But the Alas kans continue at a disability. They have a delegate to congress, but he has only Q voice. He is merely a spokesman and has no vote in con- gress. America now has the 0p- pOrtunity to do the graceful thing for her brave Alaska sons. Let her raise Alaska to statehood and thus give her q full representation In congress; or at least make the necessary amendment to permit her member Of the lower house to vote as well as speak in that assembly.
 Men who fight for nation and help pay it's debts are entitled to a share in the shaping Of the des- tiny Of that nation. Let Uncle sam get Into step with Johnny Canuck on this broad priciple of democracy.
 Alaskans are making no com plaint against serving under the present conditions, and doubtless will be just as eager for the fray as though they did have a vote in national affairs, but to extend them the franchise in the national as- sembly will be, to say the least, a graceful recognition and good busi- ness policy. ..-L--.- .---A-4AA&A2

the enthusiasm created by the idea
SO great that it decided to help pass
along the call.
Financing the second installment
of the Liberty bonds is not quite the
play time that was the first cam
paign. However, there is not a man
who is being pinched or hurt by the
contribution of a part of his savings
to the fund that makes secure the
savings of himself and others. both
here and in the countries of the world
| elsewhere.
Because the work is being done
voluntarily there is less talk about it
for We are not people given to boast
ing and blatancy over our acts. The
| average American citizen does what
he can and says little about it; but
when what he has done is measured
up the full measure is equal to that
done by any people under the sun.
We must keep digging little deep
er each time these calls come; and
as We gradually reconcile ourselves
TO the thought that it is a necessity,
and realize the importance of the vic
tory that must be won, and learn the
full meaning of the battle for freedom
OF the people, then SO, gradually will
we become content that we are doing
what we should do under the circum-
stances, that what we are doing could
not be done for us by any other; and
finally, that the glory of the victory
will belong to us-those who put our
hands in our pockets and dug down
toward the bottom-who made posi-

gram arranged by the men in position

The cause of Germanism, Prussian-
ism, autocracy, or whatever other
name we may call the a.3gressor and
prosecutor in this war, is receiving
daily blow that is slowly but surely
striking at the vitals of its life; and
soon patriotic sacrifice of men and
their money will bring down the gift

SELF AND PELF,


When the men of America say
Here am II to the country's call for
aid. we applaud and are proud Of our
selves for that we are part of the
great citizenry that lays itself at the
feet OF Liberty, an Offering in behalf
Of nations yet to be.
When those same men OF America
give from out the pay they receive
for this service, to help send them
selves to the front, then all modes of
expressing praise and admiration be-
come SO weak as to cease in useful
ness.
The men of America have done
both. They are going and they are
sending back to help others to go,
the very money a thankful govern
ment pays them in extinguishment of
the financial part OF thu obligation it
owes to them.
The soldiers of the nation are re-
spending literally to the call for il
nancing the governments war pro-
gram, and the response came in re-
ply to a call from among their own
midst. The soldiers themselves are
progenitors of the call The govern
ment heard it with amazement, and
then with admiration, and later found

GUARDING THE LIVESTOCK.

AS matter of national service. to
say nothing of personal interest, own
| ers Of livestock will do well to heed
! the appeal of the railroads that they
! exercise all possible care to keep
their animals off the rails, says the
! Atlanta Constitution.
! Some time ago the Southern made
such an appeal, stressing the enorm-
Gus economic Wastage that the coun
/ try suffers through the destruction
! Of live stock by railroad trains, but
! the Southern was not alone in this.
! Railroad companies generally over
| the country have from time to time,
since the beginning of the war, espe-
cially, besrJken greater precaution
on the part OF farmers and stock men,
and at the same time they have alb
cured their engine drivers to be par
tlcularly painstaking to avoid COLI
sions with animals which have straycd
onto the tracks.
The Seaboard has just issued a new
circular, which it is mailing general
~ to owners of live stock in Georgia
and to its employees, in which it again
calls attention to the deplorable an
nual loss of cattle, hogs, sheep, mules
and hores-aggregatin many millions
of dollars-On railroad tracks, and all
OF which was due to somebody's neg
ligence. 1t again appeals to live stock
owners to be more vigilant and to in
crease their efforts to keep their ami
| mails off the rails, and to railroad en-
pl0yes to cooperate in a general de-
termination to reduce live stock de-
| struction on railroad tracks to the
minimum.
The fairness and the timeIiness of
| such an appeal as this must be ap-
parent to every one, and this is some
thing of purely conservation nature
in which every citizen can and should
cooperate. 1t is intended to curtail
an economic waste that is costly i'll
the extreme, and for which there is
no possible justification.
The killing of a food animal re.
duces the worlds meat supply by just
that much, and right now there is not
a pound of food to be wasted. More
than that, it entails a cash loss, eth
err to the railroad company ON whose
tracks the killing takes places, or
to the owner of the animal, at time
when every citizen and every railroad
corporation is taxed to the limit of
his and its resources to meet the
demands made by the war. And the
economic loss is fully as great, if not
greater, every time that a mule or q
| horse is killed
i. No, animal has any right within the
! enclosures of railroad right of way,
! and it is the duty Of every owner OF
/! animals to protect his property, and
at the same time observe the rights
! Of the railroads, by employing every
/ reasonable means of keeping his live
stock within it's legal and proper
bounds

RAILWAY CASE UP
IN SUPREME COURT

Washington, Jan. 9-The climax In
the legal contest over constitutionality
OF the Adamson law was reached in
the supreme court.
Arguments we're begun in the Mis-
souri, Oklahoma and Gulf railroads
test case. in which the department OF
justice is appealing from Federal
Judge Hooks decision at Kansas City,
Mo, that the law, passed last Sep
tember, when a nationwide railroad
strike seemed imminent, is "uncon-
stitutional, null and void"
The arguments are the first on the
merits of the Adamson law in any
court, Judge Hook having decided the
case without formal hearing in order
to expedite the appeal for the supreme
courts final determination.
A decision is expected within a few
weeks at most.
Voluminous briefs we're filed by the
federal and railroad counsel before
the beginning of the arguments, which
proceeded after announcement by the
court of numerous opinions and orders
reconvening after its holiday recess.
The railroads brief contended the
law is unavoidable, experimental, In.
capable of a plan, interferes with lib

her cargo being fruit, it was consid.

statements before the Spanish con.
