 The gouoral idea says soioHrn- ing Dimcjte. that there is consider able work in Dime creek and that there is a shortage of men there is one that elould be corrected. There is practically no work going on in Dime creek and there would be men enough for all that could possibly be done and then some. Owing to freightiNa difficulties and lack of wood, mining is suspended until the winter Eardens tho trails and then teams can work. There is a great quantity of freight at the landing which has still to be moved and which cannot be moved this includes heavy machinery, pumps, hoisting gear. boilers etc, which were ship ped from Nome. These are likely time. But there is little or no min in going oa at the present time, in any event. Some ditch building was prGcceding but this is almost fin ished now and a little sluicing em- ploying nore but owners themselves was all that could be seen. It may be that there will be considerable mining going on this winter, but if so. some one has got to find sOlu- ton of the fuel and grub problem especially the high prices of the latter. The Dimeite insisted that he wasn't knocking the camp. He said that there was a considerable amount of low grade dirt, it was somewhat spotted, but he did not want mon 10 be going there on the false assumption that they were proceeding to the scene of a new third beach line or another Anvil.

war; IL is a nation
1t is for the people who are to stay
at home that this is designed as a
textbook of information as to what
may be done or should not be done by
them during the course of the war. In
it, various forms of work are pointed
out which will require but little addi.
tional time and still will mean much
toward the successful prosecution of
the war by this country.
II is the duty of everybody to adopt
the suggestions OF the state war board.
It is the duty Of all who can to under
take some national service. The way
is suggested and the means provided.
1t is now a real test of the patriotism
of the individual who wears button

ties.
Possimists see in the food control
board no hope for better prices, but
those self-same pessimists probably
hope against better prices ii the truth
be known, for political or other rea-
sons. Common sense indicates that
prices will be lower as the result of
the work ,of Herbert Hoover and his
board. Once down, the war ended and
economic readiustment proceeding, il
will be a difficult matter to restore
again the high prices which the coun-
try now knows The American people
demand reason for everything and
the reasons, in the future, must per.
force be moro specific, more valid and
more generally satisfactory than has
been the case in the past. A perma-
nent scale of moderate prices may well
be anticipated after the war, as the
people by that time will have shown
that such is possible.
The war will have done more than
anything else TO make the United
States economically Independent of
the balance of the world. A complete
independence probably is impossible
and impracticable, but industries ncv.
er before known here will have been
developed in that time to a healthy
state of growth.
AS America, particularly during the
past six months, has eliminated ar.

has substituted, as far as possible
those of her own manufacture, 50 will
she continue so to do. d..
The readiustment to the new state
of affairs, before accomplished, may
take years of time, but it is inevitable
that new and greater commercial

ALSACE- LORRAINE

Probably because it was so Obvious
the announcement that Chancellor
Mchaclis holds the popc's peace pro-
pOsals to be idcntic with those OF the
German government of December,
1916, arouses but little interest.
There is, however, great deal of
interest intthc chancelor's refusal to
discuss the status of Alsace-Lorraine
as part of the German empire, pro-
viding the refusal is genuine and not
a mere bait to entice the allies into a
discussion. Assuredly, Michaelis
knows what Germany's stand on the
Alsatian question will be and, as if
later to put himself in the position of
yielding to allied desires, does he shun
this proposition? .
If there is not to be status quo
ante bellum as part of peace terms,
which the allied nations declare impos-
sible, then the Alsatian issue assumes
great proportions. Most certainly
France, as a victor, will insist upon
the restoration of her rightful heritage
that territory which was grcedily cX-
torted from her in 1871 at the conclus
ion of the Franco-Prussian war along
with billion dollars indemnity
AlsaCe-L Lorraine, supposedly half
French and half German and therefore
held neutral, is dominated by French
leaning, despite its subsdiZation by
the imperial government. In Alsace
is the story of families involuntarily
expatriated deprived of their country,
their life. The rancor is bitter; the
hatred Of Prussianisn supreme.
For its Illicit greed, or its carrying
out of it's wild dream of a race of
supermen and for its enforced slavery,
for it amounts to that, of protesting
race Of people, Germany viii be hcld
accountable, noarly half a century
later, by the allied world "a H.
The Franco Prussian war was waged
by the imperial government with a
single purpose which was promptly
achieved. Like purposes, developing
since and coming to head in August,
1914, have after three years of the bit
terest warfare the world has ever
known, been utterly defeated.
No, the AlsatiaG question is as live
an issue today us il was in the bitter
reproachrul spirits of the subJuGatcd
natives in 1871. 1t will most certainly
be an important part of the peace dls-
cussion as far as France Is concerned
and the status brought about by Ma
poleon IL century ago will again be re-
stored.

ing into the room from the Potomac
the senate is delibcrating, in every
sense of the word, over an important
piece of war legislation.
The cxhausting process of placing
any measure upon the statute books
of the United States is only the more
emphasized by war legislation. The
war tax bill has boon discussed and
still it is being discussed. 1t would
almost seem that, in tho time when
has been consumed, a new constitu-
ton for the country could have been
formulated and adopted with amend
ments to cover every phase of national
activity or inactivity

POOR AUSTRIA

The renewal of the Italian drive
against Austria along a front of over
80 miles is almost romantic because of
Its timeliness. After weeks of compar.
ative stiffness, the Italian guns again
have belched forth and scattered the
forces OF the dual monarchy i'm the
direction OF Triest, Austria's most i'm
portant seacoast stronghold.
This latest move Is one of the
shrewdest bits of military foresight
inaugurated for some time. How far
1t will go or how long 1t will continue
is, like all other offensives, a matter
for the future only to determine. But
Its seriousness to the cause OF the cen
trail powers is reflected in the proposed
visit of Prince Charles of Austria to
tho front
The offensive 1t would seem, is an
answer to the most recent peace pro-
posals of Pope Benedict Probably 1t
was started for this very purpose. 1t
viii most assuredly have dishearten-
ing effect upon Austria where disheart-
ening effects will count more for peace
than any other place at this stage of
the struggle.
Austria's burden Is becoming heavy.
Professedly, she seeks peace Still,
she clings to hor allies, particularly
Germany. She Is slowly realizing that
Germany is Il milestone about her
neck as far al n real peace is concern
ed, Much of the pro-German influence
with the fall of Count Tisza, was elm
mated from Austrian politics. The mil
itary caste Ia not nearly so strong,
1t Is an idle prediction that the re
newal OF the Italian offensive will ali
enate Austria from her allies. but 1t IL
IA sound statement that II will SOW tn,
seeds OF separate peace more broad
cast than ever before.

PEACE IN REICHsTAG

When the reichstag meets Tuesday,
Aug. 81, and the peace proposals of
Pope Benedict are taken up for dis
cussion, It will be a matter of inter
est to the allied world to keep its eyes
on one Matthias Erzber-
Der, leader of the Catholic party.
Latest advices have 1t that Erzber-
ber is responsible for the recent sug-
gestions OF the pope He is said to
have carried his activities to the vat
ican and the peace suggestions are
credited as the resultant.
The reichstag, at best, Is a mere de-
batting society. Its authority is small.
AS a debating society, however, 1t per
forms an important function. Public
opinion to a large extent Is moulded
by public utterances. Just to this OK
tent. the reichstag serves as the ba-
rometer Of thought and talk in Ger
many and, reversely, creates the
thought and talk.
In the bundesrath, which is control
led and dominated by Prussia, lies the
real legislative power In Germany.
All laws are originated by this body,
although the approval of the reichstag
is necessary. The bundesrath con
trolls the chancellor.
Thus, although no real authority ex-
lists in the reichstag, what comes of
the peace proposals, as reviewed by
this body In open discussion, will be of
some real significance and the most
significant utterances of all will be
those of Herr Erzberger.
