Interesting Discussion as to
the Means and Methods
Leading to Success
MANY in ATTENDANCE

The Sunday school workers Of Gar
field county met together in Glenwood
last Sunday in most interesting and
helpful session and all pronounce 1t
the most helpful convention ever held
in the county.
The session IN the Presbyterian
church at 2:3O was called to order
by NJ. J. Mayes, president of the Gar
field County sunday School associati ton,
and he introduced A. T. Albertson who
is in charge of the state Sunday school
work.
Mr.. Albertson made an exceptional
ly fine address, dwelling upon the value
of the Sunday school work to the COM
munity and the state and emphasizing
the need of this work and of workers
i'll this portion of the Lord s vineyard.
When he had finished everyone present
was convinced that Mr.. Albertson
spoke as one having authority and all
felt indebted to the speaker for the
practical information he had impaired,
and determined to profit by the same.
At the close of this meeting came
election of officers, with the follow
ing result;
President, NJ. J. Mayes, GlenwooL;
District presidents, Mrs. H l.. Torrey,
Glenwood; Mrs. F. Z. Sweet, Carbon
dale, Mrs. A. H. Hepler, New Castle;
Mrs. Jas. Ewers, Divide creek; A ".

retary, Ian Bell, Glenwood; Treasurer.
A. NJ. Craven Silt.
In the evening most enthusiastic
union meeting was held at the Metho-
dist church, addressed by Mr.. Albert
son who brought out in very inter-
esting manner the value of Sunday
school attendance and work in any
community.
Mr.. Albertson is intensely Interested
IN this great work and he presents the
subject in way that is both Interest,"
| ing and convincing. 1t is safe to say
| that of the large audience in attend
ance many new resolves were made
along the line of Sunday school work
for the future. The meetings were
both well attended and Sunday school
people believe that the effect will be
most helpful and that the schools of
the county will be much benefited as
result of these sessions.

Of Our Soldier Boys
HOLD R0UsING MEETING

That was certainly a most interest
ed lot of people who gathered at the
Orpheum theater last Wednesday even

Y. NJ. G. A. drive that is being made
throughout the country in support Of
the splendid institution which has
planned such a grand work in behalf
of our soldier boys who have besn
called upon to go to foreign countries
and fight for the Stars and Stripes.
The house was packed to its capaci-

meeting to begin and when NJ. j.
Mayes, chairman of the Garfield coun-
ty drive committee, Mrs. Basil Clarke,
Mrs. NJ. N. Cooley of Grand Junction
and Mr.. Toothaker, state agent for the
Y. M. c. A., ascended the platform
they were greeted with hearty ap-
plause.
Mr.. Mayes, in few preliminary re-
marks, introduced Mr.. Toothaker Who
briefly outlined the object of the big
drive and stated the purposes for
which the Y. M. c. A. budget of thir-
ty-five millions would be used. He
only touched On the great value Of tho
Y. NJ. G. a. to the soldier boys in the
foreign field, leaving further explana-

just why it was necessary that this

Cards were then passed out and the
audience raised in cash and volunteer

have since been made to this amount.
1t is now proposed that Glenwood
shall raise $1,000 for this splendid
work before the campaign closes next

MINING AND DREDGING
 EDITION POSTPONED

| In answer to numerous inquiries re- lative to the Nuggets annual publica-
 ton, the Mining and Dredging Edition, the publisher announces that the journal will not appear this fall. After
 survey of the situation it has been
 decided to publish the magazine in the l Spring shortly before the opening of navigation and this rule will be fol- | lowed in issuing all future editions 1 The great press of business during the l fall months has at all times rendered 1 the task of publishing the magazine one of great difficulty. Not only is 1t hard to find time to secure the nAes- sary information but in haste and rush marking the last days of the season it is practically impossible to Sver the field thoroughly as is des1red It has been the aim of the publishers at all times to make the magazine as full ly comprehensive of the local field as
 possible, overlooking no item of infor
 nation relative to the mining condi-
 tions and activities of Seward Penin-
 sula that would be of interest tS rthe
 public Although attaining a fair de-
 gree of success in this respect in the
 past. the magazine has at all times fallen short of what was desired ow- ing 10 the imposslbihty of entirely covering the field during the late fall. Under the new plan it will be possible to fully accomplish this purpose. By issuing in the Spring the publisher will have ample opportunity to thoroughly cover every field of endeafor a9f also
 avoid all inaccuracies due to haste and
 te absence of time in which to verify
 the information secured.
 As in previous years, the Nugget re-
 quests that readers who possess photos
 of late mining operations or other
 views illustrative of the industries and
 activities of this section kindly per
 init their use for Illustrative purposes. Views contributed will be carefully preserved and returned to their owners after half tones are made therefrom.

opening of hostilities in Europe can
 have no other interpretation than that
 Japan was seeking to gain an armed
 foothold on the soil of China. Failing
 in both efforts, largely through the ac-
 tivities of the United States, she
 raised the question of sphere of in-
 fIuencc under the plea that as a na-
 tural protector of the weak and prac-
 ticany defenceless Chinese nation she was rightfully entitled to certain ad- vantages
 This sphere Of influence question has rapidly grown into most vexatious problem which has several times threatened to develop serious friction not alone with the United States but also with other nations equally inter- ested in the maintenance of the open door policy. But for the development | of the European war it is very proba- ble that the question would ultimately ntlNt prov Okeu d SltudtlOH NhISh AlhbA' have led to very serious consequences. 1 nasmuch as the United States was at for the maintenance of the open door, I It Is equally probable that in the event
 of matters reaching q crisis. we would have been the first nation involved
 with Japan
 Japan's pledge that the territorial integrity of China shall be respected and her equally important reaflrma-
 ton of the open door policy, happily, 1 removes this unpleasant prospect, for 1 the time being at least. and it is to be
 earnestly hoped that the international lalignments and adjustments following ! the close of the great war will result
 in the disturbing question being settled
 once and for all time.
 Japan both by reason of her proxim- ity to China. as well as her racial con- sanguinity. undoubtedly possesses, as l the State Department admits, special interests in China and the Chinese peo- pie. But this does not in any degree grant her the right to assume political or commercial domination over ncighboring and friendly state, espec- ially when such dominance will result
 in the creation of situation which
 will menace the prosperity and also the safety of others.
 If Japan is able to achieve com mercial pre-cminencc in China by com peting on equal terms with the rest of the world she is fully entitled to what ever prerogatives that may accure, but she is in no degree entitled to greater privileges than any other a;. ton in at taining such supremacy.

NOME, ALASKA. NOV. 8. 1917.
AN AGREEABLE UNDERSTANDING

The State Department announce ment to the effect that the United States and Japan have reached mu- tual understanding regarding the fu- ture commercial status of this and other Occidental nations in China, is welcome Lews in view of the fac. that the so called sphere of influence" question has. in late years, become a most serious and disturbing problem, owing to the apparent inclination of Japan 10 override the international agreement relative to the "open door, policy and usurp to herself commercial as well as political dominance in the Chinese republic.
 In many respects this agreement is a distinct triumph for American di- plomacy According to the press dis patches, Japan has not only solemnly pledged herself to respect the terri torial integrity of China but has also agreed to recognize the long sustained contention of America that the nations of the world are entitled to the privi- lises of free and unrestricted trade within 1he Flowcry Kingdom, regard less of political influences which might be wielded by any individual nation or international group.
 Remembering that trade increase is one of the primary objectives of all progressive nations, it is easily under stood why Japan has so consistently betrayed the inclination to seek con- mercial dominance through mtcricct- ing Japanese political influences into the fabric of the Chinese government. Fearing to defy the established trade conventions, Japan evidently sought to eNadc them by eXerting surreptitious influences through political channels, thereby securing to herself privileges and preroGatives which would place her trade competitors at a disadvan- tagc. There is little doubt that she also hoped to assume in course of time, complete political supremacy either through diplomatic means or by open aggression The several hostile dem. onstrations displayed shortly after the

Beware Of the
Peddler and
German Kultur
Government is Unearthing
Most DiabolicaI Plots Con-
ceivable to Menace Lives
of United States Citizens.

Below are cited some splendid
examples of the "kultur" the
kaiser and his henchmen are at
tempting to spread over the
world and this, at the same time,
is "a good hint to people to give
itinerant peddlers the cold
shoulder in these uncertain days.
The following is taken from a
western Iowa newspaper: THE
latest and most diabolical plot to
destroy human lives was shown
up last week when a travelling
fakir peddling an innocent lock-
ing court plaster was arrested at
Henderson. When searched at
the police station over one thous-
and dollars in currency was found
on his person. and this made the
officers suspicious and it was de-
cided to fully investigate the
case. A sample of the court
plaster was sent to Council Bluffs
and when analysed was found to
contain large quantities Of lepro-
sy germs, the most malignant
and incurable disease known.
The aforesaid peddler was a
German, hardly able to speak the
English language, and appeared
Indifferent to the consequences
when found out. Just what will
be done with him is not known,
but hanging or even burning is
too good for a dirty skunk who
would spread that greatest of all
pestilences thru the land. +" An
