MARSHAL BRENNEMAN'S otiic

MARSHAL BRENNEMAN'S office, so far as any one knows. has been one of the best conducted in the Ter ritory. His force of deputy marshalF have been carefully chosen and arc both gentlemanly in their dealings with the public and intelligent in the performance of their duties. It Ill be- hooves any man>to attack any ofhclai because he has failed to secure per eonal privileges. If Marshal Brenne- man ran his office on the lines sug- gested by every unfit officeseeker, he would soon detract from its high effi- ciency and receive censure from the powers that be. Thinking persons can find no fault with an official in ap- pointing his men for their ftness' we believe it would be hard to beat the "court house bunch" for unfaiiins courtesy and application to duty.

While the ru' nor may have been caused by the un- timely appearance of one of our pet whales we keep for the amusement or summer tourists, yet it is the duty Of all good citizens to accede to the re- ouests of the government, therefore until we receive permission from those in authority we will confine our marine news to the arrival and de- parture of the mosquito fleet, trust ing that our readers will not ascriDe the omission to lack of journalistic enterprise.

THE Weekly Democrat, published at Anchorage. gets considerably peev- ed over the fact that Valdez held a mass meeting and protested against the removal of the court house to that refrigerating plant, and says many un- kind things about us for having the presumption of wanting to hold on to what we've got. The Democrat IS very inconsistent in its remarks. and in many ways shows the earmarks of it's former editor. We have no objec- lions to the inhabitants of Anchorage using our court house whenever the Marshals office deems it necessary, providing they come over here, but we must insist, even at the risk of calling forth further vituperation from the alleged mouthpiece of Democracy, that our court house remains where it is.

OUR "FRIEND" CARRANZ.A.

Our great and good friend General Carranza," as one United States sena- tor described him in congress recent y, has been unusually slow to deny knowledge of the German proposal for a Japanese -Mexican-Ge alli- ance against the United States in the event of our going to war with Ger many. The first chiefs" foreign min 'ster, after considerable hesitation, made a perfunctory denial, but there has been so much reticence in connec- ton with the whole incident that we may feel justified in doubting Carran- za's good faith.
 Japan has been prompt to disavow any connection with the German en- ierprse. In addition to saying that fhe Zimmerman letter had not been received in Tokio, high Japanese of iicials enlphatically denounced the German scheme as preposterOus so far IS that country was concerned and pledged anew their adherance to the United States 50 long as they were al lowed to bear the white mans burden in sunny California.
 Mexico is very fertile ground for German lntrigues. The American go ernment has much evidence which does not place Carranza's government in a good light. Mexican ports have teen havens for German raiders it not for German submarines. Ger mans are nigh in the councils of Car ranza. It is said that CarranZa' s troops attacked the American scout ing expedition near Parral at the in- stigation of the German consul at Par" ral. Villas Columbus massacre is re- ported to have been plotted by Ger mans in the hope of involving this country in war with Mexico.
 After we had recognized his shad- owy government and attempted to bolster him up. Carranza reciprocated by taking counsel from nation which sought to emDroil his country in war with ours; and it is a natural infer- ence now that Carranza's persistent obstinacy in the face of American threats, which characterize his deal ings with ou: government is bulwark- ed by his assurance of support from Germany.
 The protestations of friendship from our "undying friend" should be received with great deal of reser- vatiOn.

1 Wonder If We Could Try.

The united services held by the diff ferent churches Easter was the finest example of Christian Brother hood that have ever seen in Valdez. and they might we'll say to the peo- pie, "I have given you an example that you should do likewise, if even just little bit of the spirit of true brotherhood, the real genuine (thru the gravel to bedrock) Brotherhood could permeate the social and reE- ligious life of our town instead of the perniciOus spirit of Pharisaism, what desirable place it would be to live in, and we would then have the most inviting and the very cheeriest little town on the coast. for we would pos sess the most Christlike spirit of Brotherhood. If we could only un- derstand the meaning of the words "encourage and help" as thoroughly as we understand condemnation and discouragement" what lot of good qualities we might discover and help to develop in one another and thru them find the hidden possibilities within ourselves. that we are perhaps smothering with our foolish little airs and graces and superficial judgment of each other, and thereby retarding
 the growth of our town and ourselves just because we will not see the beau ty of Brotherhood

MILITARY CAMP FOP U. OF A.

The University of Arizona has
recently received notification
from the Secretary of the Inter-
ior, Franklin K. Lane, that Presi-
dent Wilson has authorized the
setting aside of 500 acres of the
Coronado National Forest for
use by the University of Arizona
as a military camp and tactics
station. The land is located near
the entrance to Sabine Canyon.
and was chosen particularly be-
cause of it's desirability as a place
for encampment in the early
Spring.
The movement for a location
for a military camp was initiated
by Dr.. Won KleinSmid, president
of the University, who made a
trip east last summer in order to
interview cabinet officials and
others regarding the matter.
DR.. Won KleinSmid recently
made a trip to the site in COM
pany with Forest Ranger Selkirk,
for the purpose of making plans
to locate upon the land and fix
up a permanent military encamp-
ment.
The land is we'll located, being
at a medium altitude, and con-
tains a spring of fine water that
is never dry.
With the announcement that
the mining companies of the State
had donated fine mining build
ing, some unknown friend had
donated 100000 for a new obser-
vatory, that the national govern
ment had set aside two sections
of land in the Catalinas for a
biological station, and this last
announcement that 500 acres had
been set aside for a military en-
campment, makes the year 1916
a banner one in the progress of
the institution.

PHONY PHOENIX NEWS

According to the news from
Phoenix, given out by people who
have recently returned from the
State capital, one must believe
that the papers of that city have
published some very strange and
phony tales regarding the guber.
Material contest.
We read of fifty members of
the National Guard on duty at
the State capitol building on jan
uary 1st, when the real truth in
the matter was that an armed
deputy sheriff appeared on the
scene, just one armed man and
he, an officer of the law. Quite
q difference.
Then came the report of Sena-
tor Mark Smiths death, SEEM
ingly for the purpose of putting
the followers of Governor Hunt
in bad. A canard that could not
possibly win anything for those
who put it out.
1t seems impossible to get the
truth of the gubernatorial situa-
ton at Phoenix by reading any
of that city's papers, for the rea-
son that they are antagonistic to
Governor Hunt and favor Mr..
Campbell.
We read that Mr.. Campbell
has gained 157 votes as a result
of the inspection of the ballots.
while Governor Hunt has only
gained 45 votes. On the other
hand, friends of Governor Hunt
claim that he has gained more
than 100 votes over Mr.. Camp
bells reported official majority of
80 votes.
Evidently, the people of the
State will have to wait the action
OF the courts in the recount con-
test, in order to get the truth re-
garding the vote cast for Cover
nor Hunt and Mr.. Campbell.

PROPHESY ON NEW YEAR

Prophesies for the new year,
'adduced from the Pythagoran
code, "were issued at New Haven,
Conn, by DR.. Detmer Eugene
Croft, January 9Th. The United
States, he declared, will enter
Mexico again by force of arms
and establish provisional gov
eminent. Carranza and his
regime will disappear.
Villa will not be alive Septem-
Der 18th. The German emperor,
DR.. Croft predicted, will not live to
see the end of the war. Deep
sorrow will follow his family.
The royal circles of Russia, Italy,
Greece and Spain will suffer. The
rule of Prussia and the Ottoman
empire will pass with the close
of the war. The thrones of the
far east will be shaken.
Great naval activity among the
war fleets of Europe will come in
the early part of the year.
A stormy cycle is indicated for
our president in the first four
Cabinet changes will
come. Congress will be reac-
tionary. Labor legislation will
be disappointing.
The year will bring acute Ten
sion in our foreign relations.
Japan will aggressively plan.
Look for a coalition between
Japan, Russia and Germany.
Drought will affect the west
and south. sudden, violent storms
are indicated.
February, April and July are
the dark months of the year. In
tense magnetic bands encircle the
earth. Riots and crime and cpl
denies are likely to appear, said
DR.. Croft.
