ALASKA EXHIBIT IS
 PLANNED BY THE C. P. R.

The Canadian Pacific Railway is planning an Alaska display for va rious eastern exhibitions also fairs in the western part of Canada to be held this spring, summer and fall. This is the announcement re- ceived today in Juneau from the publicity department of the railway, coming in special advice from r. F. w. Lowle, who cabled from SIag- way.
 The Canadian Pacific Railway plans to put the exhibit from Alas ka at Toronto, London and Ottawa and the big events held in those three cities and then ship the en' tire exhibit to the numerous fairs to be held in Western Canada. The company will arrange for men to accompany the exhibitions. giving lectures and will transport the eX- hibits from place to place and d large sum of money has been appro- rriated for this amount.
 The significance of this big fea- ture is plainly apparent to all Alas kans and will prove a great incen- tive for travel and incidentally, per haps, settlement in Alaska. As the collection of this exhibit will involve much time and expense it is under stood that the Commercial organiza- tions of the north will lend great as- sistance if they will help in the col lection of Totem poles. Indian wares and photographs.

MAKES 40 PER CENT
 BASIS FOR TAXATION

OLYMPIA, March 6.-The senate yesterday amended the house bill fixing 50 per cent of the property value as a basis for taxation to mako 40 per cent the basis. As amended the bill passed 23 to 8. The 50 per cent was agreed on in the house to create a uniform system throughout the state. The senate changed the figure, on the ground that some of the as easements are now as low as pei cent and the 50 per cent basis would hermit too large an increase in taxes

SAYS MOUNTAIN BOYS
/ OF 6 DRINK WHISKEY

Washington, Jan. 1.--Describing
conditions among the mountaineers of
the United States as defying descrip-
ton, Miss Virginia Trimble,r presi-
dent of the Association for the Re-
lief and Educational Work Of Poor
Mountain White, has launched COM
prehensive campaign here for their
alienation. Members Of congress have
pledged their. support.
1t was the original intention of
Miss Trimble, who is the daughter of
Judge N. w. Trimble, of Alabama,
and her co-workers to secure bill
providing constructive work among
the southern mountain states only,
but conditions hyae been found to be
SO bad in other sections that the
campaign has been made national in
scope. Gt4.
"This is a phase of national pre-
paredness which patriotic Americans
certainly should not overlook" de-
clared Miss Trimble today. III am
glad that this country has been able
l. give assistance was socatwPst t. c
to give assistance to the nations
abroad, where such assistance was so
badly needed, but here we have hor-
rible conditions right at our doors.
"In many of the mountain regions
the people have no education, no
thoughts of sanitation, and they are
poverty stricken beyond description.
Boys of five and six years Of age use
tobacco, drink whiskey and swear
horribly.
These people are or pure Anglo
Saxon stock and no one can tell to
what heights they might rise if they
were given fair chance. I do not
think any patriotic American citizen
can fail to see what is our duty to
these submerged people,"

THE ROADS OF 1917.

1t will be but short time now until the rgors and
storms of winter will be past and the problems of new
year will be before us for solution
One of the most important of these problems will be-
What of our country roads in 1917"
The year 1916 witnessed the greatest impetus to road
building that has ever been known in history Gov
ernment state county and municipality all awoke and
attacked the problem with vgor and the results in many
instances were most gratifying
But there Was the past year. another element in the
solution of the good road problem that heretofore had
been ackng-that of community cooperation In many
parts of the country the opportunities of the good roads
advocates had their effect and the PEOPLE awoke to
the live fact that the roads were THEIR roads, and
that THEY individually responsible for their main
tenance And this was just the added force needed to
give to the movement impetus that nothing could stop
1t is this feature Of community cooperation that must
De fostered if roads to be made what would
have them Each and every citizen must be fully arous
to HIS responsibility merely to pay his taxes and
give his few days of work each year. but shoulder his
ful share of responsibility and let up until every
road in his community is GOOD road.
Many communities have worked up a sentiment that
each andevery citizen shall give one day out of each
month to voluntary labor the roads, This is an ak
iliay to all other road working facilities And the plan
as carried out in these communities has worked splendid
results in the improvement of the highways.
IT all communities will organize on this plan work
1t up to maximum of efficiency and keep the enthu
sasm at white heat, it will be only short while until
they awake to the fact that their road problem has
been solved

ALLIES REPLY. TO THE PRESIDENT
Will Differentiate Between Peace
Among Present Belligerents and
Future Arrangements
!, Against War.
FINAL DRAFT NOW BEING STU
DIED BY ENTENTE CABINET
If No Hitch Occurs Document May
BE Handed Ambassador Sharp
at Paris.

London, Jan. 2.-The final draft of
the reply Of the Entent to President
Wilson's peace note, which already
has been approved by France and
Great Britain, has been forwarded to
Italy and Russia AS no changes
have been suggested from those quar-
ters, it is not improbable the note
will be delivered to the American
ambassador in Paris, William G.
Sharp, within a short time. It is un-
derstood here the note may possibly
be handed to Mr.. Shary tomorrow.
However, Belgium made her. re-
quest at the last moment that the
statement of her case be added to the
reply to the Central Powers, and sim
liar additions or delays may occurr in
the case of the note to President Will
son.
The reply is about the same length
as the note to the Central Powers,
and has the same characteristics of
general and guarded language. One
of the most important points is a diff
ferentiation between peace among the
present belligerents and such future
arrangements as may be made for
permanent peace, the purpose being
to show neutral upholders of a per-
manent peace how that is attainable.
This is attainable not alone by
first concluding the present war, but
also by concluding the kind of a peace
which will pave the way for a per-
manent peace.
While the original draft, like the
reply to the Central Powers, was
written largely in France, Foreign
Secretary Balfour also has had a con-
siderable part in it, particularly in
regard to phrases seeking to eluci-
date the situation for the benefit of
pullic opinion in neutral countries.

Alcohol as a Cleaner.

Alcohol seems to possess an espec-
ial, gift at banishing grease. I Keep
a bottle of denatured alcohol on my
kitchen shelf for this particular pur-
pose.
When girease has been spilled or
spattered on the floor and has pene-
trated into the pores of the wood, al
cohol removes it better than any
thing else have ever tried. A wad
of soft paper dampeneG with alcohol
will quickly remove grease from the
stove or sink or greasy cooking
utensil, and if the paper is then
burned the disagreeable task is
quickly over
Alcohol satisfactorily renews the
ssoiled collar of storm coats, and is
better to remove spots from black
goods than gasoline.
Alcohol is pleasant to use as a
cleanser since it quickly evaporates,
leaving neither odor nor stain. 1t is
also perfectly safe.-Orange Judd

WANTED-PRODUCERS.

we have become so accustomed to the cry that the
prevailing high prices of living the result of our
increased exports Of food stus that it comes as some
what OF shock to learn from official figures that during
the past year exports of food supplies were reality
something like 100000 less than the previous year
And it stated the authority that never before
has the visible supply been so low.
The food spectators have been yelling that Europe
was making such tremendous demand for our food
supplies that the enormous shipments in themselves
were the cause of sky high prices That too appears
to be mixture of financial wind and hot air -
Congress is Investigating the price boosting COM
bnes But did you hear of the politicians of either
party doing anything more than to 'nvestgate?" Did
you ever hear of conviction? More wind-potca
wind. r
There two distinct causes for the prevailing HIGH
prices We lack producers, and we are cursed with
set OF food spectators who would starve baby to death
for penny.
Our production is not keeping pace with the demand
because our farmers leaving their acres and turn

And there are to take their places on the farms
AS Nr Cevoand so tersey put it, "ths is condition
and not theory"
Food spectators know this and are buying and hoard
ing the supply and doing it out in rbles at their own
prices.
Foreign demand? Bunk!
Wholesale robbery? Yes
When we get rid of four-fifths Of the middle men, and
on the farms and put of them there then we will
nave ample supplies at reasonable prices and not until
then.
