nine out of every hundred, it is of his own max
ing. It requires health and hardihood to be a
fisherman; which is one more reason why fish,
erman can do something else if he cannot fish
without being put in preferred class" If We
must save wheat flour in order to help our allies
to win the war; let everybody help. whether he is
a fisherman or a banker.
1t is said that fishermen in Southeastern
Alaska can-and do take their fish into Prince
Rupert or anywhere on the Canadian side, sell
their product and buy whatever they see fit; for
that reason Alaska is losing trade. Hence the
move to exclude them from the operations of
that law. If such is the case, it is evidently up
to our government to take a hand. The remedy
is simple. So far as we are personally concerned.
We shall strenuously object the making of the
fshermen-or any other class of men. preferred

The echo from the sale of Liberty Bonds to
the westward does not sound as though the
people had stampeded and much less broken their
necks in their eagerness to reach the selling
places. The Juneau Dispatch of last Sunday,
hasn't word about the sale. Returning visitors
from that burg" claim the town is buried in
snow, which accounts for the sfnothered echo
There must be something in that report, for, as
general rule. those people are loud blowers -

Westbrook Raises $315,ooo

Westbrook, Me, Oct. 20.-The re-
ports from the Fighting Fourth Lib
erty lean in Westbrook last evening
showed that the city had over-sub-
scribed it's quota of $4,000 byy about
so per cent. The total bond subscrip-
ton in the city last evening was re-
ported as $685. 600 The goal which
was originally understood for the
Paper city was $25o,0o0 and with the
excellent cooperation which his met
on all sides the city had gone over the
top on this amount practically before
it was announced that the city would
only be expected to subscribe $780,
900. The limit was passed gloriously
at the big public rally to which 1000
turned out in Bridge street square
on Wednesday last. The solicitors kept
plugging, however. and many more
bonds were sold.
The employees at the mills did very
well and all made fine showing. The
Warren paper mills employees were
the first to put their factory over the
top and thus entitle themselves to
the honor pennant OF the treasury de-
partment. At ore time it was hoped
that the city could pass the 00.000
mark, but in view of the fact that
a large proportion of the citizens had
earlier subscribed literally and that
many Of these had doubled up" it
was soon conceded that this would be
more than could be expected from
Westbrook.

ceiving new troops from the states and
sending them up, and / always consider
when I see these boys just over, leaving

what is before them. But the American
soldier is wonder and the whole world
is fast becoming to realize that this at
mosphere of freedom and liberty in
which we have lived so long has made
real soldiers of our boys and they are
the ones who are going to make the
world a safe place to live in.
If you want to thoroughly appreciate
the value Of American citizenship come
over here. It's the finest thing in the
world and when this terrible war is over
the world will realize what a power we
are and we must not let this reputation
spoil us
We know hat you are all doing so
much at home for us and it's a big help
an it puts the right kind of life into us.
The morale of the troops is wonderful
and while I never saw so much wine
and spirits used in my life as here and
morality so low as here, yet our boys
behave themselves as they should and
they feel their responsibility like true
