TROTzKY READY
 ID SIGN PEACE
Russians Unable to Stem Tide of Ad- vancing Germans-Gives Ger
 many Occupied Territory

LONDON, Feb. Russia will be forced to sign the onerous condi tiOns imposed by Germany. in the sep arate peace council at BrestLitovsk, says an officials Russian statement re- ceived today designed by Foreign Minister Trotzky and Premier Lenine.
 The statement says that owing to the futility of resistance the council of peoples commissioners have been forced to declare their readiness to sign the peace terms dictated by the delegations of the quadruple alliance at Bre,t Litovsk
 Acceptance of these terms gives Germany control of all conquered territory i'll the former Russian em- pire west of the present battle line. including Riga. Moon Island, Poland, Lithuania. and the Baltic provinces.
 Under the German terms the Rus sian provinces composed of several natiOnalities along the Baltic will pass under the TeutOnic protectorate. Russia will be forced to pay an in demnity to Germany of $4.OOO,OOO,- 900 after the war is over.
 From Riga to as far south as Lutsk the German armies are advancing eastward into Russia. The Germans have entered Dvinsk The Russians have amde several feeble efforts to stem the advancing horde of Teu- tons. but the unOrganiZed army has been unable to cope with the disci- plined troops of the Kaiser.
 An attempt was made to blow up the large stone bridge across the Dvinsk river. but the advancing Teu- tons frustrated the dynamiters.
 Germany is also advancing to Uk- raine in the south. and will probably occupy kiev on the pretext of aiding the government to suppress the activ- ities of the Bolsheviki. who took tho town by assault Monday.

THEY INITIATE THE
 CARPENTER AT NAZARETH

According to a writer in the Alas kan Churchman Clergymen in Alaska do not seem to lack ability as carpent- CTS. Bishop Rowe heads the list. for many is the stroke of work that he has put in on Mission buildings. If all were known of Dr. Chapman's work in this direction. it would take many a page of The Alaskan Churchman to properly unfold the story. The Arch deacon Is also to be included. for he tells of much of such work that he has done. Then along come the workers at Ketchikan and Valdez, Reverend Messrs. Kelley and Finn. and tell of being really first class carpenters. The writer knows that MT. Drane. of Cinema, has recently helped to erect the Chapel at Cinema Native Village. and also cherishes the belief that he can saw along . line. and drive a nail without mashing both hands. Won't somebody organize branch of the Carpenters Union for the Clergy of the Church in Alaska?

NEW SCHOOL BUILDING

NEW SChOOL bOAA~ANu
 The school board has not aban- doned it's attempt to secure a new school building the coming year, and negotiations are still under way look ing to the purchase of bonds if the plan carries at the next city election. S. A. Temple, who Is now in Seattle has ascertained that there will be no trouble to float municipal bonds at a low rate of interest, provided it is the wish of the electors to bond the town. The proposed building will be of concrete or some other inflammable material. two stories in height with a basement, and will be one of the best buildings in the territory. It has been found impossible to repair the old buildings and the schools are bad ly cramped for room. It is also a source of great expense to have the primary grades separated from the other grades, necessitating the use of two buildings. and providing no play grounds for the children
 The plan Is feasible on account of the territory paying 75- per cent of the expenses of the schools, allowing the city to pay the principal and in- tsrest on q new building and still ex- pend less city money than in previous years.
