TRANSPORTING OUR TROOPS

The world has been astonished at the great number of American sol diers transported to Europe in the last half year. The number now approximates 100000, and the loss of life in transporting them has been almost infinitesimal.
 The success with which we have moved our troops from the scattered camps in this country and across 5000 miles of ocean to the battle front is great evidence of American efficiency. We have not only sur prised our enemies; we have sur prised our friends and ourselves.
 The British controller of shipping, Sir Joseph Maclay, speaks of this movement across the sea as "A transport miracle" We have been inclined to attribute this achieve HlSHl SOiely lO OUi navy anu Oui shipping, but the British controller speaks in high praise of the share the American railroads had in the work. He says:
 If the American railroads had not been operated with success the whole transport movement might have failed, because it was essential to quick transportation that the troops should be ready for the ships"
 Director General McAdoo seems justified in his statement that while the development of the policy of the railroad administration requires time, progress has been made toward the goal.

GERMAN VIEW OF CHRISTIANITY

Frederick Wilhelm Nietzche was one of the most noted of modern Ger man philosophers. How much has his philosophy affected the views and character of the Germans of today? Is not the answer written in the blood of the women and children, the old men of occupied France and Belgium? Are not the Lusitania victims witnesses to Ger man adoption of Nietzche's faith?
 Here is his indictment of Chris tianity:
 with this I conclude, and pro- nounce my sentence: I condemn Christianity. To me it is the great est of all imaginable corruptions. The church is the great parasite with it's anemic idea of holiness it drains life of all it's strength, it's love, and it's hope. The other world is the motive for the denial of every reality. I call Christianity the one great curse, the one great in- trinsic depravity, for which no ex- pedient is sufficiently poisonous, secret, underhand, to gain it's ends I call it the one immortal shame and blemish upon the human race"

ing and advancing market
 Our government has appealed to everyone to save tin. Every patriotic child now treasures the tin foil in which his gum comes wrapped. Save the tinfoil' is a Red Cross slogan. But Sylvester Howell will add to the worlds tin supply this year probably more tin than all the tin foil gathered by the Red Cross. Just let your mind consider for T moment the uses to which tin is nut and then contemplate how difficult is the recovery of waste tin. Most of the 'tin' of commerce is merely base of sheet iron or steel very thinly coated with tin, which once applied is almost certainly lost to , the worlds stock. Consider the utensils and appliances made of tin and it will be self-evident to you that the very utility of tin lies in the waste of it once it enters the arts. Unlike gold, silver or even copper or iron, the recovery of waste is difficult and expensive. | The millions of tin cans annually i packed are consigned to the dump | heap, useless and valueless in the main. There must be an ever-in- creasing supply of tin. to suffice for the worlds wasteful uses of it.
 Alaska, or at least that part of 1t here under consideration, will pro- duce tin more cheaply perhaps than any other country in the world, be- cause it is coupled with gold, and as the by-product of profitable gold mining operations. the influence Of price on production will be prac- | tically nil
 There should be for the whole of the Interior of Alaska more en- couragement for hope and more centainty of belief in its ultimate destiny in operations like this of Sylvester Howell's than in all the schemes of government-aided pro- jects that can be devised.
 It shows that out of the product of Alaska's resources come the means for their greater develop ment; that the faith of Alaskans in Alaska and her boundless possi-
 bilities is the sure source of her greatness and power.
 Sylvester Howell, we bow to you in acknowledgment of the greatness of your faith and the excellence of your works. May success crown your efforts. You deserve it.

to give him the requisite volume and fall. He has installed his thirteen miles of diversion canals. has built his gigantic Hume and attached to it his steel hydraulic pipe. His giants" are ready to begin their imitation of natures torrential erosive effects upon hillside and bottom land And all this has been accomplished only by an outlay of money that would have discouraged man less certain of his results.
 The steel pipe has been hauled into the country by way of Chitina and Fairbanks; the lumber for his fumes has had to be hauled by wagon over precipitous mountain road eleven and one-half miles, from a point about six miles below Hot Springs. All the food Tor his employees, the feed for his horses, has to be brought in over over the same route and the ore that he ships to the only tin shelter in the U. S., somewhere in New Jer- sey", must be hauled to the slough below Hot Springs by wagon, thence by motor launch to Olsen's landing, where it is picked up by steamers to be taken via St. Michaels to Seattle and thence to the Atlantic coast by rail.
 It needs neither prophet nor seer to predict the result of Sylvester Howell's operations. if his calcula- tions are as precise and accurate as his past history justifies one ;o expect them to be- All Alaskans know him for successful operator, man who has learned the mining game by mining in the Alaskan mines since his youth He has wrested wealth from her grudging and difficult hills, but unlike many others has chosen to devote {, at wealth to Alaska's development in- stead of taking it Outside for in- vestment in pleasure or profit-seek- ing enterprises. He has undertaken to give to Alaskan mining operations the imrortance of permanency
 And if he succeeds, as it IS sin cerely to te hoped he may and will what reflex effect will it have upon
 the Interior of Alaska?
 1 Let anyone who seeks answer tc
 that question find it in the history of Cornish and Welsh tin mines One need not dream to see visions of smelters arising where rail and river bring the coal and tin to,
 gether, nor to see busy lines of rails supplanting the corduroy
 wagon trails to the mines. The uses
 of tin, the growing demand for it
 the wasteful prodigality of it's use
 made necessary by the very nature
 of it's uses, guarantees for it a grow.

 In response, the Noorwik natives are preparing to go after the wild geese, both for their meat and their feathers. The natives will travel behind their reindeer on their trips to the huning grounds as those ami mals do not frighten the birds.

As Mr.. Hodge supported his family
solely by farming on his little place
near Harvin and the only visible
means Of support of these orphans
now is in their brother, John Gilbert
Hodge. Prominent citizens. aided by
the local board at Manning, are max

merely caused by autumn fires.
Officials in charge Of relief work
still are unable to make an accurate
estimate Of the material damage. 1t
was said however, that in this district
alone, fifty square miles had been
stripped clean Of timber, crops, live
stock and human habitation.
No further danger is anticipated,
although, the conflagTation continues
in isolated areas. Fires south and
southwest of Cass lake, driven by a
niHh wind were said to be gaining to-
night, with the city directly in the
path of the flames, but it was be-
licved efforts of the fire fighters
would prevent the fire from attaining
serious proportions.

the search for their dead, which
throughout the burned sections may
total 200.
Barred by the military authorities
from leaving the city, they wandered
between long lines o. bodies in the
improvised morgucs here, searching
for loved ones who have not been
heard from since the forest fires laid
waste this section Of Minnesota and
a portion of Northern Wisconsin four
days ago. Motor trucks brought in
night. During the past twenty four
hours the bodies of three hundred vic
tins have been found in the charrcd
No Mans Land, which before the fire
formed the smiling shores Of Moose
Lake and Kettle river. Adjt. Gen.
Rhinow tonight estimated that the
number of dead in the Moose Lake and
Kettle river regions alone might reach
500. There are believed to be nearly
500 dead in the adjoining regions.
The force Of rescue workers will
be doubled tomorrow, Gen. Rhinow
said. Up to this time it has been i'm
possible to search the great acres Of
