A GENUINE PIONEER

John Green Brady, one of the first gov ernors of the territory, has died at Sitka after over forty years residence in Alaska He was surely genuine oldtimer, if there ever was one. He was born in 1S48 and came to AL aska in 1877, twenty-nine years old, as mis- sionary with Dr. Sheldon Jackson. Twenty years later, in 1897, he was appointed govern or of the territory, and held this office for twelve years, until 1909, long term of ser vice for the land in which he lived SO long. Without doubt he probably lived as long in this territory as any American, for forty years is good long time. He was seventy years old at the time of his death, one of the trail blazers of the country, hardy pioneer, who helped to open up the territory for those of us who have come after,
 It is to these old-timers that we owe much |of the prosperity that we en joy today They came into the country when it was young and exceedingly rough, and withstood the hard ships and trials of the genuine pioneer life, blazing the way for the thousands that have followed John Green Brady was one of these who came into the country among the first Americans and who stayed with it. He did not leave after he had obtained all that he could from Alaska, but lived here for the rest of his life, serving as best he could the land of his choice. He lived here and died here, after long illness, one of Alaska's genuine pioneers.

COMRADES

Admiral Beatty, commander of the Brit lsh fleet, made an address of farewell to the American navy before it left European waters for America. In this speech he commented especially upon the feeling of true comrade- ship that has existed between the British and American sailors, how they had worked to- gether during the war without hitch and had felt this spirit of comradeship existing be- tween the two bodies of men.
 This same feeling doubtless exists be- tween the soldiers who have fought bravely side by side during the war It is evidence of the closer bond that will be felt between all the nations who fought against Germany that civilization might go onward and upward; a closer and better understanding, that will help nightly to make the peace established at the conference lasting one.
 There are many rumors rife that there may be trouble with Great Britain over the question of the freedom of the seas The fact that this feeling of comradeship exists between the two naves makes it almost sure that any hard feeling that may arise over the question will amount to nothing more than ruffled dignity and outraged feelings. In fact it is very doubtful if there could be war between the two countries, after fighting side by side against common menace for the past year The working people of both countries are more closely associated than ever before, and when the soldiers come back from the war they will bring with them better understand ing of the British Tommy than was ever had in this country before, which will help to in sure against any future trouble. Whatever the government of Great Britain might do |concerning trouble with the United States, it is extremely improbable that it could come to war with Uncle Sam because of the feel ing that the British Tommy must have for the American soldiers who came over there ill France and saved the day for them when they were hard pressed. The common people of Great Britain know Americans now, from their contact with the American soldier, and because of this knowledge they would be very reluctant, if not absolutely against, entering upon any course that would lead to trouble with the men whom they have come to know and respect as comrades and good friends
 The soldiers and sailors both have felt this feeling of good friendship with the Brit ish fighters, and Admiral Beatty expresses the consensus of opinion of the American as we'll as the British navy when he says that true |comradeship exists between the two navies as the result of their work together against the common enemy
