WASHINGTON AND LINCOLN

The month of February marks the birthday anniversary of two great Americans-Washington and Lin coin. While the manner of observ- ing these days depends to a great extent upon local conditions, it is nevertheless suggested that especial significance be attached to them on this occasion and that this atten- tion be not alone confined to form al program commemorative of the event, but that the month preceding be used as to give every child in the territory an opportunity to know as much as possible about the life work and ideals of these two men.
 We Americans have no occasion to set up as our national heroes either statesmen who have by in trigue and with lying tongues so maneuvered that adjoining states and nations have become vassals to us, or generals who have led our armies in great wars of conquest in

FINAL REPORT
 GRAND JURY

Az. NOME. ALASKA. Aril 8, 1918, HON. VIM. A. HOLzHEINER,
 Judge of the District Court of the U. 8. for the Secoud Division, District of Alaska
 Sir:--The Grand Jury would report that: in accordance with instructions given by you on the first day of April 1918, it has given consideration to all matters laid before it by the District Attorney and all other matters brought to its attention, which it con- sidered proper for investigation.
 The results of dts deliberations are evidenced by the bills and matters which have been presented to the Court from time to time while the jury was in session.
 The Grand Jury has visited the Fed eral Jail and the Nome City jail and find them apparently in good sanitary condition and we'll conducted. It has also visited the offices of the Clerk of the District Court, the United States Marshal and the District Attorney, and the U. s. Commissioner, and find such offices apparently well ordered and efficient in the performance of their various duties.
 The Grand Jury would, however, .,e office be removed to the District Court House, and there become part of the government machinery, if proper ar engagements can be made.
 During the course of it's sessions the jury found that the room that was being occupied was entirely lacking in secrecy and ventilation, and it became necessary, with the consent of the Court, to transfer its meetings to make-shift quarters in the Federal Jail. It was also found that the Judge's chambers were in the same condition as regards secrecy us the Grand Jury room.
 The Grand Jury will, therefore, re- commend that the Court direct the Custodian of the building to at once fix the walls and doors in these rooms so that they will be be sound proof and afford the sec- recy that is essential to the work done in them. Adequate means of ventila- 1ion should also be provided. The

Grand Jury Is also of the opinion that 8 suitable room for the Grand Jury should be provided on the third floor of the Court House and the present Grand Jury room should be reserved for, the use of the Petit jury.
 The Grand Jury desires to emphati- cally bring to the attention of all cit izens that, under the conditions of war which now prevail, 1t Is their duty as good and patriotic Americans, to re- port to the officers of the law, all un- patriotic and pro-German acts and ut- terances and to furnish such officers the evidence which will bring such enemies of our country to justice.
 Such being the duty of all good citizens, it applies with far greater force to public officers, who are en- trusted with the enforcement of the law, and all such officers should, both in their personal acts and in the per- fOTmance Of their Ott1ctal duties, show at all times a spirit of unqualified American patriotism.
 Desiring that the views of the Grand Jury on this subject be given full publicity, it would recommend that the Court and the U. s. Marshal embody these views in letters, a copy of which shall be addressed to all officers under their respective jurisdic- tion, in the outlying places in the sec ond Judicial District, of the Territory of Alaska.
 Respectfully Submitted,

 Foreman of the Grand Jury.

WAR-SAVING CERTIFICATES, THRIFT STAMPS, AND
 WAR-SAVINGS SOCIETIES

The United States is not a thrifty nation. Statistics show that she
 stands at the bottom of the list of the nations of the world in matters of thrift. Americans
 earn plenteously but spend lavishly
 and in many cases foolishly. To
 what extent this American tendency contributes to a condition where the majority of the citizens of the
 country are poor, a few slightly
 more than self-suporting through life and still less wealthy, it is not now possible to say although there is no doubt that the factor of thrift
 lessness plays leading part. At
 the present time there is especial need that the great lesson of thrift be brought home to the American
 people and there are no agencies
 which are in position to inculcate
 ideals of thrift, economy and nation al service to the extent that is poc- sible in the schoolsofAmerica. A
 great opportunity is now presented
 to impress upon the minds of stud
 ents the fact that not only the sue
 cessful termination of the war, but
 the future welfare and strength of
 the Nation, depend upon the thrift
 and savings of each individual citi- zen.

ing history In Great
Offensive
(By International News Service)

WASHINGTON, July 1S.-The
War Department late this afternoon
received from Gen. Pershing official
confirmation of press dispatches
telling of the great counter-offensive
launched today by the French and
American troops between the Aisne
and the Marine rivers.
Gen. Pershing also confirmed the
fact that the American soldiers ad>
vanced with the greatest dash and
gallantry and were still advancing
when last heard from.
In an official statement Secretary
of War Baker said:
"The War Department has re-
ceived from Gen. Pershing official
confirmation of the opening of a
counter attack along the lines car
ried in the newspaper dispatches.
American troops are participating
both in complete divisions and in un-
its, in association with the French
troops.
"The first detectives seem evident
ly to have been obtained, and while
no accurate account has been made,
it is clear that many prisoners, guns
and other war material have fallen in
to our hands"
War Department officials made no
effort to conceal their elation over
the turn the situation on the western
front has taken. They made it plain
that the latest advices showed the Al
lied activities have progressed far be-
yond the limits of a counter attack
that the really constitute great coun
ter-offensive, the final result of
which they would not predict.
They believed that the moral ef-
feet upon the Germans, suffering a
complete setback for the first time
at the beginning of an offensive,
would be incalculable and might in
the end lead to a general rout of the
enemy forces.
American troops had gained entire
possession of their sector on the south
bank of the Marine, Gen. Pershing re-
ported today, under date of yesterday.
German thrusts against the Ameri-
can positions northwest of Chateau
Thierry were completely broken up"
