ALMOST TRUE.

Commenting the Delegateship contest, the Dis patch, which two and a half months ago contained alleged dispatch, saying that Wckersham had been in Delegate to Congress, says:
 "The Empire seeks to
 vey the impression that report
 has been made and to mislead
 the people of Alaska and persuade
 them to believe that SulzeT may
 yet be declared to have been le-
 gally elected"
 That is better than the Dispatch usually does. It is almost true. If it had omitted the "mslead' it would be the exact truth. NO REPORT HAS BEEN MADE. No knows what the report will be when made or whether not there will be more than report.

THE W. S. S. DRIVE.

In last weeks issue of The journal
Mayor Wescott made strong appeal to
the citizens of Belfast and certain Waldo
county towns to 60 over the top in sub
scribing their respective allotments of
the W. S. S. call. Thus far Waldo coun-
ty, once sneered at as "poor bleeding
Waldo" has gone over the top in men
and in money for each and every war
purpose. She is no poorer in purse and
richer far in pride, which she IS Justly
entitled to feel. We must not mar
our patriotic record now. Let us remem-
Der that this is safe Investment and
principal and interest are both payable IN
four years. There may be some incon-
venience in subscribing for this loan but
the loss, if any, will be as nothing COM
pared with the satisfaction of hearing
the plaudit, well done Waldo county,
The drive is to close in little more than
two weeks, and we should enter upon a
new year with a good war record.

DISARMAMENT

One of President Wilson's now famous
peace points calls for guarantee for
the reduction of national armament to
the lowest point consistent with domestic
safety Our people almost without ex-
ception agree that ornaments should be
reduced, but they will never consent that
foreigners sitting at peace table in
France may fix for them the point con-
sistent with domestic safety" nor will
England, France or Italy allow us to fix
this point for them. Therefore, reduction
of armament will not be seriously con-
sidered at the peace table and what the

President said in his message shows that
he does not expect it to be considered.
He says:
"T take it for granted that the Con-
aress will carry out the naval program
which was undertaken before we entered
the war. The secretary of the navy has
submitted to your committees for au-
tborization that part of the program
which covers the building plans OF the
next three years. These plans have been
prepared along the lines and in accord
ance with the policy which the Congress
established, not under the exceptional
conditions of the war, but with the IN
tention of adhering to definite method
of development for the navy. earnestly
recommend the uninterrupted pursuit OF
that policy. It would clearly be unWlse
for US to adjust our plans to future
world policy as yet undetermined.
The building program to which Mr..
Wilson refers above, was submitted to
Congress By Mr.. Daniels, Secretary of
the Navy, and calls for an expenditure
of 5000, 1000, 600 during the next three
wears. In this program is the proposed
building of five superdreadnaughts SIX
battle cruisers and 140 other smaller war
ships. It being thus of record that this
is the administration idea of the phrase
"consistent with domestic safety, as lar
as the navy is taken into consideration,
we do not see how Mr.. Wilson can have
much to say in Europe, about disarmlng.
ENGLAND will not weaken her navy She
has dependencies to guard and perhaps TO
defend in about every quarter OF the
world She has London to safeguard.
ONLY a few months ago the Germans
pushed their way so near that city that
it's people heard the thunder OF hosthe
cannon. London is the heart of England
and when that heart is pierced the British
Empire will die. That heart can only be
reached by sea, and here vast fleet Will
continue to protect it. France, now ex-
hausted and poor, can increase her naval
force but slowly, but she will not forget
that Germany still lies on her eastern
border and in another generation may
again attack her She will increase her
fleet to the extent of her ability.
Italy dares not cut down her naval
force because her neighbors, now con-
uuered, are still numerous and hostlle'
Austro-Hupeary are at her doors while
Germany and Turkey are not Tar away.
Sometime the so-called Central Powers
are likely to make another dash for the
sea and the probabilities are that it will
be made via Italy Many of the German
people now believe this should have been
the chosen route in 1914. Huge navles
are expensive to maintain even when
held in watchful waiting for future pos
sible exigencies. 1t may be wise to pro-
vide it but whe Their wise or unwise each
great nation of the world will continue
to construct, equip and man the armies
of the sea and air. The land armies Will
be rapidly demobi,ized to the extent
which each nation deems consistent
with domestic safety" This, at least,
they will be compelled to do to cut down
expenses and by the necessity to restore
the productive needs of the respective
nations which have been at war.

THE MAKING Of
4 FAMOUS
MEDICINE
How Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound
Is Prepared For
Woman's Use.

A visit to the laboratory where this
successful remedy is made impresses
even the casual locker on with the reli-
ability, accuracy, skill and cleanliness
which attends the making of this great
medicine for woman's ills.
Over $50, 900 pounds of various herbs
are used annually and all have to be
gathered at the season of the year when
their natural juices and medicinal SUBJ
stances are at their best.
The most successful solvents are used
to extract the medicinal properties from
these herbs.
Every utensil and tank that comes in
contact with the medicine is sterilized
and as final precaution in cleanliness
the medicine is pasteurized and sealed
in sterile bottles.
1t is the wonderful combination of
roots and herbs, together with the
skill and care used in it's preparation
which has made this famous medicine
so successful in the treatment of
female ills.
The letters from women who have
been restored to health by the use of
Lydia E. Pinkham'z Vegetable Com
pound which we are continually pub
fishing attest to its virtue.

Get the Most Out OF Your Food.

The digestive organs absolutely need
the influence of pure blood for the proper
performance of their functions. Persons
that sleep in small, ill-ventilated rooms
complain of little or no appetite in the
morning and of disagreeable dryness of
the mouth and throat. Why2 Because,
as a result of breathing air that is i'm
pure, their blood is impure and fails to
give their digestive organs the stimulus
they must have for perfect work. It is
necessary that we should have pure blood
if we want to get all the good out of what
we eat that there is in it and to get it
comfortably. Hoods Sarsaparilla is dis
tinguished for making pure, rich vitalized
blood, perfectine the digestion and build-
ing up the whole system. Get it today.

In France, they made his bier;
In the worlds great strife, he gave his life
For home, and country dear,
And has paid full price in sacrifice

With trusting heart, from wars great

He sailed for unknown pier
Where the angels wait, with souls elate,
Beyond a grief or tear.
And on fairer shore, we'll meet once more

Friend Wilhelm:
/ see by my asbestos copy of the
Berlin Lokal-Anzeiger that you
broke silence recently west of the
battlefield of Cambria and asked
one of your officers "What have /
not done to preserve the world from
these horrors?" Don't you know
what folks will say to that, Will
helm?
1t is sure to bring up how you did
not let Austria accept Serbia's abb
iect surrender of her national rights
to preserve peace. And that you
did not accept England's offer to
arbitrate and save the world from
war.
Then, besides, my dear Willie,
everybody knows by this time that
you haven't treated Belgium in a
way to make for early peace. You
remember l kept warning you that
this is good frightfulness but bad
business. You know you did not
leave very many homes standing in
the parts of France and Italy and
Russia and Rumania where you
have been. This kind of business
doesn't preserve the world from
horrors and you can't expect to
make folks believe it does. Besides
you have not spared the lives of
neutrals who happened to be below
your bombers or above your sub
marines. You have not kept your
Bernstorffs from burning in Amer-
ca and your Won Luxburgs from
Sinking without a trace"
Another thing, my dear boy, you
haven't got off the neck of the Ger
man people long enough to let them
make peace. The one greatest
thing you have not done to preserve
the world from these horrors is to
give up the idea Of piling enough
dead German soldiers and suffering
German citizens to climb to that
high throne of world power you
covet. OF course, / understand
when you asked that question in
public you were just trying to keep
them fooled, but it don't strike me
that you put anything over by say
ing it.
Yours for the best way out,

PROBE MISSIONS HEAD

A Pacific Port, Jan. 12.-The status of Juan T. Burns, head of a Mexican mission to Japan, who is said to be under indictment in New York on charges of passport frauds during his term as Mexican consul general there, was investigated today by federal au- thorities while Burns remained aboard a Japanese steamer riding at anchor here.
 Burns defied naval officers, it was stated, and has refused to reveal the nature of his mission to Japan. He invoked the protection of the Jap anese flag which the vessel carried and refused to leave the boat for fear he might be arrested.
 Burns said he had been liberated on $10,000 bond on the charges in New York and that he feared the gov ernment would cancel this bond and that he would be rearrested if he came ashore. Several leading Mexi- cans accompanied Burns.
