their benefit, Surgeon-General Rupert Blue
has issued a special bulletin setting forth
the facts concerning influenza which ply
sicians must keep in mind. It contains the
following points:
"Infectious Agent-The bacillus influenza
Of Pfeiffer.
"Sources of Infection-The secretions
from the nose, throat, and respiratory pas
sages Of cases or of carriers.
Ejaculation Period-One to four days,
generally two.
'Mode Of Transmission-By direct con-
tact or indirect contact through the use Of
handl1erchiefs, common towels, cups, mess
gear, or other objects contaminated with
fresh secretions. Droplet injection plays an
important part.
'EPeriod Of Communicability- long al
the person harbors the causative organism
in the respiratory tract.
''Method Of Control-(a) The infected in
dividual and the environment.
Recognition of the Disease-By clinical
manifestations and archaeological findings.
"Isolation-Bed isolation of infected in
dividuals during the course Of the disease.
Screens placed between beds are to be
recommended
"Immunization- are used with
only partial success.
"Quarantine- None; impracticable.
Concurrent Disinfection- discharges
of the mouth, throat, nose, and other respira-
tory passages.
"Terminal Disinfection- Through clean
ings, airings, and summing. The causative is
short-ived outsied Of the host.
"(b) General Measures attendant Of
the case should wear a gauze mask. During
epidemics persons should avoid crowded as
semblages, street-cars and the like. Educa-
ton as regards the danger of promiscuous
coughing and splitting. Patients because
Of the tendency to development Of broncho-
pneumonia, should be treated in well-venti-
lated warm rooms'- LITERARY Digest.

THINGS WORTH REMEMBERING

Conceit is the downfall of more persons
than actual opposition.
Ignorance is a monster of such hideous
mein that to be hated needs but to be seen
and yet ignorant persons always rush in
where intelligent ones fear to tread.
When a person sets out to rule or ruin
others the would-be ruiner always gets COM
pletely ruined
The smaller the person the more noise he
or she makes, but a noise never hurts.
No, money does not make the mare run,
as goes the time-worn adage, but money
makes the man make the mare run and as
the moving motive.
Hook the Kaiser had long and inter-
esting run the world over but before many
more weeks Hawk the Kaiser will be con-
sdered doubly appropriate.
A black skin in the human family may
be a mark Of inferiority, but black skin
in an animal is as highly appreciated by
human being as a white one.
Right has an awfully hard time to pre-
vail, but it will do so if you will only give
it time enough.
Anyone who is afraid to admit he or she
is wrong when such is fact is either
fool or a knave or both.
When persons go to a funeral to see who
is there and to have visit with old friends
and to see how many flowers have been
sent for the occasion, then sooner or later
such persons will occupy the second vehicle
in a funeral procession and the sooner the
better.
It's lamentable weakness in the human
family that one, however vile he or she
may be, become the upper crust of saw
ciety'' as soon as such person or persons
acquire large sums Of money, though most
of it was obtained by questionable means.
Whether one was born on the north or
the south side of ditch should have little
or no influence in the makeup Of the per-
son, but in the United States it certainly
does

 LOCAL MEN

A largely attended and very entbus- iastic meeting of Republicans was held at the city hall last night for the pur- pose of formulating plans for the com ing territorial primaries, April 30, and the election to be held tn NUvemfsr.
 Local Committeeman, Dr. w H. Chase, called the meeting to order and in a short speech stated it's object, after which he was elected chairman. Thos. S. Scott, secretary, and Back Sapiro, treasurer. Upon motion of A. J. Adams the candidacy Gof Henry A. Slater for representative was en- dOrsed, George Dooley placed the name of James L. Galen before the gather for road commissioner and he was also endorsed. Frank H Foster pointed out the advantages of Corfuva and the Copper River valley working together to secure representation and upon his motion Joseph H. Murray, of Mccarthy, was endorsed for the legls- lature
 As there was an unusually Oig turn out of members of the c. o. P. it was decided to organize Republican club and the temporary officers were made permanent. All present signed the roll and pledged themselves t0 work for the nomination and election of the local candidates. Every Republican in this section is invited to become a member of the club and can do so by calling on Secretary Scott and signing the roll. The club adjourned to meet at the call of the chairman

 Recognizes American SaTenuth
 If we do not share the ;ight-heart- edness with which the problem of American military help is often set aside, we also consider certain that the United States cannot in the next few months Increase the very great morale and economic support which they have given the allies
 The Deutsche Tagos Zeitung in an article declares that all eyes are now focused on the west, and that the greatest battle of the war is now about to begin there '"We must not allow the belief to arise, however" il says, that the increase in our strength in the west will force the French to lay down their arms or the British to run away. It may come to this, of course, and Hindenburg said year ago, We are already doing it, my chil- dren.' Our emperor, the supreme war lord, has said that the decision is not to be sought. Will to victory and readiness for peace are combined in his words, If the enemy does not wish peace We must bring peace to the world by breaking in the gates of those who do not want peace, with mailed ffst and flashed sword.'"'

 Says Fleet win Participate
 With deep feelings of relief our troops on the western front are begin ming to realize that the days of trench warfare are almost at an end. Up and at the enemy at last. Our fear is free and we have the reserves at our dis posal. The great blow can now fall. Where and when? Those questions the enemy leaders are anxiously asking themselves. The reply is Whenever and whenever Hindenburg wishes. We know that he will choose the time and place that will lead to victory"
 The German fleet, too, is to partici- pate in the coming offensive, accord ing to the Tageblatt. The German fleet, relieved of anxiety and pressure III It's rear,' said this newspaper, "can now turn to the west with it's full strength The task of the British fleet, even if it is supported by it's allies, will be difficult. We have full faith in the German navy, which has so often exhibited it's will to victory and it's capacity to fulfill its duty"
