SKAGNAY DIARIES
 CONSOLIDATED

An important deal was made to- day when A. J. Baker and George Brown sold out their dairy, The Sunnyside, to Henry Seeman Df the Pioneer Dairy. If there was anything that Skagway could feel justly proud of, it was her dairies and the amalgamatioE of them in to one big dairy will come as a sur prise to not only Skagway but to the people along the whole length of the w. P. & Y. Route, as well as Atlin and the lakes.
 MT. A. J. Baker is a pioneer of Alaska and Yukon, having come here from Washington in the early days and for several years operat- ed saw mills in Bennett, Atlin and other points along the Yukon. For the past ten years he has had q dairy here. About six years ago MT. George Brown became associ tt d with him in the business and until today they have conducted an
 to date, perfect dairy.
 MT. Seeman is one of the old stand-bys of Skagway and has run the Pioneer dairy for a number of years and has worked Up a large business, both in Skagway and over the line. The people in this com munity as well as those in adjacent territory can rest assured that the service will be just as good and that the product Of the combined fairies will be the same as when served by two separate concerns.
 The Baker-Brown herd of cattle consisted of ten fine bred Jersey and Holstein cows and a blooded bull. These combined with the Pioneer herd will make the largest dairy in Alaska.
 Mir. Baker has not given out his future plans but he will probably go to Nebraska on visit to a brother, whom he has not seen for mPny years. There he will rest up before engaging in any other business.
 Mir. Brown will probably remain in Skagway.

with operating a publication, for the paper is bearing the expense. These items do not include the war program, the Liberty loan. War Savings, Red Cross and other as sociatiOns, as these bodies are not trying to build a partisan mailing list, nor the clubs, organizations or enterprises engaged in perfectly fine work. nationally or otherwise. Neith' CT does it include the political fac tors, the proclamations, the hun dred and one patriotic efforts that are extended, the ordinary commer- cial drain, and the like.
 On top of that we have to take care of the news of the day.
 It js all good. There is no kick not even when Burleson, the post master general, comes back and blandly informs the press, in con- sideration for all its good service the postal rates will be raised regu- larly until 1920. Fine!
 Under the circumstances, how ever, it may be necessary to cut down considerable space to con serve the paper situation, and all agencies should abide by the deci- sion, temper the wind to the shorn lamb" cut out the bunk, swallow the speeches, eliminate the propaganda, get down to the meat in the nut, and follow the game as the newspaper originally was intend ed, and everything will be all right.
 There was a nut over in Eng land a few years ago who figured that 8 newspaper :n tabloid form was the best hit with the public. HIS theory lasted about thirty days. But this might be the time for it. If paper must come in small chunks so must the bunk of theorists. Every process is worth a trial.
 If We must cut out the consump- tion of paper, public wind-jammers and other department heads should be advised on special order, effect i've immediately, that it is not con duciYe to winning the war to in dulge in the wear and tear on i'm againation. Pipe dreams must be conserved, bright ideas must be saved, hot air must be hooYerized, the Official Bulletin and the Con- gressional Record should be cut off the exchange list-with pleasure and the bombardmcnt of words must go into lull until all of us get a breathing spell.-Pocatello Tribune.

FILfp1Nos IN TERRI.
 TORY ARE LOYAL

That the Filipinos who have come to America seeking to better their conditions are loyal to the country and are alive to worldwide politi- cal situation is indicated in let ter that was received recently from Max B. Carig, who is working in a cannery at Chatham, Alaska. Boil ed down the communication ex- presses the following sentiments says the Juneau Dispatch:
 "We Filipinos are loyal to the Stars and Stripes because We req lize that the basic principles of A mericanism stand for equal rights and justice to all. We are there fore glad of the opportunity to show that We appreciate the bless ings to be enjoyed under the protec- tion of the American flag. We are proud of our allegiance and re- solve to be always found worthy and true to the trust imposed upon us.
 We must all move, but We must all keep together. If We be true friends of freedom, We must stand together and worK together until victory is achieved, regardless of what sacrifices must be made to down the Kaiser and the black ban ner he bears. We Filipinos realize that liberty for all people of this earth is at stake ard firmly resolve to do our full duty, even unto death, towards downing Prussian- ism on the one hand and support ing the flag of freedom on, the oth- CT hand"

WRITES OF HOTEL
 MIXUP AT WHITEHORSE

One of the men who left here with the first Yukon selective draft writes from SkagwnY to Dawson re garding the hotel affair at White horse as follows:
 Sections 1 and of the company were billeted in the White Pass hotel, and sections and were billeted in the Commercial hotel. Some ofathe boys found it necessary to sleep four in T room at the White Pass hotel. The rate at the Commercial hotel was $1 head. At the White Pass hotel the proprietor tried to charge $50. They all slept there the first night. Next morning, in a bunch, they walked out and found rooms aboard one of the boats in port, refusing to pay the sum nf $1.5O each. This started rumpus and during the day on two occasions the boys marched into the White Pass saloon, about forty strong, and ordered drinks. The keeper was so busy dishing up the booze that he did not wait to make sure of his money. Result: The boys thanked him and beat il without paying anything. That eve ming some of them went back to give him piece of their mind and he fired a chair at some of them. That started a fight and they had quite a time of it. Peo- Die in Whitehorse sided in with the boys. ."-Dawson News.

DAWSON POST OFFICE
 AND CUSTOMS GAssED

The most offensive offensive in the history of Dawson was perpe- trated on the morning of July Is on the Dawson postoffice and GUS toms office, says the Daily News of that city.
 That ancient standby of the Teu- tonic tribes was tho weapon, and with it the whole force of the two offices was gassed, and everybody who went near the place was gassed and many victims outside the offic- es are still falling under the dire at tack upon the olfactory nerves of the denizeus of the burg. Limburger cheese was the weapon. Someone shipped the cheese in the mail. It then had to go through the post office. The weather was hot, and the cheese asserted its Genius. It soaked up many newspapers with the perfume, and the papers have been scattered throughout the coun- try, carrying the delectable balm wherever they go.
 Some silk neither garments for fail ones also in the mail took on the same sweet perfume, and there are some people in Dawson who are sure today they know what it is, as Uncle Rube said at the front, '"To le gassed, b'gosh."

EDITORIAL
PRUNING THE DOPE

Now we are to cut out the good old exchange list Of the newspaper office, that fine little medium of gossip that is infinitely as enter tainins as the best tea party ever devised by our grandmothers or present day knitting units.
 The bureau of public information, fer example, spends 8 paper for every purpose but for the uninter- estinE and inconseQuential depart ment reports of the swivel chair corps.
 The bureau of public inGorma- ton. Tor example. spend vast amount of money in maintaining a publicity corps that gives no vital items Of publicity. and the Creel magazine is thrown into the waste basket along with the other rot for which the public IS paying, as it ronveys no information" It is an lbortiye production.
 In today's mail were twenty or thirty requests for space, as well as certain propaganda that would have to be paid for by any institu- ton that figured tha project was worth the cost. Reports and re ports come in, and there isn't an item of interest in the entire lit- ter. This is all printed at the government printing office, where something like 45OO printers are employed, and where millions are spent annually, and from which plant tons of stuff is franked daily to the consumers.
 But for conversation papers are asked to cut off the exchange list, and to quit sending free copies to anybody, including the boys in France.
 h the general plan of cOnserva- ton Of paper 1t might be wise here after to conserve space, and by illustration a few Of tho regular requests for publicity are cited:
 Revenue department-"You are requested to kindly give the enclosed the widest publicity possible" e 10 columns asked.)

PARIS E GAY
 DESPITE MAR

Berne.-The correspondent Of the Berne Bund sends his paper a de scription of life in Paris, which is published under the caption, '"War Life in France; Paris as It Eats "ad Saves" The article says; lH." .
 "Who would have thought possible before the war q world city in exist ence two days march behind the bat tie front? During the first war weeks, after the governments departure to Bordeaux, Paris had been somewhat deserted. But since then everything Is back. The big hotels never did better than just now. In the streets there is a traffic that has never been beaten. The stranger notices the maay uniforms; he thinks the French capital a big army camp, where mili- tary men from all corners of the world meet.

Used to Uniforms.

Used to Uniforms. -..'
 "The Parisian long ago became used to the uniforms and forgot that once there was a time when women were the only ones who added color to a street scene. Man gets used to every thing. After a while one found the dark streets quite natural. One paid the high war prices without blinking. One submitted to the necessity of sugar card and learned to get along with a moderate coal supply in win ter.
 Lately, however, the Parisian ex- perienced things that reminded him of the war rather impresslvely. The latest visit of German airplanes re- suited In energetic measures for pro- tection. At all the beautiful monu- mentS sand bags are piled high. On many large buildings tablets are posted saying there is bombproof cellar there and how many people 1t will shelter. When darkness appears Paris wraps itself in a blue veil. which Is very becoming. -.- G~.
 'The electric arc lights, the gas lan'i terms of all descriptions are painted blue. In tram cars, in the subway; in the suburban trains the light is blue, Brisk auto traffic is not without dal' ger under such circumstances.
 Practice Economy
 Measures of economy are now taken up in earnest. Who wants to drink sweet coffee In the cafe has to bring his own sugar or be satisfied with the. sacCharine tablet the walter will hand him. Cakes, pastry and candy are not made any longer. Confectioners are put entirely out of business. The tea houses, too, are in a bad fix. No more sugar or Sweetmeats, not even sand wiches, are to be had. And two francs for such cup Of tea Is pretty good, price. ... .sy ."ei
 "The authorities iggre everybody will be sensible enough to see that saving Is the patriotic duty of every non-combatant. Clever posters tell the. people transportation of food takes up cargo space that ought to be used for American troops and war material So every citizen can see he will hasten the arrival of American help and thus support the French pollu by his own moderation and abstemiousness." |,

FAVORITISM IS CHARGED

Washington, D. G., Mar. 2S.-The
house yesterday registered opposition
to the government loaning money to
tho farmers in any one section OF the
country in an effort to stimulate a
large grain production this year. A bill
designed to aid farmers Of the spring

entire countray. An effort to defeat
the measure after it was amended
failed by vote OF 142 to Jog, and the
house will continue its consideration
tomorrow
Before the measure was amended it
was attached as sectional legislation
by both democrats and republicans.
Chairman Lever, Of the agricultural
committee, in charge of the bill, said
the committee believed farmers OF the

drouth, while farmers in other sec

The bill carries an appropriation
Of $7,500,000 to be loaned to farmers

ceau told the army committee OF the
chamber of deputies today that the
moment was near when the reserves
9f the allies would enter into action
The great battle now being waged in
France would then take on a new
phase and, he added, there was every
reason to hope that the enemy would
not retain the benefit of the gains
made at such bloody price.
There was a settling down along the
British and French fronts, where the
Germans were trying to break through
and even within the last few hours
there had been noted slackening In
the enemys effort, he said.
The premier was before the COM

half. He dealt at length with the stu
alton and spoke with full confidence
in the future Strategical cOnsiderae
