HE MUST HAVE SUPPORT

President Wilson is representing the United States on one of the most important and delicate missions that has ever arisen in the history of the country. He will be the leader of the world at the coming conference, and will help to decide some of the most i'm portant and delicate questions that have ever come up before any body of men. At this cr- tical time he needs and deserves the support of the entire country. Congress should be be- hind him to man. All partisanship should be laid aside, and all the legislators should unite in their support of the chief executive while he is on this important mission.
 There has been tendency among cer- tain members of both houses of congress to oppose the administration at every turn. This has not been confined alone to republicans, for there have been some democratic members who have consistently worked against the President. These men seemed to have person. al ambitions which they wished to satisfy at the expense of all unity and cooperation that were so necessary for the success of the plans of the administration. All of this should be laid aside at this time, for America should be able to present solid united front to the rest of the world that expects it to point the way to future peace. President Wilson is regard ed as the leader of the allies on the question of permanent peace. He will be hampered greatly in the consideration of the weighty questions that will come to him if he cannot feel behind him the solid support of the people of the United States.
 Popular opinion is with him, as he takes his place in the conference, and if the peo- pie of the country had their way, congress would not be able to do anything that would result in hampering him or causing him any embarrassment in the discharge of the duties and responsibilities that rest upon him at this at this time, and the ovation that is being &C., corded him wherever he goes in Europe shows how those other allied countries regard him. Surely he must have the undivided support of the United States, as whole; surely he de- serves it and needs it that he may represent this country to the very best of his ability at this time of world crisis

CHROMATIC
 CHRONICLE
(By A. Al

\Dy A. A.J
 Several oldtime sourdoughs formed a circle around the hot stove down at old man Hale's son Homer's gro cery store on lower Front street one bitter cold evening during our latest spell of frigidness. It was actually 55 below that night and the large front windows were opaque sheets of sparkling white frost. The old. timers had their pipes working well and everything seemed propitious for reminiscence. They discussed the old familiar matter of goih outside. Each had a day and da,u set for quitting this frozen north!" This God-forsaken country is too cold for white man to live in!" "A mans crazy that'll stay in this d--n fro zen country-it's only matter of time until the marshal takes him for long free ride!" etc, etc. Of course there was the usual joshing which invariably goes with aforesaid stuff. viz: You couldn't set the world afire. Bill. if you went out side.' You'd be right back. Bob what's the use?'
 Talking about quitting the coun- try" began the one called Bob. who was seated on a dried apple box. clad in long coonskin coat, earfiaps of his muskrat cap hanging loosely. his heavy mackinaw pants tucked into high-laced rubber pacs, legs crossed and elbow resting on a bot tom shelf. reminds me of something happened over on the Yukon in early days. There was a young Kobuk sQuaw come down from the Arctic slopes to Fort Gibbon. You'd ought to see the way that Kobuk chicken took to civilization at Fort Gibbon. All the clothes she'd ever wore in her life was made out of furs-like caribou parkas--she hadn't even saw calico. She never went back with the tribe and white mans life look ed awful good to her.
 "She sent outside and got the swellest kind of white sQuaw' rags boys! oh. boys White women along the Yukon them days was very few, let me tell you. Belle was the only name she had in the world until she drifted up to Circle, where she mar ried full-grown. two-fisted white man. And that sQuaw certainly took to the white mans ways at a great rate. Belle and her husband open. ed roadhouse on the Yukon, on the winter mail trail One day a musher, who had known Belle before she was married, stopped at the road house. Hello, Belle; how is every thing?' he inquired, and Belle assum> ed the air of the old sourdough pros pector who has been unlucky in his search for the elusive payStreak- (and she had picked up the white mans talk pretty good. too. had Belle)-'Oh. not like it here at all; this country too cold; I'm going outside
 Move back from the stove there, will you. and open the draft" said Homer J., opening the stove door, "sos can put in some wood"

REACHED SHORE
 AND THEN DIED
(By Mail)

VANCOUVER, B. C., Tuesday. Nov 12.-That Frank Gosse, one of the of ficers of the Canadian Pacific liner Princess Sophia. lost in Lynn canal October 25, reached shore alive and then succumbed to exhaustion, is the report brought by the steamship Prin- cess Alice which arrived here yester- day with the bodies of 157 victims of the appalling marine disaster
 When the Alice was in Juneau. re- ceiving the bodies, small boats prot the report from the scene of the wreck. The party which recovered Gosse's body, found footprints in the sand near the spot where his remains were discovered on the shore. How he managed to battle his way to land in the great storm raging, is a mys. tery. One of the parties also found the bodies of four of the Sophia's walters who are believed to have reached shore on a raft.
 .E. Bodies Brought In
 Confirmation of the fact that the majority of those bodies picked up were of people who had been smoth. cred by oil came in with the Alice last night. The ship brought the bullion taken from the salvage steam. CT Tees, amounting to more than $100.000. which the latter vessel had taken from the sunken boat.
 Particularly sad is the case of L. J. Dibble who has waited ten days to take his brothers body home to Sas. katoon. Three weeks prior to the w. c. Dibble left Saska. toon for Vancouver with his wife, four daughters and son. The trip on the Sophia as fireman was the first position he held here and five days after the vessel was wrecked his 16-year-old son died from pneu. nionia. l.. J. Dibble is now in the city to take both bodies, his sister. In.law and her four daughters back to Saskatoon.

THE health board of Nenana brands as wholly false the report that all telegrams re- ceived there are being fumigated before de- livery. It is expected, however, that the long distance telephone service will be discontinued during the quarantine. as someone in Fair banks might cough or sneeze into the trans hitter and thus menace the lives of the rail- road villagers.

ATTACK IN PERSON

Washington.--General Pershing per-

ican advance which resulted In the
capture of Cantigny with heavy Ger
man losses. This information was
given to the senate military affairs
committee at their weekly conference
with the war council.
The council regarded the situation
on the western front as materially Inn
proved. Not only had the Germans
been halted everywhere, but counter
attacks had netted the allied armies
substantial gains. they said. II was
generally felt that the allies had now
brought up sufficient strength to hold
the German advance.
