THE MARSEILLAISE

Ie sons of France, awake to glory.
Harry, bark, what myriads bid you rise.
Your children, wives and grandsires hoary,
Behold their tears and hear their cries!
Behold their tears and hear their cries!
Shall hateful tyrants' mischief breeding,
With hireling host, a ruffian hand,
Alright and desolate the land,
While peace and liberty lie breeding?
TO arms, to arms, We brave!
Tn avenging sworn unsheath!
March on, March on, all hearts resolved
On liberty or death!
With luxury and pride surrounded,
The vile insatiate despOts dare,
Their thirst for gold and power unbounded,
To mete and vend the light and air!
To mete and vend the light and air!
Like beasts of burden would they load us,
Like gods would they bid their slaves adore;
But man is man, and who is more?
They shall no longer lash an dgoad us.
TO arms, to arms, We brave!
TIL avenging sword unsheath!
March on, march on, all hearts resolved
On liberty or death!
O Liberty, can man resign thee?
Once having felt thy generous frame.
Can dungeon bolts and bars confine thee?
Or whips thy noble spirit tame?
Or whips thy noble spirit tame?
Too long this world has wept, bewailing
The blood-stained sword our conqu'rors WELD;
But freedom is our sword and shield,
And all their arts are unavailing!
To arms, to arms, We brave!
TIL avenging sword unsheath!
March on, march on, all hearts resolved
On liberty or death!

shown by the students and teach
ers.
Bv the progress it has made 1t is

war news and local news of import
ance to the school and public.
The editors of the different de-
partments have not yet been chosen,

pills are certain they will be at work
on the next edition.
Among many other well-written
and interesting articles are the fol-
lowing:
On Sept. 20 the student body OF
the Goldfield high-school held its
first official meeting of the year,
at which time nominations were
made for the various offices. The
meeting was presided over by Mar

lowed was an exciting one. Those

Marion Muth; vice president, Irene
Harper; secretary and treasurer,
Frank Dempsey; yell leader, Earle
Walther; sergeant at arms, Ira
Carter.
The Goldfield high-school is ar
ranging school orchestra under the
supervision of the music teacher,

considerable trouble in securing the
instruments and players and have
held but two meetings.
some of the instruments which
comprise the orchestra are a p1-
ano, organ, first and second violin,
two comets, one BASS and one a
drum, two clarinets and n from

THE CAPTURE OF SEDAN.

The capture of Sedan by the American troops in France was not only brilliant piece of work from a military viewpoint, Secretary Baker says, and important in it's results because many Ger man divisions from Metz and other centers their east from which they had been getting recruits and supplies but it has sentimental interest. It was at Sedan that Von Moltke and Bismarck sealed the doom of Little" Napoleon, and with it, of course the Sec ond Empire. The surrender Sedan marked the climax of the Franco Prussan War and the Franco Prussan War the cradle of the German En- pre, with which the present Kaiser tried to override the world. There need for further fighting and she knew it, when her army Emperor surren- dered at that place. The siege of Paris which fol- lowed was for the purpose of satisfying Prussian pride and for the further purpose of permitting the seeds that produced the German Empire to take firm root.
 It possibly was good thing for the French people that Prussan lust for and the that would follow carried the Germans to Paris and the capture of that city, for it might be that it required burden to create the French Republic
 It may be fortunate thing for the people of Ger many that the Allies not dominated by a Bis marck now. There a lot of people in America and England and France who would like to follow Pershng and Foch and Haig from Sedan to Berlin and repeat there what Bismarck did at Paris. How ever, if there be German Republic without it. thousands of useful lives will be saved and much property and products of art and labor conserved
 Whether not Pershing will leavel Sedan for Ger man territory and Berlin depends wholly upon Ger many. The German people will Be given the oppor- tunty in all probability the armistice will likely be signed before many hours elapse. If they make good use of it, the will soon be over. Otherwise 1t will be from Sedan to Berlin

CONFIDENCE IN ORGANIZATION.

The recent Alaska election a remarkable expres- sion of confidence in the Democratic organization in this Territory when all the recent political history considered The election of two years practically a battle. Dele gate Sulzer the election but the result was so close that it practically standoff. The House of Representatives about tie. The Democrats elected one Senator of four.
 Then it discovered that Governor who had proved failure in all respects, but who had queted the people and party members with assurances that be would retire the end of his first term and not be candidate for reappointment, endeavoring to get the office again. and it necessary as con dition precedent to securing good government in Alaska to get change in that office The result was
 terrific internal fight. The Wickersham forces rush ed into this contest with all the avdity of office hungry politicians and did all that clever with nothing else to do to make the conflict as damaging possible. But the Democrats of the Territory met the issue becomes Alaskans Without attempting to dodge sbirk they threw the deadwood into the discard, and made their party worthy of success.
 Then came an election contest during a time when people leaving the Territory and business was on the declinie The cost of living advancing and opportunities decreasing. The conditions furnished breeding ground for grouches It was under such circumstances that Wickersham, the catch-aIl for grouches caught the Republicans of the Territory when they not looking and grabbed their party nomination and leadership.
 Wckersham began in July and a slow tour the entire Territory nursed eyerybodys grouch couraged all sorts of divisions, misrepresened con- dtions blamed sulzer for everything got straight Re- pubIicans to howl party" wherever he could, and promised everything the disappointed and the am- bitfous.

Where one Senator out oi four chosen elected by the Democrats two years this year all three Divisions that have reported have returned Democratic Senators. And with the Demo- crats chosen, there nine and possibly ten Demo- Representatives, out of total of twelve re- ported
 While internal difficulties damaged the Democratic party Nome the First Third and Fourth D1vls- ions the voting population has shown its confidence in the Democratic party of Alaska organization men, associated together for the purpose of public service purpose of aiding in the pro gressive development of Alaska.
 The fact that this result attained by the alo patriotic Republicans is all the more com plimentary to those who have worked in season ana make the Democratic party useful instrument in the development of Alaska.
 And not only have the Democrats accomplished the task of making their party deserving organlza- tion for the advancement of Alaska the ground has been cleared for the Republicans of Alaska to create organization free from Wickersham and those seeking personal advantage that will be useful for the advancement of the Territory.

AMERICAS ACCOMPLISHMENT.

The Czecho-Slavs and the Jugo-Savs are to create at least two new Republics in Europe. The Hun garian Republic is already fairly in process of for nation. Bulgaria is considering Republican govern ment, and many Austrans. There are insist ent demands going up from all over Germany ln favor of republican government
 It may be too much to say that this republi- movement in Europe is the direct result of Amer ica's entrance into the war, and the position Of President Wilson in connection with it. President Wilson from the entrance of the United States in the that she would fight for the eXten- sion of democratic government. He has made it clear from the beginning that the war would end when democracy applied to that continent and not be- fore Europeans responding to that sentiment They making their purpose clear, because there IS not Republic there, formed in the process or formation, that does not point to President Will son as its patron and the United States its pat tern.
 The has been costly to the United States costly in blood and treasure. But if Europe can be democratized and her governments republican, the results will be worth the price.

 In her struggle to attain the great and lasting benefits of democracy, it is inevitable that China should share the experience of all suffer some of it's ills at the beginning.
 Following the inauguration of the Chinese President, the Parliament unable to proceed with the election of Vice President because 1t lacked quorum, and, although votes quoted high as $500 each, members at dinner party fled at the ap- proach of the Speaker.

The Leaven of Liberty.
(New York World.)

To those who have observed Mexico as a field for the culture of German propaganda there will be a feeling of satisfaction and ray of hope in the nouncement that recalcitrant neighbor has exceeded her Liberty Loan quota of $10O0 900 by $ 249,5OO This sum did not come entirely from Amer fcias of the Government, employees and poorly clad natives
 Despite the recent history of Mexico, her sub scrpon to the Liberty Loan is evidenced that there is element of her population committed to the fundamental principles of democratic government. This is shown by the gradual restoration of law and order growing respect property rights and ad herence to the principles which the United States is now fighting to uphold the nations of the world.
 Although Mexico is behind some of the Central and South American republics in her subscriptions to the Liberty Loan she has given evidence great pro- since days of Huerta when the Chief Execu tive's office less permanently located in wine-shop at the headquarters of German prop agandist.

TOWN MAY HAVE CHANCE ID NAME
 ADVISORY BOARD
Election of Restricted Council May Be Submitted to Nenanaites
 At Early Date.

A matter of much importance to the town of Nenana will be taken up for consideration by the Nenana Commercial club, at the meeting to be held tomorrow afternoon. Some time ago the question of electing a town council to act in conjunction with the townsite managemnt was submitted to the club and the pro- position met with such general ap- proval among the members that a committee was named to confer with Frederick D. Browne, engineer in charge of the Alaskan Engineering commission in this division, and the committee later took the matter up with Chairman w. c. Edes and Man ager Christensen, with the result that the proposition has received the approval of all who were ap- preached and the committee instruct ed to present a definite plan of action at the meeting of the club tomorrow.
 The council, if one is chosen by the people of Nenana will not have the power to pass ordinances or levy taxes, but it will exercise a certain influence over townsite mat ters, being in reality an advisory board, elected by the people and backed by the Engineering commis. sion.
 , The question will be considered
 thoroughly by the club tomorrow
 and it is possible that a decision will be reached at that time to sub
 init the proposition to the property
 owners of the town for definite
 action, in which event an electior
 will be held at a very early date.
