Profiteering on Irish Potatoes.

That hundreds Of grocers in East
ern North Carolina are profiteering
by selling Irish potatoes at unusually
high prices is the opinion OF the Cra-
ven county food administrator, who
gave out statement Thursday to the
effect that he intended to make it hot
for those in Craven county who had
violated the trust placed in them and
who were singing the consumer by
charging unusually high prices for
the "spuds"
A dispatch from New Bern states

from growers at So to So barrel and

JUDGE BUNNELL SLATED
 ID HOLD COURT AT VALDEZ

It was authoritatiyely stated yes terday that Judge c. E. BunneT would preside at the term of court to be held in the Third division during August and September, on account of the absence of Judge Fred M. Brown, who has been granted a vacation of three months duration, commencing with the earlier month.
 On the departure of the court party for the lower river Judge Bunnell will so arrange his itinerary as to be back in Fairbanks or Nenana about August 10 and make the trip to the coast either by way of Broad pass or Chit ina. The court schedule for the Third division calls for a session at An chOrage to open August 20 and an- other at Seward for September g.
 Should circumstances warrant, the trip will in all prbaobility be made by the Broad pass route, as Judge Bunnell will then be enabled to see the district through which the rail road will pass and at the same time provide him with a vocational trip Fairbanks Citizen.

FORMER CORDOvAN HAS
 MADE USEFUL DISCOVERY

ANCHORAGE, June 8.-Syrup made from the sap of birch trees is a food stuff rivaling in substance and flavor the syrup derived from maple trees, in the opinion of D. M. Lynch, owner of a marl deposit north of Anchor age, who has tapped some of the numerous birch trees in his neigh borhood and turned their sap into syrup. He submitted a sample of his product to William Gerig, engineer in charge of the Anchorage division of the government railroad, who praises the taste and quality of the syrup.
 There is a comparatively heavy stand of birch timber in the Anchorage country.

REGULATIONS ISSUED
 FOR SALT WATER FISHING

A copy of the printed rules and reg. ulatiOns governing salt water fisher men is being mailed to every licensee in Alaska. The rules are being sent to the various federal food admins trators of Alaska, and will be given to the fishermen by them. These food administrators are also distributing the licenses to the fisherme npon the surrendering of the copy of the appli- cation blank
 The regulations were formulated with the primary object of increasing the output of fish caught in American waters. The general regulations ap- ply to the Atlantic and Pacific coasts, the Gulf of Mexico district and the waters of Hawaii and Porto Rico. Spe- cial fishing regulations have been for mulated to govern along the Atlantic coast. Other special regulations will later be promulgated for inshore At ldnIIC COdSI waters anu TOT the Ia cifc coast.
 Under the new regulations all salt water fish which can be marketed otherwise than at actual loss to the fishermen must be made available for human consumption. While licensed fishermen will be required to comply with all state laws which do not con- fict with the federal regulations, most of the broad local restrictions will be- lifted.
 The general regulations provide for the inspection and control of vessels, gear and equipment by government agents.
 The food administration believes that the broad fishing operations made possible through these regulations will stimulate salt water fishing and tend to bring the catch back to normal, and largely compensate for the in creased operating costs and for sub stantial losses in men, gear and yes sels that have resulted from war con- ditions.

Anchorage toWnsite are cultivated by seventeen employees of the Alaskan en- gineering commission. The tracts, each of which measures nineteen and half by seventy feet, were allotted free of rental for the season by the land and industrial department of the commission. They are planted to the usual varieties of vegetables.
 The tracts were cultivated in 1917 by commission employees and yielded them sufficient lettuce, radishes, spin ach, cabbage, cauliflower, turnips and potatoes for table needs.
 Six of this seasons gardeners have the same tracts they had last year.

That Constitutional Bar.

Previous to the election the
question of the eligibility of Fred
I. Golfer to take his seat as gov
e"nor in the event of his winning
the seat was occupying consider
able space in the newspapers of
the state, learned legal briefs
being submitted on both sides by
the editors. Now the question
can never be officially settled in
court because the people elected
Tom Campbell to avoid any dis
pute about it. AS every MEM
Der of the legislature nurses the
sweet JUNCTION to his soul that
he will some day blossom as
candidate for governor, it might
be well to amend that section of
the constitution that has pro-
voked such heated arguments.

Peace Believed Near.

The terms of the armistice pre-
pared by the Supreme War Coun-
Gil have been submitted to the
Germans, and according to it's
terms they will be given forty
eight hours in which to return
their reply. The terms will not
be made public until the German
council has been given an oppor-
tunity to consider them. The
armlstice will be given to German
staff officers through Marshal
Foch, and German staff officers
have been sent into the allies lines
to get the document.
When Germany concluded peace
terms with France in 1871. at
the close of the ranco-Prussian
war, after demanding all the
money they could get, and grab,
bing Alsace-Loraine, they furth-
er humiliated the French by de-
manding peaceful possession of
Paris for two days so they could
parade the German army through
the streets. The French proba-
bly, have not forgotten this Incl
dent, and at this time when peace
terms are agreed upon there
should be one clause permitting
the victorious Allied armies to
have possession of Berlin for
two days so they could parade the
streets as further humiliation
of the Prussians. 1t is almost to
be regretted that t h e Allied
armies are civilized, making it
impossible for them to visit upon
the Germans some Of the atroci-
ties they so viciousiy and lust
fully visited on the poor Belgiums.
An eye for an eye, and a tooth
for a TOOTH" ought to be the
principle applied in dealing with
the German autocracy. Out Of
regard for one of our readers. a
lady full of Christian charity and
forbearance, we will not suggest
that the Kaiser and some of his
brutal military advisers w h o
countenanced the brutal crimes
committed by the German armies
ought to be hung, but we will
always think so in our own mind.
The day of savagery in warfare
has long since past, and a coun-
try that returns to the practice
is outside the pale of the law of
nations.

United War Work Campaign.

The campaign to raise funds
for the United War Activities
opens next Monday, and Winslow
must not fall behind or lag in its
subscriptions. 1t is the cheerful
an d prompt giVer that puts zest
into the workers, and adds the
element of enthusiasm that will
put Winslow over the top.
The cheering news that comes
from over there of the victories
that are daily being won by the
Allies, and the prospects Of an
armistice must not be considered
as an excuse not to contribute to
this great and noble cause. If
peace were actually declared this
fund will be more sorely needed
than if war was in progress.
With the excitement of battle
the boys over there have their
minds fully occupied with the Sc
rious duties they have to per-
form, and even when given a re-
spite of few days they are
weary and glad of an opportuni-
ty to lay around in camp to re-
cuperate their strength, and there
is not the danger of their stray
ing away from the clean moral
lives they are perforce compelled
to lead under war conditions.
But with the declaration of peace
these boys of ours will soon find
the humdrum existence of camp
life irksome, and they will be
growing restless in spirit, and
then it will be necessary for these
great religious associations, which
have been doing such a glorious
work, to put forth greater ef-
forts to throw around them the
comforts and attractions of home
life during the period from the
cessations of hostilities until they
are embarked for home. This
will be the trying hour for this
great band of Christian workers,
and their efforts must not be
handicapped for lack of funds,
as their activities will needs be
intensified to meet the full meas
ure of their opportunities to hold
the young men, and keep their
minds occupied along, pure and
useful pursuits and pleasures.
We want our boys back. We
them to come home to us big up
standing men, with sparkling
eyes, clear consciences, and clean
bodies, and the flush of victory.
Let Us give our money freely to
the United War Workers, that
all the safeguards can be thrown
around the boys until they return
to their home influences.
