charge of trying to bribe other Aryans
OF the east to help GUST the present
government of India ostensibly in be-

his majesty the kaiser. Newab charg-

lens confronting the government. The
only thing that it can do is to start
out with a few primary industries and
gradually adjust things as rapidly as
possible, trusting to the patriotism
and common sense of the American
people to cooperate in making such
regulations a success.
From the magnitude of the task of
universal regulation, The TIMES
draws a lesson different from that
hastily deduced by the agitator or the
devotee of the Sunday Bulldog" edi-
tons 1t believes that conditions
prove the correctness of the princi-
pies of political economy that the mas
ters of that science have always
taught; namely, that beyond those ac-
tivties which are naturally monopol-
istic. the least interference possible
outside of the prevention of dishon-
est dealing is best. Likely we shall
have the railroads on our hands with
telephones and telegraphs as adj
juncts because of the confessed fail
ure of regulation and the impossible
ity of competition. We shall have the
warehouses for storing grain which
the state council of defense and the
bipartisan league are united in APP
proving. We shall see to it that pow
er not yet taken is handled and sold
by the state rather than by private
monopoly, and we shall extend the
principle of tax exemption of farm i'm
provements, which taken alone is un-
fair and lop-sided, so as to adjust
taxation to encourage industry and de-
velopment rather than retard them.
Then we shall cut out trade bar
riers in making our peace with the
world after we have licked not only
the kaiser and pan ermanism, but the
principle of economic discrimination
on which pan-Germanism could alone
be built, and we shall let industries
not naturally monopolistic develop
along natural lines. Every conscious
regulation involves the devotion Of
time and thought by the regulator
which he might otherwise employ pro-
ductively. 1t is lost motion.
Just now it is necessary, because
the war has shut off trade and COM
petition and made artificial monopo-
lies out of things that are naturally
competitive. But the problem of
price fixing has attained a magnitude
and developed humorous features that
will appeal to the common sense and
sense of ridicule of the American peo-
pie in such ways as to induce them
to get back to fundamentals when the
war is over

BATTING THE LABORERS

Senator McCumber of North Dakota
calls himself a Republican, but for all
his wholesale denunciation of the
leaders of union labor as Bolsheyild,
he breaches as radical brand of So
cialism as that proclaimed by the So
cialist Labor party, or the old style
Marxians of the "impossibilist" kind.
He wants all labor Communicated at
once. Now, one thing is certain, if
all labor is commandeered all indus
with the labor. For Communicated la
Dor can only be employed on govern
ment work. For reasons suggested in
another editorial herein, we believe
fail. 1t is going to the extreme of
characterization at a bound Some
time ago McCumber set up the most
woeful howl about the sad fate await
ing this country in the war. Now he
wants to do something that will break
down the government by its own
weight; which is what happened in
Russia He. is the real Bolsheviki.
What his game is or what influences
are behind him we are unable to
imagine; certainly his purpose and
his backing must be alike sisister.
Union labor has many men in it's
ranks of millions that are not high
class citizens. So has the Republican
party, the Democratic party, the Non
partisan league. the Socialist party,
the Socialist Labor party and the
few leaders,. have taken an equivocal
position, in regard to the war. But the
great leaders have been almost uni
formally patriotic. To denounce the
vast majority on account of the few
is unfair. and probably dishonest.
The leaders have stood firm against
the I. W. w which is the really sin
lister organization among labor. Who
ever opposes legitimate union labor,
is the friend of the I. w. w. in fact if
not in intent Whoever opposes legiti-
mate union labor at this time con-
sciously or unconsciously plays into
the hands of the profiteers on whom
McCumber wasted so much elo-
quence.
We're all workmen organized in af-
filiation with the American Federation
of Labor there would be far more
stability in all industry and the labor
problem confronting the farmers of
this country today could be much
more equitably solved than at present.

 "I have several reasons for think ing so," he said First, we have the greatest pitching staff the Cubs have ever had and we have a catch CT that compares favorably with Johnny King when at his best There isn't a better catcher in the game today than Killifer.

Former Juneau Newspaper man Has Much Praise for English for
 Stopping Drive.
YANKEES WANT IN IT
Americans Chaffing to Get in Big Eightjng;s Confi- dent They Would
 Show Good.

Writing from the front in France, Lieut.. Earle c. Jameson, formerly of the editorial staff of The En- pire, speaks in superlative terms of the accomplishment of the British in stopping the German drive, and says the slaughter of the Germans was terrific. He says the Americans are very anxious to get into the fighting.
 Lieut. Jamesons letter was dated March 31, and among other things he writes:
 The. British have done in the past ten days what they themselves con sidered impossible. The slaughter well, they have just literally moved the Huns down in, heaps. It has been the bloodiest battle of the war, but the Hun has been checked, and I firmly believe that he is making his last effort, for he cannot break through.
 We are all chafing to get into the fray on the Anglo-French front since our great commander has of fered our services to them We hope they will ask for our assistance soon. We have Very formidable fighting force available. and I know that we would make our presence felt in the attacks. The Americans are confi- dent, and they have that feeling that they would show them all some thing that they have not yet seen." Lieut. Jameson has been detailed for duty as an instructor in trench specialties in a large army school, and for six weeks or more he will be there conducting special courses, unless" he adds, something turns up. We are all pulling like the mis- chief for the order that will send us up with those brave British and French troops"

CHICAGO NATIONALS

A team fifty per cent. stronger than the club of year ago is Man ager Fred Mitchell's boast of the Chicago Nationals this season The new strength of the club appears to be in the acquisition of Grover Cleve- land Alexander, the pitching star. and his battery mate, Catcher Killi- fer. who were purchase dfrom the Philadelphia club for $5O,OOO; and George Tyler, southpaw. obtained from Boston in a trade involving Larry Doyle.
 Experts rate Mitchell's pitching staff as one of the strongest in the league In addition to Alexander, the Chicago pilot has Vaughn, Doug las, Tyler, Carter and Hendrix as box performers The recruit pitch CTS are Harry Weaver and James Walkers, leaders respectively in the Eastern and Southern leagues. Mitch ell is enthusiastic about both.

CORPSE FOUND ON TRAIL

That the corpse found near the mouth of Wood river, on the Fair banks Nenana trail, is that of either victim of murder of a suicide is the information received by the marshals office at Fairbanks from Nenana It has also been ascertained that the body is that of Casper Good, a man 5S years of age, and a former employee of the Alaskan En gineering Commission at Happy Sta tion and at Nenana. The reason given for the murder or suicide theory is the fact that the throat oi the corpse was cut from ear to ear The first information that a body had been found on the trail was ta ken to Nenana by an Indian. An official investigation of the report followed with the result that the slashes were discovered, when it had previously been supposed that the man had frozen to death.-(Cordova Times.)
