Australia has given notice that it
will retain the Pacific islands which it
wrested from Germany, and, of course,
England will maintain her decision.
She is certainly entitled to all the
islands she has taken, including the
Bismarck archipelago, the most strate-
gical point in the whole Pacific ocean.
Then, again, as we view the conquests
by various nations, we are Of the
opinion that the Japanese are. entitled
to the territory in China which they
captured from the German colonists.
Not single possession which has been
captured from the Huns should be re-

F. B. Kellogg severely criticised in

B National Republican: Secretary
Daniels worked off some o1d-fashioned
partisan harangues before the election
in which he referred to the republican
party as a "plunderbund" and quoted
appeals made in behalf Of McKinley's
election during the Spanish-American
war in 1898. He forgot to quote the
editorials in his Raleigh newspaper in
which these appeals were repudiated
and an opposition congress demanded.

The Pomerene resolution calling
for an investigation by the senate of

Newberry in his campaign against
Hank Ford has been killed by the

The Germans are not fools and I believe they al ready fear us.
 "One of the big factors in mak- ing our army great is that of dis cipline. The men commanding our army are said to be merciless in matters affecting discipline, in ques tions of putting the right officer in the right place, of eliminating favoritism and unfit men, and this is as it should be. By merciless discipline, however, I do not mean Ill treatment of soldiers or anybody.
 "This army of ours that we are building up will lead to the final defeat of the Germans for some what the same reasons, perhaps, that Napoleon was defeated in Europe after fifteen years of victory, or that the Confederate army was de- feated in our Civil War. Time is working in favor of the Allies The Germans have not succeeded in obtaining any overwhelming de- clslon in this war,and the day will come when the Allies, backed up by the great American man power, will themselves demand and obtain thedecision that we call victory.

GIVE NENANA A CHANGE

It would appear, from lnforma- tion which has reached the office of The Nenana Daily News that Nenana and Nenanaites are being discriminated against by the postal authorities. We refer to the in- structions recently forwarded to Fairbanks, directing that proposals for carrying mail between Fair banks and Nenana during the com ing winter be received at the Fair banks postoffice and forwarded to the chief clerk at Panama. The fact that Nenana might number among her citizens men who would well come an opportunity to bid for the privilege of carrying the mail be- tween the two town seemingly did not enter into the consideration. At any rate, the Nenana office has re- ceived no similar instructions and it is not possible, even to obtain copy here of the notice calling for bids.
 Nenana, in the opinion of the News, is entitled to first considera- tion in this matter. Practically all the men who are in a position to handle such contract, are located here and their proposals should be invited if for no other reason than to insure reasonable charge for the service rendered.
 In this connection it may not be amiss to remind the postal authori- ties that of the two towns con- cerned, Nenana has the greater natural interest in the contract and will be the greater sufferer through an unsatisfactory service. Nena- naites therefore can be depended upon to cooperate with and assist the department in making a favora- ble bargain, if given the oppor- tunity to do so.
 The contract, for which the postal authorities are seeking proposals, requires a weekly service at least between the two towns between October 20 and May 15. The con- tractor will be expected to carry all mail offered and the proposals should stipulate the rate per pound desired for carrying the mail. Whether or not the contract is to be awarded on weight basis is not known in Nenana. An effort is be- ing made, however, to secure a CODY of the notice posted at Fairbanks, and when it is received, prospective local bidders will be made aware of the fact, in order that they may send in their bids before the time limit has expired. The proposals are supposed to be forwarded to Panama before the end of the pres- ent month.
