THE RELEASE OF ST. MIHIEL.

Affecting stories of how the civilian inhabitants of St. Mihiel and other towns which had been in the German grip for four years greeted Gen. Per shing and Secretary Baker cannot fail to strike a responsive chord in every American heart.
 Here people, principally women and chll- dren for the old men had been driven away to enforced labor elsewhere, who had ben in virtual slavery the ruthless savagery Everything value they possessed even to their clothing and furniture, had been taken away and carted into Ger many. Their banks and stores had been footed, their public buildings deaced and the people forced from their poverty to pay tribute to their brutish conquerors Unspeakable outrages had been visited upon the and girls not occasionally but as part of the customary German regime. Suddenly rescued by the advance of the Amercans they had to be told the whole story of the for they had had news except from German sources since they were placed in captivity
 It Is well that the American soldiers should see and hear of these things before starting their invasion of Germany. They will know better how to deal with an enemy who practices such methods in his treatment of defenstiess popula- ton.

America's New Army.
Seattle Times.)

Seattle Times.)
 By next July, the United States will have in France that army of 4,000, 900 which, in the opinion of Allied military experts, is destined to give FOch such prepOnderance of numbers that he will be able to smash through the German line at many points he may select
 General March, chief of staff, has informed the House appropriations committee that there are 3,200,000 men under arms. The War Depart rtment s plan is to summon 2,700, 900 of the draft regis trants to the coors between and July
 Some of the making up this stupendous total of $500 900 will be used replacement troops but after making all deductions for casualties and rejections the department expects to have army of 4,SOO,000 available for duty next summer.
 Assuming that the War Department has not changed it's plans for aintaning in the United force of between 700,000 and 800,0 for re- placement purposes, it's announced arrangements template the mobilizatio noverseas next year of army of approximately 4,000,00O
 The summer of 1919 will see the Allies with a nu- merical advantage in the West three four times as great as that possessed by Germany at the com mencement of operations this year. That superiority in force will give Foch the opportunity he other Allied commanders covet, of dealing crushing blow to the field forces of autocracy.

Cardinal Farley.
est. Louis Republic.)

Cardinal John M. Farley of New York gave the aged prelate pleasure than the part he was able to take in breaking up the Sim Fein move ment in that city. This movement, which is now known to have been a part of German propaganda
 few genuinely patriotic Americans of Irish extraction were carried away by it, but the more far-sighted, like Cardinal Farley, through the sham and quietly put stop to it's growth especial ly among the Catholic clergy, who expected to be the backbone of the movement. little later the movement actually in the pay of Ger many, but by that time it had been hattened out that there little danger of it.
 The hope of starting widespread movement ill this country to embarrass the Government and hep Germany by the employment of Irish sentiment failed dismally the earlier attempts to organize the Germans in America for the purpose To the tate Cardinal Farley belongs much of the credit for stopping this movement before it fairly started

Back to Alaska.
(Douglas Island News.) ]

From every source we hear that Alaska is to be the after the war; for soldiers and former idents who now living in the States. The sol ders say that they will never again be content to live in the confines of the big cities the cramped of the States. They all that since joning the army they have a longing for the orel, places and the free, air of the great outdoors
 Alaska is the last great frontier and the land of opportunities, and the place that will appeal the soldiers when they get through with their job of clean ing up Europe Alaska has open places and the free pure air, and what country it will be when it is peopled with the thousands of the resourceful men who have fought the battlefelds of Europe for their country There is room enough for everyone nd opportunities for all, and both Alaska and the soldiers will be the winners by their migration.
 Former residents of the Territory in the States say that they perhaps stay there while the is op and help Uncle Sam out in the ship yards, but after the war-Alaska for theirs.

WICK" DOES NOT TRUST ALASKANS.

Ex-Delegate Wickersham says he was afraid that the people of Alaska had the power to amend their election laws they would commit public "sucide' '- that is the word he used before two Committees of Congress on separate occasionsthat they would abo- ish the office of Delegate Congress and the Terri torial Legislature What do you think of that, voters of Alaska?
 The people of New York and Virginia and the sre- mainder of the original thirteen American States can amend their election laws. Ohio and Texas and Cal ifornia and the other States which have been ad- mtted to the Union change their election laws at pleasure The people of Hawaii and Porto Rico and the Philippines can alter their election laws The people of every Territory that has been established between 17S7 and the presentsave only Alaska, ac- cording to Wickersham-had control their cleo tion laws
 But Wickersham thought the people of Alaska not worthy of having much power. They might com init public suicide! They might abolish the office of Delegate to Congress and the Territorial Legis- lature Of all the American peoples since the Rev olutionary War you voters of Alaska, were picked out being incapable of being trusted with your public life, You, alone, needed guardian
