country entered the war. At that time. the Allies were hard pressed. That time has passed, however. Their peace feelers then were mere show of mpudnce. Now that they see the game is up; that they are as good as licked and licked badly they show real desire for peace which is the last thing in the world the allied nations want.
 Before our country entered the war; the Allies might have considered peace proposals made in good faith It is differen. now; for they have everything to gain by licking the Huns until they are down on their knees begging to accept unconditional surrender And then we don't know but what the Allies would give them another licking for good measure for all the damnable suffering and murders they have committed. However, had we our choice, noth- ing short of complete extermination would do. Those nations have been but pests in the past to the rest of the civilized world and if we allow any to live, they shall remain eye sores to the end of time. Let us do away with them all. Let us call this war of extermination of nations of murderers. Let us have no peace until the job is complete.

GOOD RADIANCE.

The other day man left the community that we feel certain the majority of the people of Fairbanks glad take his departure. We refer to the self citizen of Norway who repudiaed his decara ton for citizenship in this country in order to get out of military service. There may be eXtenuating circum stances but impossible that there could be any that would warrant such action.
 This person, after declaring his intention of becom- ing citizen of the United States is willing to for felt any and all claims he may have to that citizen ship rather than be drafted into service of the country whose benefits he has enjoyed for some time. He ceived his first papers, but considers this country only good enough live in, not good enough to fight for Ii is well that he felt moved and take this stand for if there any class of that would make undesirable citizens, he is of them. He has left the country, and glad of it. We only hope that his record goes with him and that wherever he take up his abode it be in this country his of patriotism and regard for duty will be known.
 It may be possible to ship him back to the country which he came and behind whose skirts he is hid ing if she will have him. Well and good. There is in this land of the free for anyone who is such slave consideration for his personal safety We good rddance and feel that the sentiment of the community is voiced by that term--Farfbanks Git

IT CAN DO NO GOOD.

Whether or not the drafted boys who forced the slackers to parade the streets the last two evenings meant the proceedings as remedy for those mems ill---that of being slackers; or whether as pastime they wished to exhibit the yellow streak in those men, we have been unable to learn. Again if the proceedings were intend ed to humate them in the public eyes, either way, the boys will find the remedy offers very little satisfaction. They being slackers is due to their defective hearts, an incurable malady. For the same reason, humiliation rolls off of them just as easy as water rolls off duck S back. They and their like are impervious to any little thing like that. Their hearts being affect ed they have no pride. Patriotism is non- essential. To disgrace their country; their par ents, is nothing to them. Manhood, the kind that real men pride in, is unknown to them. All the attributes found in real men; are lacking in them. From that we can readily see that the remedy applied by the boys can give no real and lasting satisfaction. What then can be done with their likes. The answer is plain Order them back to the country of their origin and without ceremony, see that they go. Only in this manner shall ever get rid of a class of men worthless to any country.
 It can do no good to parade them before disgusted patriots. It can do no good to intern them. It can do no good to even apply bodily punishment for that would constitute cruelty tC animals. They are towards and traitors by na- ture; therefore not worth to bother with. Send them back where they came from.

MORE WASTE OF TIME.

i dispatch told us last evening that Aus tria-Hungary had requested Holland to invite representatives from all belligerent nations to take part in peace negotiations and that already 8 delegation of Hungarian statesmen headed by the premier had arrived at Vienna in connection with the new peace movement.
 What waste of time! They have been told repeatedly under what conditions we would consider peace and unless they are ready to accept those conditions, any peace proposals from their part that do not fully comply with the allied nations dictate, are merely waste of time.
 There was a time when near fair peace pro- posals might have been accepted-or at least considered by the Allies; but that was before our

''How can my infatuation for another mans wife be cured? writes lovelorn subscriber to our information bureau" says the Valdez Miner. To which the editor answers: "there are several ways but the best one we know of is to induce her to get divorce and marry her." Which sounds reasonable; but the editor might have added that the cure might work both ways. What then?

 Deliberate Attempt to Cheat the
 Voters
 A great deal of criticism is being directed at the heads of those Wick ershamites who are trying jo capture aCth political parties by dep5;ying he voters from writing in the names # their choices for nominations Nlere they do not appear in printing )n the ballot. It is alleged that they lrc directly attempting to control he Territory through gang" meth ods. It is charged that they want Q steal both the Democratic anG Republican parties by virtually dis 'ranchising the straight Republicans. Lawyers Say Voters Have a Right
 To Have Their Ballots Counted
 Lawyers who have looked into the matter say there is no doubt but hat the canyassing board will be reauired to canvass the ballots where he voters have written in the names 1f the candidates they prefer and to certify them, and that, if Delegate Sulzer or former Mayor W. A. Gil more of Nome should get more votes for the Republican nomination than Judge Wickersham gets then MT Sul- ger or MT Gilmore would have a right 70 have his name printed on the of ficial ballot as the Republican can iidate. Some of the lawyers go so far as to contend that should MT Sulzer get both the Democratic and

 The fishing business of Alaska like the mineral resources, have on iy been partly explored, and is, there fore, in it's infancy. The great banks of Western Alaska are as yet unde yeloped and the fishing in South eastern Alaska, up to the present time, has been confined mainly to inland waters. Therefore, it is not reasonable to expect that Juneau or any other community in Alaska can control the fish market, for there is enough business in this line to warrant the building of several large cities along our coastal line, but the Juneau merchants should endeavoI to get that business in our immed fate vicinity, especially when the CD orators are anxious to leave their DuSiHeSS HeIe, anu VIC 9HOulu oHON by our efforts that we are in accord with them and will offer every in ducement to secure their valuable business.
 Unless we wake up to the situa tion immediately, it will be too late to get any results from this year, business, and in the meantime, the cannery business, as well as the fresh fish business, will be seeking other places more appreciatiye.

NOT DUE TO SEX ALONE
Ladysmith Women Have Learned the
Cause of Many Mysterious Pains
and Aches

Many women have come to know
that sex isn't the reason for all back
aches, dizzy headaches and urinary
disorders. Men have these troubles,
too, and often they come from kidney
weakness. To live simply, eat spar
ingly, take better care of ones self and
to use DOan's Kidney Pills, is bound
to help bad kidneys get better. There
is no other remedy so well-recOmmend-
ed by Ladysmith people. Read this
case:
Mrs. VIM. Oleson, 500 E. Third ST.,
Ladysmith, says: "Off and on for four
years l had trouble with my kidneys
There was dull aching across my
back when l bent over or lifted, I
could hardly bear them. 1 was
troubled with inflammation of the
bladder and the way my kidneys acted
annoyed me very much. / went to the
drug store and asked for the best kid
ney medicine and the druggist gave me
Doan's Kidney Pills. 1 had only ia
ken them short time before I was
feeling relieved and after using one
box my kidneys acted naturally and
the backache was all gone. Since then,
my kidneys have been in fine shape"
