Defense in the matter of attempting to secure the release of soldiers and sailors in order that they may return to their former positions, is now hold ing up several dozen messages while the matter of who is to pay for their transmission over lines other than the Washington-Alaska cable is being determined. Governor Riggs who is now at Washington, has been com municated with and asked to endeav. or to make some arrangements by which the messages may be forward ed but no reply had been received from the Governor up to this after noon
 There is no question but that re. leases can be obtained by the sol diers and sailors in case they them selves make acquisitions for their release, but it is a hardship if they or their friends must stand the tele- graphic tolls for information regard ing their release
 In the meantime and until the mat ter of who is to stand the cost of these cablegrams is settled, but little can be done toward securing the re- lease and return of our Alaska boys.

RELEASE OF
 ALASkANS IS
 DELAYED SOME
Territorial Council of De- fense Strikes a Snag Owing to Lack of
 the Money.

So far as procuring the release of Alaskans from the service and hay ing them returned to their former positions in the various industries of the Territory is concerned the Ter ritorial Council of Defense has now bumped into a snag, the trouble be- ing that time -honored tap root of all evil, money. It is this way:
 Telegraphing costs money and the Territorial Council of Defense is short on that commodity. So far as the Westinghouse Alaska Military Cable is concerned no money is required in the matter of communicating with the military authorities that can be reached over that line, but it is diff. ferent when it comes to sending a message to any of the various mill tary camps throughout the States. In such instances the message must be transmitted over other lines af ter reaching Seattle and these other lines do not extend what is termed 70. B." privileges to the Alaska Ter ritorial Council of Defense.
 The result of this condition of af- fairs is that E. J. White, who is acting for and with the Council of

w. B. Wilson, Secretary of Labor, authorizes the following statement:
 Such available reports as are now before me indicate that more clerks are in Washington than are needed. Persons in different sections of the country who are contemplating com ing to Washington for work, before leaving their homes, should get re- newed assurance from some author ized Government official in Wash ington that they are needed"
 The Secretary took occasion to say, also, that the Government ap- preciated the patriotic services of those who have come to Washington.

WHAT FOCH SAID TO
 THE GERMAN ENVOYS

NEW YORK, Dec. 18.-The New York Sun quotes a high British off cial as saying that when the Ger man envoys stalked into the room of Marshal Foch to discuss the ar mistice, the Marshal said: ITO what am I indebted for the honor of this vsit?" The Germans were somewhat abashed. One of them re- piled: "We came about the armi- stice which you offered" "Armi- stice," quiried Foch, what armi- stice? I have made no offer" The Germans were astounded. But we must have an armistice," they walled. Must said Foch, "then you came to talk armistice?" The Germans admitted ruefully that they had come for that purpose Foch's eyes sparkled as he said: of you come to beg an armistice that is another matter"

curing efficient public service. The
rule is that where there is no super
vision or control or accountability,
there is no efficiency. We have still
undecided each and all of the thirty
five cases argued or sumbitted in June,
and some twenty or more. Of the old
chronic cases that were argued or
submitted eight or ten months ago.
This, We have an important case in
volving several thousands OF dollars.
1t was argued and sumbitted last
September, and as directed by the
chief justice, the writer on September
oath, 1917, formulated and distributed
to the other justices for their con-
currence a tentative decision. But
thus far there has been no concur
renee or dissent; and still we have
all sworn to do our duty faithfully
and to administer justice without de-
NAL or delay. To observe his oath
and to do his duty, Judge, in health,
must be on time and faithfully at
