Owner OF Six Alaskan CaninRs Fines.
for Maintaining Nuisance.
SANTA MONICA. Nov. Silk shag-
gy, gray dogs sat painting in the shade
of the city hall patton this morning
while .tlIeir master, Captain John
Smith, formerly OF Alaska, was being
tried by Judge King on the charge OF
maintaining a nuisance.
Many yomen who live in the vicin-
ity of Marine street were the Witness
es in the case. They declared the big
Eskimo dogs were vicious and dan
ger0us to have on the street.
Captain Smith did OF have much
to say. But he explained that the
dogs came from the frozen north. and
that the heat of the southland had
perhaps made them trifle cross at
times. He told how the Malamutes
delighted in snow and cold, and how
they had frolioked at Big Bear last
winter.
This is no city to keep a pack Of
Alaska dogs in" said the judge.
There is ample testimony to show
the dogs are dangerous" Captain
Smith was fined S25 and told to dis
pose of the animals.

may take weeks to fully settle
all the intricate questions in
volved.
But even after all that is ac-
complished there may be work
of the utmost gravity ahead for
all nations concerned. The
enemy country is in a state of
turmoil. No one knows as yet
what may have to be done
there: The armies of America
and the allies may have to po-
lice central Europe for many
months. Russia too will doubt
less need help. So even though
fighting be over our boys may
yet have much work to do.
That the big thing is ended,
however, there can be no rea-
sonable doubt. The German
delegation plainly went under
a white flag with instructions
for surrender. There can be
no other outcome for them.
