Effect of War on Trade.

It would be impossible to give in de- tail the effect of the European war on American trade, but partial statements show the approximate effect on some branches of trade. Thus it appears that during the first 20 months of war our exports of articles used expressly for war purposes amounted to $1,092.- 582, ,249. The smallest shipments were in the opening month of the war, Aug ust, 1914, when such exports amount ed to only $8,551 ,011 and increased al- most steadily up to March, 1916, when the total was ,$114,326, ,426. For the 20 months the exports of explosives amounted to $168. 159,515; gunpowder. $104,605,7S5; cartridges, $4O.3OS,61 i; dynamite. $3.211,073; commercial au- tomobileS, $S2. .667. .125; mules, $30, 0,026,- 591; horses, $125,241, ,206; airplanes, s7. .7O7; firearms, $2O,14O,9s1; mis- cellaheous iron and steel, including empty shells, $111, ,8O3.3l6; rubber. in cluding auto tires, 3s,85S,76S; barbed and plain wire. s14 ,4S5, ,3S5. According to statistics of the United States de partment of commerce, more than three-quarters of the total export trade of the United States in 1916 went to the allied nations of Europe. and this including only war exports, and not provisions or fOOdstuffs.

IAN AWFUL PEST

Armed with a number of copies of her speech at Juneau of which she seemed intensely proud, Mrs. Cornell jas E. Hatcher, the alleged territorial representative of the w. c. T. U., on her way to the westward, arrived from the south yesterday. The Juneau Dispatch with undying love for the lady who speaks for democracy, had printed the speech probably free of charge for the Maloney exponent, in the Maloney organ, "The Boob. Her reception at Valdez was frost in every sense of the word. the citi- zens not approving the abuse and viii hcation heaped upon T. J. Donohoe. a resident of this city, whom Mrs. Hatcher especially singled out for vicious attacks and slangy innuendo. A representative of the Prospector asked a number of passengers on the Northwestern how she made out in her campaign coming up from Jul neau. and they replied: "She is an awful pest. Sulzer ought to place her on the payroll. She is making him votes by the hundred"

OLD METHOD OF TRANSPORT
Raft as Used m America Today Has Its Counterpart in Every coun-
 try in the World.

"The raft has been used for centu
 ries for carrying various cargoes."
 writes Day Allen Wiley in St. Nicho- { las. Tt carried Egyptian cotton on [ The Nile: it i, in service on the kongo i river in Africa and the Ganges in In | dia; but the raft which is its own ! cargo is that composed of logs-a
 method of water transportation that ' originated in Nova Scotia half cen | tury ago.
 Free trunks cut from Nova Scotia ! forests were moved on wooden rollers ' to one of the harbors. where the logs were piled in layers and bound to- | gether with twisted wire rope. The | raft was to he taken to a lumber mil! ! on New York harbor. where the logs ! were to be cut into timber for building purposes. Tu haul the raft while on ! the sea. one end of d heavy wire rope
 was fastened to It's bow. the other was | secured to the rear deck of steam
 tugbOat. It started on its ocean jour ney, but never reached it's destination, ! for a gale of wind sprang up, the tow | ing rope parted. and the raft drifted
 out to sea. Later, some of the logs were found washed ashore on the Nor
 wegian coast.
 Tn the Northwest the transportation of lumber In rafts Is very extensive. They are of enormous dimensions, in shape closely resembling a cigar, hav- | ing it's greatest number at the middle
 and tapering to a point at both ends. While these rafts are of varying sizes, , the smallest usually contains at least i've thousand pieces of timber. ranging from 90 to 110 feet in length and from
 two to nearly five feet in diameter at | the butt.
 Consequently, some of the rafts made in this peculiar fashion are near | ly as long as the largest transatlantic
 liners, measuring no less than $50 feet | from end to end"

Wilson to Fight to Finish to

Washington, ID. c., Jan. 22.-Presi-
dent Wilson has served notice on demo-
cratic leaders in the Senate that he will
use all his influence and power to beat
the bill to create a war council. e
THE president will fight to the fin

of Americas part in the conflict out of
his hands and likened it 20 the attempts
to curtail n authority of President
Lincoln.
While the democrats who stand for
the bill were firm. there were no sur
face indications as yet as to how far
the rank and file might be ready to vote
against the presidents wishes, espe-
cially when he put the case so strongly.
1t was generally accepted that the re-
publicans were for the bill.
Senator Swanson, acting chairman Of
the naval committee, objected to the
bill, being referred to the military COM
mittee alone and it went over until
tomorrow without reference.
Establishment of a war cabinet Of
three distinguished citizens of demon
