who had stayed at home by the sup

Mrs. Syring desires to thank the people of Valdez for thelr liberal con- tributions of clothing for the needy Natives. In November she sent six sacks to the Natives at Copper Center and today is sending eight more. In the three years in which she has been engaged in that work she has ship ped clothing to many parts of the country. Valdez is one of the very few, possibly the only. town in Alas ka which gathers clothing and ships 1t to the native villages whenever a call is sent by them. It is greatly hoped that the other towns will fall in line and some one volunteer their services in the matter. Much good cast off clothing Is burned every year which, if there was only some one to take charge of its disposal would accomplish infinite good; Mrs. syring also desires to state thst any further contributions from Valdez residents will be gladly received and if any of the surroundths towns viii donate she wilI be. eiad to take charge of the disposal. Any clothing in Val des for the natives will be called for if she is notified.

Germany is Willing

LONDON, Feb. 25.-Germany in formed Russia today that she is will ing to accept peace under the terms formerly proposed at the Brest-Lito- vsk conference, and that she will again open negotiations to that end. Both sides, however, must declare the war ended, and the Russians must give up all territory west of the line inducted at Brest-Litovsk, and in the region of the Dvinsk. This line must be advanced to the eastern frontier of Courland; Russia must renounce every claim and interference in the internal affairs of these regions. Li- vonfa, Esthonia must be immediate ly cleared of Russian troops; the Ger mans immediately occupying and po- licing all surrendered territory. An immediate demobilization of the en- tire Russian army is demanded.
 This gives Germany absolute con- trol of all open ports in the empire, on the western coast, as we'll as the warm water port of the Black sea, whence most of her products are ex- ported during the winter months. It also throws into Germany's hands the immense wheat raising district in Southwestern Ukraine, which pro- duces Russias immense wheat ship ments.
