WANT RUSSIAN
CUSTOMS HOUSE
Trade Between Alaska and Siberia
Has Almost Sentirely Ceased With
the Gentry of That Great Nation
Into the World War-SecOnd Alas
ka Across the Strata.
(By Associated Press)

Seattle, Jan. 21.-Overthrow of rec
ognized government in Russia has
halted efforts to stimulate trade be-
tween the natives and settlers of tie
northeastern stretches of Siberia
fringing the Bering Sea and the Arc
tic ocean and the merchants of Nome,
Alaska and Seattle.
There 10 . second pioneer Alaska
lying across the Behring in Sibernia,
asserts j. L. M. Pherson, secretary of
the Alaska Bureau of the Seattle
Chamber of Commerce. who has taken
a leading part in the commercial
movement.
"While little authentic information
is available regarding the provinces
of Kamchatka and Yakutsk, which
are in the northeastern portion of ST.
IBERIA, we do know that there are
mines and furs and fish across there
and that the best place for the ST.
berian miners and trappers and fish
ermen to trade is at Nome," he con-
tinued. "The Russian ports are all
too far away"
Specific aims of the campaign were
to induce the Russian government to
establish a custom house at East
Cape, a Siberian point on Bering
Straits, $50 miles from Nome, or to
throw open the Siberian coast from
Cape Navarin to the Kolyma river to
free and unrestricted trade, except
ing liquors.
At present the most northerly ST.
berian custom house is 1900 miles
southwest Of Mona, at Petropavloesk,
the capital Of Kachatka province, sit
uated near the southern end of Kam-
chatka peninsula.
Only q few small trading boats ply
between the edg Of Asia and far west
ern America, as the distance to the
custom house from the American
ports is too great to permit the ves-
sells to engage in the business profit
ably, as their fuel capacity is neces-
sarily very small. AS the trade is
not overly large and as the ice pre-
vents the boats operating in winter,
the trade does not warrant the use
of larger vessels.

the decision Of Judge Cole temporar-

1t is the belief of attorneys here
that the liquor interests hope, by ty-
ing up the injunction issue in the Ap-
pellate court, no election can be
called on the wet and dry question
in Imperial until decision is rem
dered by the higher court.
In the meantime, petitions are in
circulation in Imperial asking the city
trustees to call another election on
the liquor issue. There is question
whether this movement will result in
an election, as both sides are look

The general practice of crop rota-

It may be possible to distinguish

Sits Up and Takes Notice When

(By Associated .Press)

Washington, Jan. 21.-Characteriz-
ing former President Roosevelt as
"the most potent American agent
of the KAISER" and the "most sedi-
tious man of consequence in Ameri-
ca, Senator Stone, addressing the Sem
ate today, charged that Republican
leaders are engaged in studied eff
fort to make politics out Of the war.
Their object is to "take the govern
ment over into their own hands" by
partisan criticism Of the conduct of
the war, he declared.
Senator Stones address, carefully
prepared, the first Of political signif
icance made in Congress since the
United States entered the war, and
regarded as the forerunner of bitter
patisan strife, excoriated partisanship
in the war. Besides Colonel Roose-
welt, the Missouri senator named
Chairman Wilcox of the Republican
national committee and Senator Pen
rose among Republican leaders as his
Witnesses" to the political plot he
alleged. Investigations by Congress
of war operations, Senator Stone also
declared, have almost entirely been
launched by Republicans and adroit-
ly exploited for partisan purposes.
Citing statements of the Republican
leaders regarding the political plans
and editorials of Colonel Roosevelt,
which, he said, are "villainous
screeds," published for money, Senator
Stone declared:
Roosevelt a Menace.
"On my responsibility as a senator
l charge that since our entrance into
the war, Roosevelt, by his attacks on
the government, has been a menace
and obstruction to the successful
prosecution of the war.
"The only possible effect of these
wiedly-published utterances of this
man. said Senator Stone, "has been,
as they were designed to be, to dis
credit and bring the present govern
ment into public disfavor and weaken
its hold on public confidence. That
seems to be the Rooseveltian stand
ard of patriotism"
Similar utterances made by less
powerful citizens, Senator Stone as
serted, woulud subject them to prose-
cution for disloyalty.
"Of ali men," the Missouri senator
continued, Roosevelt il mots re-
sponsible for what he denounces. He
does his work cunningly. In the
front of his propaganda he throws a
deceptive political camouflage. l.
charge that Theodore Roosevelt is
wether willingly, or out of sheer mad
ness, l don't know, is the
most potent agent of the
Kaiser in America. I will not
particularize about his former very
close intimacy with the Kaiser him
self, and with the Kaiser's American
ambassador, Count Bernstorff. l can
not escape the belief that this excep-
tional colonel, who has played SO
many games of questionable politics,

particular brand for a very great
