WE CAN TRUST THEM

There are momentous events transpiring among the nations of the world and the people of all the countries involved are watching them unfold with breathless interest. Peace is the thought in everyone's mind, as they follow the trend of events as they happen. The exchange of peace notes and the answers of each of the correspondents in the negotia- tions are the subject of thought and comment all over the countries concerned. Germany's s answer to the Presidents last, note has been received in Washington and is being consider ed by our leaders. Great is their responsibil- ity, but great also is their ability to shoulder it and do it justice
 The country at large wants peace, but it wants peace that does not jeopardize the ideals for which we have been fighting. It must be an honorable peace to satisfy the have the war continue minute longer than necessary, no one wishes to sacrifice more human life and happiness than ecessary. Therefore the problem confronting the states men at Washington is complex and weighty one. But the leaders of this great democracy are capable of discharging their responsibility. We are perfectly safe in leaving all the worry to them They are worthy of our trust. And the fact that the people of the United States do trust their leaders is evident They gave proof of that by over subscribing the fourth Liberty loan
 President Wilson and his cabinet, Secre- tary Lansing especially, are men of brains and experience They are imbued with the ideals and traditions that have made this the great est nation on earth They will act in this crisis according to those ideals and will fol- low in the paths blazed by such men as George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. Consult ing with them will be the best heads of the allied nations, giving them the views of these people across the water, who have born the burden of war for the last four years.
 Patience and forbearance are what is required of the American people at this try ing time, and faith in our leaders at Wash ington They will act as it seems best for the good of all countries and peoples to whom they feel responsible and upon their decision we must pin our faith and trust. They are worthy of it.

PARKS
 IS PROMOTED

The mail Tuesday evening brought a few lines from George Parks, for. merly connected with the local land office, but now an officer in the army, located at Sheridan, Alabama, and be- ing chief gas officer of that camp.
 Parks, at the time of his entering the service, was commissioned first lieutenant. The signature to the let ter was that of Capt. George A. Parks. His friends in Fairbanks are glad to hear of the promotion and are hoping to see him advanced to the rank of at least major before the war is over. In spite of his rank George still has a longing for the northland and as soon as the war is over he will re-enter the civil service in his former capacity.

UNCLE SAM'S NAH. SERVICE IN
 FRANCE.

Now that nearly every family has mem bers or friends in the service in France, every one is concerned with the mail service that takes letters to the boys in the fighting line. There is a mail service in France that is identical with that in this country, and it is managed and controlled entirely by military authorities. Nearly all of the soldiers and officers detailed to this work are men who were employed in the postal system in this country and are we'll trained in getting mail to its destination in record time.
 There are many reasons why mail go- ing to the soldiers is more or less delayed. One of the most common of these is that much of the mail is improperly addressed Other reasons are the rapid changing of addresses and the shifting around of different units, and the duplication of names of the men in the been given to the friends and families of sol diers, there are still quantities of letters that arrive in France improperly addressed. There are thousands of men being sent every week as replacement units from the various camps in this country, and their mail has to be for warded. These replacement units are taken from one organization and often scattered along the front among various organizations. Their mail is known as "floaters' maiP' and every effort is made to get it to them without unnecessary delay.
 But the duplication of the soldiers names is problem that is hard to solve, and special care has to be taken in the addressing of mail destined for these men. For instance, there are over 100000 men in the army by the name of Smith; over 1,500 William Smiths, over 1000 John Smiths, and over 200 John A. Smiths. There are over l5,00O men by the name of Miller and over 15,OOO of our

doughboys answer to the name of Wilson, There are 262 John J. O'Brians and 50 of them have wives by the name of Mary There are over 1000 men called John Brown, and over 200 answer to the name of John John son. ,.
 From these figures it is very easy to see how difficult it is to get mail through to these men without delay. If there is any possible way of designating the men who have these common names, so that they can be readily distinguished from their colleagues of the same name, it has to be used, or the mail gets hope lessly confused and even lost
 There are many difficulties that have to be overcome by Uncle Sam's military postal system in France When these are considered, the postal service seems marvel of efficiency, and it is to be wondered that there are not more letters, sent to the boys at the front, that are not lost or delayed.

SULZER MAKES GREAT SPEECH
 AT CORD0VA

CORDOvA, Oct. 23.-Delegate Sul- ger addressed a large audience of Cordovans tonight, making effective answer to Wickersham's recent speech here, in which charges of pro- -Germanism and slackerism were made.
 Referring to his birth MT. Sulzer showed that his father left Ger many when eighteen, after cDceavor- ing to overthrow autocracy and never returned. He married and raised a large family here. Three brothers, including the delegate, were volunteers in the Spanish-American war and two laid down their lives in the Philippines MT. Sulzer said he had been help. ing the government win the war in every way possible and asked what Wickersham had done to that end, and answered by saying that Fight ing Jim" instead of fighting the kais- CT had devoted himself to fighting the work of the Alaska delegate and Alaska's best friends. Wick" was willing to sacrifice his relatives but would do nothing himself. MT. Sulzer discussed the fisheries bill, saying that unsatisfactory con- ditions of industry called for quick o0 0vvr I'm re Wickersham had done nothing to remedy the defects of the present system. Mr. Sulzer explained the bill saying while not perfect it was start in the right direction and had called for suggestions for it's i'm provement. On the temperance ques- tion he called attention to the fact that he had been an advocate of that doctrine and would not do anything to reopen the question.
 MT. Sulzer is being misrepresented in the home rule bill but does not reopen the question. He read official documents showing Wickershams op- position to home rule by residents of Alaska. He elicited applause and laughter by pointing out how skill fully Wickersham had worded an act to prevent the Alaska legislature ever abolishing delegateship, which he re- garded as his personal prerogative, or changing election laws governing that office.
 Sulzer then discussed the election contest showing that Wickersham's opposition to the Australian ballot was to make possible the illegal vot- ing of unqualified Indians who had been herded and voted in droves at points in the Third division.
 A telegram from the interior de- partment was read showing how the assessment exemption applied to AL aska.
 Mr. Sulzer showed how Wicker sham boasted of patriotism yet bit terly opposed men appointed by President Wilson.
 After a thorough investigation and recounting of work done MT. Sulzer showed evidences of energy and ef- fectiveness surprising to many, es- pecially regarding the development of Alaska's resources. His speech had splendid effect and the dele gate was highly complimented by the citizens who spoke of Slippery Jim" having met his match.
 Delegate Sulzer leaves for Juneau sentiment here is that the ex-delegate has burned out his wick and that his pretenses are a mere sham. DERRY.
