H. R. RASMUSSEN IS HELD AT DOUGLAS ON
 CHARGE OF SEDITION

DOUGLAS, Feb. PHI. R. Ras- Hlussen, a white man who is mar ried to Native woman and whose home is on the beach here, was ar rested last night on the charge of assault preferred by his wife. The woman presented herself at the of flee of United States Commissioner Henson with her dress badly torn and said her husband had assaulted her because she attended the meet ing of the Native auxiliary of the Red Cross.
 Rasmussen was arrested and ta- ken to jail but as Deputy Marshal Harry Morton and City Marahsl George Johnson have had their eyes on the man for some time, bad re- ports about him having been waited to their ears, they instituted an in- vestigatiOn at the mans home and among his neighbors and found what was considered sufficient evidence on which to base charge of sedi- tion against him which was done. hC U llol OI thC lOI OtuillOIl is taking place before Judge Henson and a jury of twelve men this af- ternoon beginning at 2:30 o'clock.
 The witnesses for the prosecution are Miss Greece, the teacher of the Native school, Johnny Fox, an intel ligent and patriotic Native, and Ras- fnussen's wife and daughter the lat ter 9 small girl ~ rw-.e~
 About month ago Rasmussen wife complained tc. the officers that her husband seriously objected to her doing work for the Red Cross but insisted that she devote her time to making moccasins for sale, con- tending that the money she obtained by their sale was needed in the fam lily. At that time the woman, while very angry at the attitude of her husband, declined to swear out a warrant for his arrest but promised that the next time he interferred with her Red Cross work or assault ed her, she would have him arrested That time came yesterday evening when she reached home after spend ing the afternoon at the Red Cross headquarters for the Native women.
 Neighbors of Rasmussen have re- ported frequently of late concerning his attitude toward the war and have not hesitated to state that he enter tains prO-German sentiments.

DOUGLAS SCHOOL NOTES

DOUGLAS, Feb. 21. 1T Loyalty Hour" is being observed. every week in the Douglas public schools and a special hour was observed today in honor of the memory of George Washington. Rev. E. s. Bollinger spoke to the pupils and teachers on "The First Period of the War his address being both interesting and instructive. Owing to the lack of space it is not possible to invite parents and outsiders to these 'Loy alty" exercises, much as would please the principal, other teachers and pupils to have them.
 A new feature is being introduced in the school that of having pupils in the senior departments deliver four-minute speeches on current top ics. While this will interest the younger pupils, it will also be good training for the seniors.
 Dr. A. R. Sergeant, president o1 the school board, visited the schoo yesterday forenoon and for his bene fit fire drill was held, the build ing being wholly emptied within fiji ty seconds after the alarm was sounded and with no movements faster than walk Tomorrow vii be a holiday for the school.

COM M U NJ c A T E D

JUNEAU6 Feb Is, 1918, to the lightenment please. Why is it that avowed subjects of a certain Euro
 pean Monarch are given working preference here over genuine native born Americans? 1 have found this
 condition of preferential treatment of foreigners pretty general through out Alaska, especially at points where these eXotics have congre- gated in what should be called
 "job colonies" l have been thor
 oughly convinced of the fact that
 "bossess' of a particular nationality will give none other than compa-
 triots work-not if they can possi- bly, avoid it. Americans, whose
 hairsute appendages conform to the
 required shade, might slip in" on
 few days work-until their Amer ican nativity is established-then, presto change. jobless again! Why,
 1 ask The Empire, is this state of affairs tolerated The writer can
 point, at this moment to real Amer jeans who need work, but who have
 been unceremoniously side-tracked by foreign "bosses" in order that their own countrymen-their own
 decidedly un-American countrymen may have the advantage. Did
 say that these gentry were un-
 Americans. More than that, sir
 they are brazenly disloyal. Many of these foreign subjects are hold
 ing good jobs and receiving good 1 American money, are quite out
 spoken in their sympathies with
 Americas s enemies. American read CTS of The Empire cannot evince sur | prise at this if they are aware of 1 the fact that the trans-A tlantic i homeland of these particular sub | jects" is the breeding place of a great pan-Germanist League. In- deed, one hears great many strange statements ever and anon ; , and those gentlemen in the Terri tory here who have any connections
 with the work of the National Se- curity League are recommended to
 keep their ears at attention. More over, Americans in Alaska must be
 as limited in number as hens teeth who think for a moment that
 Prussia's worldwide plotters have
 overlooked their fair domain.
 Let us hope so: for there is not
 de medician trick or piece of Ho-
 henzollern sculduggery that will not
 be pulled off if William the
 bloody" can work his will with the
 Muscovite mix-up. Look at the

The Keys of Bremen" unlock no flood of tender fancies fin the breasts of Americans these days; they are decidedly net the keys to the regard and good will of us Yankees. There is a saloon somewhere in America which for long time proudly wore this insignia of the German harbor city as ''liet-motif" of its decora- lions. Bremen's keys were crossed upon the globes surmounting the glass columns at the door, upon the walls and upon the casks of featured whiskey. The German flag, the Ger man Emperors portrait, von Hin- denburg, and the Keys of Brem- en" are all equally obnoxious, out of place, and disgruntling to every American and should be immediate ly wiped away from every Ameri- cans sight

dangerously close to Alaskas shores. Would it shock you real Americans of Juneau to awake some fine morn ing and find your city the base for an attack of the Teutons against British North America and the Con tinental United States? Remember that less likely things have hap pened since 1914.
 But, wait a minute, MT. Editor, I think l started out with sriev- ance against grouped" foreign sub jects elbowing us out of work. That is just the case, and why is it so? Tell us, if you please. In parts of South America they have native workmen's assurance societies that have as a main object the equal dis tribution of work. Some such or ganization in Juneau would hedp a little.
