GERMAN DISCONTENT.

Chancellor von Hertling attributes the deep dis content" which he admits has seized wide cir ces of the population" in Germany, to the suffer inps and sacrifices of the terrible four years of war" In this he is disineenuous. Four years oi war have brought the German people to point where they would naturally demand why the prom ises of victorious peace often held out to them by their rulers not being fulfilled.
 What really hurts them. however, is that they are finally waking up the real zation that vic tory has eluded them. They feel themselves slip ring and beginning to show the yellow streak In vain does Hertling cite the dark moments of tho past such the failure of the Verdun assault, the somme battles and Bruson's offensive On those occasions Germany able to from the scene of momentary defeat to some field where victory possible Her armies still had ample reserves

REPUDIATE THE UN-AMERICAN RUSSELL
 PAMPHLET.

Reports come from the ou-of-the-way places Of the First Division and from Ketchikan that E. C. Rus sell the Wickite candidate for Territorial Senator, is flooding the First Division with pamphlet which charges William Britt of pro Germanism and lack of patriotism. It the duty of the voters to put the stamp their dsapprova this sort of character by the defeat of the character assassin, and to vindcate the patriotic Amerlcan who has been sandered by electing him. To countenance this sort of a campaign would be expose every good citizen the poisonous Of the hateful, and imperil all who stand in the of unprincipled self-servers It would mean that mans reputation would be safe. It would specially jeopardze the good name of every foreign born American. It must not be to- erated by those who laying the foundation stones of a commonwealth in Alaska. Alaska must be kept above that sort of thing.
 MT. Russell knows that MT. Britt is patriotic American, do all the other citizens of Juneau who know anything about the subject. To attack ones patriotism for the purpose of winning office is the worst sort of nn-Amercanism-it is a direct assault upon democracy, the corierstone of Republic.

Since the foregoing written, comes from Ketchikan that circular letter, prominently dis playing the American flag and signed Alaska De- fense Society,", has been distributed in the mails throughout the First Division. charging MT. Britt with being pro-German and urging the voters to sup port MT, Russell, the Wickite. Investigation dis closes that there is Alaska Defense Society,"
 This of the American flag and patriotic sounding is clearly attempt to induce the in ference that people interested in work tacking MT Britt for patriotic This is ab soluely untrue. The patriotic people of Juneau rec ognize MT. Britts loyalty patriotism democracy and Americanism beyond reproach.
 The use of the Flag of the Fathers, the emblem o our common country and the attempted of the war feeling in the great struggle against the Huns and monarchy, the battle for democracy, ambushes from which to attack the character and destroy the reputation of American citizen who has served his people and his community faithfully and with honor is unpatriotic beyond expression and cowardly be meath contempt. They should make the red blood o every patriotic American in the First Division boi with righteous indignation.

For fifteen or sixteen years John
Howell has been prominently identified

road agent In both capacities he has

the people and his ever accommodate

him, and when he was borne to his
last resting place at the Pea Ridge
burial ground, practically every men,
Der of the community, who was able
and well enough, attended the serv-
ices.
Rev. Mr.. Lynch, pastor OF the Bap-
list Church at Milton, conducted the
services.
John Howell was 65 years OF age.
He was a native of North Carolina, but
had spent the better portion of his life
in Florida, where for some 90 years
or more, he had been connected with
Captain S. Otis, in the saw mill bust
| ness at this place. He sustained a
severe injury while engaged in this
work and was rendered the postmas-
tership and railroad agency here. The
work being largely clerical, the duties
Z were such as he was able to perform.
Captain s. Otis especially Graves
| over the death Of Mr.. Howell, as he had
been intimately associated with him
for many years.
Mr.. Howell is survived by his wife
and by several grown children living
in distant states.
