icize the Russians for tolerating if not encour- aging anarchy when every state in our country and even the federal government itself may be said to be more or less guilty of the same fault Like Russia the United States is making grave mistake not to shut out all the trouble makers.
 The Russian leader today is a sort of social ist-anarchist and while he has good many fine ideas for the settlement of society, he also ir- dulges in lot of visionary and unavoidable doc trines just as his kind in all lands do. While it is true in strict sense that socialism and anarch ism are direct opposites, in practice we find them always cooperating for the destruction of exist ing institutions. Which is just what they are doing in the United States today. The results obtained in Russia should awaken our govern ment to the realization that something should be done at once. To allow the present conditions to exist is criminal laXity.

COME AGAIN. GOVERNOR

Tn his first proclamation suspending the effect of the eight-hour law, Governor Strong specifically mentioned salmon" and order ed that the force of the law be suspend ed in so far as that part of the industry was concerned emitting to mention other food fish. of which there is a large variety. The halibut fishermen and clam canners took proper exception and rightly. demanded of the Governor an explanation for the discrimination. Monday evening, another proclamation was issu- ed-a copy of which was published in yesterdays ssue--in which he includes all kinds. This has the effect of clearing up that which heretofore was left in doubt.
 Incidentally we may ask why did the Cover nor stop there? Why were not sawmills, cold storage plants; light and water powers; logging camps, businesses of every description in anyway depending on the fishing industry for business mentioned? They are all parts of the industry. Without them we wouldn't have the fa and without the fish we wouldn't have the business. And thus we have complete circle.
 AS matter of fact, it may be truly S. that in Southeastern Alaska, in particular, ninety per cent of the population is directly connected witf the fishing industry in either fishing or furnish ing supplies to the fishermen. If the suppl, houses can be said to be connected with 5he in- dust1y legally-there is hardly q. .out then why weren't they mentioned? Il would have avoided complication.
 Now in regard to that obnoxious law while t is true that the voters by their vote demanded an eight-hour law we candidly believe that had the law as enacted, been presented to them, they would have rejected it. A law making eight ffaJS oil in b,,f not in general Especially when that law pro- hibits overtime. But as bad as the law is, so far as the southeastern peoples are concerned we could possibly manage to get through were it not for the great shortage of labor due to the heavy demand for men for the front As it is, we are all bawled up.
 Come again Governor. give us a hand out of that difficulty.

Nearly every newspaper publisher in Alaska is encouraging the folks to send the home paper to the boys on the front. This is very we'll but why not go step farther and let every publish CT send his publication free to the boys. There is no doubt but that they would enjoy getting news from their town. The Progressive Miner has adopted the plan from the beginning, and the many notes of appreciation we have received for the favor have fully paid for the expense. Truly it is little enough to do for the boys.

They have excelled in everything except fighting like men.

WASHINGTON, April 22.--According
to telegram from Berlin to Zurich,
received here to-day through French
official channels, Count Czernin, lately
Austro-H Hungarian Foreign Minister.
soon will be appointed Ambassador to
Germany.
The present Ambassador is Prince
Won Hohenlohe, who was summoned to
Vienna a few days ago and whose un-
expected return gave occasion to MANY
comments. at should also be remem-
bered," says the dispatch, chat Czernin
recently was informed that it would
not be long before he received a new
post.
Lastly, the former minister is now
in sufficient favor in Berlin's political
and military circles for him to be in
trusted with the representation of The
empire of the Danube at the court of
William H."
Baron Burian will hold the office of
Foreign Minister for short time only,
dispatch from France to-day said.
1t quoted a semi-official note issued in
Vienna as follows:
Baron Burian considers it his chief
duty to subdue the internal struggles,
and consequently, unless he is com
PEELED from circumstances, he will
avoid undertaking important diplo-
matte action. He will wait until his
successor has been found. The cam
paign for his succession can therefore
be considered as actually open. The
Emperor Charles has had recourse to
the Minister Of Finance because he did
not wish for the moment to appeal
either to Count Tisza or to Count An
drassy
"One wonders if, as things stand. it
is possible for an interim to last out
any considerable length of time. Pub
lie opinion, indeed openly declares
against a minister who possesses so
little authority and whose position is
so insecure. The Magyars especially
are displeased. They wished for a
Minister of Foreign Affairs who would
be strong enough to remain in office
until the end of the war. With Baron
Burian they are compelled to give up
this hope entirely"

the end of political domination and

WASHINGTON. April 22.-What has

Philadelphia and to provide wholesome
environment for the thousands of ma
rines and blucjackets stationed in and
about that city was the subject of a
long conference here to-day between
Secretary Daniels and Lieutenant Colo

tailed recently to represent the Navy
Department in this work.
Both the Secretary and Colonel
Hatch made it plain that the navy has
no thought of taking over the policing
Of Philadelphia, but will insist upon
the city officials enforcing their own
laws. They said citizens of Philadel-
phia were giving aid and encourage

Before returning to Philadelphia late
to-day Colonel Hatch issued this state
men.:

insist that the officials of Philadelphia

improve them. l shall, of course, con-

Change Predicted
Dispatch From Toxic Saws
Prcmier's Illness Gives Basis
to Runors
[By a Japanese Correspondent

10y d JapaLeSe correspondent
SAN FRANCISCO, April 22.-Rumor
OF the immediate fall of the 'Tcrauchi
Cabinet is persistent in high political
circles in Toxic, according to a cabled
dispatch to a Japanese paper here.
Dlscouraging views as to the con-
tlnuance of the present Cabinet are
based on the reported continued ILL.,
ness of the Premier, as wetll as Of
the Foreign Minister. Then there is
the disappointing outcome of the ST.
berian expedition.
The general opinion in Toxic is that
a new regime will be former. with the
leaders of the seiyu party Zone of
the leading political parties in the
empire) as the nucleus. MARQUIS Sal
onji, the leader of the Seiyu party for
years until his retirement. and twice
Premier--in 1905 and in 1911-is the
man picked out for the Premiership of
the new combination. There is grave
doubt, however, that Marquis Saionii
will accept the portfolio. Mr.. Kei Hara,
who was the Minister of the Interior
in the Saionji Cabinet of 1906. and
who has held the same position twice
since, is mentioned as the most likely
candidate for the Premiership.
Although it has been repeatedly ru-
mored that Viscount Uchida, Just home
from Russia, has refused to accept the
portfolio of the Foreign Minister, sue
ceeding Viscount Motono, it is pretty
certain that Uchida will be the foreign
Minister in the new regime.

Germany Holds Back
Russian Prisoners
Utilizes Their Labor While
Transport Conditions"
DELAY Return

AMSTERDAM, April 22.-Germanys
determination to utilize the labor OF
Russian prisoners as long as possible
seems to be reflected in an official COM
munication which has been issued to
the German press. After referring to
the fact that conditions at present
reigning in Russia make an Immediate
return of all German prisoners OF war
impossible, the note says that the
transport to their own country of Rus
sian prisoners from Germany can pro-
cced only very slowly and must extend
over long period.
The note in giving reasons for the
delay in repatriating Russians refers
to the strain which the war makes on
transport communications and the
large number of prisoners in German
hands, and finally refers to the posi-
bility of these prisoners preferring to
remain in Germany
