RAMPANT PATRIOTISM IS PLAINLY APPARENT
 ON DOUGLAS ISLAND

DOUGLAS, Jan 5.-There are no slackers among those named by Governor Strong to represent the towns of Douglas and Treadwell on the Territorial Council of Defense as it was noted that every man named, except one, Hon. Monte Benson, who is not in the. Territory, was present at the meeting held last night in the court room of United States Commissioner John Henson for the purpose of organization, it having been previously decided, that, in view of the fact that the two towns designated are practically one, it would be preferable to have but one council.
 Ins addition to all the Governors appointees being present, others, anxious to participate in anything tending to aid the country in its time of stress, came to inquire il the meeting was of public nature and had it been they were prepared to participate in it to the end that the public good and welfare might be advanced. While the meeting was not a public one, but merely for the purpose of organization, il spoke well for the patriotism and loyalty of those who showed suffic tent interest in the object of the meeting to desire to participate in it. Organization was perfected by the election of the following officers:
 E. J. White, President; P. R. Brad ley, Vice President; F. A. J. Gall was. Secretary; J. w. Martin, Treas urer.
 General plans for cooperating with the Territorial organization at .Iu neau for the general welfare and protection of the country in the present crisis were discussed at length and when the meeting ad journed it was tN meet again at the call of the chairman.
 The sentiment embodied in that old expression, England expects ev cry man to do his duty" finds hear ty endorsement on the Island with the substitution of America" for "England.

INTELLIGENT INMATE OF PIONEERS HOME
 SENDS NICE LETTER

DOUGLAS, Jan. 5.--The following letter was received this morning by Mrs. John Feusi in reply to the nice list of holiday presents sent by her to the inmates of the Pioneers Home at Sitka:
 Pioneers Home, Sitka,
 January 3, 1918. Mrs. Feusi,
 Douglas, Alaska.
 Dear Madam:
 "You will pardon me for taking this liberty as I am a newcomer in the Home, having been here only four months. But I am an oldtimer in Alaska, having been resident of the Territory for 20 years, during which time I have never visited the outside world I lived in the Interior until coming to the Home. l am a marine engineer and ran as chief on several steamers operated on the Yukon river and it's tributaries, all of these 20 years. Before coming north I was engaged in the same
  19 years, making a total of 39 years without missing a season. New Years day was my birthday and was "A years old.
 Tn coming here from the interior four months ago and while in Ju- neau I called on Governor Strong and I must say I was entertained by him in a manner that made me his friend for all time to come. He has made an ideal home for us here, and I, for one, am thankful to him for sondoing. The quarters are fine and all who are here should be thankful to him for them. Never theless there are several here who do not appreciate the kindness of the Governor and yet, never before in their existence, did they have the comforts they get here at the Home. Some people are void of common sense and growl and enter complaints, no matter what is done for their comforts. But the best way is to pay no attention to them as they are not capable of apprecia- ton.
 have asked several of the in- mates to sign this with me and express their appreciation for your Kindness in remembering us with such substantial presents which brought much pleasure to us in the glad Christmas season. but they all
