GOVERNMENT OF SHAM

So long has the German government lived. moved and had it's being in intrigue and deceit that it has become govern mcut of sham.
 lis friendship for nations was a sham
 lis ambassadors, pretending friendship for thcpcoplc of the governments to which they were accredited while mapping chart ing and plotting against its hosts, were specialists in the art of sham
 Its private citizcnS, sent to reside in cities and towns of friendly countries to pretend friendship to the people of the com munitv while listing their names for be- traval. were experts in the practice or sham
 Its business men, received by business men of other countries in full fellowship. taken into their industries and their organ nations, yet plotting and schcming to be- tray, were chosen for their ability to sham
 Messages, apparently of genuine good will. sent by the kaiser to Gcrman-Ameri- can organizations, were nothing but sham messages with the secret design of lead- ing these citizens to bctray their country
 Kultm-uational cificicncy-apparent- ly for the welfare and happiness of the German people, but in reality to secure rules in perpetual mastery. Sham
 The kaiser addressing German troops at Potsdam recently, said, "I represent monarchy by the grace of God.' At an- other time, "Thc spirit of God has descend ed upon me. I am the instrument of the Most High. I am His sword, His represen- tativc on earth" Sham-thc stupcndous sham of the Cordova Times

WAR TO BE WON IN WEST

Amcrica's decision to fight it out on the West Front will assure victory for the British and French experts who have od- yocatcd ccutcrng all attention upon this theatre of war.
 Practically ever since the outbreak of the struggle there have been two contend ing opinions in Allied Europe. One has fa- vored the plan to which the United States now stands committed; the other has strongly advocated more aggressive action in the East.
 The ill-fatcd Dmdanelles operation and tLc Saloniki expedition were outgrowths of the latter policy which, despite the linn itcd results attained by the operations is backed by a certain measure of logic. The weakest members of the Cen tral European alliance are Turkey and Bull gara. If they could be cut off from their fellow conspuators, the way would be open for am invasion of Austria-Hungary
 Against the plan stands the objection of distance It is extremely difficult to maintain large forces so far removed from French and British bases For that reason, the "Westemers" in France and England have stmdily maintained that these nations should concentrate their efforts in the nearer war theatre.
 With the United States committed to this policy, and with every prospect that the conflict can be successfully concluded next year va tremendous Allied drive, a of forces in France-Flanders is to be expected. As Kitchener so prophet ically declared during the eaerly stages of the struggle: "The war will be decided in the West. Seattle Times

AN AUGUST CONCEPTION

Samuel Taylor Colcridgc poet and cs- sayist. writing some 75 years ago, said:
 "Thc possible destiny of the United States of America as a Nation of a hundred million of free men, stretching from the Atlantic to the Pacific, living under the laws of Alfred and speaking the language of Shakespeare and Milton, is am august conception
 The United States is now a nation ct a hundred million and more, stretching from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and reaching out east takes in Hawaii and the Philip pines. in the north Alaska and in the south the Panama Canal. But grander than its physical is its moral greatness. Its fair ness and justice, its courage and power its maintenance of right and freedom cover the world
 The destiny of the United States is now fulfilling is a more august conception than even the imagination of the author of Kubla Khan conceived of less than cen tury ago.

SUGAR IS SHORT

A.asEus have been put on sugar cards uud each person limited to two pounds ot sugar pcr person per month, with maxi mum purchase of four pounds at any one tmHc
 In every campaign that has been msti- utci by the government. Alaskms have gone oyer thc top and in the campaign for saving sugar they should also make a rec ord.
 Two pounds is the limit that each per son i, allowed but that person does mot have to usc that much. and if that much is not used. the card held by the one using less is designated as am honor card
 By everyone trying to see how little sugar they can use. Alaska can make a rec ord for honor cards per capita in the com- try and help not only the people of this country. but the people of Europe who are held down to far smaller allowances than we are.
 Come to think of it, we never did like sugar uvway-did we?
