ALAskANs NOT TO BE TRUSTED.

James Wickersham has let the cat out of the bag. He said before the House Committee purposely drew the Organic Act of Alaska prevent the Alaska Legislature from passing Australian ballot law which would be legal; that the people of Alaska to be trusted with much power In contrast, comes Delegate Charles A. Sulzer who made powerful plea in behalf of the fitness of Aaskans govern themselves He has shown his faith by having introduced bill ferring Alaska full Territorial powers Wickersham the other hand could be prevailed upon troduce such bill Instead he stood by his Organic Act which he himself declares limits the powers the Territorial Legislature They might play at goyern ment but they must be given any twoedged tools for fear that they might hurt themselves This faherly interest in the welfare of tn epeople of Alaska who treated children is pathetic However James Wicker sham selfshly figured that by keeping away from the people of Alaska their right to regulate their affairs it would interfere with his ambitions for being dominating figure in Alaskan politics. The election of Delegate Sulzer and the quiet determined work of Mr. Suzer entirely lacking the grandstand display efforts his predecessor have sadly sarranged the plans of Mir Wickersham Cornered by the House Committee for why the Australian ballot should not govern Alaska he struck out blndy and boasted that void because he had purposely drawn the Organic Act to prevent the Legislature from passing election laws their own protecton-Juneau Empire.

NO SIGN OF DEFEAT YET.

In the interim between the writing of this comment and the time it reaches the reader, some changes may have occurred that will prove this assertion faulty; nevertheless, and after due consideration of the unfavorable reports of the war situation Saturday; we see no grave reason to justify fear of the ultimate result.
 In our opinion, the reverses sustained by the British last Saturday were to be expected. The first British line broken through by the Germans was without doubt line set up merely to offer sufficient resistance to determine the enemy s strength. The real fighting line of defense is never on the front in the beginning of battle ]; Whereas, the reverse applies to the aggressor. In order to break through the British first line, a force, possibly three times that of the British was necessary. In all battles, the aggressor must use more force than the defense; and we have no reason to believe in this case the British made an exception. While we dislike to have to record such news, we see no reason to cause apprehen- sion of the ultimate result.

WELL WORTH PRACTICING

It matters not in which manner the saving Is made; in time of peace saving is virtue that brings happiness to the saver The knowledge that we save something makes us happy In war time, saving is made military necessity and those who have acquired the habit of saving n time of peace, do not find it hard to save now 1t is otherwise with the spendthrift wko has never taken the view that saving was virtue and he finds 1t hard to learn that to waste or ise messealials in these dark days is not only despicaola but also disoyal Saving now by the stay-at-home Is equal to fighting. If our life depended on the lighting we can make, how hard We would fight may well be imagined: and really that Is just what We are doing now-or should be doing. We must save. not only to save our lives but the lives Of those on the front and of civilization itself. We are fighting the uncivil- ized Let every one of us take firm resolution to save and whatever we save let us invest it in War Savings Stamps or Thrift Stamps, and thus acquire the feeling that we are doing something to help our country and civilization.
