A few years following the war taxes are naturally and necessa. fly going to be high. The Ire.
 nendous War-debt created, and
 .videnced by bonds, must be ,aid; but one good thing about fl is that more of this bonded in
 lebtedness will be paid direct to the people and taxpayers than any bond indebtedness ever be- fore made, for, as q matter of fact, more of these bonds and war-savlng stamps are held by the masses than was ever be- fore known. Another thing that
 gill ( helpful and. especially to the farmer, is thlt field products, of all kinds, and livestock, will range at a high price for years to come. Hence, as a matter of course. our taxes will range high CT than before the war period, on arcount of the increased value of products and the large money in- crease, in circulation, they will bc easier paid than ever. Yak ing all things into consideration, we believe the United States has now before it the brightest flu. ture of any nation in the wide world.

MIR TAFT ON THE WAR CAMPS
(NeW York WOrld)

(New York WOrld)
 A former Secretary of War as well as former President William II. Taft is witness in army ma ters whose word the country accept final in authority The results of his inspection of thirteen National Army camps besides Camp Sheridan and the Great Lakes Naval Station, given in an address before the National Geographic Society are set forth in it's magazine. u .
 Cost greatly exceeded estimates, but MT Iatt cannot find that is real ground for criticism in the circumstances Haste the first requisite contractors profits varied from to 30 per cent The health the has been excellent The death-rate for all troops from disease only, to Feb S. was S1 compared with 25 for all troops in the Spanish War, from disease only, and 202 in the Japanese Army in the with Russia.
 Like all practical men, Mir. Taft recognizes that quick training the paramount consideration Hence. though health better in the Northern camps ana dust a severe obstacle in the South he holds that all the camps should have been placed in the South for great facility in Winter training The men are "comfortably housed" Their moral condition is well guarded and mo camps have been so free from drunkenness" Every camp had it's base hospital at time of his visit, and little illness could fairly be attributed to insufficient clothing"
 "The drafted mems food" says Mir Taft, 'is of the best. My boy in the ranks has told me that they have tradition among the men-and think susainedhat their food is better than that of the officers" Mr Taft himself believes that the off have deprived themselves needlessly of some comforts through mistaken idea of Spartan rgor.
 While the draft law doubtless needs amend "vindicated itself in every way and that upon the whole I've had begun the right" It is conclus- tion with which fewer of people will quarrel every day brings fresh proof of the power and promptness of the American contribution to the com mon cause of humanity

NICARAGUA IN THE WAR

The entrance of Nicaragua in the the side of the Allies is important on account of trade matters than anything else It will give the Allies rights of commercial nature in Nicaragua that we could get from a neutral Naton and give us rights in connection with food stuffs that we oth erwise would not have. Nicaragua is the second of the Central American countries declare war on Germany, Panama being the other one. She is the firth American Nation to act the others being the United States. Brazil, Cuba and Panama However, all the other Central American Nations except Salva dor and Haiti in North America and Bolivia Peru and Uruguay in South America have diplomatic relations with Germany.
 Nicaragua has been generally regarded as the strongest of the Central American Nations since the war of 1907 when she victories from Honduras and Costa Rica boundary disputes. Her reve nues are greater than those of any other Centra American country and her area is larger. HeI population and commerce. however. not as great as those of Guatemala Honduras.

Word has been received that the Shipping Board will conduct hearings in Juneau beginning May 18th. It will consider the questions of rates sched- and other of the service rendered by the steamship companies, and the question to whether American vessels give the people ade' quate facilities the movement of fish from Alaska the Sound In this connection arguments in favor permitting Canadian vessels to enter the Alaskan trade will be heard.
 It is very desirable that all those who have com plaints, reasons why freight rates should be re- duced, arguments to present to favor of better transportation service, anything of nature kind whatsoever in connection with shipping to suggest should prepare present their needs and desires at these hearings. that the disposition of the Shipping Board is to give the people square deal but it is not likely that further hearings will be given for long time. These hearings have been because there has been much said con corning these matters, of desire to secure information. This is the great chance people of Alaska have had, and they should make the most of it.

THE GREAT, TRANSFORMING QUERY

There died short time ago. in Flanders fields where poppes blow, young Ohio man, stricken by shrapne he stopped to raise wounded comrade. In a memorial service held in the church by those who had bade him farewell he marched away in khaki there paid the tribute of the reading of which must have come from the heart, not brain, of the Canadian father who wrote it after receiving the fateful message announcing his own sons death. It's message to the living eigibes for military service and their relatives is wonderful one In it is to be found summed up in compelling argument the philosophy of the times and none can read it without understanding where his duty lies These the really beautiful lines
 God gave my in trust to me;
 Christ died for him, and he should be
 A for Christ He's in his
 And Gods and mans-not mine alone
 He not mine to give. He gave
 Himself that he might help to save
 All that a Christian should revere
 All that enlightened men hold dear,
 What if he does not come? you say.
 An, we'll! My sky would be gray:
 But through the clouds the would shine
 And vital memories be mine.
 Gods test of manhood it, l know,
 Not Will he come? but Did he go?'"
