whether or not some arrangement
could be made whereby responsible

when feed is so high and farmers real

Warning
To Gas Consumers

On account of the continued cold weather there is danger Of
frost accumuaing in the gas services. This may cut off the supply
of gas at any time. Later this may disappear to an extent that will
allow a small amount of gas to flow through the service pipes.
AS a precaution against danger we make the following suggest
ions to consumers.
When you find that the supply is shut off, look over all burners
and make sure that they are turned off.
If upon opening a burner the gas does not flow, be sure to close
it before leaving.
Do not go to sleep with any gas burning in your sleeping room.
To insure safety, all automatic appliances should be connected
to a flue.
If you smell gas examine and turn off all burner cocks.
Do not, under any circumstances, search for a gas leak with a
candle or match.

TEDDY'S TYPEWRITER.

Let us, says Theodore Roosevelt in his latest 1usllade Of chatter against the Presidents notes to Germany, let us dictate peace by the hammerinp guns and not chat about peace the accompaniment of the clicking typewrters"
 Whereupon our rrepressble chatterer of Oyster Bay unllmbered his own typewriter and clicked off a long dispatch to friendly Congressmen at Wash ington, in which he declared that ought to make it clear to the world that we are neither an un- trustworthy friend irresolute foe. Let HIS clearly show that do desire pose as the um- pire between faithful loyal friends and our treacherous and brutal enemies, but that We are the stanch ally of friends and the stanch foe of our enemies
 And that is just what made clear to the world Teddy dear; and we made il clear by 'the hammering guns and not by the clicking typewriters" of Oy- ster Bay, elsewhere.
 Our "hammering guns fired the last shot of the war and boys captured the last town to cap- tulae just fifteen minutes before the armistice went into effect.
 But did more than that. We kept standing the invitation the o Europe abolish their systems and their nonarchs, and their military caste and to join the democstic worll. They accepted the invitation and there Emperors and Kings to abdicate in less than a week than Teddy has eaten up in a long time. The victory has been made complete the terms satisfactory

Greater Diversity of Canned Fish Products Needed
(Pacifc Fisherman.)

(Pacfc Fisherman.)
 The expansion of the next few years in the fish canning industry must evidently be in other lines than salmon canning. The depletion of the Puget Sound supply is now recognized and this district must have time to recuperate; and while some further expansion may be possible in Alaska, warn mig note has been clearly sounded this that his fishery is nearing it's limit of safe development, The worlds demand for canned salmon has for some years kept pace with production and has frequently passed it; and it is safe to predict that there will never be a surplus over the markets needs. At he present time the trade has scarcely half the quantity that consumers would use; and here is the opportunity from both the sellers and the producers standpoint, for the development of other fish canning industries.
 Gamers of sardnes, pilchards and herring, quarters at least, making much of this oppor unity. Their products helping to take the place )f salmon the shelves of the trade the tables consumers and very encouraging progress is being made here and there in canning less we'll known fishes There many other varieties of fish, well she'll fish, however, along the Pacific Coast which would doubt be adaptable to the canning process the oorrect methods applied and the canning of pill chards and herring is capable of vastly greatly devel opment than has yet been attempted especially in the northern part of the Pacific Coast.
 From the producers viewpoint what is especially needed just is greater variety particularly from Puget Sound north where salmon has been practically he only fish hitherto considered by On Puget Sound, the development of other kinds of eral for canning is imperative if the industry is to survive; and even in Alaska the growth of the ming industry cannot continue much longer if salmon is to remain the and only chance. The seasonal character of the salmon has given rise to difficult la Dor problems well to a heavy overhead oense that is most repugnant to the spirit of mod 9rn economy. If greater variety could be introduced to proong the working season without ma terally adding to the expense a great step would be taken toward the solution of these problems.

Keystone of the arch of Kaiserism and Kultur that he is-or was-William of Hohenzollern has by his reported abdcaon doomed that evil constructure to destruction
 His reported fall presages the speedy surrender of the German military forces and the ending this slaughter of human beings. Even the process is nearing it's completion.
 There was other step to be taken after the grim General Foch acting for the impacable Allies, read his harsh, though just, terms for armistce and sternly refused suspension of hostilites the Rhine from plundered Flanders and France the red flags are rising to mark the revolution of the worn and wearied people of ermany. Mutiny reigns in the imprisoned fleets Kiel Heligoland and Will hemshaven and republic has been declared in Ba- varia. The Sedan of Prussian autocracy has been reached.

The Warning from Massachusetts
(New York World ]


 Ex-Gov. David l. Walsh of Massachusetts is the first Democrat elected to the United States Senate from that State since the organization of the Repub- can Party This is not particularly significant of any thing related to the recent constitutional change from the legislative to the popular vote in the election of United States Senators, for Senator Lodge had been reelected by popular in 1916 It's great significance must rather be found in the pol ices for which the defeated Republican candidate Senator John w. Weeks had come stand
 Since the United States entered the war MT. Weeks in the Senate has taken a leading position as an obstructive critic of the President for ap- parently partisan reasons only. Among those prom nent Republicans who have sought to capitalize the conduct of the war and the conditions of peace and the results of the war to party Weeks been conspicuous This is true whether We consider the attempt in Congress to transfer functions the Executive Commander in Chief to three dis tlnguished citizens of demonstrated ability" or the more recent effort to upset the Presidents peace terms after virtual acceptance by all the Allied The defeat of MT. Weeks by plurality about equal to that given to the Republican candidate for Cover nor Is condemnation of this attitude by highly in tellgent and normally Republican electorate too clear to be mistaken. Massachusetts has no svmpathv with disruption of national politices the war or with TO- actlonary party politics to follow the war There is warning in this winch Senator Lodge may not miss.

 This is not only gratuitous insult to able and conscientious in Alaska who are under solemn oath perform official duties, but it is an insult to the intelligence of Alaskans.
 It is an outrageous shame that the people of Alaska have put up with Herrons noisome news papers, Heron makes money in the East selling stock in his personally organized Alaskan corporations, which he uses in part at least to operate papers, hiring foolish writers to vilily who devot- ing their ability to the substantial development of Alaska and the capable earnest administration of law in this Territory In times past Heron was rigger of primaries and would be dxer of tions, and he finds great deal of pleasure apparently, in boasting~of his achievements in that line. He is trying 10 fix things so that he may become Republican National committeeman. He pos siby thinks that would help him to rig the Terri tory of Alaska in the event of Republican in the Nation two years hence, and at least it would have tendency to make stock-seliing easier.
