the American people. 1t was read last
night at an ai.-Amcrican benefit con-
cert in the Hippodrome by Henry G.
ouimby. OF the American Defense go
ciety. who voiced the colonefs regret at
his fftatbility to be present in person
because of illness.
II cannot be with you and so all I
can do is wish you Godspeed," wrote
the colonel. There must be no sag
ging back in the fight for Americanism
just because the war Is over.
There can be no divided allegiance
here. Any man who says he Is an
American, but something else also,
isn't an American at all. We have room,
for but one flag. the American flag. and
this excludes the red flag which sym
bolizes all wars against liberty and
civilization, just as much as IT excludes
any foreign flag OF nation to which
We are hostile.

 Need of Civic Pride
 /, George Anderson makes some good suggestions to improve Juneau. Mir. Anderson agrees that business is good, but he sure takes a whack at our civic pride. We guess he's right. What do you think? Mir Anderson says
 Business in my line has been ex cellent and the outlook for the fu- ture is good To make Juneau a big ger and better place to live in, it if necessary that the city establish { public swimming pool, more especial ly for the youth of Juneau, and play ground or public park in con junction with same.
 Juneau also should have muni cipal band, and this city should in terest itself to the extent of a $5( monthly investment towards the en gazing of some good conductor to complete an organization of that character The talent is here. all it lacks is leadership. Skagway has its public skating rink, also fine ten. his court. Ketchikan used to have it's municipal band. Sitka has a fine public park. Fairbanks has a race course and a number of real classy racing boats. It also has public swimming pool Valdez has also some civic pride.

is good in a business way, but in civic pride, generally she is a fail ure."
 Always Had Faith in Juneau.
 MT. F. Wolland of the Wolland Tailor Shop stands strong for home trade. He says:
 My business is steadily increasing have always had faith in the future of Juneau and stuck with the town through thick and thin. Nothing gives the people who invest their money in merchandise quite so much encouragement as home patronage. Home patronage is the secret of a
 busy town. These huge catalogues. tons of them that are allowed to come into our city from the various big mail order houses at little ex pense are a pest and are abomina- tion! To an minimizing man they spell economy. An article may be quoted a few cents lower in the catalogue and he sends for it. He loes not figure on wharfage and 'reight charges at the time and always pays more in the end I am sure if 1e went to our local merchants first md asked them what they would luote him on the same sized order. he would save money. Let us be public spirited enough to buy at home and make a better Juneau" Speaks for Home People Hugo Heidorn, merchant and tailor also advocates home patronage. MT. Heidorn says: Home patronage goes long ways toward promoting prosperity and creating home indus try and steady employment. It
 makes a contented community which spells permanency. We should pre-
 fer this condition to that of float. ing population. l have found my business this year in Juneau has in- creased 25 per cent. I believe Ju- neau is the best town in Alaska"

ALASKA CRAFT
 NOW NUMBER
 OVER THOUSAND
Vessels of All Classes Reg- lstered in Alaska High est in the History of
 Territory

For the rst time in the history of the Alaska Customs district the num- Der of vessels documented in Alaska has passed the 1000 mark The close of the fiscal year, June 30 found 1,018 vessels of all sizes and classes registered with home ports in Alaska
 For some years Alaska has been near the 1000 mark in the number of vessels registered, but never quite reached it. In the last quarter of the last fiscal year there was a gain in the number of Alaska registered craft of 55 bringing the total from 963 to 1,01S.
 The average size for vessels in Alaska is not large on account of the great number of small craft engaged in the fisheries. The total tonnage of the 1,01S vessels which homeport in this Territory is 79,584, an average of little over 7S tons each
 In addition to this vast registered mosquito fleet there are hundreds of craft that are below 15 tons in size, and therefore do not require register ing.
 During the quarter ending June 30, r newly-built vessels were regis tered in Alaska; 13 boats were re- built in the Territory and re-regis- tered, and 2S changed their home ports from other Customs Districts to the Alaska district. Three yes sels. heretofore registered in Alaska, were abandoned-mak the net gain 55. Most of those changing their nome port came to Alaska from the Seattle Customs District

Some More Interviews From Juneau Residents Breath ing the Spirit of Op-
 timism.

Reconstruction on problems now throbbing through the pulse of Am erican business, civic pride, the ne cessity of buying at home, and the new Juneau spirit of optimism which is showing greater outlook on the horizon of Juneau. are touched upon today in expressions from Ju- neau residents.
 Excellent Suggestions.
 B. A. Rosselle of Goldstein's Elm porium, gave us a most interesting interview He says:
 T believe the majority of busi- ness men in Juneau will, without consulting any records concede that the year 1913 was one of the best ever experienced in this section.
 In consulting my sales records l find that the past month, July, was far ahead of any month during the year 1913 and this is exclusive Of fur sales which are not grouped with our mercantile division. The present month of August has opened up well and our sales thus far are slightly over July Under these circun- stances I feel optimistic as regarls sthe remainder of the season. Cur business from the first of the year to June 30 was far beyond our expec- tations, July was surprising and Aug ust is an Improvement over July.
 Our country is now undergoing the ,.,,oocc of raoop ctr,Iotiou and cnpdi tions generally are to slight de- gree unsettled which undoubtedly is brought about by economic problems that have presented themselves and which our government is now under taking to solve. If our people will go about these various questions in cool. thoughtful manner I believe short time hence will see us once again on a concrete basis and things generally will revert to their normal position.
 "The elimin atiOn of those powers of Central Europe whose policy of conquest and exploitation has kept the world in feverish excitement for years has opened up to the American citizen various problems. Countries that have hitherto looked to Europe for supplies are overrunning our mar kets and paying for their purchases in gold. The great majority of Ali- erican exports today is new com merce and naturally great portion of our imports will be new business. Alaska and especially southeastern Alaska is compelled to share in this new era of prosperity, and we can share if we will throw aside pessi- mism and inject into our policy a spirit of hustle" Capital today Is begging for good investments and if there is a place on the continent in which paying investments abound it is Alaska.
 "Our great fishing banks are ne glected excepting of course the sal mon and halibut industry. The cod fish industry if properly undertaken would cause the worlds markets to look up to us; the clam and crab can. ming business could easily be devel. oped into great industry. and if we can get any encouragement from Sec. retary Lane during his forthcoming visit relative to utilizing the billions
