GERMANY CANNOT COME BACK

It is folly to talk about Germany looming back. Let the Germans whisper of vengeance if they please let them prate about accepting the treaty until such time as the Empire recovers let them conspirc among themselves make a scrap of paper of the hateful thing whenever they able to resist. They can not come back and menace the world.
 If, after all of her preparation, after her alliances her splendidly planned campaigns, she could to win? In other words, Germany will again she had when she started the five years age. coming back" and wreakng vengeance upon he conquerers?
 Just think what Germany had when she sarte the war! mighty empire, united An alliance with the Turks, domination Austria and Hun gary great navy, big army, with every man in the Empire soldier; great system of intuition making; millions of tons of munitions; airplaneS and submarines and Zeppelins-and merchant marine of magnificent ships. She had outlying coal ing stations ,and far-flung colonies, and forts and Qualifications and projections of every kind And with all of these she could win. How she hope "come back" and conquer?
 The timid souls who afraid of Germany should not discount the progressiveness of the Al lies. They should remember that while Germany is recovering-while she is again growing great the Allied nations will be standing still They will also be growing greater They will make just as much, if not progress in the fifty year. than Germany will make. Hence it is foolish to think of Germany again threatening the world The German Empire is done for, and it need not be fur ther considered military

SWAMP LANDS FOR SOLDIERS

It is all right to talk about draining the swamp Of this country to furnish land for soldiers that it is something to talk about, and something tr have to do is to dig ditch today and hand q good farm to soldier tomorrow, is foolish, sa, the least.
 There a hundred million acres of swamp land in this country and much of it be reclaimed and will be reclaimed. But reclaim of i involves gigantic operations and years of time Man drainage propositions under way, and grad of swamps, retaining an acre or two each year But to suppose that today decree swamp anG to soldiers and tomorrow witness them in the enjoy ment of arable farms, is ridiculous.
 There are several great drainage proposition which the Government alone carry out. That is they involve so much that private parties vii not undertake the work. Several of the States havt themselves undertaken reclamation work of the kind and 1t has always paid in that when the land is re claimed 1t can be sold for enough all cost of reclamation. But we have nothing like system of land reclamation in this country, as yet, and il we desire 10 reward soldiers shall have to do so in some other way than voting them a trac; of swamp.
 In the meantime Alaska is replete in fertile vale and valleys that are already drained and awaitinG soldiers and others who desire locate them o. culturists find sale for their products but the land to grow products is here and yearning to be settled upon and cultivated

 Alaska is extremely fortunate in having J. l. McPherson Washington at the present time actin@ in the capacity of official counsel for her interests He accomplish great deal for the North and is showing his willingness to do at every opportun-
 He is perhaps accomplishing more than any dele facts carry much weight, and his attitude toward the Alaska railroad may be considered to be ly partisan and without bias. He has inter est in departmental affairs which would render him prejudiced in favor of the administration or it's agencies has he any political affiliations in the North to influence and color hls exposition or the facts they exist For these reasons, Congress depend upon what he says to be approximately cor rect.
 Contrast his statements of fact with the tions made several weeks ago by Judge Wickersham The latter published tables purporting to prove that the construction of the Alaska railroad had already cost more than $141,0OO per main line intimatine that the completed road would show higher con struction than that. MT. McPherson who has political fences to build keep in repair, pre- sents figures to the Senate when prove the pleted cost of construction with additional approp rations amounting to more than $16,000,000 will not be much more than $73,0o0 per mile. Wckersham charged mismanagement, waste and incompe tency while MT. McPherson makes absolute serton that the road has been constructed cheaper than any road built in recent years
 The former out to "get even' with someone while the latter is merely trying to aid Alaska There fight does the North incalculable injury. MT. Me PhersOn, having personal ends to is able to accomplish things of material benefit to the Terri tory.

Brains fication a Delegate from Alaska. Loyalty and hon est service must be present and any having these virtues can get anything he wants from the people of Alaska if he but exercises them for the Territory
 MT. McPherson is not Alaskan. But he is doing work that Alaskans have left undone whic' he deserves the confidence and thanks the entirC North. Unoffically he is trying to do that whici our former official representative would have undone

 But conditions have changed. The young fellow who now spends money is doing exactly what his father did except that whereas his father could only spend nickel the youngster can spend dol lar or a hundred Further, whereas the father had to earn his own nickel, the youngster is usually spending the money his father has given him, but that is not the invarabe rule. Many of these boys seen spending money have earned it. But father remembers when he earned only few dollars week. he doesn't realize that he got much he was worth at that time The son is earning hun dred dollars a month or, it may be, even more and he can afford to spend money recklessly than his father spent it.
 The boys of today going to make splendid men, They are getting along fine. They stay out
 later at night; they demand better clothes; they drive automobiles instead of horses. But it is all matter of changed conditions rather than changed boyhood.
