The necessity of more stringent enforce
ment of the laws regarding the welfare of the
country was again shown in Milwaukee the other
day when Frank Kvaciciki, aged co. was sent to
the house of correction for three years for at
tempting to sell stolen tools. When arrested an
l. w. w. membership card was found on him and
in his room suitcase containing inammable litera-
ture, revolver fashght and pair of brass
knuckles With this start before he had cast his
first vote, there ISM much question but what he
was convinced that the world owed him living
without working for it and that it was his duty
to collect it by force whenever occasion might de-
mand. The trend of present conditions is direct
ty toward period Of lawless rule by a class not
capable of approaching toerable conditions and
far less capable OF altering them for the better.
What the country needs just now is officials not
afraid to enforce the coultry's laws even at the
risk of offending the labor vote and Others who
seek to be known as the laboring kind and in
reality are Won't Workers of the most danger

W. In Roumania. NV


Soon after the entrance Of the
United States in the war the successes
Of the Central Powers in Roumania
had reduced that country to most
tragic condition and in the summer
of 1917, the American Red Cross des-
patched it's first Roumanian relief
contingent. Two hospitals were at
once taken over and operated by the
Red Cross, canteen for the starving
refugees established and food and
clothing distributed over large area.
Transportation was one of the
toughest problems with which the Red
Cross workers in Roumania had to
deal. Here is seen an oxcart used
by the Red Cross to carry its relief
supplies up into the mountains.

FRIDAY, OCT. 81, 1919

Dr. Roberts, of WaukeSha and Grace Lusk
notirety, gets year in the workhouse in Milwau-
kee as beated result of his indiscretions with
that daring example of Womanhood, which be-
came public knowledge during her trial for the
murder of his wife 1t is to be hoped that the district
attorney of Milwaukee county won't carry his lit
tie joketoo far in the matter of ascertaining
whether every man and woman who register at
the hotels there carry marriage certificates with
them otherwise, CONSERVATION might reign and a
lot of apparently good regulations wther. What
the DR.. ought to be sentenced for was his lack
of taste in falling for woman possessing so little
of woman's charm as the martyred heroine of
Milwaukee and Chicago daily papers, from the
day she killed Mrs. Roberts to the day she landed
inside the walls of Waupun where she belonged.
There are not many people but who believe in
the observance of the old commandment as one of
best safeguards of society, homes, husbands, and
wives and children. Belief in it though has never
kept great many men and women from breaking
it generally to their later sorrow as in this
Neither is this ore lonesome attempt by law going
to elevate the morality of the state very much and
we reckon men and women will continue to sin
along those lines just they have since the time
of Eve and as long one natural trait predomin-
ates over all others. We do hope though, that our
brothers who fall hereafter will not be confronted
in court with many such Cleopatras as Grace
Lusk the 81 year old defed maiden who thought
it no crime to kill the wife of the man she de-
manded as her own and who in the trial that fol-
lowed related with utmost cOmposure vile story
of a connection that lasted for couple of years
as no decent woman could, and which would have
been hard for many women making no pretense
whatever to respectfully to tell.

HENRY M'PHEE
 HAS HAD. SOME
 EXCITING TIMES

Henry McPhee, a former employe of the Alaskan Engineering commits sion at Nenana; writing to his mother. Mrs. George Harrington, for the first time tells of the part he has taken in the great war.
 His letter is written from Jean- deliz, France, and he says that the soldiers are now allowed to tell their folks and friends of the places they have been at during the recent fighting.
 Since February 20, 1918, Henry has been at the front; the first time his regiment was on the Alsace- Lorraine front, and he says that they stayed there for five months straight. On July 23, the regiment was sent to Chateau Thierry, where he says, the fun really started, and the Germans found out the fighting qualities of the Americans, and where the tide of battle turned in favor of the Allies, who followed it up until the fall of the German army
 From the Chateau Therry front, his regiment with many others was sent to take the Argonne forest This forest, he says, was supposed to be the hardest forest to take in France, and the French and English gave the Americans five months to take it in. To the utter astonish- ment of the British and French, the forest was taken and occupied by the Americans on the twelfth day after the advance against the enemy commenced; and, he says, that a month and half after the fal of the forest of Argonne, the armsitice was signed, the Germans having had enough of American warfare.
 His regiment (23rd Engineers) was sent from the Argonne forest to Verdun, where they have been engaged in repairing the roads and bridges so that the French and Americans may be able to march to Metz. At the time his letter was written, Henry's regiment was quartered in a village which had not suffered so very much from she'll fire. Most of the buildings, he says, were in- tact; the only serious damage done was to the church, which had it's front wall blown down by she'll fire. He says he is feeling very fit and is very anxious to come to Alaska again, but does not know when he will get his discharge.
