MAKING A GOOD START.

The meeting of the Juneau Commercial Association Thursday evening has had a stimulating enect III Juneau. The good attendance and the spirit or the meeting harbngers of better things Tor Alas ka. The decision of the committee to take up the question of increasing the transportation service be- tween Juneau and other Southeastern Alaskan com munties this year timely, and along line that is most promising. 4eA
 By beginning at this time, there is every reason to believe that communities on Chatham strait and Frederick sound be brought closer to Juneau than before. If the purpose of the Association can be carreid out in this respect and it can if the proper spirit of cooperation is shown, it will work to the mutual advantage fo Juneau and those engaged in the fishing industry in this section. The number oi people engaged in the fishing business in this zion is large and growing larger. The business they would give Juneau if regular transportation serv- ice between the town and them could be maintained would be very important factor in the commercial life of the community. It is the duty of every bus mess in Juneau and every property to give this enterprise his hearty and material support.
 President Goldsten said, when reelected for the remainder of the present term, that Juneau is the aee of better things. He said 1919 ought to be a good year for this city and that it is the duty of every business in the city to take advantage of the opportunity that is afforded make it good year MT Goldstein is right All the business men and property owners of Juneau ought to be members of the Juneau Commercial Association, and all members or the association should attend it's meetings and give all the time needed to the work it has to do
 The motto of every resident of Juneau should be-
 Let us make 1919 Juneau's best year" Nothing that Will count toward that end should be overlooked As The Empire has frequently said there is more pros perly generated from community development than rom any other one thing Community development IS almost always the result of cooperation on the part or those in the community. Therefore let HIS nave cooperation, progress and prosperity

EXPLANATION OF ITALIAN ENTHUSIASM.

Returned Italians who have lived in the United States are given credit for giving Italians an un- derranding of the United States that is not prevail Ing m other countries and the consequent extraord- nary enthusiasm for President Wilson there There are said to be native born citizens in Italy who have lived in the United States than there are in any other country. Most of them are men who had lived long enough in America to accumulate com potency and with it understanding of the bessn Of American institutions They took back to their old homes an understanding of what President Will son has stood for in the war They also took with them to their old homes when they left the United States an experience that has made them leaders of thought and action-particularly action-in the To- calities where they live They learned be optimists and to look forward. They had imbided the spirit that nothing is impossible to him who works with in tegence and spirit They became doers of things enterprisi& in the old home towns, and gloom dis pellers Wey became living examples the young that there's something in the world worth living if one only out to get it. Tn other words they became illustrations of the well known American max i'm that "God helps those who help themselves" pro- vided they about helping themselves in an intel- lgent and orderly way.
 Owen Johnson says the first thing an Italian who returns home with competency earned in America does is to try to instl American ideas in his countrymen and to induce the people to do things in an American way. It is not strange that people of this sort should get hearing when big and strange things occurring Naturally they have had . prolific field for their propaganda during the var.

Our Extraordinary Gold Position.
(New York World.)

There may be good why Great Britain or any other chief European belligerent should con tinue to maintain its close restrictions upon the movement of gold out of the country out of the State banks among the people But they do not apply to the United States
 This is substantially the conclusion of the Fed eral Reserve Board from present study of the banking and god-holding position of the United States. The situation shown is extraordinary.
 Our importations of gold all exports since the war began in 1914 amount to $1071 669, ,000 The Federal Reserve Banks alone hold gold reserves in of $2000 900 900, and the countrys total gold holdings equal to about third of the entire worlds kof gold. And it is further extraor- dnary fact that in spite of all the socaled infa- tions bank credits and Federal Reserve growing out of the war, the Federal Reserve Banks now hold cash reserves of 50 per cent of and deposit liabilities
 The country has meantime shifted from the position of a debtor nation to that of creditor nation in greater command over the foreign exchanges and the international movements of gold than any other tion holds

LONDON, Jan. 1S.-Great Britain is selling its war horses.
 The army has three-quarters of a million mounts, and the first batch was put on the market this month -25,0O0 horses.
 It is impossible to send back to the countries where they were pur- chased the horses which survived the war, and an even distribution through France and Belgium is at. tempted
 The Belgian Government has been provided with 50,0OO horses for recon struction work
 Lots varying in size up to 100 horses are being sent to cities and towns to be sold back to the people to replace those taken for war. Eng land gave up F per cent. of it's working horses for the army.
 May Destroy Them
 The problem in the Eastern thea- ire of war is more acute than in the West. The army there has 100000 horses and mules. u is impossible to ship them home. The country cannot absorb or feed all of them, and many of them will be destroyed and the balance sold.
 Despite the fact that the mule is more economical animal to keep than a horse, and more hardy, the army's greatest difficulty is in selling it's mules. It has 100000 in England,

The MAKING OF
A FAMOUS
MEDICINE
How Lydia E. Pinkhasa's
Vegetable Compound
Is Prepared For
Woman's Use.

A visit to the laboratory where this
successful remedy is made impresses
even the casual looker-on with the reli-
ability, accuracy, skill and cleanliness
which attends the making of this great
medicine for woman's ills.
Over $50, 900 pounds of various herbs
are used annually and all have to be
gathered at the season of the year when
their natural juices and medicinal SUBJ
stances are at their best.
The most successful solvents are used
to extract the medicinal properties from
these herbs.
Every utensil and tank that comes in
contact with the medicine is sterilized
and as final precaution in cleanliness
the medicine is pasteurized and sealed
in sterile bottles.
It is the wonderful combination Of
roots and herbs, together with the
skill and care used in its preparation
which has made this famous medicine
SO successful in the treatment OF
female ills.
The letters from women who have
been restored to health by the use OF
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound which we are continually pub
