HELPING GERMAN
 MOTHERS SUBJECT
 FOR CONTROVERSY

LONDON, March 13.-The action of the Women's International League in sending 5O0,000 rubber nipples to Germany to save German babies and it's efforts to get money to send another half million has been the subject of considerable controversy in England The organization is the British section of the International Committee of Women for Permanent Peace.
 Shipment of the nipples was sug- gested by a correspondent in Ger many. He quoted the head of a children's hospital to the effect that, if something was not done to help German babies, by 1883 there would be no German soldiers fit to fight. Commenting on this statement the Evening Standard says:
 There are crowds of people in this country, who while loving chil- dren, want to know if the first and most imperative duty of Great Bri- tain is to raise up a German army TOT l5oo. lueTe dIe Hdliy III the areas upon which German children's fathers dropped bombs killing Eng fish children, and still many more in France and Belgium. whose child hood came face to face with these German children's fathers who would tell where the charitable thought of Great Britain as regards children might first be focused"

ONLY SURVIVOR
 OF SOPHIA NOW
 IS IDENTIFIED
Enq|ish Setter Which Ar rived Aux Bay and Was Adopted Proves to Be
 Sophia Survivor.

The dog at Aux Bay, which had been thought to be a survivor of the Princess Sophia, has been posi- lively identified as the thoroughbred English setter which belonged to Capt. James Alexander who with his wife. was a victim of the disaster Capt. Alexander's setter, a white dog with liver-colored spots, was one of five dogs checked on the Princess Sophia by l.. H. Johnson, Canadian Pacific agent at Skagway according to word received by F. F w. Lowle, general agent for the com pany.
 The dog arrived in Tee HarbOr two days after the wreck, covered with oil; nearly starved and pos sessed with an unconquerable fear of water. He later found his way to the Aux Bay cannery which he adopted as his home.
 Martin Hoist of Juneau, who first brought the story of the dog from Aux Bay, said that it is so afraid of water that when it is forced to cross the creek at Aux Bay on a foot bridge, it will crawl across, with it's head lowered between it's fore paws, and look neither to left nor right.
 MT. Lowle has communicated with Capt Alexander's administrators re garding the dog.

RIPPING RHYMES

coal, and to buy the needed pills?
Feeling well, men do not think, do
not keep that day in view. when
their health is on the blink, when
they have the itch or flu; and they
blow in all they make, blow 1t with
their hearts serene, for glad rags
and angel cake, blazing gems and
gasoline. Each one thinks he is
immune, sickness will not come his
way, and he blows the round
doubloon in his large and princely
way. But some morning there's a
call for the doctor and the nurse;
there's congestion of his gall, and
he's hourly growing worse. And
he lies around in bye, just weak
and futile wreck, with poultice
on hts head, and a plaster on his
neck. And his wife has pawned
her duds, and she's washing by
the day. In cloud Of steam and
suds. just to keep the wolf away.
And he hates himself SO bad! And

GERMAN TRlckERY AGAIN.

S7HE refusal of German troops to
evacuate the Riga district and the
transfer of the insurgents into the
Russia army is but another form Of
German trickery which the Allies will
have to deal with. Lettish troops are
holding their positions but are being
hard pressed and need all of the assist
ance that the Allies can give them. If
the terms of the peace treaty signed
in Paris mean anything. the Allies will
of necessity be called upon to enforce
them, which means that a large num-
Der of troops will likely be landed in
the Baltic provinces to administer
disastrous defeat to the Hun. The
Esthonians are rallying to the as
sistance of the Let's and the battle
front is gradually widening.
1t is not likely that the trouble in
tho Baltic provinces will spread into
q war of any serious proportions for
the Allies have control of the seas and
are making effective very rigid block
ade. There will have to be use of
Allied troops no doubt and the Let's
and Esthonians will have to be sup
piled with munitions of war in large
quantities. The Allies are able to
give them a large quantity of these
without serious trouble.
The combination of the Germans and
the Russians is the feature OF the
conflicting situation that need cause
the most concern. The Germans ap-
pear to be anxious to avoid all Of the
more rigid provisions Of the peace
terms and will use any subterfuge to
escape punishment for inaugurating
the world war. There seems to have
been no serious effort on the part of
Berlin to demobilize and withdraw
German troops in the Baltic and the
government has given its assistance to
joint operations with the Russians, all
Of which proves that Germany is as
determined as ever to cause trouble In
the Baltic provinces and other sections
In the mean time General Denikine's
army is delivering powerful blows
against the Red government troops Of
Russia and the Lenine regime appears
20 be about to tumble. He is almost
within striking distance of Petrograd
The capture of that city will probably
see the collapse of the Bolshevik gov
eminent. The battle line of the Reds
has been broken on a wide front and
Russia appears to be on the verge OF
liberation from the reign of terror II
has been under. Once that is accom-
plished the Allies and royal Russians
will be in position to deal so effec-
lively with the dishonest German gov
eminent which has been backing the
Baltic disturbance as to rid that sec.
tion of the German menace once ant
for all time.

BASEBALL PROSPERITY.

h0 EARLY a quarter of million peo
I'M pie paid nearly three quarters of
million dollars to see the worlds series
played to decide the championship
baseball team between the two leading
clubs of the National and American
Leagues, the Cincinnati Reds and the
Chicago White Sox, respectively. This
would lead one to believe baseball is
still prosperous.
The total attendance for the series
was 236,92S and the total receipts were
s722,414. These figures give to the ma
tional game q big business status such
as it has never before enjoyed, and
that too In the face Of allegations of it's
waning interest. Baseball at least
comes out of the war with new
growth of popularity and under con-
ditions demonstrating that its patrons
are not suffering seriously from the
high cost of living.
To what further lengths OF develop
ment is the game to go, under judiclous
management? The return of the cham
pionship. after many years, to one of
the pioneer clubs is a good augury as
confirming the essentially national
character of the sport. And certainly
the vast property interests of baseball,

OF the law a satirical attack ON law
enforcement. 1t Is the kind of litera-
ture that seeks to undermine the very
foundations Of the government Of this
Republic. Those responsible for its
appearance-and 1t Is doubtful II the
allied union members knew It would
appear in the bulletin until they re-
ceived their respective copies-should
be severely censured.
Labor stands opposed to the organi-
cation and the use of a state constabu-
willing to give labor due allowance for
It's views and has no criticism II OBJ
jections are properly presented. Penn
sylvania happens to be one state in
the Union that has such a constabu-
lary-the mounted police. That state
considered it advisable to enact a law
to create such a body. 1t has been
effectively used. Idaho has state
constabulary without mounted police,
but it has state police sworn to en-
force the law and the same unjust
criticism that is directed toward the
Pennsylvania organization may next be
turned to the state police department
of this state.
A slur Is cast on sworn officers of
Pennsylvania in the literature in
question by calling them the Penn
sylvania Cossacks." But the rhymester
does not stop there. He devotes five
verses to abuse.
"A-down the steel-town streets they go
Past "hunkie" hutches, row on row;
Then back again and up and down,
Patrolling all the quald town;
The mounted thugs-the state police
Sworn officers Of law and peace"
| Thus does the rhymester open his
attack. What stronger appeal could
be made to those inclined to disre-
gard all law and order; who would
overturn our government and substi-
tute a more radical form?
with swinging club they clang along
And keep steel eyes upon the throng;
Each rides upon his charging steed,
To guard the gates of town greed.
Each with a sawed-off gatling gun,
To use when "hunkies" fail to run"
1t is such attacks as these that tend
to stir up dissension and discomfort,
to make labor dissatisfied, to arouse
the worst there is in men. There is
sufficient unrest in the country now
without issuing inflammatory litera-
ture. Labor organizations can serve
their own ends and those Of the coun-
try best by adopting fane and rational
policies and bending their best efforts
to bring about peaceful settlement
