NOBODY LOVES HUNS

Berlin, April 2O.-Hugo Haase, for

now leader of the Socialist minority
in an article in the Freiheit on Ger
many's relations with other peoples
does not share the general pessimism
prevalent with regard to the coming
peace negotiations. Haase reminds
his readers that Germany is loved no
where in the world, not even central
countries and that nowhere is there
any belief in a real change OF Ger
many's attitude.
The writer sharply criticises the
German policy and protests against
her threats regarding Poland and the
Saar region which he urges will serve
no purpose but will incense the en-
tente. He also denounces Germanys
failure to publish diplomatic docu-
ments concerning the critical months
before the outbreak of the war as con-
firming the existence of sympathy
with the spirit of the old regime. The
article concludes by demanding that
national court try those accused Of be-
ing guilty of starting the war

OF OIL LAND MEASURE

The following dispatch gives some
additional information upon the oil
land leasing bill for Alaska: B.
Under the agreement reached by
the house and senate conferrees, the
secretary of the interior would have
authority to grant prospecting permits
for land, outside of naval reserves,
Ito an applicant for $40 acres, located
within ten miles of oil or gas fields;
or 1850 acres beyond that district. I.
Upon discovery OF oil the prospec-
tor would be permitted to obtain a
lease upon one-fourth of this land,
with preferential right to lease the
remaining unpatented lands embraced
within the limits Of his permit, In
such case the prospector would give
the government royalty of not less
than 20 per cent. Prior to obtaining
a lease prospectors would be required
to pay royalty of 20 per cent. The
lease will be for twenty years, at
rental of 81 per acre"

CRUESOME
ON RUBY TRAIL
OF MISSlyCMAN

Perhaps never in the annals of the
Northland has a more gruesome tale
been told than the one concerning the
finding of the body of E. M. Haugen
on the trail between Long creek and
the North Fork of the lnnoko river.
The news of the finding of the body
was received in recent letter from
the lower river.
Haugen and Vincent Kaucheck,
mariners, were on their way to Ruby
from Cripple creek, which place they
left on December 9Th last. This was
during the extreme cold spell in the
country adjacent to Ruby. In making
the trip from Cripple the men in some
manner became lost and were COM
PEELED to "siwash" it for couple of
nights. Kaucheck's feet had become
frozen and he struck out ahead OF
Haugen to find a cabin or some other
refuge. That was the last seen or
Haugen until during the middle OF
January, when his remains were
found. Kaucheck was later picked VI
by a party of miners and brought to
Long City and later sent to Fort Glib
bon.
On hearing of the condition of Hau-
gen searching party at once set out
and instituted vigorous search for
the missing man. Owing to the ex-
IRENE cold it was foregone conclu-
sion that he had persisted, as his food
supply was low and bedding scarce.
The search was continued for many
days and the efforts of the party were
rewarded by coming across both the
remains of the man and that of his
faithful dog, which had remained at
his side even in death. Instead of the
frozen body the party found nothing
but the skeleton of the man, scarce
thirty pounds in weight and that
badly dismembered. The dog, gaunt
and thin and on the verge of starva-
ton, had devoured the corpse of his
master to sustain life.
Mortified, the searching party gath
cred up what remained of Haugsen
and brought it to Long, where it was
given the last rites of the Northerner.
The deceased, before his death, had
worked all summer for Strandberg, at
Flat, and had received no pay for his
services. ssdl ss4s
