Mr. Paul Kjegstad,
Nome, Alaska,
Dear Sir
/ have just received a telegram
from you sent by way of Everett. 1t
should have reached me almost two
weeks ago, but has evidently been de-
layed as a result of relay through
Everett. have tried TO wire reply
but have just been informed by West
ern Union that they don't take mes
sages for Alaska; l am therefore
sending you the information you ask
by letter and trust it will reach you
in time.
There has been no action taken by
Washington Labor relative to endors-
ing any candidate for Office in Alaska
this year nor will there be any taken
Two years ago, few leaders here in
GLIDING former President Marsh and
Myself, sent to Mr. Wickersham a
letter of appreciation for services
rendered the Labor Movement while
at Washington, and presume that it
is probably part of this letter that is
being used and that you refer to.
However, the question of selecting
a fitting representative for your ter
ritory is purely a matter for decision
at the hands of Labor and the citizens
generally of Alaska, and / assure you
that there will be no attempt made
to influence it either way by any part
of Labor here.
\ With kindest wishes, l am
Very truly yours,
w. M. Short

Washington, Dec. S.-A peace

and 1900 officers was decided on
today by the house military sub
committee headed by Represents
tive Anthony, Republican. Kansas,
framing the army reorganization
bill. The number Of combat troops
was fixed ct .250, 900.
The i subcommittee proposal
would leave 1t to the president to
divide the forces into infantry, cav
airy and artillery units at his dis
cretien.
The provision for $4,000 officers,
many more than needed for an
army Uf 100000 men, was framed
In order to. give 1900 to 1000 ex-
tra Is instructors for the national
guard and resrve officers training
corps units. Both the guard and
the training corps would be great
ly enlarged under the committees
plans, as only 800 ofiicers are now
needed az instructors.

Washington, Dec. Slope for the sediment
tomorrow afternoon of the controversy between
the miners, the operators and the government was
expressed in formal statement issued today at the
White house. The statement follows:
1T is hoped that there will be settlement
on Tuesday afternoon of the controversy be-
tween the miners, the operators and the gov
, ernment through the acceptance by the miners
of the plan for definite settlement proposed
by the president, which proposal was sub
mitted to acting President Lewis of the miners,
by Attorney General Palmer Saturday night"
The utmost secrecy still surrounded the pres
ident's proposal and Secretary Tumulty and other
officials refused to supplement the White house
statements. It was learned, however, that the pro-
posal made tothe miners was from the president hin-
self and was in the form Of a memorandum written,
by him. 1t

change Result Failure
to Ratify Treaty.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.
Especial to The Argus.)

Washington, Dec. S.-Germany's
reluctance to sign the protocol
which the allies have submitted is
officially declared to be due to the
failure of the United States to ra.i-
fy tho peace treaty. Frank L. Polk,
head of the American peace mis-
sion in Paris. has endeavored to
erase from the minds of the Ger
man commissioners the notion that
the American senate intends to do
anything to aid Germany in avoid
ing her obligations. Nevertheless
In executive quarters here there Is
an unmistakable evidence Of re-
gret that Germany should have had
the opportunity to get any comfort
out Of the delay in the ratification
Of the peace treaty. And while this
only confirms the statements made
by President Wilson on his recent
trip that the Germans were hoping
American would associate herself
from her allies, there are other

Big Four win Succeed Big Five in
Dividing Up the Fruits Of
Victory.

Paris, Dec. 6.-Tn0 supreme
council this morning took the un-
finished business Of the peace con-
ference in an effort to dispose Of
the more urgent questions. In its
purpose also was to decide upon
the reference of the other pending
questions to the proper quarters
for decision after the big five"
becomes the big four" as it is ex-
pected the supreme council, with
the four principal allied powers
represented. will continue to meet
after the American delegates leave
tomorrow.
As far as the Americans are con-
cerned the supreme council will
cease to exist after the signing Of
the Hungarian peace treaty. It is
as yet not determined who will
sign that document for the United
States, although in all probability
IT will be Ambassador Wallace.
Most Of the unfinished business
will thereafter be referred to the
various governments and settled
through the regular diplomatic
channels.
Among the matters to be thus re-
ferred will be the administration
Of western Thrace, although the
ultimate fate Of that province may
be decided by the supreme council
Of four.
Distribute German Ships.
The reparations commission will
insert q number Of questions. in
cluding the distribution Of the Ger
man merchant shipping.
The revision Of the treaty be-
tween Belgium and Holland and
the, Adriatic and Baltic questions
probably will be put in the class
Of those to be referred direct to
the governments.
The question Of the continuance
| Of the interallied war council Is
still undecided. The Americans are
understood to be unfavorable to its
continuation and the French and
| the British are said to be not yet in
complete accord as to the details
under which the organization may
be continued.
The question Of negotiations with
Turkey is another one as yet unde-
termined. Great Britain still de-
sires to transfer the negotiations to
London, but France has not yet
given her consent.
Among other questions remain
ing to be disposed Of IL the dispo-
sition of the German shipping that
was left In the hands Of Brazil and
Uruguay, the former having been
| operated by the French and the
latter by the Americans. It is un-
derstood the American delegates
favor the allotment Of this tonnage
to Brazil and Uruguay. respective.
ly.

London, Dec. S.-Andrew Bonal
Law. the government spokesman
declared in the house Of commons
today that there was little reason
to doubt that the communication
proceeding between tho allied ant
associated powers and Germany
with reference. to the immediat,
ratification OF the peace treat,
