doing it with genuine pleasure. They are enthhs-

Not only has he been forced to fight contest Tor
his seat against man who was AFRAID TO run
against him at the special election little more
than year ago, but he, in session of Congress
secured the passage of five measures FOR ALASKA
through both houses of Congress
In his speech at Ketchkan Delegate Grigsby said
that he had not found it necessary to belong 10
the majority party Congress get legislation Tor

who have been at Washington that Alaskas Dele
gate to Congress is popular and his ability has been
recognized both sides OF the chambers OF the

ceived recognition that is always accorded merit
and ability
No man in Alaska is better qualified than Dele

AnglO-SaxOn Unity
Cincinnati Enauirer.l


The British Ambassador in an earnest speech be-
fore the Southern Newspaper Publishers Association
stressed the Importance of Anglo-Saxon unity. He
appealed in this behalf to the newspaper men of
the two countries the mightest agency for the
development and maintenance of good will and un
derstanding between the United States and the EN-
pire.
He declared with feeling that there never was a
time when greater need existed for complete coopera
ton and understanding between the two countries
than at present In his belief and this is the belief
OF students and thinkers who view the possibilities
of the future with anxiety unity and mutual I'M
derstanding between the Engshsp speaking races are
OF greater Importance than anything else at the
present time, because without understanding there
can be friendship, and without friendship there
can be cooperation, and such understanding and
cooperation necessary to the welfare civiza-
ton and humanity. He pointed out the folly of
antagonsm, il-considered rivalry between the peo-
Piles of the empire and of America. He called atten-
ton to the fact that have the great political
and socio- economic problems pressing solution
problems wide the world and deep as the
human heart" Only through anding and
fullest cooperation can large areas of the world be
saved from lapse from civilization semi civilization
which is threatened by the economic chaos in which
they find themselves.
No armistice will permanently stay the Red ad-
vance. The conflict between the white and yellow
races inevitably will day. The British
Empire and America must stand together, or the
wreck of social order will be the doom of the flu
ture. The Ambassador truly said:
Rich and precious is heritage, but
hold only life our possession
1t belongs to children to theirs
and to the unnumbered generations the
future If you and we stand firm together
the heritage will be SAFE even though the
world we have known should crumble
around us; but if the unspeakable horror
of conflict should arise between us the her-
tage would be destroyed"
Those timely words should not say, a
grave and timely warning? The preservation of this
common heritage, the securing of ordered freedom
and human liberty certainly should be regarded as
the noblest duty of Americans and Englishmen alike

LONDON TINES ON AMERICA

The day before the Fourth of July this year the
London Times perhaps the most powerful OF all
English newspapers, issued American edition. 1t
devoted to the task of educating the people of
Great Britain the subject of the United States
of America. 1t contained articles American his
tory and all phases of American actvities-ndus-
trial, social and political The writers included
some of the famous and best informed Ameri-
and English writer's and publicists. There were
60 pages in each issue of the edition.
The attitude of the Times toward America and
the of the American Edition is well forth
in the leading editorial to appear in the en-
titled THE Fourth of July" The Times said:
The first words of the American Con-
stitution are I'VE, the People of the United
States" Tomorrow 'the people of the Unit
ed States celebrate the 144th anniversary
of the signing OF their Declaration of In
dependence, and there is more in this re-
joicing than the commemoration of formal
act of separation. There is in it a national
consciousness. and justifiably proud con-
sciousness, of all that is meant by the de-
velopment of the original Thirteen States

out upon two oceans As long ago 1880,

lea is become new primary planet in the
system of the world, which, while it takes
its course in its orbit, must have

How Progress Is Blocked

One of the anomalies of present-day politics is
the savage arraignment of President Wilson his
party by the Republicans for being too radical and
the complaint by all of radical parties that he

liberals may be thought to be in bad way, but
such is not always the

pacifists and jngoes, by pro-Germans and pro-
