that the total number of allied forces charg- ed with controlling the pIcbiscites to be held in certain German areas were cut down 25 per cent by the non participation of the United States
 The two bits of information do not match. The provision for the pIcbiscitcs was inserted in the peace treaty to give certain peoples. inhabitants of provinces forcibIy seized and annexed by Germany, m opportunity to say whether or not the, desire to rcioim the mother country. In or der that the pcbiscitcS should be perfectly cd by German threats or coercion, forces of France, England, Italy and the United States were to occupy the areas wherein they were held In no other way could the people concerned be guaranteed freedom of vote
 This is purpose not foreign to Ameri- can principles or ideals. There is no good reason why our forces should not have aidt ed in the work. Having entered the war that IIunism might not rule the world, it was and is distinctly part of our duty to see that every trace of it iS eradicatcd and the wrongs it perpetratcd righted insofar as we are able. Should all the allied pow CTS assume the attitude held by some Amer jeans and which has forced America into a humiIiating position, it would be but a few years until Germany is as strong as cvcr the inevitable result of which would be another world war. It would be inter- csting to hear Senator IIarding'S eXplana- ton of the failure of America to participate m the pIcbiscite police work in Germany.

ROOSEVELT AND THE CRISIS
(NeW York Globe. )

The death of Colonel Roosevelt gave opportunity for the first of a flood of ap- praisaIs and memorials which will be long in running dry, and these could not help arousing speculation both as to where the colonel would stand were he alive today and as to the relation between his activities and the present American mood.
 A sentence from a speech delivered in 1899, when the Philippine controversy was raging, might stand as a comment on the event of twenty-four hours back:
 The timid man, the lazy man, the
 man who distrusts his country, the
 OverciviIized man who has lost the
 great fighting virtues, the ignorant
 man of dull mind whose soul is incap-
 able of feeling the mighty lift that
 thrills ''stern men with empires in
 their brains all these, of course,
 shrink from seeing the nation under
 take it's new duties.
 A. Globe reader calls attention to a re- mark more particularly applicable to the preSent-Or rather recent-crlSlS. In 1910 Roosevelt declared in one of his European speeches:
 Finally, it would be a master
 stroke if those great powers honestly
 bent on peace would form a league of
 peace, not only to keep peace among
 themselves but to prevent, by force if
 necessary its being broken by others.
 One cannot conclude from these eX- tracts that Roosevelt would have been won over to sympathy with the treaty Mir. Will son brot back from Paris, but his reasons for opposition, one feels, would not have been those lately current at Washington. He at least would have disOWned that ap- peal to timidity, that dread of the use of force even in a just cause, that argument to dulness and ignorance which is the stock in trade among certain-though not all of the contemporary opponents of paro- chialism. He might have evoked our self fishness; he would not have called upon our meannesS.
 Roosevelt is charged with being essen tially an imperialist He believed that a race or nation with message, such as he thot his race and nation had, ought to de liver it if need be at the cannons mouth And just now the cannon's mouth philos- Ophy finds few takers, here or elsewhere But another form of his creed was that people who know they are right ought to have the courage of their convictions; they ought to act as though they were right. He would not have been found consorting with those who now declare emphatically thar America is so superlatively right that she must save her rightness unimpaired, in the midst of a torn and tortured world by doing nothing.

UNCLE SAM-FURRIER

So prevalent has become the idea of "UucIc San" as person who, at the pres cut age and time, is forever and ctcmally di,gorgmg himself of money in answer to various and sundry appeals ranging from giving. Italy another loan to enable her to keep D'Annuuzio in Plume to lending France d few million honest American dol- lars to keep the German wolf from her door. that ii i> pleasant to discover a trans action in which the benevolent old gentle man has made a million or two to salt away to care for him in his old age when his ncphcW~ and nicccs may be so occupied with new fads that they won't have no time to look after his wants And it does not dctract from that pleasure to know that Alaska is the source of the revenue
 Most of the world knows about many of Uncle Sam, activities, as a railroad builder, as the embarrassed operator of a nations railway systems, as a Shipbuildcr, Elnight-crrant to distressed nations, prime mover in innumcrabIe causes. a friend of the Armcnians but trusted by the TurkS-but few have any knowledge of Uncle Sam, The Fulricr. While he dab bIcS d bit in foxes. seals are his main forte. Here he reignS Supreme-seaI king of the world with market already created and an increasing source of supply that makes him the object of envy by less fortunate in dividualS
 The seal census of 1918 gave the num- II. O,;l ;llf T-,I, ell animals of all ages. This was after the close of the killing season. The census taken at corresponding date for 1919 gave the size of the herd as 52426O animals Uncle Sans employees in 1918 killed 34, 8S3 and in 1919 the number of skins taken up to August 10 was 25,381 More should have been secured but experienced work men could not be secured so they were left over for another year.
 Reporting on the industry, the depart ment of commerce says: Ut is estimated that when the entire take of sealslIns for the calendar year 1918 shall have been dressed, dyed, machined, and sold, the net revenue to the government, based upon the proceeds obtained at the sale Sept 10, l9l9 will be in excess of $2,45O,OO0 To this should be added an approximate net rev enue of $l23OO0 for the sale of fox skins It is safe to say that. when the proceeds of the sales of bones, oil and other bv-pro- ducts are taken into account, the net rev enue for the products of the calendar year 1918 will reach a sum in excess of $2 2600,- GOO. This would more than pay all expenses Of every nature connected with the admln- iStration of the PribiIoff Islands, the Alas kan salmon fisheries, and the care of the minor fur-bearing animals of Alaska for period of l2 years. :"
 Nineteen eighteen was the first year of the resumption of the commercial taking of seal skins. The proceeds for the operation of 1919 should equal if not exceed those of 1918 as a substantially higher price was obtained for skins sold during the former year than those sold in 1918 The fur busi- ness of Uncle $ am is one of the smallest branches of his Alaskan establishment at the present time. Nor is 1t the only one which shows a balance on the credit side of the ledger
