 When people discuss world peace the vision, usually, includes America, England and her posses sions and the continent of Europe. But there is a lot of the world outside these boundaries. However, with the nations included within these territorial Limitations at peace, the tranquility of the rest of when inevitably, white supremacy must justify itself or be submerged by the waves of Asian conquest
 American, English and all statesmen of allied countries might do well to consider suggestion re- gently made by Sir Joseph Ward, formerly Prime Minister for New Zealand, and delegate for that country at the Peace Conference, where he dis tnguished himself by the force of his personality and the breadth of his intellectual grasp of all great questions under consideration.
 It is the belief of this far-seeing statesman that, if it possible for the British Empire and the United States to combine for naval purposes, would be blessing to humanity, because it unquestonably would be the greatest factor in maintaining the peace of the world.
 Whether" said he, such happy and powerful event is within reach of accomplishment in a req answer. It clearly depends the common sense of the great Powers. Such combination, or a- ance, if you like, should prevent the building Of rival navies."
 There are American statesmen who entertain similar view And in view of the late appalling in life and treasure and the omnous gravity of the financial situation at present facing the nations which participated in the war, it would that such an understanding should be welcomed by all Powers as an arrangement which would guarantee the price less boon of peace throughout the world.
 In any event, those looming events" which "cast their shadows before" already make plain that the time will come when the United States and Great Britain must stand united champions white civilization Let it be hoped that they daily may become more closely united in interest and purpose the advancement and perpeuation of Christian ideals and democratic government.

CANNERYMEN GET LOW FREIGHT RATES

Steamship lines operating between Pacific and Atlantic ports have made rate on canned salmon from Seattle to the Atlantic Coast of 50 cents hun dred pounds This is a of $l0 a ton. and weight is taken instead of measurement which means some thing like $6 or $7 a ton tonnage is reckoned in Alaska.
 This low rate should encourage the movement o the canned salmon that is stored in Seattle ware houses. and give very much needed boost to the fisheries industry in Alaska.

{ Fairbanks NeWS-Miner

(FairbankS News -Miner.)
 The departure of Billy Burns for the Greener Fields Over There which journey he set out the other day. was very material loss to this Camp for he was one of the finest type of Alaskans and one of the best of miners a class we cannot afford to lose a member of.
 By's life in this Camp was apace with his fine character He was intensely natural, stood with the working man more than with the employer although hard harder than any of his men, and while Billy would probably have classified himself as "a roughneck miner he also most of the time a bank director representative at the Capital of Alaska a leader in politics and a man whom every body delighted to meet In fact, it was so that it seemed a news matter of unusual importance when it was said that Billy Burns will in on the train tonight His mining game he played to the limit oi his understanding and ability, when he found that there things he did not know about in mining he did not hesitate for a moment but when nearing the age of 40, went Outside and went to school, taking a course in mining advance him self along the lines of his chosen work There were years when his mining ground did not perform ex- cept at loss, but Billy stayed with the job nursed It along, studied it's possibilities the proper way to handle the ground and just when he had it re- turning or about to return commensurate with the labor and time and thought and he had expended upon it, the Greatest Prospector sent out a hurry call for Billy, and he's gone, over the Divide
 In typifying The Old Prospecor and Pioneer the author may well have had Billy Burns in mind when he wrote:
