II the proposal should meet with the

il is believed that it would give the
conference a loOphole out of the deli

submitted to them for approval. Once
the principle of investigation and ar
bitration' of breaIs between Ameri-
can republics is agreed to be, it is
claimed, it will be an effective force
toward reducing the competition in
ornaments and practically eliminate
the possibility Of involving these coun-
tries in war.

fully made copies of the priceless rel
les and hid the originals.
When the s,ldiers made their seiz-
ures they found not gold and jewels,
but brass and glass. Connected with
this was an exceedingly ingenious plan
for smuggling these originals outside
Of Russia.
Seizures Comparatively Small.
The total value of the treasures
seized by the government was only
S5.G00,000. The actual value of the
treasures in one great monastery alone
was estimated before the war Mt ca
O0O, 900 rubles (S32, J00,000). In the
opinion of many the churchmen made
bad tactical blunder when they re-
sisted the seizure and gave their enc
mics an opportunity. of which they
have taken full advantage, to stir up
the poor by saying that the priests
withheld aid from the starving.
Some of the leading clergy refused
to obey the patriarch's instructions.
The archbishop of Nizhninovgorod.
who surrendered all he had, said:
who am !, who the Master babe
me if had two coats to give one to
the needy, that l should withhold any
thing from the hungry"
The patriarch and the clergy main
tain that while doing their religious
duty they are not influenced by coun
ter-revolutionary aims. This is gen
orally true. The sympathies of the
higher Russian clergy are undOubted
~ against Bolshevism but they lons
ago abandoned ideas of encouraging
the forcible overthrow of the govern
ment realizing that they were futile.
Tikhon. most of the time since hi:

outside of Moscow where the atmo
spheric conditions are more agreeable
than in a prison.
A few weeks ago he was removed
from there, presumably TO the Lou
blank prison in the center of Moscow
for final examination before the public
trial.

Santiago, April 2O.-The principles
laid down by William J. Bryan while
secretary of state under President
Wilson through negotiation of treaties
agreeing 10 the investigation and ar
bitration OF causes threatening HOSTILE
ties appear TO have n good chance OF
being incorporated into the results
of the Fifth Pan-American Confer
ence. The details of the amendment
offered by DIR. Gondra of Paraguay
are under consideration and reported
to be meeting with favor. 1t is con-
sidered probable that the amendment
will be acceptable TO the majority OF
the members of the ornaments COM
mittee.
In effect the Gondra amendment
follows the principles of arbitration
and investigation worked out in the
Bryan treaties which provides for a
truce lasting one year between ma
tons threatening to declare war
while commission studied the al
legged cause or causes of the dispute.
A further truce Of one year was TO
follow the report of the commission.
The Bryan treaties provided for
four members. two selected by each OF
the nations threatening war. these
four members selecting a fifth. The
'Gondra amendment makes no pro-
vision for the election of the pro-
posed arbitration committee.

Warsaw. April 20.-The trial Of the
patriarch Tikhon, head Of tn, Russian
Greek Church, and his chief colleagues,
opened IN Moscow April IL.
In TIE opinion Of almost everybody It
will have but one end-the conviction
Of virtually all the accused and the
execution q death sentence upon the
patriarch.
Tikhon Is charged with having com
runicated with and blessed the leaders
of the white forces during the revo-
iutionary fighting. with communicat-
;ng with white" Russians living
abroad and with bishops Of the Greek
church now in exile.
He is charged also with organizing
resistance 10 the DEGREES Of the gov
eminent, particularly with the one
ordering the seizure of superfluouS
church treasures for famine relief.
This last is the vital charge, al
though the government, following the
plan adopted at the trial Of the social
revolutionists, will use the present pro-
ceedings for the purpose OF making
political propaganda against the
church all over the land.
Defied the Reds.
When, in February, 1922, the gov
eminent ordered the appropriation OF
the church treasures, Tikhon. through
the church council, advised the clergy
not 10 cooperate offering not only
physical but moral resistance. As a
consequence numerous churchmen were
arrested and archbishops, bishops and
priests were tried and shot or SEN
ienced to long Imprisonment. Last
May the first great trial OF church
folk was held in Moscow when clergy
closely associated with Tikhon and
church people, including Brusilova
dail-hter-in-law of the famous general
were convicted and some were shot.
II was on account of his testimony
Mt this trial that Tikhon and his chic
colleague. the metropolitan Archbishop
of Moscow, were arrested. Among tn
other trials that followed the most no
table was that of Benjamin. the me
tropolitan archbishop of Petrograd
who was shot last July.
The bitterness of the authorities ha
been increased by the fact that the re
distance of the Oh has. been N
Invariably successful. They have save
most of the church treasures even a

THE ALASKA FISHERMAN
FREEING THE WAR PRISONERS
 WHAT THEN?
(NeW York Post)

It is shocking to liberal citizens to think that after five years fifty three men imprisoned under the es- pionage act are still in jail. Some are literally rotting there, for two have just been medically certified to be in advanced stage of tuberculosis. A third, accused of malingering by the authorities, recently suggested that they were mistaken by dying. Charles w. Morse and F. H. Nobbe had no difficulty in getting out of Federal prison on the plea of i'll health. Yet we have the best of evi- dence that many of these war pris- oners should never have been put there in the first place. Senator Pep per months ago carefully examined the cases of twenty-eight. He re- commended to the President an un- conditional pardon, giving as one req son the fact that "they were convict ed when public sentiment was such that it really prevened a fair trial"

 MT. Stubbs reports that in addition to oil seepages there are deposits of bituminous and anthracite coal in this vast region, which covers approxi- mately 50,00O square miles.
 "I wrote to the agriculture de- partment, asking if there was any bonus on specimens of fish with gig Zards and was informed that the spe- cies were unknown. There is lake of crystal clearness o1, the old Kal- makosky- y-Nushagak trail, where it is possible to see 40 feet below the surface.

MRS. DANIEL JOSEPH

Mrs. Joseph died May 3rd and is survived by her husband Dan, and several children. She was a woman in the middle years of life, and a credit to the Indian race. It is only a little while ago that we talked with her and learned how anxious she was that her children should go to school Mrs. McAvoy who taught her child ren in the government school in Doug las has told us many times what a comfort it was to know Mrs. Joseph and what fine children she had. It is great loss to this entire com n,unity that she should be taken.
 Dr. Pigg who attended her said that everything was done that could be done, but that the attack of heart disease and pneumonia was too much for her in her weakened condition
 We hope that her family will take comfort in remembering her splendid example, and that the sorrowing children will try and live "for our mothers sake"

 OF THE PRESBYTERY
Metlakatla Pastor Elected for Next
 Year-Lay Pastors Licensed

Rev Edward Marsden, native, pas tor of the Metlakatla Presbyterian Church, was elected Moderator of the Presbytery of Alaska for the' next year, at the session of the Presby- tery in April. Officers elected for the triennium were: Rev. David Waggoner of Juneau, stated clerk, and Rev. R. A. Buchanan of Sitka, permanent clerk. Members of the Presbytery elected to the Home Mis- sions committee, which has charge of the general work, and organization of the Presbytery, were: Dr. c. c. Bruce, chairman; Rev. David Wag' goner, Rev. G. J. Beck, missionary in this district, and M. B. Summers, eld CT of the local church. The various committees for the church work were filled for the next three years.
 Rev. Marsden was also elected as Commissioner from this Presbytery to the General Assembly, to meet at Indianapolis, Ind, May IS next. Rev. Waggoner was elected alternate. Hon. w. G. Thomas, was elected as Elder Commissioner to the Assembly and Samuel Davis, elder of the church at Kassan, was elected alternate.
 Elder J. s. Brown of Rydaburg and MT. Davis, natives, were exam ined before the Presbytery at the session today and licensed as local evangelists to work in the Presbytery It is the plan to, as rapidly as pos sible, educate and train native men for caring for their own churches. Reports were made on courses oe study for the native lay pastors and there was considerable discussion on the subject.

We strongly resent this inference that the decent men therein should be stig- matized by this man elected from the Third and now honored by the Governor. Common drunks are slap ped into jail. Since a legislator is immune during the session, at least after the session treat him as other buns are treated.

The quickest cooking oats In the world

Now your grocer has Quaker
Oats in two styles. One the kind
you have always known-the other
Is Quick Quaker.
Quick Quaker cooks in from ) ia
S minutes. And it cooks to perfec-
ton. So it is almost like q ready
cooked dish.
No other oat flakes on the market
cook anywhere near so quickly.
The two styles are identical in
quality and favor. Both are faxed
from the finest grains only-just the
rich, plump, favory oats. A bushel
of choice oats yields but ten pounds
OF these delicious flakes.
But in Quick Quaker the oats are
cut before talking. They arc rolled
very thin and partly cooked. So the
fakes are smaller and tlinner-that
is all. And those small, thin fakes
cook quickly.
Ask for Quick Quaker if you want
this style. Your grocer has both.
But always get Quaker Oats for
their delightful favor.
