All We Can Do to War
on Human Misery
Since the close of the war
there has been a persistent ef-
fort on the, part Of France to
draw us into a security pact, I"
perhaps along with England.
It would mean an insecurity
pact for us, since we would be
committed to France as an ally
in the event Of an attack on
her.
And since she is now the
most powerful nation in
Eruope. with the most powerful
army, and, consequently has
aroused powerful resentments,
= this security pact" might very
easily draw us. into a war we
cannot afford just now.
We have all we can do to

BURN SLOUGHS NOW so AS
TO PROTECT WILD GAME

A local sportsman who is interested
in the conservation of wild game, re-
ports that the American Game Pro-
tective League calls attention to the
destruction of game, especially up
land game, also ducks, by burning Of
sloughs late in the spring.
The present dry season in Mime
sofa brings to mind that the sloughs
could be burned off now, without any
hardship to game. Fires during the
Matching season always destroy the
eggs both of game birds and nom
game birds, and it is actually known
that wild birds are sometimes des-
troyed, as they are unwilling to leave
their nests when the eggs are about
to hatch.
This applies particularly to the pro-.
lection of pheasants1 and quail, and
sometimes ducks suffer because of
the burning Of slough lands and brush
lands too late in the season.-Ely-
sian Enterprise.

LOW RAILROAD TRACKS MILE 56 TO bE RAISED
 ABOVE HIGH WATER

The seasons work of the steam shovel crew, Tom Winn, foreman, on the northern end of the Alaska Railroad has been finished and the crew have moved to new location. The crew, numbering about Is men, and the steam shovel arrived in Anchorage dur ing the week and Thursday morn ing departed for Mile 56, on the southern end to do some more work.
 Work in this section will include the raising of the railroad tracks above the high water mark. Dur ing the last few years the track has been submerged in water at certain periods of the year and now it is sought to obviate this difficulty.
 The track on the northern section, beyond Mt. Mckinley is now said to be the best of the en- tire system as the railroad crew have been working there turnout the summer and have put the tracks on more solid founda- tion.
 The summer has been one of the most active in the Alaska Railroads history since it's con- struction. There are still about 400 men in the field on the bridge crew, steamshovel crews, section crew and other crews. The sec tion crews are being reduced gradually but it is thought that the other crews will be kept work ing as long as weather conditions permit.

To say that free trade with the United States is
tremendous advantage to the Philippines is merely
to call attention to something entirely obvious
that it scarcely to warrant the official mention
Mr.. Divis gave it. We do not think anyone would

its products dutyfree into this country to compete
with those of the American dairyInan. But what
Mr. Davis did not make plain was that this arrange

concerned is not felictous at all when it is consid-
cred from the point of view of hundreds of thous.
ands of American farmers who have been forced into
disastrous competition with the cheap labor of the
Philippines by that arrangement. In the northwest

The question for congress to answer, when the
matter of independence is next considered is wheth
it is important for the native Filipino to
joy the privilege of free trade than it is for the
American farmer to enjoy the protection which is
inevitably bring him. Mr. Davis says he would like

such development would be to make it loom

convention August 1919, they will

First to receive the endorsement
of his district, the Fifth, for this
honor, was Oscar Y. Youngdahl, of
Minneapolis, past commander of
his district and present state Lee

latter capacity, Mr.. Youngdahl led
his state to a ten-year record mem
bership total of 28,557.
The Tenth was the next district
to endorse candidate in the per-
son of it's discreet membership di-
rector, DR.. Gus. r. Anderson, OF
Cambridge, whom Legionaires OF
the Tenth doubly honored by elect

for the coming year.
AS Ninth district commander, C.
j. Wittbocker, of Fergus Falls had
so merited the confidence of his
posts during the past year that at

placed upon him the stamp of their
approval as worthy timber for the
office of state Legion commander.

Mr. Olson has not given up hope and when his organi
