Loudon, Feb. 10.—Great Britain
was pre-eminent in th© air at the
close of the war when the British
air tore© wag the largest in the
| world, according t° a report made
uublie today. It fought on more
fronts than the air servic^ of any
other nation and its successes were
prouortionately greater, it is said.
In August, 111 14, thet British na
val and military air services togeth
er mustered only 2S5 officers and
1853 men of other ranks, in No*
member, lylS, there wore thirty
rhousand officers and 2 64,000 men.
At the outbreak of the war Great
Britain had lt>6 airplanes and 45
seaplanes, together with Beven »ir*
([«shiL>y, while at the dose of the
war she had 21,000 airplanes, 1300
seapianes and 103 airships. Be*

STEM CLEAR OF
SIBERIA, SAYS
JUNEAU MAN
The following letter to the Juneau'
Empire says.'t
Why all this "cou" talk of a rush i
to Siberia next Spring is more than
I can figure out. Your article re
ferring to the* occupation of Siberia
by the Allied troops of Eastern Si
beria is a sure frunk to those poor
sucitcrs who join any organization
for prospecting, developing or in
vestitf; capital in a foreign land. I
know whereof I speak Bince I have
roamed the Siberian coast from
pefropovlosk, which is the capital
of Kamchatka, to Koluchin Bay and
that constitutes a far longer coast
line than our Alaskan coast. It
la the only port Of entry for all ves
sels. There is absolutely no drift
wood on Its shores, and no coal to
be had unless imported. The coun
try If? rich in minerals, furs and fish
Lare-e tramp steamers visit Anadir
Bay every Summer, and put up im
mense quantities of a delicious red
salmon, which are not found on this
coast. Ther© are only two known
placer deposits and they are good
ones. On account of the snow not
disappearing till late in July and
sometimes in August, it leaves a
very short season for the transient,
prospector. Oo the propeeting par
ties "kid1" themselves that they
can invade a foreign land and Bet up
camji in their own ways and cus
toms, trepass on the century-old
hunting and trapping grounds of
• he Natives, breeds and halfbreeds
of Siberia (an citizens of Russia)
without causing strife and discon
tent among them? Most all the
able Dodied Natives along the coast
have served in American whaling
vesse.s since 1870. They speak fair
ly eood English, and are a bad,
troublesome bunch, entirely differ
ent from our hospitable Alaskan Na
tives. I have lived amongst them
for three months at a time, and I
have made a good many trips along
the coast. The Native# there ar©
aided and abetted by the wily Cos
sack officials, who are stationed a
lonir the'coast.
Well, here's hoping that all able
bodied Alaskans stay In their owu
oack yard and develop it. It
needs it. Let that 20.000. Get-Rich
Quick- Waiiingfords rush to Siberia,
flnd I bet Mr. Editor, a home made
Kabler, that in the Fall of 1919
there will l>e 19.999 damphools coin*
back and say, "I told you so.'' Tho
remaining euy will go "nuts" and
take to the hills.

Tlio. City of Seattle arrived In I
Dor' this morning at 1:30 o'clock
with six passengers and, approximate'
lr 100 tons of freight. She will
sail f-om this port at 5o'clock via
Sitka and will pass up Juneau on
the south bound trip calling in at
Ketchikan.
A Vata Mavern, representing the
West Coast Grocery company In Ta
coma, H. L. Morris, with the Schill
li g's Best line of toffee, teas and
spices, and Frank Cox, representing
thp Walton H. Moore dry goods com
pany of San Francisco were all
passengers on the City of Seattle en
route to Sitka today. These three
well known knights of the grip were
not permitted to come up town whilai
tneir ship was in port but were all
compelled- to transact their business
over the phone with their several
patrons here. "Van" called up the
Alaskan office and from th0 cheery
tones of Iris voice he is in good
health and spirits.
Tony Tnopea, who hss teen in
Unc'e Sam's fighting corps, having
gone from Alaska to the service, re
turned on this morning's boat from
the south. He will probably re
sume his dmttep with the White Pass

from his work on the line.

HOW MUCH DID THAT
LAST COLD COST YOU?
Figure it up in dollars and cents and see what you lost by
not having a botton of Ballard's Hon hound Cough Syrup at
hand. Had you take that remedy according to the plain printed
directions as soon as the cold is contracted you should not lose
a single day's time.
