\ GRAVE SITUATION
Little doubt is entertained in
Washington as to what repre
st'nations Germany will make to
this omi.try if it Id proved conclu
sively that the steamer Sussex was
sunk by one of its submarines. And
enough proof has already be<.n af
forded to establish th'> popular con
victioii that such is the case. Ger
many is expected to disavow the act
and lromise reparation and punish
ment of the offending officer.
Cut how will that be .received iu
this cor.ntrv? Despite Gormany's
oft n repeated protestations of rig t
intentions, 'he sinking of the Lusl
tania das been followed by tfie tor
pedoing of the Galright, the Arabia,
the- Pen elite, the Patria, the An
cona and now, apparently, the Sus
sex. Germiu \ Is going right ahead
with its submarine campagu of
death nod -Instruction against non
rombaunts, reica.rtll<rss of whether
the shirs sunk without warning be
long »c an inemy nation or a neu
tral nation, whether they are armed
cr unarmed, or whether they are
lreisht carriers or passenger steam
el's Dutch, Danish, Swedish or Nor
wegian ships—it makes no differ
ence to the comaiandcT of the Gor
man submarine.
Thuj far, "-hat have Germany's
assurances of regard for the rights
of neutral nations and tho world
wide principles of humanity
anioui.ted to? Hot: can Germany
e.\,>evt this c unity to givecreditto
any disavowi' makes in respect
tc the Sussex cr place dependence
upon any further premises it may
make lev the future?
The situation has indeed become
a grave one.
SPEAKING OF WIND
\\ hen It comes to wiad, the Val
dC2 Miner muu wants it understood
j that his town is second to nowhere.
He says: "Junoau papers are mak
| ing much of a Taku wind which
I blew a brick clean through a candy
i store. We can go them on« better
and show them a Valdez glacier
; wind that would have blown that
'candy store through the bTick."
Why no' come to Skagway and
! plav in the cooling zephyrs amid
the lofty mountainous kings which
dazzle in the rays of okl King
I Sol?
Resolutions passed by the Alas
ka Bureau of Commerce have been
sent forward to congress. These
rcolutions call the attention of
congress to the fact that wagon
roat's are essential to the develop
ment of Alaska. By wagon roads
the adjacent territory will be set
tled up is the opinion of the
framirs of the resolutions.
They have also sent forward
resolutions to the effect that Al
aska is entitled to full measure of
Territorial government. The docu
ment asks that the administration
of ail national resources in Alaska,
I other than those of scientific re
i eareh, be placed iu a board resi
Beware of Ointments for
Catarrh that Contain Mercury
as mercury will surely destroy the sense
of smell and completely derange the
whole system when entering It through
the mucous surfaces. Such articles should
never be used cxcept on prescriptions
from reputable physicians, as the damage
they will do Is ten fold to the good you
can possibly derive from them. Hall's
Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.
Cheney & Co., Toledo. O., contains no
mercury, and Is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous sur
faces of the system. In buying Hall's
Catarrh Cure be sure you get the genu
ine. It is taken Internally and made In
Toledo. Ohio, by F. J. Cheney & Co. Tes
timonials free.
Sold by Druggists. Price 75c per bottle.
