"America For Americans"
RETRIBUTION AT HAND
It is only a few days ago that
Attorney General Gregory warned
all the pro-Germans to "Obey the
law and keep j;our mouth shut," or
t'.at he would get them.
■Most of the common people heed
ed that warning but others failed
Xi> take It seriously. Now they are
going to be attended tp. In other
words, retribution is at hand.
Among the recalcitrants who recal
citrated were Seuator LaFoIlette
aud Haywood, both I. W. \V. lead
ers. They both defied a fair warn
ing given by a representative of a
large majority of Americans. La
FoIlette took advantage of his po
sition to abuse the President aoid
disregarded all laws of decency. By
his absurd, pro-German traitorous
tactics in the senate he jeopardized
the very life of our giverument. But
according to dispatch.es the time
has come when he shall either have
to keep his mouth shut and b« in
terned or made to pay the Price
exacted from the common traitor of
tae country. Congress is evidently
determined to attend to his case.
And why wouldn't it? L<a Follette
is no better than the rankest of
1. W. W. and the latter have been
attended to. There is no room for
4istluctlou.—Ketchikan Miner.
WAR AND FREE SPEECH
At a time when congress and the
president of the United States have
voiced the national purine, there
■ire many citizen^ who continue to
igitate and debate and oppose
his purpose, and yviio regard inter
ereuee with such activity as us in

3tter the president has answered
•Uh patience and dignity, and in
ach » maimer as to impress the
reat body of the people with the
:?ctitude of his position, whether
r not Mr. Eastman sees the point.
"I think," wrote the president,

ON* CHARGE OF MURDER
Jamee Galvin, charged with the
murder of a negro roadhouse keep
er at Wells, near Haines last win
ter, says the Juaeau Empire, Satur
day entered a plea of guilty to
manslaughter, which was accept
able to the District Attorney's of
flee and this afternoon was sen
tenced at McNeil's Island.
Galvin was an ex-oOldier and stat
ed to tho court that he had been
drinking heavily that day and the
evening before. He had been told
by the woman that he would have
to leave because lie had an argu
ment with one of the guests in the
bouse. He asked for mone^ for ex
penses for a few days alter he left,
which was refused by the husband
of the woman. She promised that
she would get him some and he
took • gun and went hunting.
GaJviu said that he went a little
way iroin the house and that he
had a bottle with, lnm from which
he was drinking heavily. He stated
that he stopped and was drinking
and didt not remember anything else
until he was under arrest at Kluk
wan. He said that he did not re
member anything about the shoot
ing or of having fired a shot at all.
Judge Jennings asked the man
several questions and he stated
that he was from Ohio and 35
yarsa of age. Judgo Jennings, in
passing sentence on Galvin stated
that he could not take into con
sideration the fact that Galvin was
drunk because if such a precedent
was set every man could plead
drunkenness und escape punishment.
ATUX COl'XTRY WILL
HAVE GOOD YEAR
The Atlin country is having one
of the best seasons of the country
according- to people who have come
out from that district this fall.
Ralph Peder&eu, editor of the Skag
*vay Alaskan, who wag in Juneau
yesterday, said the Atliu output this
year will exceed that of any recent
year in the camp's history. This
confirms the information brought
from that district by F. F. W.
Lowle, general agent of the Can
adian Pacific, who returned last
week from Atlin.
T. A. Daultou and the other Se
attle men who are operating a big
hydraulic plant on Ruby Creek are
having regular cleanups, and will
produce a large sum this year, and
the indications are now that tne"
company will soon have all of its
investment out, and be on velvet.
The French syndicate, at the
head of which is Henry Maluin, op
erating on Otter Cre«k, is in pay,
also, as are several other large
concerns. The individual operators
on Spruce Creek and elsewhere are
doing well.—Juneau Empire.
MOVIE SHOWS HOLDING CAMP
Washington, Oct. 12.—A moving
picture of the construction of a
cantonment, from the basic blue
lirints to the arrival of troops,
wag shown at the War College to
Secretary Baker aud members of
the Geueral Staff. The picture
was prepared at the expense of th
Board of Commerce of Little Rock.
Ark., and shows the progress of the
work at Camp Pike, near that city.
Tnis picture iv> the first movie
shown of the complete process of
making an Army training camp and
will be given general circulation.
The making of the cantonment at
Camo Pike covered 52 days. During
that time approximately 1,200 build
ings were erected. Some 4,000'
carloads of material were used. At
one stage of the operations three
buildings were put up simultaneous
ly. within a space of 38 minutes.

no time to debate whether we are
