EDITORIAL PAGE
A W ORLD W AR INDEED
Only the oceans make any break
in tie belt of war territory,
W*uch encircles the earth. Canada
Btreichta across this continent. Si
beria and Russia continue the war
zone to tho boundaries of Germany
and Austria-Hungary. Germany
touches France and Belgium along
a frontier of more than 200 miles.
France extends to the Atlaantic.
Germany is separted from the
British Isles only by the North Sea.
The United Kingdom carries th
war belt to the western capes of
Ireland.
So the globe is encircled by coun
tries which are covered by the flags
of nations at war. It is the belt in
which civilization has built many of
its greatest monuments. It is a
part of the earth which has long
been foremost In art and science,
litera'uie and music. It is the
home of nations aud races which
stand In the front ranks of pro
gress
And that, to many observers of
the convulsion well described by
Mr. Asquith, speaking a® the head
of the British government, as "an
immeasurable international catas
trophe," is the most disheartening
feature of the world war.
Current knowledge of tlie war
of 1914 may be somewhat less
than we would wish, but the nest
generation will have much more
than it wants.
M. CaOlaux uow has every op
portunity to show M. Bernstem
whether he always sends his wife
to do the family's fighting.
On better acquaintance, London
ers may find those one-pound notes
as justly popular as five-spots are
over here.
If you iuslst on pronouncing
"entente" in a highly Parisian
manner, don't forget to serve the
"triple" French fried.
Europe may as well understand
that it will have to settle down
and be good before this time next
year or lo6e our tourist trade.
As Uie logical cnadidate for the
colonelcy of a regiment of Frenc
rough, riders, prominent mention is
litrrebv tendered M. Caillaux.
At first. Lord Churchill inti
mates, contact mines cannot be re
lied upon to distinguish one ensign
from another.
It might be *s well to relieve
the German reservist who manages
that Long Island wireless station
before ha is led into temptation.
Now that China has proclaimed
her neutrality, Zanzibar cannot
much longer delay declaring just
where she stands.
Emperor William announces that
Germany will fight to the bitter end
—and there la no doubt it will be
all of that
Oh, well. We can stand it if
those black and white checkered
suits don't get any farther than
the slit trousers did.
With South America actually
begging for imports, it does seem
a pity that North America has neg
lected to provide ships.
Does Mr. Carnegie mean to say
It's all right to declare war on any
nation that declines to come into a
peace canference?
EDWARD LIXFORS MISSING
A. X. Welander, of 1115 Adeline
street, Oakland, California, writes
for information concerning tlie
whereabouts of Edward JLiudfors,
wbo left Oakland for Alaska in May
1911. When last heard from, De
cember, 1912, he was at Dawson.
He then intended to go prospecting
in Yukon Territory.
FOX FARM COMPANY TO
ERECT LARGE Bl'lLDiXti
Probably the largest house to be
built oa any fox farm in Alaska
will bo eretced on the Vahlez trail,
a short distance from town, before
the snow flies. The structure is to
be put up by the Alaska Fox oc
Fur Farms company, which is clear
ing the land at the present time.
The contract price has not been
made public, but it is said to be a
very substantial sum, as the buildin
is to be 50 feet long by 2S feet
wide, and two stories in height.
Other contracts, for the building of
corrals, pens aud other outhouses,
will be let within the near future.
The work of clearing the ground
is progressing rapidly, and it is
probablo that the company will be
occupying the premises long before
the end ot the year.—Fairbanks

with psoriasis for nearly two years. Por

were affccted mostly with it.
It appeared In scaly form,
breaking out in very small
dota and gradually grew
larger an J white scales formed
when about the size of an
ordinary match-head, Tho
looks of it was horrible, which
made It very unpleasant for
me. ltcnea U UUIO at uurca.
" I tried several remedies, but tho trouble
seemed to grow worso Instead of better, and
I tried several treatments which cured mo
for a month, but it always broke out again.
One day a friend saw the advertisement of
Cuticura Soap and Ointment In tho paper
and I sent for a sample. They helped me. so
I purchased two more boxes of Cuticura
Ointment and somo Cuticura Soap and
they completely cured me. It took three
months for Cuticura Soap and Ointment
to complete my cure." (Signed) Walter
Mahony, Oct. 22, 1912.
Although the Cuticura Soap and Oint
ment are most successful In tho treatment of
affections of the skin, scalp, hair and hands,
they are also most valuable for everyday uso
In the toilet, bath and nursery, because they
promote and maintain tho health of tho skin
and hair from Infancy to age. Sold every
