the gkrman way
A new York Times writer who has carefully followed the Anglo-French
German reparations controversy through all its months of anxious debating,
after pointing out that both countries are agreed that Germany must pay
all that It is able to pay, continues:
Both countries have been raising the question latterly of Germany's
"will to pay." Germans have. In the past, been great on the power of will
All through the war they maintained that victory would come to them if
they only willed It hard enough. At present, howover, Germany's will to
meet her obligations to France seems to be grievously lacking. The will
which Germany express either openly or tacitly on that point is a will not
to pay. Yet when sufficient pressure is applied the necessary will seems to
be forthcoming. The German government sent a note to Paris stating that
It was wholly unable to pay what was due on August IS In payment of
French nationals: but only two days after the French government had be
gun to take measures in reprisal Germany found she had the money, after
all. and said that she would begin yesterday with a large installment. This
long series of yielding, when forced to yield, does not leave German policy
standing In a very creditable light, but it does give one more hint to the
Trench that they have rightly comprehended German psychology and learn
ed how to stimulate the exercise of Germany's will power.
There is a side to this German payment question which France thorough
ly understands, but which other countries either do not see or will not see.
When Germany wanted money from France or from Belgium, she got it.
Every occupied town paid a line: every trivial infraction of the occupation
rules was the occasion for a fine. Germany demanded the money and the
French had to pay. Today, notwlthntanding all the assertions of Gennar
Inability to pay. notwithstanding the depreciated mark and notwithstanding
any and every other German excuse for not paying. France knows, as Eng
land must know, taat Germans by the thousands are traveling In Europe,
and In mcnv instances traveling in ease and luxury. These things every
traveler knows. Just as he knows that in Germany he is charged one price
for another and much lower. Should Germany apply at home the methods
used In France and Belgium, they would not have to bleed twice for Ger
many.—Dawson News.
A XKW HIGH POINT
Aklavick 1« soon to be a new point on the world map, and distinguish
ed as the most northerly point In the postofflce service of the Dominion of
Canada. That is almost tantamount to saying that Aklavick will be the
•Northern-most postofflce on this continent, for, although Greenland runs
northward more than a dozen degrees from the 65th degree of north lati
tude near which Aklavick is situated. It is doubtful if the Danish Govern
ment ha* ever established regular postal service with any point in Green
land north of there.
As to regular service, that which Aklavick will get is likely to be reg
ular but of such infrequeney that the metropolitans in outlying residential
sections of cities, who often protest against the "isolation" of only one mail
delivery a day. should think on Aklavick. while waiting for tomorrow. Two
mails will leave Aklavick by steamer during the season of open water, and
one by dog team during the long winter. If dogs could go routes as the
crow flies, a 300-mile run southwestward to .Dawson City would put th»
Aklavick mail on a faster footing to the outside world. But there are nal
ural obstacles intervening, and the r.nnouncement that the sledge run will
be "the longest and most lonely postal route on the continent." probabl)
means that a more open but much longer route will be taken down to the
northern terminus of the railroad which the Canadians have built North as
a branch of the Canadian Pacific. This is £11 in a part of a new and wonder
lul world which works while the old world talks of reversions, repudiations
and cataclysms.
Establishing a postofflce at Aklavick will not bring a boom. There has
for some years been a trading post at the delta where the Mackenzie River
falls into Mackenzie Bay and Beaufort Sea. an arm of the Arctic Ocean. The
trade of the post has begn flourishing enough, and its correspondence in
creasing at a rate to justify the naming of the post "Aklavick" and the
sending of the dies with which Its outgoing mails will hereafter be orna
mented. together with Canadian postage stamps and postal regulations. The
post Is now "Aklavick." and a new point on the world's postofflce map, but
it will not build a new Bhack until growing trade demands one, which may
be soon. The incident has interest as a sign of a continuing progress in a
land where "the men who do things" never think of Palm Beach or Long j
Leach ir winter.—St. Loulg Globe.
HEAVY CARIBOU RUN
KEPORTKO INTERIOR
There was a general movement of
Falrbanksans. toward Cleary summit
on Sunday, the attraction being the
countless number of caribou which
have Invaded the district. It is esti
mated that fully one hundred per-j
sobs jtopped at Walter Preston's;
Summit roadhouse for lunch during
the day and fully one hundred car
casses were brought to to«ro. toaie
vt the autos having as mw M f^ur (
caribou strapped to the running
boards. Caribou meat is being offer
ed for sate at the summit for five
cents a pound.
Caribou were so numerous in the
vicinity of OInes last week, that Mo
torman Marsh of the railroad gas
car, was compelled to slow down a
number of times to avoid running
over the animals and hunters relate
that a bunch of caribou stampeded
down the road near the Summit on
Sunday, nearly up setting several au
los which were parsed there. It is
also reported that the road was
blocked for nearly an hour at Dol

London.—Transatlantic gambling,
which went out of existence during
tlie war, when the gamblers were
unable to get accommodations on the
liners, has broken out again in full
strength this year.
Judging from the accounts, there
are more skillful operators on the
ocean this summer than ever before,
and steamship companies, while rot
denying the presence of shurperB,
say all they can do Is to warn pas
sengers against the folly of playing
cards with persons tliey do not
know.
The biggest killing which bear*
any mark of authenticity Is said to
huve been $30,000 lost as a result
of a steady bridge session in which
a New Yorker was the victim, but
there have been plenty of others not
quite so profitable for the profes
sionals.
Last week seven passengers who
landed at S.juthhamptoi. on Tuesday
sailed for New York Wednesday and
it is understood that the price of a
dual passage was more than made on
the way over. One American re
cently entered a smoking-room poker
game and dropped f500 In twenty
minutes.

HEART CONVENTION IS AC

"Tlie Mooseheart convention was

order of Moose and during the six
days about SO.000 persons attended."
said Sigurd Wallstedt today, who re
turned to Juneau last week on the
Princess Alice after attending the
convention as a delegate from the
iocal lodge.
"President Harding and Secretary
of Labor Davis were held In Wash
ington owing to the serious labor
situation," said Mr. Wallstedt, "and
were unable to attend the conven
tion.
"During my three weeks stay at
Mooseheart the thermometer regis
tered from 97 to 103 In the shade,
the wannest weather experienced In
the state of Illinois in years.
"I received the honor of District
Supervisor, District Deputy of the
Supreme Dictator and Deputy Grand
Regent for Alaska and the Yukon
and .will make a visit to all lodges
in Alaska in the near future. 1 will
make my headquarters In Juneau.
"I am unable to express fully and
do justice to the many wonderful
things to be seen and fully appreciat

two reels of moving pictures with
me to be shown in Juneau and other
cities in Alaska for the purpose of
bringing: home to the people our
wonderful child service to the world.
"I am glad to be home with my
family and in the glorious climate of
Alaska."
TEACHERS HAVE CHANCE
FOR I'ERMAXEXT SERVICE
FN PHILIPPINE SCHOOLS
Manila, Sept. 21.—American teach
ers coining to the Philippine Islands
should regard their positions as per
manent instead of temporary, in the
opinion of Vice-Governor Eugene A.
Gilmore. ex-ofllcio secretary of pub
lic instruction, expressed in an ad
dress to thirty American teachers
who arrived recently.
"No matter what the political fu
ture of the Philippines will be. the
Filipinos will need educational ex
perta, and American teachers, there
fore, have an excellent opportunity
to render service here and make
their calling a career," said Vice
Governor CJIImore. "They ought to
come with the feeling that they can
make a place for themselves, not to
take a peep Into the Orient and then
go back home.
"1 wish also to bring out the fact
that American teachers coming to
the islands must be prepared to ad
just themselves to their environment
and give their work a fair trial in
stead of becoming dissatisfied at the
outset. They can not all work In Ma
nila and must, therefore, go to the
provinces where their services are
presslngly needed. The department
of public instruction and the bureau
of education will do their utmost to
make their living conditions as good
as possible, but they must not expect
them to be Il.-.e home. As soon as the
financial condition of the government
Improves, liberal promotions and ad
vances will he made to Americans
and Filipinos alike."

ROCHESTER, HOME OF MAYO,
ENVOYS GREAT PROSPERITY
Rochester, Minn., city made fam
ous by the Mayo clinic, Is one of
the most prosperous communities in
the country, according to Jack
O'Malley, well known old-timer at
the Falrbank's district, who return
ed to the Interior last week froirt
a heulth trip to the celebrated
hospital-city, People flock to Roch
ester, lie says, from all corners of
the globe and money circulates very
freely there.
The cost of living, if oner patron
izes the hotels and cafes, Is quite
high and business, apparently, is
good all the time, for there are no
closed seasons at the Mayo clinic.
There Is a stream of humanity com
ing and going a'l the time and the
rush for consultation Is such that
one almost has to fight for 'place.
Officers are kept constantly on duty
to keep the waiting crowds In
order.
As most Alaskans are already
aware1, the Mayos are very liberal
in their treatment of patients. They
do not ask too many questions
when one goes there for treatment
and the only payment Insisted upon
Is the moderate charge for hospital
care, ranging in price according to
room. Aid is not refused if one Is
| without funds and the poor and the
rich receive the same treatment as
far as the doctors are concerned.
There are no streetcars In Roch-j
ester, all of the moving about be
ing by auto. And there are under
ground passages for conveying
patients to and from the operating
rooms. A large part of the city is
owned by the Mayo corporation.
During the time that Mr. O'Malley
was there, the doctors were making
a study of a case of sleeping sick
ness. the patient being a boy who
had been brought to Rochester from
a town some distance away. He
would sleep for several days at a
time and was kept alive during
the spells by means of forced feed
ing. At the time Mr. O'Malley left,
they were about to try a serum dis
covered by one of the doctors and
of which great thing were expect
ed.—Dawson News.
