In all expenses keep in mind the interests of your own compatriots. 2. Never forget that when you buy a foreign article your own country is the poorer. 3. Your money should profit no one but Germans. 4. Never profane German factories by using foreign machinery. 5. Never allow foreign eatables to be served at your table. j>. Write on German paper with a German pen and use German blotting paper. 7. German flour, German fruit and German beer can alone give your body the true German energy. 8. If you do not like German malt coffee, drink coffee from German col onies. 9. Use only German clothes for your dress and German hats for your head. 10. Let not foreign flattery distract you from these precepts and be firmly convinced, whatever others say, that German products are the only ones worthy of citizens of the German Fa therland.?Philadelphia Public Ledger. FOUR AUTOS LEAVE VALDEZ IN ONE DAY VALDEZ. Sept. 19.?Thursday was automobile day. no less than three cars having left Valdoz over the wa gon road. The big "Kelly" truck, owned and operated by E. Nelson, was the first to get away with Fairbanks for Its destination. Two passengers were aboard and a large quantity of fast freight was taken. Mr. Nelson arrived here on the steamer Evans from Juneau, where he has been oper ating the big truck. Buck Hoyt's "red devil" combina tion freight and passenger car was ?ext to get away for Hoyt's head quarters at Gulkana. Buck went to Seattle and returned on the Evans with the Overland car. He expects to do a good passenger business be tween Valdoz and Gulkana. He took a cargo of wet goods. Charley Day sent his Ford machine to Chltina, where he has sold It to Bob Sheldon. Mrs. Miller went as a passenger as far as Ernestine road house. Joe Stanton, the Gulkana mall car rier, also got away Thursday- with a big load of supplies for the roadhous es along the trail. Fred Edmunds, from the Gakona ranch also left town this morning with a load of supplies for the ranch.

Frerizel, u well known character around Tanann for the past eight or ten years, is a prlsonor ot war at Dawson. Tho Count la German by birth, and belongs to the naval reserve of the Fatherland. When the call was made by Germany for the reservists to re turn home ho received notice to go. He had served In tho Gorman army during tho Boxor trouble In China, and had several badges of honor and a (commission as a naval officer. He is very patriotic, and when the news came that the fight was on he could not resist the temptation of showing these to some friends in tho Tanann. As an omployoo of tho United States transport Jacobs he went to Eagle about six weeks ago and told some of his companions why he was going to quit at Eagle. From Eagle he went to Dawson with tho mail carrier. In sonio way tho mall carrier gained the confidence of tho Count, and from what ho heard while at Eaglo conclud ed that he was in the presence of the enemy. This ho reported to the mili tary officers at Dawson. An investi gation was instituted, tho tell-tale badges and commission were revealed and the Count became an honorable prisoner of war, as there wore no i'ans or photographs of tho defenses of Dawson found in his possession nor other evidence that would lead one to believe him to bo a spy. He will doubtless be held a prisoner of war until tho war Is over or Canada^ is taken by tho Germans. Count Frenzel was at Grant creek prospecting a few years ago, and lat er took In the Indian river stampede. He has also engaged in various pur suits at Tanana. He Is an expert violinist and composer, and we may look forward to several variations on "God Save tho King."?Ruby Record Citizen. HOME RULE TO WAIT. In view of the truce between the government and the opposition, it was merely an act of good faith to sus pend for one year the operation of the Irish home rule bill. In the regular order of things it will take its place on the statute books upon the adjourn ment of Parliament and then remain ineffective while the national emer gency forbids the renewal of political controversies. That a satisfactory set tlement of the Ulster question was about to be reached was evident just before the outbreak of war. It is made more than ever certain by Mr. As quith's renewed declaration that "any coercion of Ulster is absolutely un thinkable." The one jarring note in the hour of conciliation was struck by Bonar Law, whose faculty for leading his party into awkward situations never fails him. His ill-timed display of partisan ship and the conduct of his followers in leaving the House served to set in higher relief the attitude of John Red mond in expressing the hope that when the Ulsterites and Nationalists were fighting shoulder to shoulder a new spirit would arise in Ireland to make a real settlement possible. It should be forever reraeipbered to the credit of tho Nationalists that in the grave crisis confronting Great Britain they were among tho first to rally to the defense of the nation and to put all other considerations aside. Tho picture of Bonar Law, on one hand, threatening in time of war that the Unionist party, without conditions, would support Ulster by every means in resisting home rule, and of John Redmond, on the other hand, inviting the Premier to visit Dublin at tho earl iest date and promising to stand be sido him in calling for recruits who would testify to tho desire of Irish men to aid Great Britain, marks the difference between bigoted partisan ship and patriotism. ? New York World. SOCIALISTS IN WAR. Socialists, it seems', show themselves made of the same stuff as other peo ple when it comes to a question of actual warfare affecting their country's interest. The volumes of anti-war pro fessions of the Socialists of Germany, France and Belgium will remain to | their credit even through the begin ning of the conflict finds them sup porting the government and serving In the armies. Belgian Socialists have sworn their strongest allegiance to the Kaiser. Two Socialists are mem bers .of the French cabinet, and surely that was a hasty and unthinking as sassin who struck down Juares at a time when he might have been of the greatest service to his country. Apparently, the only Socialist op position to the present war has been on the part of Keir Hardie and the British Labor party, and that has a subdued note. Patriotism fuses a lot of other isms all well enough in tlmo of peace but of secondary importance when it becomes a question of Nation al defense.?New York World. Bachelors' Apartments.

MEANING OF WAR TO A FINISH Those who hope for peace at at early date will find no .encouragement In the new treaty between Qreat Brltian, Prance and Russia. Binding themselvs not to conclude peace separately, the duration of the conflict Is made to hang not upon the necessities of the weakest but upon tho Interests and will of the strongest mornber of the alliance. Unless all the conclusions of Admir al Mahan are wrong, sea power must ultimately exert a prodigious Influence upon the results of this conflict. Arm ies may exhaust themselves in vain so long as the great navies of the bel ligerantB remain afloat. Taken togeth er, the fleets of Britain and Franco ure three tlmeB as formidable as that of Germany. War 1b a contest also between forces other than those that are In arms. Tho combined wealth of Great Britain and France, exclusive of dependencies, is three times greater than that of Germany. British and French com merce, twice that of Germany, Is pro ceeding, while that of Gormany is paralyzed. No matter what tho ordin ary fortunes of war on land may bo, tho tlmo must come in such a strug gle as this when the Issue will have to bo met at sea. Even a triumphant army cannot sustain a nation Bhut In from its neighbors and impoverished. It has been estimated that at the time of Augustus, Rome ruled a pop ulation of from SO,000,000 to 120,000, 000. The British Empire has a popu lation of 435,000,000. At Its best, the ! yearly revenue of Rome did not equal that of Holland today, $84,000,000. The revenuo of the United Kingdom, ex clusive of dependencies, Is $1,000,000, 000. Tho new treaty of London can have no other meaning than that all the resources of men and monoy of the greatest Empire ever known have been enlisted for tho war and are to be thrown into the balance. It will take time to make them available, but kith a resolute spirit behind them It Is certain that ovontually they will bear heavily upon their adversaries. The prospect Is solemn enough to Im press even those who are at peace, for it foreshadows a strain upon civili zation such as was never before known.?Now York World. AISNE. Tho department of Aisne is on the northeastern French frontier. It has been the scene of bitter lighting dur ing the German retreat?for in this department the Kaiser's troops turn ed upon the pursuing Allies. Area: 2,866 square miles. Population, (1906) 634,495. Tho surface of the department con sists of undulating and well-wooded plains, intersected by numerous val leys, and diversified In the northeast by hilly ground, which forms a part of the mountain system of Ardennes. Among its principal rivers is the Aisne, on the north side of which tho Germans halted after retreating from the vicinity of Paris. Large tracts of the department are under wood. The chief forests are those of Nouvion and St. Michel in the north?Couc>v and St. Gobain in the center, and Villers-Cotterets in the South. The department Is sorved chiefly by tho lines of tho Northern Railroad, but the main line of the Eastern Railway to Strassburg traverses its extreme southern sections. Its military center is Amiens, which is tho headquarters of the Second Army Corps. Other important cities are Chauteu Thierry, St. Quentin and Coucyle-Cha toau. SHOT HEARD AROUND WORLD When the young Slnv of-Bosnian birth fired his deadly shots at the Austrian archduke a bitter hatred of those whom ho regarded as his coun try's oppressors steadied his aim. The double murder accomplished, a sense of his own deathless glory overcame him and he boasted in grandiloquent terms of his cowardly deed. Llttlo did he dream, however, of the consequences of his mad act The nnme of Gavrio Prinzeps Is quite like ly to be forgotten as completely as is that of that great self-advertiser of ancient days, "the aspiring youth who fired the Ephesinn dome" in n vain hope of therby acquiring immortal re nown. Yet it was Prinzeps' hand on the trigger that let loose the dogs of war, the flash of his powder that pre cipitated what promises to become the greatest and most bloody conflict that the world has ever experienced?Daw son News. THINGS ARE MIXED. i Things are getting mixed up these days, and there are some things we can't understand. Take for instance Alaska's delegate to Congress. We could understand what it meant when he was first a Republican, then an In-' dependent, then a Bull Moose, then a Democrat, then a Progressive Demo crat, but now he has us stumped. A contemporary quotes him as declaring that he is not a Democrat, but a "Pro gressive Independent." Now what in the duece 1b that? ?Cordova Alaskan.
