SINISTER SYMPTOMS
There is room for a great deal of
bought concerning the condition of
atriotism in Great Britain as indi
ated by Lloyd-George in his recent
peech to the House of Commons,
he chancellor of the exchequer points
ut that there are three roles Eng
and may p'ay in the present war.
the may maintain command of the
eas, she may keep up an army on
continental scale, she may finance
he war. The first and third of these
’.loyd-George says his country stands
eady to do and is doing, but the
naintenanee of an army will be car
ded on only within limits. Great
3ritain does not intend to let her
nales go to the continent to be kill
’d by the Germans. Let the French
ind the Russians bear the sacrifice
m lives.
Hitherto this has not been the sen
timent of the members of the British
government in their public utteran
ces. Nothing of the sort has come
from the war minister, Lord Kitchen
er, who constantly has been urging
the men of the nation to enlist and
has been making every endeavor to
get troops to the continent.—Detroit
Free Press.
Hereafter when Delegate Wicker
sham wants a drink at the Tanana
club of Fairbanks it will be sent up
from the Buffet saloon, duly licensed
to that end.

are battling near Ploken and a gen
eral engagement may result as both

centration is going on without a
hitch.

tillery duel with the Austrians. The
result of the big gun battle is not
announced here by the war office.

of the government here are greatly
worried as a result of the report from
Liverpool to the effect that the Amer
ican ship Nebraskan has been tor
pedoed. The situation between, the'
United States and Germany is grave
and many fear that as a result of
the new complications that a peaceful
.settlement of the differences cannot
be made and that the United States
will be drawn into the conflict in Eu
rope in order to protect its right to
sail the seas.
Bryan Is 8ilent.
In spite of every effort on the part
of newspaper reporters to secure a
statement from Secretary of State W.
J. Bryan as to what effect the tor
pedoing of the American ship Nebras
kan would have on the diploma*ic dif
ferences between the United States
and Germany, the secretary remained
silent and refused to see the report
ers. The vagueness of the informa
tion from Captain Greene may result
in no official action being taken.
