Via
Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Ry.
WHY
By buying a through ticket you save from $10.00 to
$15.00 as against buying to Seattle and re-buying
there.
By buying over the C., M. & St. P. Ry. you are as
sured the comfort that comes from riding behind an
electric locomotive — the most powerful in all the
world—and that personal attention which is a fea
ture of “Milwaukee” service.

consult your nearest Steamship Agent.

PLAN FOR
CENSORING
ALL MAIL
WASHINGTON, D. C., October 8.
President Wilson and Postmaster-Gen-!
eral Burleson now hu^e under consid
eration a mail censorship plan whose
object will be to eliminate chances oi
information being slipped out of thus
country to Germany and her allies.
Uncle Sam is the only belligerent in
the world who exercises absolutely no
censorship on mail matter.
There is a censorship on cables. The j
only order on mail up-to-date has been
one forbidding the attempted mailing
of matter to Germany and her Allies.
The greatest censorship bureau in
! the world is the British. Not only
| have stores of useful information been
| obtained by censoring letters, but im
mense numbers of tips to Germany
have thereby been killed.
Practically all mail from this coun
try to the six neutrals of Europe is
censored by the British and French
officials.
Mail for Asia is censored by the
British and Japanese.
The British and French censor all
mails for Africa.
But there are ships that ply direct
ly between Havana and Spain and be
tween South American ports and j
Spain. The chances for a leak into |
Germany via Spain are, therefore,!
many.
Cuba’s help with mail coming to hei
' ports may be relied upon.
Censorship of South American mail
would entail the employment of a big
bureau of clerks. There would have
to be people thoroughly conversant
j with European languages, and, espe
cially, with Spanish and Portuguese.
! There would have to be experts who
could detect code messages in seem -
I ingly simple personal and family let
ters.
Whether the government is prepared
to make so drastic a move at the pres
ent time is unknown. It all depends
upon the plans the President is now
' considering.

returning to Valdez on that steamer
with his wife who has been on a visit
