Th0 best thanks are due by all Alaska to Colonel Rich
ardson for the successful light he has made to secure a
half million dollars for the wagon roads this year. The
chairman of the road commission went to work early on
this and has fought hard all the year while out in Wash
ington. It seemed to many that the light could never be
successful but the doughty colonel must have been able
to put up a Strong offensive or else he had the standing
and pull as well as the ability. We here in Seward have
overlooked this wagon road appropriation to some extent
because we had our thoughts concentrated on the railroad
monies. We have hardly yet realized the tact that this
appropriation of half a million for roads is an immense
one and about four times greater than anyone expected.
It means the construction of many new roads and the
opening of many districts. Well done. Colonel.

Those European war names today are threatening
but let us hope we shall never meet ITzemysl again.
The Mexican affair is going to end in peace. Carranza
evidently is not a fool, after all. and the Washington ad
ministration has given him every opportunity to pull out
of his queer position, an opportunity which he was mighty
wise to grasp.

In looking at unit .Mexican himu^v ww,. -
ers whether Roosevelt would really have gone to war had
he been president. It is so much more easy to say what
..v. u «urn me circumstances presented themselves. It is
the simplest and safest thing in the world to give advice to
another man how to run his business but the other party
does not always, somt how, accept your teaching. It is one
thing to he responsible and another to have none of the
responsibility. Of course, many people in the country
would like war, even those not financially interested, but
as peace is one of the virtues and war is one of the curses
Woodrow Wilson must tit least be credited with erring,
it he erred in the least, on the side of right. If W ilson
only thought of himself lu* could have made a hero of
himself by smashing Mexico and he need have no personal
feeling of fear, removed tis he would l>e himself from the
scene of strife. The chances are good that if Hughes
had been in the same position the same results would be
recorded.

RUSSIAN WOMAN CORPORAL
IS A BLOODY TIGHTEN
(Special to Gateway by United Press
PETROGRAl), July 1.—“South o
Mahula. one of our reconnaissanc*
patrols severely punished the enemy
causing him great losses. I lie lead
or of the patrol was Corporal Glust
chcuko Tchorniawka, who, though
Communique.
Corporal cilustchenko Tcherniawki
is a woman. She bears an inhumai
hatred of the enemy. The Cossacl
patrol which she commands is notec
for its fearlessness and daring—al
ways led by her. She is known b)
the enemy to be a line soldier, bui
wild and brutal and relentless am
unpardoning. Her patrol is known a:
the “Eagles,” because these Cossacks
swoop down, do their bloody work am
disappear.
In this way the girl Cossack lead
er is avenging her father, Majoi
Cilustchenko, killed at the front sever
al months ago. She arrived at the
front in Sept, and has since beer
recommended six times for decora
tion. Her soldiers worship her ami
the enemy has put a price on her
head.
GREAT WARDEN SEES
TH \T PRISONERS’ FAMILIES
ARE CARED FOR
(Special to Gateway by United Press)
ALBANY, X. Y., July 1. — While
the Welfare League of Sing Sing is
being much discussed today the Hom
er Honor System at the Great Meadow
prison in Comstock is going on quiet
ly accomplishing its reward in a host
of redeemed men.
William J. Homer, warden at Great
Meadow and his wife, known by tire
prisoners as “Our Lady of Comstock,”
are meeting with success because they
know human nature and its needs.
“No man can be bettered in prison
if his mind is ill at ease because he
fear's for his relatives outside,” says
Warden Homer today.
“Therefore, the first thing that *s
done when a man enters Great
Meadow is to care for his family, see
that it is protected and that the in
nocent will not suffer outside the
prison walls while the guilty suffer
within.
“The normal man is made out of the
abnormal criminal by ethical, c loca
tional, physical and spiritual methods
at Great Meadow.
“If a man is physically defective he
?an not reform until his weakness has
seen obviated.”
Therefore Warden Homer deals
.vith each man as an individual. One
nan may need to be placed where he
can live in touch with nature, so he is
given work on the prison farm, while
another man may be obsessed with a
desire for knowledge, he is placed at
work in the prison library, or is given
some sort of clerical work that will
help him meet his desires.
Common sense, love and authority
are combined at Great Meadow and
that is why 100 per cent of its men
vriu 01 its graduates are making
good.
COLORADO, GONE DRV,
NOW DRINKS MILK
(Spec al to Gateway by United Press)
DENVER, Colo., July E—The re
port of the city’s bureau of charity
ami correction today shows that since
the Colorado prohibition law became
effective January 1 the people have
been drinking more milk. Prohibition
did not create an unemployment proo
lem because there have been fewer
“out of works” since January than foi
several years. The number of families
asking relief from the bureau has
been about a hundred a month less
than for the corresponding months
last year. Grocers reported better
collections.
MUNICIPAL SALOON
(Special to Gateway by United Press)
ALTOONA, Wis., July E—A muni
cipal saloon whose profits will build a
