IT’S A REAL PLEASURE
to view the new wall decorations on
view here exclusively. They are so
unconventional, so out of the common
and so unusually artistically attrac
tive. If you plan to repaper you
should by all means see these new
papers. To decide without doing so
is apt to result in regret later.

JAPANESE UNO
UNITED SMS
IN AGREEMENT
WASHINGTON, D. C.—Diplomatic
thought has been directed to a sig
nificant dispatch from Petrograd,
wherein the Bourse Gazette comments
upon alleged recent diplomatic ex
changes between the United States
and Japan, which have resulted in an
understanding between the two gov
ernments. The writer says: “If it is
true that friendship has been assured
between these two nations, the fact
will have an enormous influence on
■world policy, and the greatest profit
from such development would accrue
to the near east allies of Japan, name
ly Great Britain and Russia. It would
mean that Germany had lost all hope
of sea domination from the far east,
of sea domination and was expelled
forever from the far east. Japan, in
giving such guarantees, acts in full
solidarity with the allies. The friend
ship between America and Japan can
not relegate to the second place of
I importance the relations between Rus
i sia and Japan. On the contrary, it
! would give those relations more sta
I bility.”
That Japan has given assurance to
the United States government, and
j that, too, quite recently, of her friend
■ ship, there is hardly any question,
i That is clearly a matter of fact. Ja
| pan, well satisfied with the trade con
ditions between her empire and this
country, as indeed they have never ex
ceeded in volume the record of the
past* year. Her authorized represen
tatives have said concerning this fea
ture of the Pacific situation, that Ja
pan can hardly be expected to want to
seek a quarrel with her best custom
er. But as for the future, also, it has
become known that Japan is placing
great store upon her future financial
dealings with the United States. One
phase of the relations between the two
governments is a mater of concern in
Tokio as well as in Washington. That
is the persistent practice of many
newspapers to refer frequently to the
so-called “Pacific menace,” with the
result that a public opinion has been
built up to some extent that would
expect possible future dangers in the
Pacific when the present war is over.
For the present, in the view of con
servative diplomats here, leaving out
of consideration whether there is any
foundation for the fears entertained,
it is considered unwise to give public
ity to these vaguely defined and sin
ister references to Japan. The view
is taken that if there is foundation for
fear, no patriotic or other good pur
pose is served in keeping the matter
before the public, and if the fear is
not well founded, then the publication
is reprehensible. Japanese statesmen,
as well as United States officials, feel
the force of this, and they are men
who are sincerely hoping that the re
lations of the two nations may re
main friendly. In the view of United
States officials who are familiar with
the relations with Japan, and who
know how during the past year Jap
anese officials have studiously sought
to have it appear that they are val
uing the friendship of the United
States, opportunity ought to be afford
I ed at least for the demonstration of
j that friendship.

Latest War News at Peterson’s. 899
Residents of Whitehorse held a
meeting recently for the purpose of
forming a golf club at that place.
AT THE EMPRESS.
TONIGHT—Sparkling Variety—Sun
day and Monday, Powerful Drama.
William S. Hart's most popualr suc
cess, "The Desciple,” will be seen at
the Empress theatre Sunday and Mon
day, March 18 and 19. Hart has a
powerful role as the frontier mission
ary in “The Desciple." The story is
that of a strong, pure enthusiast who
is married to a pretty woman without
strength of character. Dorothy Dal
ton, as the wife, brings out interest
ingly the personality of the shallow
creature who leaves her little girl and
virile husband for the flashy gambler
type of saloon keeper. The daughter
is charmingly played by little Thelma
i Slater. Charles K. French is convinc
• ing as the square, courageous Bird
j shot Bivens.
Hart commands and holds attention
| from the start, when he appears as
; the visionary frontier missionary of
Barren Gulch. He is powerful by his
restraint, as well as by his facial ex
pressions, when he appears as a man
awakening from a bad dream after nc
hears of his' wife’s elopement. There
is a great climax in the last scene
where the husband compels “Doc”
Hardy to accompany him to his cabin
at the point of his gun, and another
when he is tempted to shoot him, but
thrusts it aside on seeing a vision.
The supreme sacrifice this two-fist
ed, bepistoled minister made in re
calling the wife who had deserted him,
and the doctor-lover she had eloped
with, that his little child might be
saved from sickness—and the after
math—form the basis of this pictured
play.
As Mr. Hart was feared on the
plains himself, he is well-fitted to en
act the role of a plainsman. His fa
miliar and determined face in many
“movie” plays at the Empress is fresh
in the memory of grownups and chil
dren of Anchorage.
This Saturday evening, Lois Mere
dith, in the National success, “Help
Wanted,” together with other interest
ing features, present a program sel
