PROTECTING THE GAME.
Relatively quick action was had on the request by officials
acquainted with conditions that the sale of sheep and moose be
prohibited in this section of Alaska.
Prior to tin* establishment of cold storage plants at Anchor
age there was a wide section around Cook Inlet which had' no
other meat supply than game to depend upon for several months
in the year. This condition still obtains in tin* Bristol bay
country.
Past year so many moose were killed and shipped to An
chorage that a game warden was sent over there and several
arrests were made. With the increase in the number of settlors
he drain on game means the rapid annihilation of moose and |
sheep unless protection is afforded.
Several plans were suggested, including the establishment
.»f a national park on the west side of Kenai peninsula, making
tin* same section into a game refuge, and the plan adopted. It
has also been suggested that the limit be reduced so far as
trophy hunters are concerned.
The now ruling does not alter the present law, which per
mits any resident of Alaska to kill two moose and three sheep
during each open season, merely preventing the sale of any
game killed under this regulation.
CARRANZA IS ALSO PLAYING THE GAME.
Three years ago President Wilson took the Mexican prob
lem to congress, and he then declared that an orderly and con
stitutional and fair election should lie held' in that country.
Since then he has taken no stops to secure this result but his
protege, Carranza, is supplying the omission. Carranza has
just decreed that an election shall take place in Mexico, at
which lie will be a candidate. In order that the election shall
■ suit in no mischance choice of a president for Mexico, Car
ranze will name all tin* election officers, who in turn will pre
pare all the lists of voters. Thus, none but Carranza men will
come t«i t lie polls ami Carranza will be chosen. It is evident that
I'arrauza has studied the model of Woodrow Wilson’s party to
good advantage. This is the method which the Democratic
parts in the South adopts to keep itself in power. We shall
presently see how it will work still further south, in Mexico.
GERMANY’S PORTALS.
Whatever may lie tIk* ultimate outcome of the war, as to
kings and potentates and nations and principalities, woman
seems to have won, on the east front, oil the west front and lie
tween fronts. Now comes a dispatch from Berlin, which Brit
ish censors have graciously permitted to he translated' to us,
saving one of the results of the vjar is the astonish ing.-incroase
of women students in all German uni versifies. Before the war
women rarely studied anything hut medicine, philosophy, litera
ture and art Now thev are taking up all kinds of scientific pro
fessions. Mostly, however, they are studying law. By the time
peace is declared, it is said, Germany will have more women
lawvers than any other nation. And then they may turn to
making or remaking laws that will hetrlOre to their liking.

A New Jersey man arrested for sewing up his hog’s eves
so the animal couldn’t catch his chickens, might have known it

Significant of the old fashioned warfare in Roumania is
the note in one of tin* official reports of the capture of caissons,
those picturesque adjuncts to tin* cannon of bygone days.

As the weeks puss-with the Bremen failing to show up, New
London, Conn., where extensive preparations to receive the

Eugene Brieux, the French dramatist and academieiu, is
now teaching the war’s blinded men, having already done his
part in opening the eyes of the world to some startling condi

Even Switzerland, budded on the spirit of liberty and the
pride of its sturdy people instead of loyalty to a sovereign, is
reported to have been embittered’ by the war. No neutral in
Europe is safe from the diplomats, from their designs to influ
ence sentiment and bestir active participation on the side they
represent. If Switzerland is tinged, then how weak Greece must
seem in the clutches of circumstance with a king to whom lov
altv is divided, the free days of Athens long dead!
