IRISH AUTHOR CAUSES
TROUBLE WITH NOVEL
DUBLIN.—The Irish Times re
cords disturbances ‘n Westmeath- !
provoked solely by a novel written!
by Brinsley Macnamara, a native of
Devlin. The book is full of local
color and the inhabitants visited
their indignation on the father of
the author, who is a local school- j
master, and attempted to evict him
from his school. They were not sue-!
cessfjul, but they prevented their j
children from attending the school,!
which is now practically closed. The j
population is .however, not united
in approval of these methods of lit-j
erary censorship and the event has ’
led the breaking up of the local j
Sinn Fein and volunteer organiza
tions, the leaders of which -dis
couraged the protests.
GIANT WIRELESS TOWER
SENDS ORDERS TO SUBS
LONDON.—Wireless opreators on
American and other ships crossing
the Atlantic at night frequently pick
up orders being sent by the German
admiralty to submarines at sea. The
messages are in code, of course, and
the submarines never acknowledge
receipt of the orders because if they
did some warship of the enemy might
get a clue as to the locaiton of one
or more of the under-sea boats.
Thes messages to the submarines
are from Nauen, a small town near
Spandau, wrhere Germany has its
great wirelss station. Electrical
waves produced there will reach
some 6-000 miles.
Nine towers are in use, the high
est being 850 feet. Last year Nauen
sent to the outside world almost
5,000,000 words for the German gov
ernment.
PLEASURE AIRPLANES MAY
COME AFTER THE WAR
LONDON.—An English airplane
factory proposes after the war to
manufacture a standardized airplane
for popular use, which is expects to
be able to put on the market at a
uniform price of $500.
Cap Williams, the reinder king,
visted Ruby recntly from his herd,
visited Ruby recently from his herd
and reported that his deer were do
ing fine. He says he will have about
70 deer for the market during the
winter.
It is now definitely known that
the 31st Engineers, the regiment
that was recruited from Anchorage
has arrived in France, and Anchor
age people are sure that their boys
will give a good acocunt of them
selves.
It has been definitely decided that
the steamer Dora, which has served
the people of Western Alaska so
faithfully for such a long time, will
1 be withdrawn from the service on
August 20 and taken to Seattle to
be sold. It is not known how the
points formerly served by the Dora
will recive their mail and freight,
in the future, as no provision has
as yet been made for securing an
other boat for the run.

EDITORS DISPUTE
t
WORD OF KAISER
AMSTERDAM.—The Frankfurter
Zeitung is not pleased with Emperor
William’s speech on the occasion of
the thirtieth anniversary of his ae- i
cession. The paper disputes his as- J
sertion that the great war is a
struggle between two different world
conceptions—on one hand the Ger
man conception of right, freedom,
honor and morals, and on the other
the Anglo-Saxon conception.
“It is not a question of two world
conceptions” says the Frankfurter,
“but of two world powers, each pos
sessing might the like of which the
world has never seen before.”
“The German people were not told
on August 4, 1914, they were going
out to fight the Anglo Saxon con
ception of the w'orld until it con
quered. Had that been said, even I
in veiled terms, the high unity of j
the will of the German people would : ^
have been rent asunder on the first
day. For the German did not think
of this or that kind of world con
ception. He thought of the Father
land’s need, of home, and wife and
mother.”
SOLDIERS RECEIVE RAZORS
Razors are being issued to the

The cases of the Canoe Pass Pack-j
ing company and Northwestern Fish-!
eries company, charged with a waste :
of fish in Abercrombie canyon, came i
up before United States Commis
sioner Medley, of Cordova, recently.
The defendants both pleaded guilty
and were each fined $250 and costs.
