HELPING INDIANS WISELY
They have a woman's society at
Nome ihpt tis doing more to solve the
Indian question in Alaska than all the
Washington appointed government
orticials in the district. This society is
teaching a community of Eskimos how
to earn a living and care (or them
selves under civilized (conditions. The
Indians are being taught to work,
to use their money judiciously and to
keep their bodies warm and clean.
They are taught that these are the first
necessities to their existence. They
are instructed in the "Three R's." and
to use the English language correctly,
but that is made a matter of secondary
importance.
These Nome women have helped the
Indians to build an hospital, bathhouse,
laundry and school house combined
They help the Indians to get employ
ment and teach them how to do their
work so they car. hold their jobs. Then
they advise them as to what to do with
their monev.
Cntil this policy shall have been
adopted with ail the Indians of Alaska
there will be more or less money wast
ed by the federal government and
missionary societies. Too much energy
is being u?ed in trying to impress upon
the Indians the necessity of accepting
a particular scheme of salvation and to
fill their heads with chaotic ideas of
sciecce and "book learning" while
their greatest need is to know how to
use their hands and to care for their
oodies. A clean, healthy, well c'othed
Indian, in a clean warm house, who
knows how to do something well, is
worth hundreds of these dissolute
things with a smattering of education,
living from hand to mouih. professing
religion when broke and rioting in
debauchery when ilush with money.
President Roosevelt has run against
a snag. He has discovered that Senator
Foraker is not >o easily beaten as he
thought when it comes to the political
same The Cincinnati republican
machine has served notice on him that
if a negro is appointed to position in
their city. Son-in-iaw Nick will never
again be nominated for congress or
given further political honors. Son
in-iaw Nick has gotten all his favors by
playing with Boss Cox and the other
machine men. Now these men say to
him that he must stay the hand of his
father-in-law or there will be retri
bution. Of course Senator Foraker is
entireh ignorant of this latest move !
Do not permit i: to hurt your feelings
should you get one of those horribly
ugly and vulgar comic valentines today.
If it were sent in fun, consider the
spirit, and, if in malice, remember that
the enmity of one who would vent his
spleen in 'such a cowardly manner is
rattier complimentary than otherwise.
Those Washington state legislators
who are pressing for passage the
Pennypacker libel law should not for
get to take cognizance of the fate that
overtook Pennypacker. His law be
came a dead letter and he became
deader than his law.
There was a time when the governor
of a state or territory was regarded as
an executive officer, but it seems that
under the present regime the goyernor
of Alaska is simply a common lobbyist
for special interests.
The socialists are becoming a factor
in Canadian politics. They cast about
3,000 votes in the recent British Colum
bian [election, holding more than the
balance of power between the parties.
The Seattle Times is opposing the
primary law that has been introduce
Into the Washington legislature. The
Seattle republican ring also opposes
the bill.

Dr, H. E. Young. member of tire
British Columbia parliament, who left
for the South on the Amur, says they
had an interesting election contest at
Atlin. Capt. Irving is recognized as a
good campaigner and a m*n who hits
many friends. However, Dr. Young's
majority was decisive.
'?Ttie issue of the election,-' said Dr.
Young, "was the Grand Trunk Pacific
on the one hand and the provincial
government or the other.
?'The latter h ad refused the
coming railroad a land grant, holding
that its concessions from the Dominion
were sufficient for it. The railroad
made a war on the administration.
"The administration was sustained
by the people."
The new British Columbia parlh
ment will contain -t> conservatives, 13
liberals and three socialists. Tnis
doubles the conservative majority.
ALASKA READY FOR
SELF-GOVERNMENT
(Nome News)
When ,a boy breaks away from the
ties of home and manes bis way in the
world, he is, when he gains recognition,
heralded with pride as a self-made
man. This bit of philosophy is
advanced on account of the stock cry
that is heard from mauy that "This
territory is not yet ready for self
government." This can be taken as
the sage advice of men who have little
confidence in themselves and ua utter
lack of it in others. This country is
now ready for self-government, and it
a has population made up of self made
men far in excess of that of mauy other ,
territories when admittted to territor- j
ial government.
