there, is in round numbers BLOOD.
This is the first regular census ever
taken of the Territory, though an ap-
Proclamation was made in 1890 Of SO, :
600. The decrease, he says, is due to
the natives dying off from the result
OF their contact with modern civil,
ization, or rather from their contact
with the vices of the civilized white
man. The population consists OF
about $1,000 Esquimaux, 5000
whites, 2,3m Chinese, and the re,
