not that one appointed TO one station and
another to another station that gives any

Eager did not introduce an Eskimo
dance. The other people in the party
from Alaska are Komik Sener and his
wife Unger Keetruk with their two little
girls, Aklapenk and Owea; Kok Sock with
his wife Suknuk and 22-months' 'old baby;
Kiokwsi, the old bachelor, and Miss
Riner. or course, they have not come way
down to the States just ia honor of the
engagement, for the relations between that
happy couple are merely incidental, but,
on the contrary, the trip is an
official one and means great deal
TO the whole Eskimo people. The
long continued and extensive traffic i'm the
furs and ivory which are obtained from
the seals and walrus of Alaska has re-
suited finally in reducing TO a minimum
the food supply of the natives. They live
on the fat and oil of these animals, but
there are so many other human beings
farther South that live on the fat OF the
land and wear seal skins that starvation
and oppression have been the results of
the trading companies energy.
They can't replace the seals already de-
stroyed and they won't stop catching
them in the future, so for the food supply
substitute has been suggested-the flesh
OF the reindeer. The scheme is To import
a number of these animals from Siberia,
teach the Eskimo how to breed them and
establish regular Government stations for
the work.
Areindeer Is worth four dollars. 1t costs
nine dollars to transport one from Siberia
TO Alaska. The bill before Congress is TO
secure an appropriation for this and its
only remonstrants are the representatives
of the fur trading companies for whose
interest it is to crush out this strange
northern race of people altogether. just
as an instance OF the oppression the trad
ers buy the meanest kind tobacco at IA
cents q pound and take it to
Alaska where they dispose of it
at nine dollars pound, the price
being paid in skins. For arifle the Eskimo
has TO give as many dressed skins as will,
when fattened out in pile, stand as high
rs the gun. But the Eskimos have many

This action, il carried put, means th
closing down OF every mill in the Wan

of employment OF 5000 operatives. The
spreading Of the strike TO all the mills is
due to the fact that after No. mill strike

The Democrats of Minnesota have not
been satisfied with the house tariff bill
because it failed to come up to their
ideas of genuine revenue reform, but
