the information that Senator
Perkins is making n strong

ters of California. Senator
Perkins believes that where
the Republicans can secure
control of the Senate protec-
ton will be granted by bounty
or increase of duty. The
San Francisco Bulletin in
commenting on the PROPOSE
ton says: "Senator Perkins
has introduced a resolution
instructing the Finance Com
mittee to report an amend
ment to the revenue bill in
creasing the duty on raw
sugar. He will support the
resolution with a speech in
tended to enlighten the Sena-
tors as to the value of the
beet-sugar industry. The
beet-sugar industry is in line
with the iron and steel in
dustry, the wooden industry
and the manufacture of tin
plates. Sugar can easily be
produced in the United States
in quantities sufficient to sup
ply the home demand, but the
cost of production in this
country is greater than in
countries from which we inn
port sugar. 1t is just a ques-
ton whether the government
shall impose duties on foreign
sugar equal to the difference
in the cost of production OF
whether we shall continue t.
buy our sugar abroad. This
is a branch of industry III
which farmers may be direct
ly protected. So long as we
export wheat we can extend
to the farmer only indirect
protection. But if we place a
duty on sugar the producer is
protected to the full amount
of the duty. Farmers who
find it difficult to make the

By far the most interesting ruins on
the coast were those we found near the
entrance TO Nachvack bay. 1t was evil
dent from their appearance that they
had never been visited BY d=secra ting
strangers. and even the natives dis
claimed all knowledge of them. Upon
a narrow strip Of beach at the foot of
d precipitous rayine, cutting the crest
Of the mountainous cliffs Which over
hang the sea, half buried in shingles
and weighted with a heavy covering of
turf and moss, are the well-preserved
remains Of what was once the residence
Of a pOpulous tribe. The main entrance
had been formed by setting upon end
the lower jawbone of a whale. This
led into a broad passageway, from
which smaller ones branched at irreg-
Ualr intervals, and which terminated
at the various family apartments, or
babitatioUs. Whales bones entered
largely into the construction of the
whole, no other material having been
used for supports. Nachvack is far be-
yond the northern tree limit of the
coast, and these we're doubtless the best
substitute for timbers which could be
procured. The vcrtebrae of whales had
been used as stools and for various
other purposes; the framework OF
Kayaks and komatiks, skin boats and
sledges, were Of bone and horn; the
weapons and implements were Of stone.

were present to have filed a ship, but
