The following description of the Esquimaus
met by the railway surveying party comes to
The Tribune from another source:
The Esquimaus met here far more in
terestng people than the ordinary Yukon Ind
ians, their Japanese features giving TO their
faces much more intelligent expression. The
writer learned considerable Of this interesting
people during the recent railroad survey II vde
by Messrs. Rutledge and Garside. "Esquimau
Charlie, an important parsonage among his own
people, being immensely wealthy, comparatively
tained the surveying party in a most deterentlal
style. Like all of his race in those parts, he
had the utmost reverence for any one connected
with the United States Government, and natu-
rally presumed a surveying instrument to be a
sort of National badge of distinction. Just about
this time the Government had returned TO 'Es-
Quimau Charlie" some three hundred reindeer
in compensation for less than half that number
lent by him TO the Government two years ago.
"Esquimau Mary" his wife, entertained a like
reverence for Uncle Sans agents and they
threw open their home. which is the best native
residence in that country. This home is a real
house, fitted up with odds and ends given them
from Government boats. Being rich and child
less, these good people feel il their duty to adopt
and rear homeless orphans. and. accordingly are
bringing up dozen so in a much more
civilized manner than fails to the lot of the
average native child.
When an Esquimau village was reached the
entire population would turn out to assist with
their reindeer teams, etc, and would place their
homes at the service Of the party, well as
their stores Scant enough in quantity. When
ready to move on further the population of the
village would escort the party the way to the
outskirts of the next village. The first thought
for a guests comfort upon his entering an
EsQuimau house is the state of the visitors
'muckluks' native shoes. They will crowd
around one, from grandfather to toddling in
fant, inquiring with breathless intentness If
the "hay is dry in your muckluks,' ana are
not satisfied with an affirmative answer your

sOllcitude, doubtless is the result Of their hav-

it is vital to life. We have no fear
that men will distrust Nature or deny
its facts and laws. We never grow
alarmed that time will come when
they will disbelieve in pure air, in
sunshine. in wholesome food for body
or brain, in intelligence, in the neceS-
Sity for education. and it is less likely
than ever that they will diSbelieve in
the principles Of morality.
All through the ages we have been
learning the necessity of virtue.
This is an age of faith. We believe
more in what is good, with greater
Intelligence, with deeper and firmer
conviction than in any past time. We
believe IN an orderly unlVerSe-ln I'M
changeable lawn the dominant
tendency of things toward the best.
We believe in liberty and justice, in
the right Of man to all that will help
to make manhood.
The deepest heart of man is not
Sceptical and the real, broad, general
drift OF things is not irreligiouS, it is
true that the tendency is away from
forms of faith but certainly not away
from any of the essential elements of
faith. Men are feeling their way to a
faith OF their own-One that will be
the result of their own thinking and
feeling-that VIII grow up naturally
and spontaneously from their inner
life-having its roots in personal con-
viction.
Man cannot.help believing, if he is to
live. That he may live manly, honor
able, useful life he must believe in
whatever is pure and right and good,
for the enduring life of individuals and
nations depends on an unwavering
trust in these ideal and eternal
qualities.
