eruptions, boils and pimples which are
so likely to appear in the Spring;
cures serofula diseases in their most
tenacious forms cures salt rheum or

burning; adapts itself equally well
to, and also cures, dyspepsia and all
stomach troubles due to generally

in nine cases out of ten, exist because
the impure blood cannot supply prop

"No phase of our modern industrial
development is more interesting than
the study and observation of the
methods of cancellations and arbitrar

the adjustment of difficulties and
grievances that constantly arise be-
tween labor and capital. Strikes, and
lockouts are, perhaps, a greater waste
OF human energy, and responsible for a,
greater loss of wealth. to society as, a
whole than any other obstructive
factor connected with modern indust-
rialism. Public opinion itself has
been indifferent and uniformed as to
the requirements of this new age with
its rapid and wonderful development
in every department. of our Industrial
life. Recognizing the new claims
arising from modern industrial condi-
lions, the National Civic Federation
will hold Il national conference in

ut is the object of the National

conference as practical as possible by

CONDITIONS OF INDIANS IN
NORTHERN ALASKA.
SLOWLY STARVING TO DEATH
Census Officers Report Them Prob
ably Poorest People on
Continent.

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE censu.
bureau recently completed enumera.
tion of the district of Alaska. The
schedules have been received at the
office and are now in process of tabu.
lation. The director of the census
today gave out the following state
ment with reference t o the work in
the great territory:
Samuel D. Durham, who had charge
OF the work i'll the northern district,
returned to Washington a few DAYS
ago and submitted his final report.
He left Washington for this work May
4, 1899. The native and mixed popu-
lation of the northern district of
Alaska is 12, $50. The most populous
district with respect to native popu-
lation is the country lying between
the Yukon and Eusko Quin rivers and
extending back from the coast 100
miles.
Maurice Johnson, agent for this dis
trict, travelled we z, 1000 miles with a
dog team during the winter and
enumerated 3,013 persons, all of
whom were Indians. The indians in
this region are probably the most des-
titute people Oh the North American
continent. Johnson reports that from
December l to March Is he visited "a
interior villages and during that time
saw but three fires burning in the
shacks or dugouts. The poor creatures
huddle together in their miserable
dwellings during the long winter and
subsist on frozen fish and a little seal
Oil, which they secure on the coast
during the summer. The fur bearing
animals which formerly furnished
them with natural clothing, are nearly
extinct and they have been forced to
adopt white mans garb, and as their
poverty prevents them from securing
enough to cover their ~nakedness,
there is great suffering from cold. The
spiritual condition of these neglected
natives is nc better than the physical,
as the missionaries devote their atten-
tion to more attractive fields in the
gold region and along the river, where
their good work may be seen.
Nome district is the most populous
in northern Alaska. The enumeration
showed a permanent white population
on June !, of 2,704. During the sum-
mel about IS, 900 people landed at
Nome. about $500 of them coming
from Dawson. About 10, 900 have re-
turned to their homes in the states,
leaving about 5000 people. in the region
contiguous to Nome. 1t is probable
that the population of the town of
Nome during the winter will be be-
tween 4, 900 and 1000.
