Queens representing the five civilized
tribes in Indian Territory are TO be "a
feature Of a fair and carnival to be
held in Fort Smith, Ark. The Choc-
taws, Chickasaws and Creeks have
signifed their acceptance Of the inyi-
tation held out by the executive com
mittee, and there seems to be no doubt
Of acceptance by the other tribes. This
will be the first time in the history
Of the United States that the tribes
ever took part in an undertaking in
which white men presided. 1t is pro-
posed that the queens shall be chosen
by the tribes according to their laws.
They must be ful.-bloodel Indians. and
each will have an escort Of full
blooded Indians in the carnival. They
will have the place OF honor among
queens chosen from the cities sur
rounding Fort Smith, and the occasion
will be made one in which the Indians
and whites will be drawn more closely

The wild dog, uninauenced at all by
association with man, is typical Of
nothing but the wolf. and in the cir
cumpolar ice he is found in numbers
rowing over the fields of snow and ice,
frequently in company with the
wolves. The Eskimos have taken
these wild creatures and by a rude
process OF. selection and training they
have developed the "huEkie," a col
loquial abbreviation OF the word Es-
kimc These animals represent a type
OF dog but little removed from the
wolf-hardy, vicious, swift Of foot AMI
keen Of eye. They have been trained
to haul sledge loads Of goods across
the snow and ice and this comes as
natural to them as for a pointer to
point. They possess the blood Of the
wolf, however, in their veins-the
faint of the jaekal At the first oppor-
tunity they will run away and join
the wild dogs and deteriorate rapidly
in their company. Throughout the
great northwest it is hard work tc
make up a full team of strictly pure
huskies. The leader of the team is il
variably a trustworthy huskie. bu

OF the gospel though he be, describes
this phase of crimes evolution IN the
following scientific and unorthodor
way:
"The innate cruelty of children,
their tendency to lying, together with
that proclivity 10 impulsive wrong
doing so peculiar TO youth, all point
strongly to original rudimeItary GRIM
inoifstic propensities." The chaplain
says these are the remnants OF past
racial proclivities," but the reverend
scientist would have hard work prov
ing that they are not proclivities of
the present as much as OF the past.
He goes on to Observe:
Indeed. some of the advanced
school have maintained that the germs
Of moral insanity and crime are both
equally normal in the first years Of
man"
Difference in Races
st is highly probable that the gen.
eral changes and differences observable
among races extend as well to the in
depreciation OF the special criminal
Characterization, and are found in him
in varying and accentuated forms. In
| this respect, it is therefore probably
I true that the italian offender differs
from criminals OF other races precisely
/ in the same manner and to the same
extent as the normal members Of such
races differ from one another, preserv-
ing each their main racial Characters
tics, modified only by local conditions.
Max Nordau comes near this idea
when, in his Degeneration he cites
his masters born criminal as being
nothing but a subdivision of degen-
crates Had he inserted the word
racial before degenerates. he would
perhaps have conformed more nearly
to the explanation here ventured.
