tolik, together with the mail carriers, and time and again the stakes were knocked down by the deer in their passages across the bay; and when the matter was reported, no attention was paid to it. Travellers crossing, expect ing the stakes to be up. getting caught in a blizzard, another tale of frozen on the trail would appear, and that would. l presume, be the end of it.
 If the government really intends to benefit the Eslt imo send in a few me- chanics to teach them the proper use of tools: they can use them now. crudely, 1t is true, as the native schooner from here will bear silent witness, and it would be only a matter of d short time before they became expert. and would aud to the wealth of Alaska, not take from It. A sawmill on Unalaklik river with a cannery would make the Eskimo an exporter of canned salmon and also capable of supply ing all the lumber re- quired locally. If this was done the flow of reindeer dollars would cease, the Eskimo being benefited and possi- ply the thousands of dollars yet to be spent upon the reindeer might be di- verted to build schools, bridges. roads etc., for the benefits of Alaskans gener- ally.
 
 The rare discrimination shown by the mail contractors in the selection of the mail carriers on the route through and out of Cnalaklink is to be commen- ded. The past winter witnessed con tinual succession of biZzardS and snow storms, and to get the mail through on time has called out the best ener- gies of the mail carriers. They have never failed, and, to make connections, have broken trail day and night for so miles and were well satisfied to know that they had performed their duty and had not failed, as the mail was on tune. read a criticism upon the mail service, if the author knew of what he wrote. To be successful mail carrier one must possess the endurance of an athlete and the tenacity of a bulldog, d thor ough knowledge of his obligations and the sense of honor that place principle before all fatigue danger and the ter TOTS of the blizzard: and so long as the mail contractors deal with the known and capable carriers, will they earn the praise of the public, but let them deal in unknown or problematical qualities, the chances are their names as contrac- tors will sink into well-earned oblivion.
