Disguised with the efforts of the
Great Northern to annlhilate the tel
egraphers' union. and tired of being
designated as "scabs.' four nom
union telegraphers from Kansas City,
woo had been imported to work for
]. ]. Hill during the telegraphers'
strike, passed through the city today
on their return to Kansas City, where
they have commercial work to do on
reaching their destination.
These men are Frank Foster, Geo.
Graham. Milo Burns and David Car
rigan, all of whom were commercial
telegraphers in Kansas City offices
when the strike was declared and who
came north at the solicitation of an
agent of the Great Northern, on
promise of being made station agents
at large towns, with munificent SAL
aries and many perquisites on the
side.
They quit $50 per month positions
IN Kansas City and went to the
Great Northern where they were sent
out to lonely stations along the line
ut S55 per month with a boxcar for a
home and meals when they could get
them from nearby farm house or
sheep camp.
Being unfamiliar with train order
work, they were at great disadvan-
tage and had trouble with train and
engine men the first hour and every
hour they worked They were al
ways designated by the union men in
the train and engine service as
"scabs" and IN several instances train
crews absolutely refused to take or
ders from them because of their ig-
norance of train order rules.
Finally becoming disgusted with
tie positions which they had been
given and dlsheartened to think they
were making fight against men in
their own profession, they decided to
leave the Great Northern and promis-
ed each other that they would never
become strike breakers again, no mat
ter what the inducements.
They say there are hundreds of boys
just learning telegrap'y in the large
cities OF the east who are allured to
the west by promises of good Jobs,
but who on coming west find condl-
tions vastly different from the stories
told them. Ninety per cent of the
strike breaking telegraphers who
we're imported are now disgusted with
their jobs and are quitting every day.

REINDEER EXPERIMENT IS SUCCESSFUL

That the government reindeer ex-
pertinent now being carried on In

bureau of education and with the
cooperation of the missionary socle-
ties will come out unscathed from
the investigation now in progress con-
oerning 1t, is the opinion of Mr.. and
Mrs, u. Z. Foster, of Deering, Alaska,
for the past four years In charge Of
the Friends Mission at that place,
says the Seattle News.
Mr. and Mrs. Foster returned from
the north yesterday on the steamship
Senator on their way to their former
home in California. While in Seattle
they are guests Of the Hotel Wash
ington.
Mr.. and Mrs. Foster have with
them a native girl, II years of age,
which they are taking to California
to place in school. Her name Is
years in the mission schools in Alas
ka and is ambitious to complete her
education in order to become a teach
er among her own people.
Mr.. Foster and Captain Fred Sand
strom were the original discoverers
of the Fairhaven mining district on
the Imanchuck river which flows into
the Arctic ocean. They went into the
country first in the season of 1900.
Mr.. Foster has a number of valuable
claims in the district which he is pre-
pairing to work on large scale next
year by the installation of hydraulic.

of the animals at the Deering mis-

of vast benefit to both the natives
and to the white men there. The
mission was loaned 100 of the ami
mails and the chief herder, an Esqul-
mo named James Keek, has n herd
of 800.
"The chief herder has five assist
ants who at the end of five years
apprenticeship will be supplied with
25 deer each as the beginning of a
herd. The animals afford meat for

who purchase it of the owners of

than $500 worth of meat to white

and with the natives do not under

natives to properly care for the ami
mails. Our herd is the only one of
any size in Alaska now in charge of
an Esqulmo herder, the rest being in
charge of Laplanders imported into
the district as teachers.
Eventually Esquimos will be
taught to care for the deer. 1t would
be impracticable to distribute the
deer among the natives without first
teaching them to care for them. When
the members of congress and gov
ernment officials generally under
stand these conditions they will bet
