The little tots enjoyed it as fully as though it had come off on scheddle time.
 In a recent parliamentary discussion at Ottawa, it was stated that last years investigation of the mineral resources of the Canadian Yukon by government engineers and geologists proved that there is upwards of S75,OOo,000 gold contained in and recoverable from the known auriferous gravels; also that the region undoubtedly contained addi- tional workable placer ground in areas which have been but little prospected. fhe gold yield of the Klondike or Canadian Yukon country for the past ten years has been over 3120,00o,000
 The Northern Lumber company will bring million feet of logs down the Klondike the coming season. Joe Segbers, manager of the mill, is plan ming to get the men into the jeld with in few days. The logs will be cut and thrown Into the Klondike about 60 miles above Dawson. The mill dam on the right limit of the Klondike, near the mouth, is in condition for service the same as it was before the Bonanza Basin dredge went to work in that vicinity last year. Something like a hundred men will be kept busy pre- pairing the logs and doing similar work for the mill. Mir. Segbers says that there is a good demand for lumber this wear. The call for sluiceboX lumber continues strong from the Dominion side of the divide-Dawson News.

Considering the important place church has in the life of community, we are glad to note that Alaska is not found wanting in a goodly number of these institutions. Taken together, they are helping to form public opinion at once strong and safe, and to maintain those principles which have ever been the beast of good gov ernment. Reports from the various denominations which are supporting churches show substantial growth in the number of buildings erected throughout Alaska, and also in the number of mem bers added. We record this, among the many other phases of development, as worthy of especial consideration. The church and school house have ever had conspicuous place in our national life. May their tribe increase."- Nome News.
 Never was the truth of there being commercialism in politics better illus trated than by seeing the Washington delegation in Washington coming to the aid of Delegates Gale and Waskey in their efforts to have conditions in Alaska considerably bettered. It is noted that Congressman Humphrles has prepared bill for special appro- priation by getting a much needed second class winter mail service for interior Alaska. This comes about, no doubt. from the Seattle members de- string the help of Mr. Gale and Mir. Waskey to secure aid for the Alaskan fair. This exchange of support may yet hasten the passage of needed legis- lation for the north. The fair is already benefting the people of Alaska, for our delegates have quickly learned the trick of trading official support Fairbanks Times.
 News brought up by men who had just come up the Tanana river is to the effect that the strange malady with which so many Nenana Indians have recently become affected is proving a deadly epidemic. The extermination of the whole tribe is threatened unless the epidemic is stamped out A hunter who stopped at Nenana on the way up states that the conditions thre are
 
 really alarming One of them will be stricken suddenly and will die the next day, or sooner. In none of the many fatal cases reported to him had the invalid lived more than two or three days. Nenana is on the line of all lower river travel, and there is hardly a day that one or more white travellers do not appear there. Several whites, roadhouse, trading post and signal corps people live there. It is consider ed remarkable that no whites have as yet been attacked by the disease. Be- cause of this fact it is believed that the malady is contagious; that personal contact is necessary for it's spread. None of the whites have been able to diagnose the cases or satisfactorily de- fine the malady. They are somewhat anxious and are hoping the condition will soon be investigated by the mis- sion people or federal authorities. It is argued that if by chance some white traveller is affected, it would spread great deal faster than is possible now where it is confined to one small colony of natives.-Fairbank Times.

Speaker Cannon spoke to the Porto . Ricaus recently on their own territory ! and very earnestly promised them self government, yet he has not word of hope to say to the Americans of Alaska. WLat is there about the negroes of the West Indies, the yellow men of the Orient and the Kanakas of the Pacific isles that call forth patriotic interest that our statesmen deny Americans in the North? The demand for self-gov- ernment is far more nearly unanimous in Alaska than it is in any of these newly acquired islands. Our popula. ton, unlike with the mottled peoples of the other non- contiguous American poss essions, is made up of white men and women, who not only have had eX- perience in self-government, but who are the children of generations of self governing ancestors. Yet, we are denied rights that are inherent in our citizen ship and race which are granted the others for the asking. This is d very peculiar phase of modern American statesmanship.-EX.
 So Yukon territory is to be given complete home.rule. Its legislative body will be made wholly elective. Already it has a representative in par liament with all the rights and privi- leges of one from the self-governing provinces, and now it is to be given control of it's own affairs without string. While this is pleasant news to Alaskans it leaves a taste that is not without bitterness. Yukon territory Is an outIayiug country, the territory of a monarchy, possessing less than one- fifth the population of Alaska and not that proportion of producing resources, and it's British subjects are granted rights that are denied to the American citizens of this district. 1t is enough to create an unpleasant feeling, surely, but the bitterness would be far greater did we not all possess that patriotic confidence ip the American people which creates an abiding hope that our government, too, will awaken to the principles involved and grant us that justice which is our due.-EX.
 Peter Noren, we'll known to many residents of Seattle and also to Alas kans, where he spent many years as miner. lost his life in Korea on March 3. while trying to rescue several en- tombed miners, says the Seattle Times: Noren's body was taken to Ping Yang by his wife and was buried in the American cemetery at that place. The brief details of Noren's death were re- ceived in this city yesterday by Mrs. Willis A. Petter, of 241S Sixth Avenue West. in letter from a friend of the Norens, who lives in Ping Yang. The letter merely says that there were eight men, natives, in the mine of which Norcn was foreman, and that he was killed in desperate effort to encom- pass their rescue. Mrs. Noren will leave in a short time for her old home in Sweden and will later return to Se- attle. Peter Noren was for some years, until five years ago, employed at the Treadwell mine on Douglas Island. At the request of the Treadwell people he went to Korea to take charge of a mine owned by them in the interior. Noren was in Seattle on visit year or two ago, and when he returned his wife went with him. Noren was about A5 years old. He had no children.
