THE RELIEF IT WOULD AFFORD

The Juresu Transcript takes 8 col umn and a half 10 say that territorial government would no; relieve Alaska from Gov. Haggat, and ht7 ideas of legislation. It says he would have the right to veto any bill that territorial legislature might pass that would not suit the federal brigade. 1t also says the people would always be bound hand and foot by .he federal government be- cause. tl assumes, the president would meyer appoint 8 :governor unless he be listas,etul to the people of the North.
 The contentious have no basis in fact. h territories as in states the legisla- lures have a right to pass bills over the gover's veto. They frequently do it.
 However. the contention that the people of Alaska would not be consulted by the president in the selection Of governor for the territory is ridiculous President Roosevelet told every Alaskan that called upon him that he desired to appoint a successor to Gov. Brady that would be satisfactory 10 the people ot the district. He would DO, have sp, pointed Gov. Hoggatt had the latter not been generously endorsed by Alaskans.
 It might be well to add that Gov. Hoggatt secured many of his Alaskan endorsements by promising to keep out of the territorial government fight, a promise which he broke almost before the ink was dry on his commission,

FALsEaooD AND FOLLY

The tory organs published down at Juneau are doing their level best to keep their readers in ignorance ot the true conditions in Alaska. For instance, the Record Miner refers to the "tr ans tent miners who made the Tansns fsmous, and the army that annually fits to and fro from Nome" IL refers to the miners occupation as calling for 'qittle or 60 luvestment" aud says he should not be permitted ito dictate the policies Of the territory even though be be ia the majority" It urges that ,the best people" should control.
 We will overlook the slur on the man who tolls with his hands, made more odious because it is accompanied by the pstronizing assurance that mo discred.t is cast upon the transient miner" We will overlook the un- truthful insinuatiou ,hatAIaska wouldbe against territorial government were it no, for these men & Nome and of Fair banks who are producing ,hree-iourths of Alsska's gold crop an untruth that is patent even in Juneau because that town stands exactly on the issue of the day where stand Nome and Fairbanks with their transient miners" We will overlook the rePudiation of the principle of majority rule. the corner stone of republics.
 We will consider only that the Rec ord- Miner would have it's readers believe the untru,n that the miners who operate ac Nome and Fairbanks are transient and not permanent res ideuts of Masks. Iuneau'> position as the capital city of Alaska is insecure and totter.us today because 100 many of the people down there have given ear 10 jus, such iaIsehoods as that.
 The fact of .he matter IS rha, the people who remain in either the Nome district or ,he TanaDa. year after year. winter and summer, outnumber those of Southeastern Alaska 0y two 10 one, The vote of Fairbanx> a, .tN municipal election held tn the early spring before the begjuuiog of navigation out numberel the vote ot Juneau at it's municipal election by nearly two to- one. The vote of Nome under the same conditions was about three times greater than ,ha. Of Juneau. In fact the vote cast aJ Nome in April was greater than that cast in August, when the people declared for Gale, Was key and territorial government Thst cast at Fairbanks in Angus. was slight ly larger than that cast at the same iu April.

beyond their depth, and each was compelled to
relax his mold and SWIM for his life. There was
still one loaded rifle upon the shore. and each
swan hard in order to obtain it; but the Indian
proved the mole expert swimmer, ana Adam, see
ing that he should be too late, turned and swan
cut into the stream, intending to dive, and thus

in order TO assist him. Another white man fol-
lowed him closely, and seeing Adam in the river
covered with blood, and swimming rapidly from
shore, mistook him for an Indian, and fired upon
him, Wounding him dangerously in the shoulder.
Adam turned and seeing his brother, called loudly
upon him to shoot the big Indian upon the
shore" Andrews gun, however, was empty, hav-
ing just been discharged.
Fortunately, Big Foot had also seized the gun
with which Adam had shot the lesser Indian, so
they were botn on an equality. The contest now
was who should load first. Big Foot poured in his
powder first, and drawing his ramrod out of lis
sheath in too great a hurry, threw it in the river,
and while he ran to recover it, Andrew gained an
advantage. Still the Indian was but a second too
late, for his gun was at his shoulder When An
drew's ball entered his breast. The gun dropped
from his hands. and he fell forward on his face,
on the very margin of the river.
Andrew, now alarmed for his brother, who was
scarcely able to swim, threw down his gun, and
rushed into the river, in order to bring him
ashore; but Adam. more intent upon securing the
scalp of Big Foot as a trophy than upon his own
safety, called loudly upon his brother to leave
him alone and scalp the big Indian, who was now
endeavoring to roll himself in the water, from a
romantic desire, peculiar to the Indian warrior,
Of securing his scalp from the enemy. Andrew
however, refused to obey, and insisted upon saving
the living before attending to the dead. Big Foot,
in the meantime, had succeeded in reaching the
deep water before he expired, and his body was
borne off by the waves. without being stripped
of the ornament and pride of an Indian warrior.
Not a man OF the Indians had escaped. Five of
Big Foots brothers, the flower of the Wyandott
nation, had accompanied him in the expedition,
and all persisted. 1t is said that the news of
this calamity threw the whole tribe into mourn
ing. Their remarkable size, their courage, and
their superior intelligence, gave them immense
Influence, which, greatly to their credit. was gen
orally eXerted on the side of humanity. Their
powerful interposition had saved many prisoners
from the stake. and had given a milder character

country. A chief of the same name was alive in
taat part of the country so late as 1892; but

Adam Poe recovered of his wounds, and lived
many years after his memorable conflict; but
never forgot the tremendous hug" which he sus-
tanned in the arms of Big Foot. He was the
grandfather of Adam Poe, present Assistant Agent
of the Book Concern.
The great loss sustained by the Wyandott ma
ton in the death of the Big Foot brothers created
an implacable hatred in every heart toward their
destroyers. Many an Indian malediction had been
poured out upon the head of Adam Poe, and many
a prize had been offered for his scalp. His place
of residence, which was on the west bank of the
Ohio river, at the mouth of Yellow creek, was
known to the Wyandotts. 1t seemed, however,
that none of the nation possessed sufficient cour-
age to encounter, single handed, this foe of the
Redman, whose strength was considered equal to
that OF Big Foot himself. At length, having de.
termined to wait no longer in seeking to be re-
venged of the death of their Goliath, the nation
made cnoice of their bravest warrior, in the person
of Rhon-yan-ness, one of their chiefs. Having
made all the preparations necessary for the ac-
compllshment of the fearful mission intrusted to
him by his nation, he started out on foot for the
residence of Poe.
After passing through the then wilderness OF
Ohio, he at length reached the creek, which
emptied into the Ohio, on the bank of which his
intended victim lived. No sooner, however, had
he placed his foot within the door of the brave
DackWoods hunter than he was received with the
utmost cordiality and friendship, while every
hospitality that the cabin afforded was, with true
pioneer generosity, rendered to the Indian guest.
when tHe lHe Tor retlflng TO rest had come, there
being but one room and one bed, Poe made a com
Portable pallet for the Indian on the floor by the
fire, after which he and his wife retired to rest,
without any suspicion whatever in regard to the
designs of the Indian. 1t was now a time of
peace, and the Indians, particularly the Wyan-
DOTS, were regarded as friendly. 1t was not long
till they both fell asleep, when Rhon-yan-ness rose

ly, with his tomahawk and scalpingknife, to the
bedside of the unconscious sleepers. Scarcely
had he arrived at the spot than the kindness of
his host flashed upon his mind. How" thought
he, can | perpetrate an act of so much cruelty
upon one who has taken me into his wig-wam,
and treated me with so much friendship"
The better feelings of his nature overcame him
and finding it impossible to commit an act which,
though it might bring honor to him from his
nation as the avenger of the death of Big Foot,
he could not nerve himself up to such a pitch of
desperateness as to obliterate all the gratitude of
his heart. Enemy as Poe had been to his nation.
yet he could not think of imbruing his hands in
his blood, and with these thoughts, he crept back

AMERICA ALL RIGHT

ROME. April l3-J. Pierpont Morgan called on Signor Rava. minister of fine arts, to inform him that he had noth. ing to do with the alleged purchase of seven vandykes, property of the Cat. taneo family of Genoa, He also paid his respects to Cardinal Merry del Val. Regarding the financial crisis in America, Mir. Morgan said:
 Tt is simply passing crisis and has no importance. One can call 1t small growing pains. Like precocious chil- dren, we have grown too fast, have de- veloped very rapidly and naturally suffer, but 1t is the effect of excessive prosperity.
 There is no sIowness in any produc- tive branch in America. Everything increases with astonishing activity. It is an enormous growth which no mi- nor crisis could stem for long. There is no reason to worry. Take no notice of congregations in the American press"

 What position of honor would you most like to hold?

 What do you consider the greatest vice?"

 The motives for choosing a given occupation are not many in number. Iwo-hfths chose because they like 1t pest, and One-siXth because they are best fitted for it. None admit that money determines their choice. though one-sixth feel it incumbent upon them 10 earn their living. Four or five chose because of the opportunity of- Tered for doing good, and about the same number for the sake of the self culture to be gained.'
 Almost three-fourths of the girls chose q friend as their ideal person." Ihe most popular girl was apparently the ideal person of nearly seveuty-fve per cent. The most popular virtue was honesty, having the votes of one third or the seventy. drunkenness re- ceived the most votes in answer to the question as to the worst vice In answer to the question as to whether the girls would rather he best loved or the best person, the large majority preferred to be the best loved.

 -Majjaialliano Roddaxso, who has been taking the treatment at the Pas teur institute in New York the past two week, because of being bitten on the hand by rabid dog about three weeks ago, is expected to arrive home on Monday. Roddaxso who was enl- ployed by Kelly the baker, was on his way to work one morning about three week ago when he was attacked and badly bitten in the hand by a mongrel cur. After the head of the dog had been sent to the New York institute and it was learned that the brute had the rabies, RoddaXso immediately made preparations to take the Pas teur treatment Dr Keeley accom- panied. Although the treatment has reduced the man considerably, he has stood it well.

Painting Under pIfieuItlss.

Painting Under Difficulties.
 A. A. Bousson is Russian painter of Arctic scenes. To produce his sketches he was compelled to make toilsome and hazardous journeys, during which he could only use char. coal and pastel. It was not possible, save in the spring, to use oil colors. and even then 1t was hard to mix them, the paints being frozen. Some of my sketches" fe says. T painted in the open air when 1t was bitterly cold. I had to put on fur gloves to hold the brush and work with rapid and energetic strokes. There were moments when my hands were frozen and refused service. my brush split ting with the cold. Yet I continued, having the ardent desire to fix on the canvas all those fantastic phenomena of the far north, so full of fascinating charm"

COUNTY HOMES
Children Confined VIII Not Be Taught Their Own Religion.

The present legislature is said tc be broadminded, but it would be an uphill job to furnish the proof be- fore an impartial jury, especially since the vote taken relative to coun- ty homes. in which the members, a majority of them at least, renewed their fealty to the law which takes children of one creed in charge and immediately proceeds to convert them to some other form of worship or let them grow up with no religious training at all. And yet you meet very smart folks who make no bones of stating that republicans are mora liberal than democrats. This may be true of the party in other places, but nobody who knows anything about the county homes of this state, and particularly our own, would make such a blunder.
