First to Discover Real
Color of Negro's Skin

Marcello MaIpigi, of Bologna, was the
first to discover that the outside layer
of the skin, known as the epidermis, of
the negro is as white as that Of white
man. The coIoring matter which gives
him his dark color Is contained in a
deeper layer just at the point where
the ep:dermis Joins the dernlis, or
fibrous skin, beneath. This deeper layer
is named for the discoverer, being still
called the Mapighian layer. He was
born in 1913.

ALAsKANs DISHEARTENED

While watching the sports and ex-
arcises of the day on the Fourth, at
Chitina, an old sourdough who has
been in Alaska for the past fourteen
years was heard to remark: FROM
an American and patriotic standpoint
Chitina is doing the proper thing to-
day, but from the Alaskan's point of
view, there is but little encourage
ment for us in the whoop it up for
our government which has treated us
worse than any foreign country
would ever dream of doing. Five
years ago when Alaska was first
beginning to receive outside recog-
milton of her wonderful resources,
I'd have given half my poke any time
toward celebration on Independ-
ence day, for we were nearly all good
loyal Americans then and thought
that Alaska would be one of the most
favored of Uncle Sans territories
but as time goes on we find that our
government officials are not salts
fled with even half the poke, but
have been taking it all and have so
The Chitina leader., 1911-07-08

bottled up our resources that the
pokes are now entirely empty. With
the recent political decisions it's
about two to one bet that we old
timers who have hung on so long ex-
pecting favorable legislation each
year. Will either have to go back to
the dog team and hunt new placer
fields, or give up in despair and pull
out to some other country whose
government gives some inducements
to the frontiersmen.'
Sounds rather pessimistic. doesn't
it? Looking at it from his side of
the board. however. the old sour
dough has just cause for anything
but patriotic feeling and there are
hundreds of Alaskans today who
really feel the same as he. We can
no more help feeling the resentment
against an unjust government, to
one of her richest territories, than
we can to feel proud of our fore
fathers achievements in 1875, so
many Alaskans are not to be blamed
if they show a lack of enthusiasm or
patriotic spirit the past few years on
Independence day.
