TREATY GIVES ALASKA
NATIVES RIGHT TO VOTE.
Esquimsu Members of Greek Church
Protected by Their Agreement
With Russia
Associated Press Special.

Associated Press Special.
Tacoma, Wash, April 6.-Natives
of Alaska who are members of the
Greek church are American citizens
and may vote, according to the trea-
ty made transferring Alaska to the
United States. Other natives who
have become Americanized, Mt are
not members of the orthodox church,
cannot vote This statement, says
the juneau Alaskan, is made by w.
A. Kelly, the first government tea
cher appointed by the United States
in Alaska, who has spent twenty
five years there as teacher and mis-
sonary
Kelly went to Alaska in 1885 on
the steamer Idaho, which sailed from
Portland once month He has made
a deep study of the natives and has
converted the Thinglct tongue into
written language. He says the
granting of the franchise to natives
who bow in religious allegiance to
the Greek pope was brought about
by a clever bit of diplomacy on the
part of Russian officials who repre-
sented their country in the drawing
up of the treaty.
Some of the natives of the ortho-
dox church voted in the last delegate
election Several hundred did not,
although Kelly believes these will
come gradually to understand their
privilege. They are at present who'll
ly separate from American life by
tradition, beliefs and sympathy.
Kelly's announcement has caused
surprise in Alaska. where the facts
stated were not previously generally
known

NEW HORSE AND MULE BARNS
Entire Change in the system of Ar
rangements Along Avenue.


Manager King of the stockyards
is back from a trip 10 Chicago, where
he spent last week in conference
with the officials of the Stockyards
company In regard to rebuilding the
horse and mule barns that We're de-
stroyed in the late fire. He brings
back word that the work of recon
struction viii begin as soon as few
details of the plan Of building can
be worked out. Mr.. King prepared
plans for a general scheme Of con
struction, which We're approved, and
these are now in the hands of archi-
tects in Chicago, who are working
out the details of arrangement.
The plan as prepared and APPROX
ed will make the south side of Elk
change avenue look very unlike it
did before the fire. There will be
solid wall of concrete or brick, from
| Marine creek to the hog pens, with
| a wide entrance midway in it. This
| entrance is to a street running north
and south, and the barns are to
| front this street. Seven such barns
are to be built. All of the space COW
| cred by the old barns will be in
cluded in the new construction, and
little more. BY means of a better
arrangement of the stalls. a great
many more horses and mules can be
housed than was possible in the old
barns
This will give the Fort Worth
stockyards the best arrangement; for
its horse and mule division of any
in the country 1t is the result of a
study of the barns at different pla-
ces, and a combination of the most
| practical features in each. When the
new buildings are completed. the
growing Texas market will have am
pie accommodation for this branch
Of its business, and the south side
Of Exchange avenue will not suffer
| by comparison with the north side,
in the matter of architectural al
| tractiveness
/ It is expected that the Chicago
architects will have the details
worked out and the work of rebuild
ing will begin in few weeks

democratic slogan, "the most good

the Light has endeavored to new
to the line, let the chips fall where
they may" In following such a poll
cy, and that has been especially the
policy of the paper for the past six
years. it is but natural that there are
to be found at times those who are
not fully in accord with it's views and
who are out of sympathy with its

for the position of the paper in such

conditions that cause even a single
divergence, but attempting to stand
