TAKES ISSUE WITH
 DOCTOR FOSTER
(Continued from page t)

tGontlnued from page 1 chronic complaint of all practice ing physicians in Alaska is that it is painfully healthy" and Alaska will some day be one <Of the most popular health resorts in the north.
 As to the statement of Dr. Eos ter that the main cause of tubcr- culoSis is the extreme cold, etc. l might say that my experience during all these years lead me to believe that the main cause of the disease here among the natives is not the climate, but the lack of nOurishment and chronic starva- tion together with the unSanitary habits of the natives. This sub jrct of the sanitary condition of natives" is one that needs com potent physicians with matured experience and full knowledge of existing conditions tO cope with il and produce satisfactory re- suits.
 Time and space limit these re- marks upon such an important subject, but l must say that such sweeping statements, wherein the white population are concerned, cannot and will not be considered by AlaskanS other than as a libel upon truth and an injustice against the vigorous, healthy eli mate of Alaska. Yours truly,
 DAVID H. SLEEM.

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 1912:
WE ARE AN EASY" LOT.

people in the United States. Rob- ert Sharp chief inspector. of the postoffice department reports that concerns put out of business in 1911 for fraudulent use of the mails had gathered in no less than SIT, 100000. Most of it pre- sumably came from persons that could ill afford to waste their mOney--persons that still have a notion you can get something for nothing, and have another fool ish notion that men are philan- thrOpic enough to wish to distrib- ute very valuable property at cut prices.
 One would suppose that before this time the activity of the post office department against schemes that involve the use of the mails lo dcfraud would cause nearly everybody in the United States to he wary and to investigate care fully before investing. The activ- ity has saved the people much, but if 1t ceased the probability is that. schemes to dcfraud by use of the mails would spring up rap- idly again. All have not been suppressed yet. When one scheme has been put down the sharps un- dertakc to formulate a new one just beyond reach of the postal laws.
 The chief inspector suggests legislation to protect the public against schemes just on the bor- derland between legitimate and criminal undertakings. That is desirable, though a very difri- cult thing. Laws cannot possibly keep up with tbn ingenuity of men, but laws can set forth cer- tain principles and the courts can apply those principles in the de- termination of the quality of the conduct of men.
 The case is good deal like that of the Sherman antitrust law. Critics of the supreme court de- cisions c0nsiruing the law say that congress should define just what Is a lawful and what an un- lawful combination. In ihis way they would get rid of Inc doctrine of r"aSonablrnrsS. No sooner, however, would the proposed amendments Dc in force than clry- "r men would be found undcrlak- ing to 'rircumvcni the law. They would devise plan not spccilical- ly prohibited, and, after all, the courts would probably have to decide whether the restraint of trade involved in certain business transactions was reasonable or not.
 Chief Inspector Sharp, of the pOStOfrir" department, finds the result of years work develops the fact that the manipulalors who use the mails "arr a dis tincL class of criminals, some of them moving in the highest sO- cIal and business circles, but nearly all having more or less af- filiation with deviscrs of schemes or enterprises of iIlcgitinatc character, in which they are not known as promoters"
 Remarkable, isn't it, how easy We fall for" the tricks fixed uD to separate Us from our money. At the bottom of the success of such schemes probably is the hu- man desire to get something big with liilIc or no effort. The mas tcrs in Inc use of the mails to de- fraud are great students of hu- man maIurC.- Tacoma Trihunp-

 Must Hang

Montgomery. March o-(Special.) Adams, the negro who shot and killed Policeman T. N Berry, of the Montgom- cry police department, in October l9lo was today for the second time convicted and sentenced to be hanged for this crime. The jury who heard the case was out more than fifteen hours, having four hours after their retirement asked thas they be discharged on the grounds that they were hopelessly divided. Judge Gas ton Gunter, superior judge of the city court, before whom the case was tried. re- fused to dismiss the jury, and about 12 hours later the jury returned to the court with verdict of murder in the first de- gree. Immediately Judge Gunter an- nounced that he would later in the week set the date for the negros execution.
 An appeal will be taken by Adams counsel to the supreme court, and t is probable that the case will not reach that tribunal before the fall term of court.
