Are Opposed to
 the Ancient Rites

It is said that the younger genera, tion of natives in Aux village will pc, rition Governor Clark to use the in. auence of his office for the purpose of discouraging the practices of the elders of the tribe an account of wlich was recently published in The Daily Empire.
 The younger people are very sensj. tive on this subject and manifested their displeasure in a signed state. ment appearing in The Daily Empire on the day following the disclosures. The young people very naturally in this enlightened age want a cessa- tion of savage rites and customs and the dancing and revelry accompany ing such ceremonies.
 The governor states that he has not yet been applied to for assist. aace in the matter, but 1t is under. stood generally that a petition is be- ing prepared.

Money From
 Forest Reserves

Governor Clark has had advices from the Secretary of Agriculture, in, forming him that the last agricultur. al appropriation bill passed by Con. gress carried provision that an ad. ditionaI ten per cenum of all moneys received from national forest reserves should be expended for the building and maintenance of roads and trails within such respective forest re, serves.
 The same communication advised the Governor that under this provis. ion there was at the present time available for use in the Alaska forest reserve for the purposes mentioned the sum Of $4.67S.4S.
 The Secretary of Commerce and Labor sought Gov. Clark's advice as to the best method of getting the most benefit out of this money.
 The governor replied by advising that the department take the matter up with the Alaska Road Commission. Through the provision of this act it is believed that the roads running through mining and agricultural sec ton of the forest reserves will re- ceiye material benefit.

 WEBSTER FREE

VALDEZ. Dec. St-A special term of court for this division was opened yesterday by Judge Thomas R. Lyons, of Juneau. The most important cases to be tried are those known as the Fairbanks bank cases" in which Capt. E. T. Barnttte and others are involved,
 The indictments against Falcon Jos lin, of Seattle and Fairbanks, and E. l.. Webster, former Fairbanks man, but now a resident of Seattle, were dismissed. Joslin and Webster were indicted on charges of publishing false reports of the financial stand ing of the Washington.Alaska bank, of Fairbanks which failed in 1911 for a large sum.
 The work of impanelling a jury in the case against Barnette was begun in the afternoon.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 8.-Breezy and debonnair as ever Uncle Joe Cannon, of Illinois, was in his place in the House yesterday. He takes his defeat for reelection to Congress philosophically, and he jokingly said that though he would be absent in the next Congress he would not be forgotten.
 Another long time.member of Con gress who will be missed when taps are sounded for the present Congress is John Dalzell, of Pittsburg, who was Speaker Cannon's stalwart aide on the committee on rules when the gen. tlemen from Illinois yielded the gay. el in the House. Dalzell failed of nomination in the primaries of his district last summer.
 A. Mitchell Palmer, of the Twenty, sixth Congressional District, is likely to occupy a prominent place in the councils of the Democratic admins. tration in the House perhaps, or may. be as a member of President Wilson's cabinet. Palmer's democracy is of

the pronounced type; he is a strong tariff reformer although representing Pennsylvania district in Congress. He was an ardent Wilson supporter in the Baltimore convention, where he was one of the most active Of the floor leaders for the New Jersey can. didate.
 James R. Mann, the Republican leader popularly known as "Jim," in and out of the House, is as con. spicuous and pulchritudinous as ever. Though he was reelected by his dis. trict last month he will not have the support from his home state, in the Sixy.third Congress. that he has had heretofore. Many of the Republican contingent in Congress from Illinois have been replaced by Democrats.
 The Democratic representatives in the next Congress from Northern states will be substantially increased, and the so.called influence of South. ern Democrats in the House is likely to be less marked than in the Sixty second Congress-

WAR
 ON RACE SUICIDE

On November 20 at a given signal United States marshals in about 70 cities throughout the country, swept down on the unsuspecting malpracti tioners of those places bearing war rants for the arrest of those charged with criminal practices.
 For more than seven months 89O inspectors Of the post office depart ment have been working on nation wide investigation.
 Under the direction of the attor, ney.general at Washington, the drag, net was spread over the country reaching from Pittsburg to Seattle in an attempt to serve 17S indictments against physicians, druggists and mid wives in a national effort to stop the use of the mails for the furtherance of criminal medical practice.
 In California twenty.seven indict- ments, IS of which were issued by the grand jury sitting in San Fran. cisco. were put in the hands of the federal officers. Oakland is credited with holding eight of the 27 against whom indictments had been found. Other California cities harboring this class of criminals are Los Angeles Petaluma, San Jose, Sacramento, Fresno and Glendale.
 Seattle stood directly in the path of the descending wrath and many persons charged with the vicious prac. tice were gathered in.
 Portland, Oregon, did not escape and several arrests were made there on the indictments issued.
 In Spokane the dragnet caught about the same number as those found in Portland
 In every instance the charge is mis- use of the mails to solicit criminal medical practice or to dispose of med icine or instruments connected with such practice.
 The matter of collecting the mass of evidence necessary to get con viction rested with the small army of post office inspectors. In many cases the inspectors paid personal visits to men and women supected of being en- gagged in the nefarious calling. In other instances the inspectors com municated with suspected individuals using decoy letters and under ficti- tious names asked for the methods employed and the prices charged. Fi- nancial consideration were found to range from s up to $500. In most cases those arrested gave bail for their appearance.
 The evening of the day of the great raid Postmaster-General Hitch cock issued the following statement:
 "The work of the postofIice inspect ors today is the continuation of the crusade instituted more than two years ago against the fraudulent and unlawful use of the mails. In that comparatively brief time we have wiped out of existence concerns that have mulcted the people of this coun- try out of more than $1OO,OOO,OOO by frauds perpetrated through the use of the mails, and the courts have sent many of the promoters of the fraudu- lent schemes to the penitentiary, where they now are serving time.
 "The wide publicity given to the arrests made today will do more to put an end to this particular sort of criminality than any number of prae. tically unknown prosecutions of wide. ly separated cases"

A copy of the Yukon Press, pub, lished Jan 1, 1894. is a curiosity which has been handed the Skagway Daily Alaskan for filing among our archives. It was originally published at Fort Adams at the point where Fort Yukon is now established, and from the amount of religious matter it contained was doubtless edited by missionary. The names of Bottles, Beaumont, McQuesten and other noted sourdoughs appear in it's ad. yertisiug columns. The Press is no longer published.
