 Away up the coast the natives have
 been taught to raise vegetables and
 are said to be rather successful at the
 work. Down in the states the Flat
 head Indians are about to be put on irrigated lands as an experiment, and
 really there is no reason why the Es-
 kimos should not have their minds
 turned to such pursuits.
 The land around Nome is capable of good cultivation. That has been pro-
 ven by white people and right today there are patches of gardens wit''n the city limits-even within 100 yards of Front street-that ought to be suf-
 ficient to remove the fallacy that veg
 etable cannot be grown here.
 The government spends now some-
 thing like $20O.O00 for the education and tare of natives in Alaska. There
 are some so,0O0 natives in the terri tory. Many of these natives live we'll
 by many different meti eds but s1:nc are usually of the hand to mouth ciass tI at starve when the Gsh or the game have an off season. Could this $?00.- 900 be used to teach the natives agri- culture and give them something upon which they could fall back in times oi stress? . "A kGAk nR nNy could be used to establish large gar" den in each large native commun ty. This ranch could be cultivated by white agriculturists in the pay of the government and could be made the best training college that can ever be supplied for the natives unless they change their mode of life 80 radical ly that they will be different people ai- together.
 There can hardly be any doubt that the natives at present are being train- ed along useless lines in some re- spects. To convert them to the ways of white people is an impossibility and to lead them half way would be 2 crying shame if not a crime. We have seen in Nome where semi civilization leads the native. especially the women. How much better 1t would be to have
 them separated altogether from the whites. in districts where they could
 b, trained to the soil. Let them frat
 be educated to live and be self reliant
 in their own villages that might be prosperous and beautiful. Then let them get book learning. if they will. but at present their education In such matters seems to be nothing but a preparatory course to prostitution and the penitentiary.

The theatre of a war between Amer
 lea and Japan would be the Pacific ocean. divisble into six spheres of coT:- bat. The Philippines. Hawaii. Alaska, Washington, Oregon and California.
 The disinclination of this republic to render adequate military and maya, protection to it's possessions in the Pacific gives to Japan not only temp orary command of the entire oceac, but time enough for the temporary character of its control to pass into permanency. Unless the United States esta blishes sufficient naval bases in It's four quarters of the Pacific. mak- ing them military secure against land attack, and maintains in the Pacific fleets as much superior to the entire navy of Japan as adverse strategic conditions demand, the United States will lose. in the beginning what she will never be able to regain during the continuation of the war-the entire American littoral on the Pacific.
 Under the present military system the republic could not mobilize in any one place field army of nineteen thousand regular soldiers in the same period of time that Japan could as- semble. ready to take the field. half q million veteran troops. For the United States to enlist, equip and to train to the same degree of efficiency similar force would require not less than three years. k If Japan were without sea transports equal to the needs of her armies, the Pacific coast and the American pro ]. vinces in the Pacific would be beyond the sphere of Japanese enterprise. On the other hand. if the United States possessed a standing army of two mill lion men, but no other means of mili- tary transportation than exist at the present time. this republic could not conduct a single campaign beyond the frontiers of the Union.
 Unfortunately. the United statea
 does not possess field army of even
 fifty thousand men. while Japan haa
 such complete means of oceanic trans-
 portation that shs can move her vast
 armies to any portion of the Paciis
 with greater ease than Napoleon

Official Paper
NOME, ALASKA, AUGUST 1s, 1s1a

In the history of the United States only nine federal officials have been impeached. One was governor An- drew Johnson. There was one sec- retary of war. one senator and the rest were judges. Of the nine only two were found guilty by the senate and these were judges.
 The impeachment of Governor Sui- ger is one that will probably go down in history as an event of historic im- portance owing to the greatness of the state over which he presided. This will be so whether Sulzer Is found guilty or not.
 The likelihood is that Sulzer will be found guilty if he really committed the acts of which he is accused as the majority of the senate are unfrienly. During the recent trial of Judge Coh- alan, who is a member of Tammany and what Is called Tammany judge. the senate members voted in his favor and the joint judiciary com- mittee was unanimous in dismissing the charges against him in spite of the fact that the Hearst papers and Sulzer wanted him found guilty.
 This would go to show that Sulzer can hardly expect much from parti- san considerations that might save him were his party in power. Indeed. the vote against Cohalan in the lower house was much smaller than the vote for Sulzerr and this would seem to prove that the house is much more strongly opposed to Sulzer than 1t was to the Tammany official. Verify. things look blue for the governor.

STATE SUPERiNTENDENT VISITS
SCHOOLS.

State superintendent Grace Shep-
herd who went from here at the
close OF the institute TO attend Il
similar gathering at Nezperce, re
turned here last Saturday and remain
ed until Thursday morning. She spent
two days inspecting the schools of
the surrounding country in company
with superintendent Glanville, and
is pronounced in her praises of the
conditions of the same, and speaks
most complimentary of the plans and
work of Mr.. Glanville for the devel-
opment of the county schools. She
says the Idaho county schools rank
with the best country schools in
the state. Miss Shepherd was taken
with the plans and general construc-
tion of the new school house at Milt
Springs, which Mr.. Glanville assisted
in designing and to some extent sup
ervising, and took the plan and de-
tailed cost of construction of same.
She pronounced 1t one of the best
country schools in the state, and will
recommend 1t as model to other
districts which contemplate building.

League Will Be Organized
for Promotion of Home
Loyalty.

The Wednesday evening dinner at
the Imperial Hotel this week, at
which between forty and fifty of our
citizens (ladies and gentlemen) gath
cred for the discussion of the vital
topic of buying at home. was a de-
cidedly interesting and profitable
meeting. The pros and cons of this
much mooted subject were represented
and handled without gloves, every
body who desired giving free express
sion to their views.
1t would be impossible to give the
verbatim speeches made, but we will
let it be known that the ladies took
a very active part in the discussions
and that they easily held their own
with the sterner sex when it came
to forensic ability and fixed opinions.
The decision was unanimously reached
at the conclusion of the dinner to Or
ganize a Buy at Home" league at
once and get down to business.

Chester Arnold, the local plumber,

pounds of galvanized iron for the

plumbing is now roughed in ready for
use as soon as the building is enclos-

Eleven Cars From Grange.
vile, Rest From Other
Prairie Points.

The stock shipments from the
Prairies and contiguous sections are
keeping up remarkably we'll, in spite
of the continued reports that the
supply is fast diminishing under the
generally prevailing good prices.
Last Friday twenty-five carloads
went out from the Prairie. Eleven
cars went from Grangeville, and the
remaining fourteen from the other
railroad points on the Prairie. George
Poe, the Salmon river sheepman, ship
ped out seven cars of sheep, Johnnie
Baer three cars and Cy Overman one
carload of hogs. The remaining four
teen cars went from the other Prairie
points and included principally cattle
and hogs.
On Wednesday of this week Spen-
Ger Peterson from the Sarvice Flats
country, shipped SIX carloads of sheer
from this place and Seth Jones the
we'll known cattleman of the White
bird section, will ship four cars of
fat cattle.
There is probably no section in the
northwest where more stock of all
classes are raised and shipped than
Camas Prairie and the great Salmon
river section and other contiguous
country.

The magnificent 100000 school
structure, of which Grangeville is
justly proud, is fast reaching that
stage of completion that guarantees
1t against all bad weather delays and
assures its completion ready for oc-
cupancy some time the first of the
year. That it will be one of the most
complete and modern school buildings
outside of state institutions, in the
entire state there is no doubt.
The building is 1SSRx12S, in di-
mensions, including the two wings
and is three stories high. The ground
floor will be occupied with the man
ual training department at the south
end and the domestic science de-
partment at the north side, and the
gymnasium.
Second floor will contain seven
grade rooms, superintendent office
and library, each room having a large
cloak room, ventilated in the most
approved manner and auditorium
Third floor will contain nine rooms
to be occupied by the high school
with four class rooms, prin-
cipal's room and possibly two of the
grades, with two rooms devoted to
laboratory work. Special attention
will be given to this department,
which will be equipped with the best
that goes. The library which con
tains over 5000 volumes, has been
pronounced by way-up educators and
literary visitors as one of the best
they have seen anywhere, and unsur-
passed in the state.
Auditorium, Gymnasium and Shower
Baths.
/ On the basement floor has been
constructed a fine gymnasium, 40x70
feet, with balcony surrounding same
for the accommodation of $50 persons.
On the north and south are the en-
frances to the separate dressing
rooms for the boys and girls, with
shower baths connected and supplied
with hot and cold water.
Above the gymnasium is the splen-
did auditorium, with elevated floor
convenient and we'll ventilated gal
lery, and one of the neatest stages
for theatricals imaginable. The audi
torium will have a seating capacity
of a little less than 600. This will
be made a center for literary, social
and other community and school func
tions, and If the present plans are
