of the day the GaffnevRoden eight

house of the territorial Legislature

was warmly supported by Senator
Henry Roden, who fathered the

proved by the house today.

JUNEAU, April 4-Today's ses-
sion of the house of representatives
of the territorial legislature was

measure was substituted for the
Gaffney -Roden bill which passed the
senate early this week after spec

Poden and Sutherland were the prin-
c pal participants. BESIDES the sub

great fight for the working men.

THE JAMESTOWN HOSPITAL.

The report of the state board of
control concerning the condition Of
the state hospital for the insane at
jamestown reveals a condition of
things which ought not to be permit
ted to exist a day longer than is alb
solutely necessary. The members Of
the board found the wards crowded,
patients who ought to be separated
being compelled to occupy the same
room, tuberculous patients lodged
with those in good physical health,
and various other conditions which
should not be permitted. All this. ac-
cording to the report. Il due to the
fact that the buildings 2 too small
for the demands on them. and the
crowding is unavoidable.
1t is clearly the duty Of the legis-
lature to provide whatever funds are
necessary to remedy this condition.
In what way 1t is to be remedied is a
matter for serious consideration. but
hat it must be ren1edied In some way

,iment of ordinary humanity demands
hat proper care be taken Of those
unfortunates NO are incapable OF
taking proper care Of themselves.
Those Of our people who are Of IN
sound mind must be maintained where
they will be as comfortable as their
condition Will permit, where their
physical health will not suffer by rea-
son Of unsanitary conditions such as
crowding inevitably creates. and
where they will be given the best pos
sible opportunities for recovery II re-

MARRYING on sMALn INCOME.

Washington Post: Should girls
marry on $4,000 a year? The ques-
ton is raised by an address recently
made by Miss Angenette Perry. who
for more than a year has been collect
ing statements from young women in
New York. many Of whom are just out
OF college. Miss Perry says:
asked groups Of girls what they
considered the necessary income to
start life. and was Mortified to find
that the average was $4,000. Now.
II the modern girl is going to insist
on starting on a $4,000 income. this
will simply delay the marriage day.
which would be a regrettahle thing.
Not at all. not at all. The trouble
with the young ONE interviewed
by Miss Perry is that they are too
conservative. If tl-ey are really mod
ern girls. they will not be willing to
marry on $4,000 a year. 1t is easy
enough for a young couple to live on
$4,000 or $1,000 a year. but it is inn
possible for most girls who demand
$4,000 to keep within that income.
How are they going to have an au-
tomobile. chauffeur. maid. town and
country house, and a skye terrier on
$4,000 a year? II can't he done.
Why, their own dressmaker's bill
comes to $4,000, and the automobile
land chauffeur cost another $4,000 at
least. and the town house would cost
{ 4 nnh o~1 $hA oo,,Ntr,. honco 60 SnA
There's s,2,5oo right off the reel.
The girl. who think they would
need $4,000 a year had better stick
to their fathers. The law against
cruel and unusual punishment should
be invoked to protect any innocent
young girl who labors under the de-
fusion that she could marry comfort
ably on $4,000 annually. 1t would
not be right to let her try it. 1,
would mean endless h%ardships to
which she has never been accus-
toned.
It Is true that there are thousands
OF young women who marry young
men earning only sig a week. but
their problem is far simpler. They
don't have to pay the exorbitant SAL
airy Of a chauffeur. and do not have
to compete with other girls. who wear
imported models" Let those who
feel that they IA be happy on So
a week proceed to the altar with bells
ringing. and may they "be happy eve
after" but may Providence protect
the poor young things who would take
a chance on $4,000 a year. They
are inviting disaster.

THE INDIAN SCANDAL.

If the charges that have been
made are true. or il a reasonable per-
centage Of them are true, there has
been unearthed in connection with
the management Of Indian affairs one
OF the worst scandals that has beer
found in connection with that depart
ment for a good many years. It IS
charged that Indian agents and 9TH
er government employees have sys-
retnatically robbed the Indians under
their charge for years. have stolen
from them thousands Of acres Of val
liable timber lands in Minnesota. and
have otherwise cheated them out of
what Justly belonged to them.
The United States government has
always intended to deal fairly with
the Indians. 1t has been singularly
unsuccessful in its efforts. The his
tory Of u relations with the prim-
tive tribes is clouded by a long list
Of scandals great aud small. and the
record is anything but a pleasant one
to look over.
There has been a good deal Of SYM
pathy wasted on the Indian on the
ground that civilization has driven
the game from his hunting grounds
and made it impossible for him to
live in the country which had for Gen.
turtles belonged to him and his an
cestors. In reality the Indian had
no more right to keep white people
out Of this country than the buffalo
had. Both occupied the land. and
neither Of them did anything with II
except to exist upon it. But the In
dian was a human being, and civilized
men owed it to him and to themselve.
to see to it that when they found /,
necessary to bring about conditions
which would make it impossible fol
the Indian to oam at will W. the
land as he had done in the past. he
should be compensated for what he
had lost. and should be given a fai,
opportunity to adapt himself to the
new conditions. II adaptation were
possible for him. We did recognize
his possession Of certain proprietor,
rights. and our government under.
took to protect him in those rights
But rascally agents. low-lived squav
men, hangers on Of all kinds, and
greedy men who sought to grab al
outdoors have conspired to victimizs
the Indian at every turn. The pres.
ent expose simply adds another chap.
ter to many that disgrace the his.
tory of our relations with the In,
dian tribes.

When the farmer IS planning on
setting out trees, and this is a good
time to make such plans. let him by
all means arrange to keep the trees
away from the highway. A grove in
variably catches the snow and piles
up big drifts which make the roads
impossible. and for weeks after the
surrounding highway is dry as a bone
he road in the vicinity Of a grove is
a mudhole. When the contour Of the
land will permit It the ideal arrange
ment seems to be to have groves
planted in the center of the section.
and then each quarter has its own
wood lot. and the four groves COM
bined make quite a little forest.

Reflections of a Bachelor
New York Press,

You can jolly more out Of people
than you can club out of them.
All a girl cares about. when she
falls down skating. is if there are no
holes in her stockings.
Sometimes a man can get his sal.
airy raised without his family taking
more OF it than it amounts to.
Having a husband is a great help
to a woman for the way it teaches
her she must do things for herself.
Just because there are as good fish
in the sea as have been caught is no
sign you have a chance on earth to
catch them.

France has elected a new president,
but there was no excitement over the
election. 1t is possible to arouse more
interest in the election Of a ward al
derman or town supervisor in this
country than vas to be found in all
France over the election Of a presi-
dent of the republic. One reason. Of
course, is that the president Of France
is a %fgurehead and little more.

A writer in a popular magazine said
last week that there are in the world
three trillion acres Of timber land.
one-third of which lie in Canada. The
estimator has evidently let his pencil
run away with him. The total area

The writer. therefore. credits Canada
with something like 400 times as
much timber land as her total area
