THE STUMP

The Stump Speakers of the

to jump on the Advocate and its

But like the party the whiskey
was so weak that they could
drink whole short pint and not
feel it, or at least the stir that
you had was by such few that
scarcel ? sny one knew that you
was having a rally. After you
had sent runers with whiskey
and urged the followers Of the
disgrnntled kind to come in not
over 30 responded. Do not be-
lieve that all that was in the an.

lows who once yelled until their

of Lincoln, Grant and Garfield.
And the Advocate will still be

the good old Republican party
and will be standing by ITS prin-

On Monday the 22nd, our Bull
Moose friends took occasion to go
after the Advocate in great shape.
They predicted that this paper would
have all kinds of lies about them in
this issue. No my God! MOI The
Advocate does not have to tell any
lies on you, the truth is too bad to
be put in print. We did not aim to
say anything about the little meet
ing at all, but you started it, so
here goes. look out, you have shown
us no mercy and you shall receive
none. Who would have believed
that two ministers OF the Gospel,
men who claim that they have been
called by the Great God to show
fallen man the Christ, to point ont
the pathway from earth to heaven,
would put. or cause to be put, the
bottle to his neighbours lips to make
him drunken?

A reindeer station and a school for the instruction of natives of AL aska in the art of wood carving and the manufacture of commercial toys, fancy furniture, etc, is one of the future possibilities for Skag- way, if the efforts now being made by David N. Hukill materialize, and from the ncouragement he has received from various influential sources, 1t is highly probable his endeavors will be crowned with success.
 The location of reindeer sta tion at White Pass City, on the old trail over the summit, waas Mir. Hu- kills original idea, for the reason that the terrific volcanic eruption two years ago in the country to the westward, where the govern ment reindeer station is now To- cated, so covered the whole coun- try there about with volcanic ash,. in a vast section many inches deep that 1t has since been possible for tba reindeer ia forage only Buffic- iently on the open ranges to bare ly keep them alive. In the winter reindeer moss constitutes almost the sole food of these animals in high northern attitudes, where 1t some times attains the height of 12 inch es. It's nutritiVe properties de- pend chiefly on the gelatinous or starchy matter of which it is large ly composed It's taste is slightly pungent and acrid, and when boiled 1t forms a jelly possessing nutri- tive and tonic properties, and is sometimes eaten by man, being pow dered and mixed with flour. This moss is now covered up to great extent; and where not so covered so inpregnated with volcanic ash' that a recent inspection showed that the gritty substance has, in a number of instances, worn the teeth of the reindeer almost entirely away With this in mind, Mir. Hukill, in the spring of 1912, filed on the land at White Pass city, after which he wrote to Hon. James Wickersham, delegate to congress from Alaska of his action, aud asked Mir. Wick ersham's assistance in getting Ithe government reindeer station to the westward, transferred to Skagway' and pointed out the immeasurable superiority of the location in every way to the enc iH whl"h the ani- mals are now kept.
 Before writing to MT. Wickersham MT. Hukill, who iS a toy maker by trade, conceived the notion that in- asmuch as the reindeer station would necessari' be under govern ment supervision, an Indian school having for it's primary object the in- struction of the natives in his own handicraft and in the art of hand carving and engraving and thu man. ufacture of fancy furniture, where by they could become independent and self supporting workers, would fit in with his original scheme to nicity, and in his letter he all so incorporated this idea.
