REINDEER INDUSTRY AIDS

United States bureau of education in a
bulletin just issued

Alaska in 1892. when the bureau of
education imported from Siberia III
reindeer. The object of the importa-
ton. according to the bulletin. was to
furnish a source Of supply for food and
clothing to the Eskimos in the vicinity
of Bering strait. This Importation was
continued until 1902, and total of
1,2SO reindeer were brought from
Siberia. There are now 47,266 reindeer
distributed among sixtytwo herds, and
30,532 of these are owned by the ma
tiveS.
This industry has given to the
Alaskan Eskimo not only food and
clothing, but a means of transporta-
ton superior to dog teams. Instead of
being nomadic hunters eking out pre-
carious existence on the vast untim-

sell or otherwise dispose of a female
reindeer to any person other than a
native of Alaska" This is done. the
bulletin states, Test white men deprive
the natives of their reindeer and de-
stroy this great native industry which
the bureau of education has in the last
i twenty years built up and fostered."
The reindeer service is an integral
part of the educational system of the

baseball and the National league, and
not the Federal league, is the sufferer,
because the Federal league has played

today and four others will follow it.
That doesn't look like peace. does it?'
Gilmore said he had never met Gov.

said and arranged for q meeting with
Tener at which the contract squabbles
were to be threshed out. The meeting
