missioner and Puts John
Heidleman Over Crew of
Nine Wagons.

The board of public works has de-
cided that it will be best to segregate
the work of the street department by
eliminating the hauling of ashes from
the duties of the street commissioner.
TO this end we would advise you
that competent man will be put in
charge Of the teamsters hauling trash
from the alleys and made responsible
to the board you will therefore con-
fine your efforts to the care of the
streets. sewers and alley repairs and
such other work as may come within
the province of your department.
This act of the board is not to be
considered as reflection on your
work but to relieve you of what seems
to us to be an overload

While tho daily business of l:fc and the numerous activitios of men art generally regarded as most snrious matters. thcrc is a hint. occasionally in the public press and elsewhere. that our civilization Is a hugo joke: that we havo a standard of action that we have placed high up on pedestal for all the world to see and use it only for tho purpose of period icaily dusting it of.
 It is probably true that the personal equation. the selfish considerations oi men. have had . deal to do with the temporary failure of many of our ideals. No doubt many havc held cer- thin high purposes. and yet have un- consciously gone on with the business cf improving their personal condi- tiens by . wholly different standard os principle. Observing this. the cynic hsstens to his work. and our civiltza- ton thus becomes Q joke.
 There is no denying thet promise ard performance theory and practice the ideal and the real, do not com . n,only follow parallel lines and that ttere is a great deal of self -decep- tion practiced by the average man both in his dealings with himself and with his fellowman.
 The cynic laughs at the orator In congress. his ponderous platitudes his tonnes of verbiage. his fair-soundins ieeaiism and his padded and grandi' csc periods; he laughs because he has compared the orators promise with his performances.
 The cynic laughs at the citizen at his mass meeting; at the thunderous applause that follows the idealist ora tor: at the high-soundins pronuncia- mento, and the failures of perform arce that SO often follow:
 The cynic laughs at the mask Of idealism because he sees only the bars face of performance as 1t is; he laughs because he regards man as a child who plays with tops that will soon bo broken and put away.
 The lesson of the cynic is that we sbuid be making moro progress we did not aim 90 high and hit the target oftener. The lesson of the cynic is that humanity should be honest with itself and attempt that only which Is possible within our limita- tie ms; to attempt that only which is DC ssible of performance by beings whose soaring idtals are limited by the conditions of . worikaday world.

An interesting paragraph is found in & report just issued on the work of the bureau of education for the na- tives of Alaska. It tells of the found- ins of the village of Hydahburg on the west coast of Prince of Wales sound.
 This Is . communal village. like Metlakatia. but the Indians are the Alaska, Hydahs who formerly lived in scattered villages. After two years their two principal concerns. a trad ing company and . lumber mill. both nctive enterprises. show succession conduct.
 The remarkable thing about this Is the rise of 6 people in the scale of civilization in a half century from head hunting savagery to communism.
 One of the early settlers of whidby island. and the first collector of cus- t,ns on Puget sound. Col. Ebey. who has many descendants still living. was killed by one of these tribes and his head was carried away as a trophy.
 Tn common with the tribes of tho Kwakiutl family the Hydahs practiced csnnibaiism. This was A rite. how ever the hamatsa degree in the secret SC ciety or order which united all the northern Indians in . more or less common brotherhood.
 These head-hunttng cannibalistic natives preyed upon all the fatheads of the south. They excelled the salish in mental and physical vigor and are surviving longer in the unequal strug- gle with civilization.
 On the one side there is but fec bie survival with no advancement. On tho other there has been progress and a marked capacity for rsad1ustment to changing environment.
 In the light of history. the age-old conflicts of savagery. with the ac- ccmpanying degradation and debauch- cry, the rise of various portions of the T5ydah and Tsimpsian tribes really 's a most remarkable anthropological henomenon.--P. L

The manufacturing of gold was recently made the subject for discus sion in an ably written article by a mining engineer and appeared in a late issue of Q mining journal. In that article it was shown that the atten- tion of the capital and investors, seek inl a safe and sane investment. had ft. some time been attracted to the mining of low grade ores and low grade placer ground. European cao- ital has especially entered this field. and the best paying mines of the world. of which the Treadwell mine is an example. illustrates what Is meant by manufacturing gold. Large mills capable of handling a tonnage commensurate with the size of the lode and with new and improved methods of treatment gold is ex- tracted on 0 manufacturing basis. the same as the big iron and steel plants turn out a manufactured product from crude Iron ore. At present no quarts mines has been developed in Seward peninsula, but that there are >.yast bodies of low grade ore is well known end that they will receive attention in the near future there can be no doubt. Investigations have. however. shown that the body of low grade placer ground. which can be handled by dredgers exists all around us. The modern gold dredge has reduced plac- CT mining to q manufacturing basis as will be seen from their operation in California Australia, Montana and elsewhere.
 The mammoth mines of the Rand in South Africa, the Homestake in South Dakota and the Treadwell prop cities in Alaska are examples of mod err aichema.
 The interesting letter of J. D. Win ter published in yesterdays NUGGET irdicate that Seward peninsula is zoe ins to see some large developments in the near future, and that mining oi. . large scale is but q matter of time-the vast bodies of low grade placer ground, will in few years produce more gold than was produced when the rich creek claims and old beach lines were most productive. That there exists large bodies of low grade ground in and around Anvil and King mf untain Is well known. that they are richer in gold. can be more easily and cheaply worked than the Trsadwell kw grade ores is also we'll known.
