he unsavory fact contained in this -.rgument-that one must be a crim- nal d malefactor in order to merit the attention of the governmental ma- chine.
 Time will doubtless alter this view out at present it remains-a most dis gusting thing to contemplate.
 However, it Is a crying shame that a person must be branded with the stigma of the criminal and technically classed with characters under the pro- scription of the law simply because some unfortunate condition or eireum- stance has placed them in situation
 there they must, in the absence of 1ther sources of relief, look to the gov arnment for physical attention

City utfleial Paper
NOME, ALASKA, DEC. 2, 1915.


 one of the most disgusting features of .ae present dispensation of affairs in Alaska is that necessity which com peIs d person who is unfortunately af- nicted through sickness or Restitution to lace d criminal cnarge before the representatives of the government are au.Aor44ed to grant them relief, no nlaoter how desperate their situation.
 hXampies of this are constantly oc- ,1r..ns III al parts of the territory. .sOw .i Is p4ospeelor who has been s4ueen4s s,Iichen down with sickness in his remote cabin in the wilderness o. .,o.44e un4Or.una.e who has suffered injury IesuIting in lncapaciation. Again 4l l4ay De some one wno has gone broke wlI.e irving 70 uo something for him self and has neither friends or labor to s4s.iaIn nIm. n either case it is the same; If the unfortunate one has no Ir4enus 10 whom he may turn for help ue must either remain bereft of all cale or comfort or else suffer himself 10 be technically classed with black legs and criminals in order to receive needed relief from the government.
 The latest case of this character to come to light is that of woman, resiaent of Tana, who was recently founa guilty of vagrancy and com mI..ed to jail in default of a fine of two hundred and fifty dollars imposed by the United States commissioner of .ne precinct.
 This woman had done nothing to merit such action. Her only offense against the dignity of the law and the peace of the community was that she was in destitute circumstances-nc money, no friends and in a delicate state of health.
 For this she is written down in the government as a vagrant; was com pelled to enter an institution maintained by the government for the incarcera- ton of law breakers and criminals: {: was virtually placed in the same cate Sory as the criminal malefactor and the disturber of the public peace. All this was for her personal good, of course-and, if fact, a desperate ex- peaient to meet an equally desperate ru parent alternative.
 The woman was in need of help and this was the only way, in the ab- sence of other help, that she could be relieved and cared for. The officer who took her into custody and the judge who sentenced her were not to blame Tor their part in the pathetic incident They were doubtless filled with aver tion for the thing they were compelled to do in the name of the law and they would probably have summed the con- temptible necessity which drove them to such ends had relief been possible by any other means. No blame at taches to them or to any other official who is compelled to like measures. In all truth there Is no fault attaches to any one in such cases.
 The government is not logically bound to even recognize such affairs, according to our present way of view ing the relations of the government and the citizen. It is not the business of the government to cater to the physical needs of the individual. This is the accepted view and it is doubt less futile to quarrel with it at the present time although one may dislike

was able to leave for his home in

Mr.. Britt had been suffering from

the trouble became so acute some

was big surprise to both the pa
tient and the attending physician.
