NOME, ALASKA, APRIL fs. 1915.
THE EXPENSE OF CHARITY.

The New York American, comment ing on the work of organized charities, voices the statement that not more than twenty per cent of the money raised by public contributions for char itable purposes is devoted to the actual duty intended by the donors In other words. only one-fifth of the total amount contributed reaches those who are in need and the remaining four fifths is ultimately eaten up by the hurdensome expense of distribution.
 While this statement may seem an exaggeration it is readily confirmed through the reports issued at intervals by the various charitable associations and societies themselves. In the large cities of America the matter of distri- outing aims is in the hands of people whose primary idea is that business methods are the first requities to charity. As a consequence the whole matter of relieving the wants of the poor becomes secondary to the method pursued, which, in the majority of cases. is so involved in red tape and requires, in addition to an extensive board of directors, a series of district overseers. managers, Investigating of ficers and clerical forces of such di- mensions that one is really forced to wonder that even the pitiable fifth men, toned ultimately finds it's way to the unfortunate destitute
 Also. considering the vast deal of investigating" and reporting re-
 quired before the ponderous charity that the poor are able to survive pend- ing the doleing out of such pittance as must be necessary to the end that the twenty per cent mentioned will suffice to meet the demand. While there is no gainsaying the good intent of the char itably inclined ones who voluntarily and without compensation assume the duties of directing the distribution of charitable contributions, it is decidedly apparent that the wishes of those who give of their plenty to relieve the suf- fering of the unfortunate and distressed are not being entirely met under a dis tributing method which requires eighty cents in order to adequately disburse twenty. There is clearly something wrong with such a system and we are convinced that no small portion of the fault lies with the people who habit ually donate money for charitable pur- poses. The larger portion of those who are numbered among the regular contributors to charitable associations arc rarely interested in the final dis posal of the fund to which they con tribute beyond that it be directed in q general way to relieving the wants of the unfortunate and the means or me- thods employed to that end are seldom

 has done his full duty 10 suffering hu

 end enters not into his calculations. He

 bility and is usually content to let the
 matter rest there without bothering
 himself further about the ways ar
 means of distribution. While the
 kindly spirit ammating such giVers
 cannot be questioned it would seem that it is none the less a somewhat dubious charitabilty The mere hand ing over of a sum of money with the expectation that it. or some of it. will eventually reach the desired object, is in a measure like casting a farthing into the street in the hope that some needy one will find it. While it is ad- mitted that few of those who are in a position to give have the time ar in to personally administer their charities, it is apparent that d trihe of attention on their part as to the man ner of disposal would probably have al wholesome effect in reducing the me thods of the ch2ritahle associations to simpler lines and with for better TO- suits as far as the poor are concerned.

That some vandal has been robbins caches in the Salchaket district for several years is the statement of Jos Enos, who returned to Fairbanks from 1 the upper river recently. and who de- clares that his cabin was footed and the building destroyed by fire. Enos is cannot leave grub and property on
 Redmond creek from year to year with out having it taken from him and is anxious to see somebody prosecuted for the offenses already committed In speaking of the matter EnoS said: "For' the last three years someone has made lii his business to enter my cabin on Redmond creek and take grub and other supplies without my permission. Think ing that if l locked my cabin il would
 put a stop to this practice. I put a
 strong chain and paddock on the door, trance had been made, and that many things were taken. Early in October I
 went to my cabin again, and this time found that the door had not been forced open. There was q small coat of snow on the ground, enough to con
 vince me that there would be no danger
 from forest fires. then started on q
 hunting trip and was greatly surprised
 upon returning to find my cabin in
 ashes. l searched through the ruins
 and the paddock and chain were in such
 condition that I was convinced that
 they had been broken by human hands.
 l was also unable to find some articles
 which could not have been destroyed by

 ported another cabin on the claim above
