results from this, without having
added a mental deficiency stamp of
a psychOpathic laboratory.
DR.. HicksOn cannot deny that
these boys and girls he so labels are
the poor. It is the poor that are sent
to the psychopathic laboratory. From
the morals court go only women who
cannot secure bonds and buy their
freedom and therefore must submit
to anything they are told; from the
boys court go only the boys who are
not out on bond and most frequently
the homeless lad, or the lad who
comes from a home where there are
none of the finer things.
The thing we need is not to have a
table of statistics on how many boys
and girls and men and women are
mentally below par; we need to know
what to do to develop them; we need
to know what made them what they
are, and we need to know most of
all how to prevent our future boys
and girls from being mentally defec-
tive.
Until the psychopathic laboratory
tell us that and insists that we shall
make provision for the mentally de-
fectiYe we have, and take preventive
measures economically and otherwise
against a continuance Of this defec-
tfveness, the psychopathic laboratory
is merely luxury supported by the
city to amass statistics adding to the
stigma already attached to poverty.

INBOUND PART OF R. R. PRICE
SUPREME COURT OF DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA DEALS WITH
 ALASKA NORTHERN MATTER

WASHINGTON, June 19.-The supreme court of the District of Columbia has refused to direct the impounding in a local bank of one fifth of the purchase price of the Al aska Northern to reimburse the Shedd Company, John Thompson and other Chicago bondholders. The impOund- ing was urged by John Cotton, the government prosecutor, who also de- mands a receiver. The court, how ever, impounded one-fftheenth of the purchase price subject to the order of the court. The plaintiffs were permit ted to submit the names of more bond holders who are entitled to sums from the price paid for the railroad. Cot ton declares that in certain contin- gencies the contract between the gov ernment and the Canadians might be regarded as ended but the whole mat ter is expected to be easily adjusted before the time comes for the pay ment for the road.

NEW MINING LAW SELLS
 MANY ALASKA REVIEWS.

The number of copies of the mining law sent to the public was entirely in- adequate apparently. The infOrma- ton has got abroad that the mining law was printed in the first issue of The All-Alaska Review and the Re- view is being sent for now from all quarters in this district by men who say they want it for the copy of the law particularly. Representative w. W. Getchell, the author of the mining law who is now in Seward, says thou sands of copies of the law were run off the press for the legislature but still the supply is not sufficient. As it looks now the entire first issue of the Review will soon be exhausted.
