Judge Duke E. Stubbs, United States commissioner on the lower kuskokwim river, arrived in the city last Wednesday afternoon from Georgetown, where he had been called to the bedside of Mrs. Anesla Fredericks, wife of George Fredericks, the trader at that plac. Mrs. Fredericks was in the last stages of tuberculosis, and passed away on February 12, few days after the arrival of Mir Stubbs The deceased was a native of Alaska about B years of age and leaves husband and four children, Her remains will be taken to Russian Mis- sion, on the Kuskokwim river, for burial. MT. Stubbs' errand to this city at this time was mdae at the request of MT. Fredericks who wished him to telegraph the sad in telligence to St. Michael, where relatives re- side

VESSEL BEING CONSTRUCTED
 FOR KUSKOKWIM ROUTE

A letter just received by Duke E. Stubbs from 8 steamboat man now in Seattle glves the information that the Bender Brothers, the vessel which has been on the Seattle Bethel run, has made her last trip to the Kuskokwim, and incloses 8 newspaper clip ping regarding the new steam schooner which is being built for that run. It IS as follows:
 ''Constructon of three-mast schooner, costing s50,000, and especially designed to meet the requirements of the Seattle -kus- kokwim river route, was definitely decided on recently by Captain Omar J. Humphrey of Seattle and associates. L. E. Geary, na- val architect will draw the plans for the vessel, which will be ready to depart from Seattle May l5 on her first voyage to the North. Accommodations will be provided for forty frst-class passengers, while the cargo capacity will total 600 tons dead weight. She will make three or four voy ages between Seattle and the Kuskokwim each season.
 'The schooner will have length of 140 feet and beam of 30 feet Her draft will be exceptionally shallow because of the con ditions that prevail in the Kuskokwim dis trct. The river and the delta at its mouth are very shallow, and it IS foregone con- clusion that the vessel will ground occa sionally The shallow draft will offset this possibility to a large extent. At the same time the plans call for the construction of 8 vessel of powerful build, 50 that she will run no risk of damage when she touches bottom.
 "As indicated, the schooner will engage in the passenger and freight service between Seattle and the kuskokwim. She will be equipped with engines powerful enough to give her speed of nine knots, and in ad- dition will have a fairly large sail spread.
 Humphrey and his associates have had long experience in Alaska transportation and trading, and are well qualified for making a complete success of the venture. Trade re- lations between Seattle and the kuskokwlm district have shown a substantial develop ment in recent years and local merchants now have a good market there.
 Captain Walter Tim, we'll known as the master of the schooner Harold Blekum, will have command of the new vessel. Since he brought the vessel south from the Aleu- tian islands last fall in the teeth of tremen- dous gales he has been recognized as mas ter of exceptional ability"

LIBERAL PEACE TERMS

LONDON, Jan. 8-That the return of peace may prove even more calamltous to industry than was the outbreak of the war was suggested by Professor Sidney Webb in lecture on "The Terms of Peace" at the opening of the London School of Eco monies.
 I've have survived the outbreak of war, " he said, with amazingly little economic distress. The question now is whether, at the coming of peace, we shall be able to take the steps necessary to prevent the terms of peace working out in misery and distress in hundreds of thousands of house. holds If we are to do so the first of the terms of peace, from the economic point of view, must be: No disbandment of the army If men have jobs to go to, or are willing to take the risk, let them go; but there must be nobody turned out until they are likely to be absorbed in industry"
 As to terms of peace, Professor Webb counseled moderation. England would do well," he urged, mot to look for any in demnity, for indemnities have a habit of doing those who exact them no good at all. Belgium, of course, must be rehahilitated. We should hope to make a peace which would leave the fee without undue embit- torment or humiliation. Humiliation is a most expensive luxury for victor to inn pose upon a vanquished enemy It does not pay to have an enblttered enemy in the world

NATIVES OF YUKON
 ARE NOT TEMPERED
Dawson NeWs(

John Hawksley, superintendent of Indian affairs for Yukon territory, recently received a letter from the Teslin country stating that the dire effects of the European war on the fur market are being felt in that region by the Indians. The writer states that the Indians find the prices offered them for furs so low they scarcely can af- ford to trap, and that the meager returns will not permit them to earn enough to continue living on the white mans grub. They have to forego such luxuries as flour, sugar and possibly tea and tobacco. Re quests are made for contributions from the government.
 Mir. Hawksley has had a wide experience in this country with Indians, covering so- journ of twenty seven years, and under stands the Indian nature thoroughly. lie has decided that the natives do not need the white mans luxuries, and that they are much more healthy and happy when in the hills hustling for their food, as they did be- fore the whites came and that they are much more thrifty when thrown on their own resources than when stall-fed on gov ernment rations.
 In accordance with this deduction, Mir EldWhSley IS uot solIi6 'o Aush oh eAPe,i ton into the Tesln with bonbons or dough nuts, nor even the ingredients for bannocks. He says, however, that the natives will be assisted with an ample allowance of am munition and that they must do the rest He has applied the same rigid rule at other points in the Yukon since taking charge. At Moosehide, near Dawson, where many h. dians once received rations regularly, all now have to earn their own way with the ex- ception of helpless native woman of 80 years. One buck appeared this week and asked for rations. He was given cartridges and told to make for band of caribou which was reported in the hills. He has made tracks, and if he gets any bakery luxuries this year he will have to convert some of the results of the chase into cash. The government pays out about $25, 900 annually for assistance to Indians of the Yukon, and Mir Hawksley is trying to divert it, he says, into more permanent benefits for them.

Protest Against Prohibition Bill

The Cordova Chamber of Commerce has passed and forwarded to the national cap ital resolution protesting against the pas sage by congress of any legislation providing for the prohibition of the sale of liquor in Alaska, unless the people of the territory shall by a majoriyt vote express their ap- proval of such law The resolutions re- cite that bill has been introduced in con- gress providing for prohibition in the Terri tory of Alaska, and that the people of Alaska feel that, as American citizens, they are entitled to share to some extent in the passage of the laws that affect them; that in those states where the prohibition ques- ton has been raised it has always been settled by the vote of the people They respectfully petition congress that the people of Alaska be extended the same privilege and rights granted the people of the states on the prohibition question, and that no prohibitory law shall be valid in Alaska unless the people of Alaska, by majority vote approve the same.

ALASKA CHRISTMAS
 DESCRIBED IN SEATTLE
Seattle Post -Intelligencerl

Christmas is a great time for the chil- dren in Alaska" said Joseph Johnson of Nome, who was at the Frye yesterday. The first thought of an Alaskan at this time IS for the youngster, and all the efforts ot the older people are bent on making the day a great one for them.
 '"They go into it decidedly on com munity basis" he continued "A little while before Christmas everybody along creek is struck for dollar or two for the Christ mas celebration. Iditarod does the busl- ness up about as brown as any, l think There the kids are gathered from all along the creeks to the social hall which IS the Arctic Brotherhood hall in Iditarod. There is Christmas tree, decorated with garlands and string of popcorn and plenty of things to eat as we'll But the best part of it all Is Santa Claus. Santa Claus brings the gifts to the children. He comes to the hall in a sleigh, and the sleigh is drawn by reindeer. When 1 was kid myself used to have books to read about Santa Claus and the wonderful reindeer team that he drove from the North Pole, and the big pack of toys that he carried and how he came down the chimneys, though l admit that I used to wonder how he brought himself and his pack with him down the chimney at my home, which was quite small. In Alaska all that is reality, and Santa drives up in his sleigh to the jingle of bells and hauls his stuff into the hall, where all the kids are waiting He does everything that he is reputed to do but come down the chimney. And then the gifts are parceled out and every one of the youngster gets some. That's the beauty of the whole thing. Nobody is left out"
