Majority Of Americans
Lacking In Polite
ness
BY FREDERICK c. SUMICHRAST,
Former Professor of French
at Harvard

LIVERY European notices the re-
grettable lack of manners in
the United States. He is
fairly certain to be exasperated by
the rudeness Of the majority of
people with whom he comes in con-
tact; TO BE MADDENED BY
THE TOTAL ABSENCE OF PO-
LIKENESS ON THE PART OF
PERSONS WHOSE POSITIONS
WOULD IN A EUROPEAN
COUNTRY INSURE CIVILITY,
IF NOT CORDIALITY.
Not all Americans are absolutely
mannerless. There are degrees, and
the well bred American is the peer
of any high bred European.
BUT 1T Is TOO PAINFULLY THE
FACT. THAT THIS SORT OF Ex-
CEPTION is NOT MUCH MET
WITH IN DAILY LIFE. TAKEN ALL
THE AVERAGE AMERi-
GAN is MANNERLEss.

| Aucauy large uuIuUcIS VI animals arc
quartered at the grounds of the North
lwest Livestock Show to enter into the
|competition which opens Monday,
November 2oth to continue to Decem-
| Der 4th-the week of, this big annual
exhibition, which is held at Lewiston
under the auspices Of the Northwest
Livestock Association. The early
arrival taken into consideration with
the entry books Of Secretary Smith,
leave no doubt that the livestock as
sembled at Lewiston this year will rep
resent higher standard than has been
the case in the past, while the number
of animals on display will also establish
a new record. The present week in
Lewiston has been an exceptionally
busy one, the fact indicating the
growing activities of an exhibition OF
a type OF the Northwest Livestock
Show. To make adequate arrange
ments for the accommodation Of APP
proximately 5000 animals, essentially
means much work and during the past
few days scores of people have been
employed at the live stock show
grounds. The Northwest Livestock
Show from its outset attracted the sup
port OF leading stockmen Of the North
west and as consequence the best
animals from the best farmers were
taken to the exhibition with the result |
that the show instantly gained almost
national reorganization. To win at the |
Northwest Livestock Show was dis
tinction coveted by the leading breed |
ing farms.
This year the ordinarily high stand
ard of the show is to be accumulated |
by exhibits from noted breeders who |
have had their animals at the San
Francisco Worlds exposition, and
number of prize winners are to come
to Lewiston. Throughout the North
west, all reports indicate an unpre
cedented interest in the show and the
Northwest Livestock Association is pre-
pairing to receive the unusual number
of exhibitors, visitors and spectators
The Association meetings are held
during the week of the show and the
program will introduce a number OF
distinguished men including the Gov
ernors Of the states of Idaho, Washing
ton and Montana, and the heads Of the
Colleges OF these COM
The Northwest Live
stock Show is now recognized as a
really educational institution, free from
the fictitious elements of the custom I,
ary fair, and it is knowledge Of that
TACT that has brought to it the prestige
and influence of the leading men OF
the Northwest, while its reputation has
gained such momentum, that this year
exhibits are to be received from points
Is far distant as Wisconsin. The rail-
'oads have granted special rates and
hese lines anticipate an unprecedent-
ID travel into Lewiston the week OF

THE EUROPEAN WAR

The European war situation is
showing very little change from
that Of a week ago in important
gains by either the Germans or
the Allies along the western front
of the war, and with the Balkan
states in and active the bitterest
fighting for the next few weeks
will probably be in that territory.
While Bulgaria is attempting to
make a way for the German
armies through the Balkan states
the Allies are making strenuous
efforts to defeat Turkey before
material German aid can reach
her and they have made notable
gains, although at great cost to
themselves, within the past few
days. Both the Serbians and
Montenegrins are offering a stub
born resistance to their Austro-
German and Bulgarian adver-
saries, and the Teutonic allies may
find themselves finally baked in
their attempt to reach the sea in
time to be of any aid to the
Turks, if at all. Bulgarian gains
have been surprisingly small,
while the allies have occupied sew
eral positions of great stragetic
imnOrtance. the most notable be-
ing Strumitza and Enos. Russia
has not yet struck on this i'm;
mediate front and observers pre-
dict that she has surprise up
her sleeve for the Central Pow
ers when she does take the ag-
gressive' here. On the eastern
front the Russian forces are hold
ing the attacking Germans, with
the prospect of putting them on
the defensive before many days.

A GOOD STORY SPOILED.

A great calamity has befallen
the G. o. p. tariff agitators as a
result Of the exposure Of one OF
their favorite arguments by a
cold blooded historian.
It has always been favorite
stunt of the high tariff advocate
when in tight place to quote
Abe Lincoln on the tariff, and
this is about the way Abe was
supposed to have said it:
II do not know much about the
tariff, but l know this much.
When we buy the manufactured
goods abroad we get the goods
and the manufacturer gets the
money. When we buy the man
ufactured goods at home we get
both the goods and the money.
When an American paid $20 for
steel rails to a British manufac-
turer, America had the steel and
England the 500. But when he
paid $40 for the steel to an Amer
lean manufacturer, America had
both the steel and the $780,"
Now come Prof. Albert Bushell
Hart of Harvard University, and
writing under the head: Ameri-
can Historical Liars" shows con-
clusively that Mr.. Lincoln did
not say these words and clinches
his proof with the following:
"But beyond the possibility Of
verifying the two extracts, there
is the additional difficulty that
Abraham Lincoln died April Is,
1865, and, according to Swank,
(who was an authority on the
subject> the first steel rail was

ALASKA JUDGE
PROVES TO Be
A Good CUP I'd
TROUBLES OF A NATIVE FATHER
ARE SETTLED IN
COURT.

! The floating court" is an institu-
ton founded by the United States
government for administering judg-
ment in the far North, says an
of the unusual problems that con
fronted Capt. A. J. Henderson. one
of the first judges of the court, is
told by Mr.. Walter Noble Burns
in the Wide World magazine:
One day, at Point Hope, there
appeared before the court held on
the Thetis, Captain Henderson s
ship, an old Eskimo and his wife.
They We're accompanied by their
young men, who We're suitors for
her hand. In choicest Eskimo that
sounded like series of explosions
of vocal dynamite, the venerable
father poured voluble tale into
the eais of the Interpreter.
This man, he says" began the in
leIpTelef, lneSe TWO 1eIldrS want
this gal for wife. One fellar he of
fers a rifle, ten pound whalebone
six walrus tusk, a dog team and
sled. The other Teller, he give
kayak, two reindeer, a bearskin and
six fox skin. This gal the old mans
only daughter He old and he want
good trade But he not know which
he best take. He say maybe you
tell him."
Captain Henderson is no Cupid
he stands six feet two and weighs
$50 pounds-but he determined to
essay the role of Cupid's first assist
ant
You love this girl?" he asked
one sutton.
Yes" replied the interpreter "he
love her"
And do you love herr" the cap
tain asked the other
Yes he love her too"
The captain looked at the girl,
who was pretty little thing. some
thing over four feet high, with coal
black hair plastered down over her
temples and shoe black, roguish
eyes. Let no one doubt the vital
beauty Of Eskimo maids in the flush
of youth and health.
Here said the captain to the
girl, (which one of these men do
you want?"
The interpreter put the question.
The maidens eyes grew brighter,
her cheeks a redder crimson, and
coy smile wreathed her lips She
stepped over to one of the young
men unhesitatingly and touched him
on the arm.
This one she said, and there
was no need for the Interpreter to
translate
"All right" said the captain, with
a roar of laughter, take him"
And he married them on the spot
Straight from the ship back to the vii
lage the newly-wedded couple padded
to set up housekeeping to live hap
PLY, no doubt, ever afterward The
brides father touched off a few
more explosions Of vocal dynamite
into the interpreters ear
He says" declared the interpre-
ter to Captain Henderson, ''he salts

koyukuk 10 Rich.
Eric Johnson, while at Golovin
with the last mail from the Outside,
met several Koyuk miners who
had returned to that point for the
purpose of securing supplies and
says that one and all speak highly
of the prospects in the Koyuk sec
ton. The men with whom Johnson
discussed the new strike are al
Wilson, Carl Jepsen and William
Raglan all of whom are more or less
we'll known. Johnson says that he
was told that all Indications pointed
to a permanent camp being estab-
lished and the prospects were fair
wherever found. 1t was also stated
that the pay apparently extended
into the benches which still further
adds to the outlook. AS an indica-
ton OF the value of the pay gravel,
Jepsen said that he had taken ten
pans from different dumps, and OBJ
tanned an average value per pan of
six cents. The gold is described
as heavy and, although of a rather
dark color, is apparently of good
quality. Between thirty and forty
men are at present in the district
and the majority are reported to
have found prospects. Wallace
Porter has struck good pay on a
claim owned by his brother-in-law
and from all indications the pay
also runs into the adjoining bench.
Johnson states that nearly every
one who is foot-loose is preparing

because Of their being reQuisitioned
to carry supplies to the new camp
which is located on Dime creek.
Paul Kjegstad is reported to be
on his way in from Bluff having
met johnson night before last near
Chinik.
Johnson gives the distance from
Chinik to Dime creek as between
forty and fifty miles by the present
trail AS the Koyuk is navigable
by light draught boats to a point
some distance above the mouth OF
the creek on which the pay has
been found. 1t is probable that II
will be the route most used during
the summer season. The mouth OF
the Koyuk is about seventy miles
from Chinik and the distance up
stream to the strike Is estimated
at about forty-five miles.-Nome Elk
