"Civilizina" Alaska"

DR.. E. Lester Jones. deputy COM
missioner Of fisheries, has submitted
a report to President Wilson and
Secretary Redfield, in which is en-
bodied scathing arraignment Of the
conduct Of the white man in Alaska
toward the natives. He makes whole
sale charges Of continuous violations
Of the liquor law, the laws to protect
fur bearing animals Of Alaska, and
the moral laws Of Christendom. Dr..
Jones has recently returned from
Alaska, where he had spent six
months, making survey Of the fish,
ing and fur seal industries, and
studying the administration Of ths
various islands. His conclusions are
entirely interesting, and in part, de-
cidedly sensational. and he sums up
with the recommendation that proper
regulation would be facilitated by
vesting full authority in the Depart
ment Of Commerce. He urges i'm
mediate steps looking toward protec-
ton Of the natives and rehabilita-
ton of their morals. He says
THE white mans lack Of care ami
regard for the sanctity of the natives
home is the crime Of Alaska. In
many sections the wife and daugh.
tiers are dishonored, and any resis-
lance from the husband, father or
brother is overcome by threats and
brides and liquor, until even the men
have all their best impulses deadened
and seem to be unnamed. Wher-
ever the white man has settled. the
saloon prevails, and that has had
more to do with the ruin Of the In
dian and the Aleut than all other
causes. In sections where the saloon
is not found, liquor reaches the ma
tives in the form of pay and bribes.'
Thus we see that the ways OF
civilization have not improved largely
in morality since the Indian tribes OF
the West were brought under its in
fuences." Today the white man as
sumes his burden" in the strange
places Of the earth and there. beyond
the reach and eye Of moral intelli-
gence. he invokes the "civilizing" in
fIuences of Intoxicating drinks and his
civilized knowledge of the baser in
fluences, which appeal to and de-
generate the illiterate mind. The
Alaskan native is being made good
Indian" in the same way that the
Apaches, the Shoshones, the Black
feet and the Sioux were made good
Indians by bad white men, and booze,
and graft. The innocent natives OF
Alaska are being exploited, outraged
and degenerated, under the eyes of
Christian civilization, principally be-
cause most of US are occupied with
our own selfish affairs, and are leav-
ing the chores OF the Almighty in the
hands of the devil.

House, Representative Humphrey OF
Washington. stated that there were
100000 idle in the country, and
this would be easily accepted as prob
able by anyone at all familiar with
the situation in various large cities,
numbering and mining districts. 1t is
somewhat amazing that the President
should declare that this vast army of
idle men are not hungry, and that
that they are in state Of mind"
and that business men have only
psychological" or imaginary troubles.
President Gompers of the American
Federation Of Labor has just stated:
From all over this land Of ours
come reports Of need. There are
great numbers Of unemployed. the
unknown men and women in the
breadlines Of our cities. These
people want work: they have hunted
desperately for work, but work has
been denied them"
The spirit Of independence from
Presidential dictation is growing
among Democrats in Congress.
Representative Tribble of Georgia.
speaking in the House on January 7,
said:
There are millions of laboring
men walking the streets. out Of
work during this serious depression.
Millions of our own native southern
American citizens are suffering and
in distress on account Of depression
of business-American citizens plead
ing for work and an opportunity to
support their dependent wives and
children. Let us not add to their
dependency. let us not add to their
misery. let us not add to their hunger,
but let us add something to their
comforts"
On the same day that pathetic
though vain. appeal for the unem-
ployed workmen was made by Il
southern Democrat, Representative
Madden Of Illinois. addressing the
Democrats in the House. said:
You have increased the imports
by your free trade policy; you have
decreased the exports; you have re-
Guced the revenue; you have taken
100000 workmen out of employ
ment; you have destroyed invest
ment, discouraged enterprise; you
have created chaos in the industrial
world from one end of the country
to the other because of your legisla-
ton which admits free into Ameri-
can ports the products Of foreign
labor"

weeks investigation of the condition
Of unemployed women in New York

This country stood fifth in the list.
The above figures are made on the
basis Of 2240 lbs to the ton. There
fore the production of beet sugar in
America for 1913, reckoning 1000 lbs.
to the ton would be 100000 tons.
The beet sugar industry had it's in
ception in Fance in 1872, and in Ger
many in 1885. In 1890 there were
only two factories in the United
States, both in California. In 1900
there were 80 factories in II different
states. Since 1900 up to and includ-
ing 1913, these 80 factories had all
been enlarged, A new factories had
ton of beet sugar had increased more
than 500 per cent. The great states
of Michigan, Colorado and California
were the leaders in production, while
Ohio. Wisconsin and Utah were close
seconds. In five other states a begin
ming had been made. When we real
ize that the six states above named
have an area 16 times that of the
State of Maine and times the area
of all New England We can we'll I'M
derstand the almost unlimited posi-
bilities Of the sugar business in this
country.
The inception and phenomenal
growth of the business from 1900 up
to and including 1913 was under Pro-
lection. Under Protection it would
have continued to grow and would
within fifty years have reached
colossal proportions.
But Democratic Congress, under
the domination Of Democratic
President enacted a near-free trade
tariff bill.
The dire results have been that Al
cane sugar mills have sold their ma
chinery in South America and have
abandoned their factories. Twenty
five per cent. of the beet sugar fac
tories have been closed. Ruin stares
the others in the face. The millions
of dollars invested have been shrunk-
en- to thousands, and thousands Of re-
. cruits have been forced to join the
army Of the unemployed. The United
States has been forced to quit the
sugar business. The Democrats have
given to foreigners this nice little
business of ours. amounting annually
to $75,000,000. This may be "psy-
Geological" but it is, nevertheless,
humiliating.
The obliteration of the sugar indus
try is but one chapter in the history
Of the destructive policies Of the
Democratic party.
