We believe, trurhfully, of what he has seen and suffered and so have a dozen or SO others who have undergone a like experience. Further, they have all told practically the same story which seems to prove that they are telling the truth. For ourselves we doubt not that they are telling the truth-and black and ugly truth 1t is.
 With so much testimony spread be- fore them, all showing that the asylum in question Is anything but what Is desirable as place of treatment for the insane, the people of Alaska are either utterly needless or wholly neartless If they fail to take some &C., tion toward persuading the government to make a change. The system of farming out the unfortunates is fin itself an iniquity, to be condemned and abhorred by all who have the least spark of human feeling and 1t Is a crying shame on the people of the ter ritory that they continue to allow 1t to endure.
 From all accounts the inmates of the Morningside asylum receive hardly better treatment than the average AL askan grants to his dog and yet we continue to allow the helpless human beings who have lived and worked with us, who have been our comrades and whom an unfortunate fate has overtaken. to rot out their existence bereft of all friendship. sympathy and are without hardly raising our voices in protests.

THE AMERICAN STRUGGLE.
(Harpers Masazine.)

America just now provides the great est exhibit the world has ever seen Of successful mediocrity
 There are no contented poor on this side of the Atlantic except in the back waters of the east. There Is no sin gle class content to recognize the in- tellectual or material superiority of the rest Everyone Is pushing onward and upward. The poor man, as we are told every day, may be rich tomorrow; the ignorant goes to night school and will learn; the drummer hopes to run the business for which he Is travelling; the hired man will own land as good as that he blows; the clerk will be a partner in the firm. Even in the uni- versailles no institutions like the fel-
 lowship of Oxford and Cambridge can exist. In America not even the scholar is willing to stop at such a position
 He must go on-or try to go on-as far as the rest. Never before has a nation exhibited so completely a spec tacle of millions of insects all swarm ing upward toward the light.
 This view may be optimism. l do not think so. For in nine hundred cases out of thousand the goal of all this striving is mediocrity. Your son nowadays does not hope to be president. He climbs toward a much lower round in the ladder. The labor CT wishes to reach the middle class. The middle class wishes to be richer.

One and all agree that the in- stitution Is nothing short of disgrace to the community which permits it to exist
 With some many witness offering eorroborative testimony as to the true chat the people of the territory have allowed themselves to be deceived by the occasional 'investigatlons"- are In reality not investigations at all which have been conducted at inter ly odious complaint, all of which have resulted in a report exonerating the illSiIAa 6GiiAc4lL anu lllhlNhA3hb N0dI thing was lovely.

Bob's remarkable stroke of fortune
called for a celebration, and his four
customers clamored that he squander
his first profits forthwith. Ordinarily
to his liking; but now he was dying to
tell Lorelei of his triumph, and, fearing
to trust himself with even one drink,
he escaped from his friends as soon as
possible. Thus it CHANGED that he ar
rived home sober.
1t was happy homecoming. Bob
was in a state of exaltation. He had
no desire to bind himself to Kurtz'
service for six months or for any other
period; nor had he the least thought Of
living up to his agreement until Lorelei
began to treat the matter seriously.
Then he objected blankly:
"Why, it was all right as joke, but
don't want to be tailor. There's no
romance in wooden goods"
"How much do you owe?' she asked.
REALLY, I've no idea. It's some
thing you don't have to remember
somebody always reminds you in plen-
ty of time, and then you borrow
enough to pay up"
Lets forget the romance and pay
up without borrowing. Remember you
have two families to support" Noting
that the idea of permanent employ
ment CALLED him, she added, craftily.
