NOT THE RIGHT SPIRIT

The action Of the steamship companies in raising the freight tariff between Juneau and Seattle again will not set well with the people of this city nor else where in Alaska. And the people are reasonable. There was general acQuesence in the contention that the old Sl rate was too low in view of the general raise in freight rates everywhere and the cost Of doing business The demand for ships to engage m foreign trade created a temptation to companies en- gaged in the coastwise trade sell their crat or 10 send them into the ransoCeanic traffic And this de- mand came at a time when the Alaska trade was growing to such an extent that to meet it, and give the people the service their interests required Alas sells at a big price However, there general sur prise when the freight tariff increased 90 per cent The raise regarded as larger by Tar than the exegencies of the case warranted But now comes another raise Of $1 tOn-matng total advance or 75 per cent the freight rates within less than Tour months from notice that there was to be an advance
 Alaska probably produces more tonnage Tor ships than any other country in the world of equal popua tion Practically everything that is eaten. worn or used in Alaska has Co come to in ships. Freight tariffs reach everyone in this country There ls none who does not immediately feel the effect of an ad- vance in freight charges The fifty per cent raise Of April 1st cost the communities of Juneau Douglas and Thane thousands of dollars weekly It is porticu business men and others had made all their plans Tor expansion to meet the demands of fast developing country and the additional expense of doing business caused by the advance freight tariffs, had not been taken into account in the planning. Now comes TUT
 her addition Of another 25 per cent to the amount that the people previously had 10 pay out for Teights
 The feeling in Alaska is general that the trans pcrtaton companies are not showing the right spirit of cooperation in Alaskan development

THE OLD TREADwELL GROUP

While the rcople Of Juneau and the other Gas tineau Channel towns enthused over the Ge'e'op' 1uent of the new mines in this section of Alaska and in the development that is being planned for other properties i is refreshing now and again to consider the actual working Of the reliable old IreadweH group. which for so many years was the mains'ay 9p5 backbone of this mining and commercial center. This old mine-and 1t is proper to refer to it as a mine. though there are actually three mines in the roup-probaby the most famous gold producer on the American continent has been grinding away for near lv third of a century and for the last decade ana

MISSIONARY WOUNDED BY A
CHINESE BRIGAND.

We all know that the recent presi-
dent Of China is now known as
Emperor and has mounted the royal
throne. Unfortunately some of the
Chinese have seized this time to
evince renewed lawlessness. Bishop
Rayssac, p. r. NJ, Of SWatoW, writes
III q recent letter:
In consequence CT the political a9i-
tatiOn following the change in the
form OF government, the times are
troubled. In this country every
political upset is followed by an out
burst OF brigandage. The outskirts
of Swatow are haunted by robber
bands. One of my missionaries, FIR:
ENenne, has fallen a victim to these
outlaws. He was leaving his district
tol come to Swatow, when he was
attacked and seriously wounded. A
bullet pierced his lung, and though
hee was promptly conveyed here for
care, he is not yet out of danger.
We arc praying that he may be saved
10 us.
Il am trying hard to keep up the
regular work of the missions, but it
is almost wholly upon the Catholics
Of the United States upon whom /
rely"

it by Driver Frederick j.. C%ollinson,
who is engaged on ambulance work at
the front:
AS YOU granted me my wish BY
msertin&'my last letter III the STRAIT
lord Express, | trust that this letter
may lie OF some interest tt YOU. My
sole idea i'll writing this is to try and
impress people at home how faithful
the Catholic priests are to their duty.
Although have been brought up
IS a strict Protestant, | must plainly
| express that | have never seen o.
heard OF such heroism as these abD&s
show. They practically fight among
themselves 10 be able to so into the
first line OF trenches, and when the
wounded are put in our ambulance
and are beyond aid the priests will
suffer any Inconvenience to be able
to pray by their side white we are
tearing along on u GRAND of mercy.
They come for a few days rest from
the trenches, and whenever they
meet me, ALWAYS a cheerful and
brave phrase comes from their lips.
Most Of them are in soldiers clothes,
and by the Manly way they work
one would never believe that they
had held such a high rank in private
life. | have never seen one OF them
show any signs of WEAKNESS.
when have q puncture or engine
trouble, they are the first to have
their hands black. My opinion of
them is more than I can express.
While writing this there are w Of
them washing q bloody ambulance
down, with coats Off and buckets in
hand. One Of them, being an old
man, is putting and blowing, yet he
is singing q song which ! cannot I'M
dCrst&nd. While all this is going on
there is q boom, boom, boom Of
the heavy artillery. the ping OF thn
rife and three men are manning q
mitTallcusC on a Taube which is how
crinG OveT the lines. Yet these brave
men work day by day without q
1inch, or, when they are hurt, with
out crSnG or a curse. | trust that
this letter viii not bore YOU, but my
opinion OF the Catholic priest viii
always be OF the highest, although
my religion will never change from
Protestant"

EIGHTEEN DOLLARS FOR PRES
BYTERY REPAIRS.

This little story from Father
Raphael, Of AcharaDakam, India, will
perhaps appeal 10 the sympathy Of
some OF our generous readers:
Il am an a&ed native priest Of the
Pondicherry mission, and my bishop
has just sent me to Acharapakam,
where I will have much work to DO
catGb3ishiG| 3 chapel and opening
schools Tor tln neoYhytes. am not
Hch; what little money came to me
! spcnt il myt former district, never
tholesa I carried with me here a
supply of courage and g0od intentions,
which the years have not robbed me
Of.
When ! asked my bishop for cigh,
teen dollars to he spent in repairins
the preebytcry here, he replied that
the hard times would not allow him
to send ne even this small sum.
My reason for wanting to improve
the house is because it is very damp,
and even IN india rheumatism pursues
us when We are old.
4 I'M moi accustomed TO beg, but
my benefactops may be assured that
old FIR. Raphael will pray for them
very sincerely. if they care to help
him."

Poor w%retches, this is why they are
trallicked in and sold at high prices.
The men must bring the dowry, con
sisting i'll food or good stuffs, salt and
~saucepans. These last objects are
particularly coveted, and pans of all
sizes and an immense number of
bottles Of tafia are demanded. With
the exception of a few Christians the
men nearly all have more than one
wife and the chieftains have many.
when a girl comes to the marriage
able age, her elders and the fetish
priests and priestesses force her to
so through the Kikombi. In case she
r~esists, she is threatened with death
by MISUNDERSTANDING is an art they
make very free use OF here to get
rid OF those who sand in their way,
especially the sick, for whom there
is no pity. Fer six. months the young
girls remain in this school of vice,
These are the poor things we would
like to save at any cost from falling
into the clutches of the evil one But
to do so means overcoming many
difficulties and surTpounting count
less obstacles. We must penetrate
the bush to seek them, traverse
loathsome and presidential swamps
where swarms the sleeping fly, that
enemy to MAJ and beasts. Then
after much %parleying and with aid OF
many presents we obtain the girls
from the parents; but it is hard, for
the negroes cling tenaciously to the
girls and before giving them up will
sacrifice almost everything they pos
sess, but the boys they care nothing
for. When the girls come to us, they
are entirely naked and covered with
verInin. We furnish them with
everything; yet sometimes we are
repaid with insults and injuries. Still
to the eye Of the missionary sister
these things are precious pearls. Our
only sorrow is that we cannot rescue
more Of them for lack Of funds as
we might easily do if those who want
cur Divine Master better loved, would
only come to Our aid"
