 Fourth. An industrial training school in southeastern Alaska for ad- vanced pupils.

AMERICAN WOMEN WILL HAVE TO TILL FIELDS
 SAYS BELGIAN WOMAN

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 13.-Speak- ing here before the students of the Alameda High School, Madame Jules Clerfayt, who is on tour of the Unit ed States in the interests Of the Belg- ian relief remarked that American women will sooner or later face the questions that the French women have already answered.
 French women, Past, Present and Future" was the title Of the lecture She said in part:
 American women must be ready to till the soil and fill mans position. It will be the spirit of woman's unlim- tied sacrifice that will pave the way for democracy.

GOVERNOR STRONG'S s RE PORT OF MATTERS
 ALASKAN OFF COVER INVENT PRINTING PRESS

Governor Strong's annual report has just been received from the Depart ment of the Interior. The report is released for comments December l2 -At the completion of his report the Governor wrote to the Secretary of ,he Interior as follows:
 Governors Office
 Juneau, Alaska Oct. l, 1917
 Sir: l have the honor to submit his my annual report of matters per ,aining to the administration of this office for the fiscal year ended June So. 1917.@
 Alter reviewing the conditions. mak- -ng comparisons. notes, comments and recommendations in general way. the Governor speaks of Trade and Commerce: Agricultural Development; Too Much Reservation Population and More Liberal Policies" These subjects he handles with marked ability and hits the nail squarely on the head with his notes and comments particularly on the following subject;
 Political Pottaee.
 The political history of most, if not all, Of the Territories of the United States has been marked by trouble and diseontent In the Territories po- .itical troubles are from time to time augmented by factional strife, and Alaska has had it's full share of both. Discomfort with political conditions $ natural. for it is through this that reforms are inaugurated and abuses corrected: but fact:onal strife at least n Alaska. as has been demonstrated, $ due 10 the desire Of a few, self-cho sen leaders to dominate political con- i!tions for purposes far removed from altruistic. In other words, factional bitterness develops through an over whelming desire to secure the loaves and fishes which go with or are sup posed to be a part of political patron age In the minds Of political pat riots of this type efficiency of govern ment is the last considerations; the division of office and political pottage and the prestige. power, and emolu ments which are supposed to be part and parcel of office holding the first. All this makes for lack of unity and coordination on the part Of the people who, as a whole, are anxious to see as complete political autonomy as is possible under government of, by, and for the people, and who are also desirous that that government shall be efficiently and hon, .-:y administer ed and that the Territory be developed along legitimate lines"
 Tn speaking of the Alaska natives, the Governor points out the good work of the Bureau Of Education, which he says is hampered by lack of sufficient funds with which to carry on the work with efficiency, and he recommends the following:
