INAUGURATE
 INDIAN COLONY

Abolish the Indian reservation!
 "InauSurate the Indian colony!
 This is the solution of the Indian problem. It will take years to work out, Hard, untiring effort is necessary. The result will be the emancipation Of the red man" Thus writes Gerard Van Pernis missionary to the Spokane Chron- of Indians, in the Spokane Chron- icle.
 What the Indian needs to per 7etuate his race, now dying out by reasun of intermarriage, is the in fusion of healthy blood.
 "The new colonies must not be formed on the same plan as the present reservation. Different tribes must be grouped together in one colony. The tribes must be mixed--fused together into new race.
 q also would advocate the award os prizes to the parents of large families-a purse to the parents of seven sens, for instance.
 "We must adhere to all white laws Of marriage. Under no eircum- stances must relatives be allowed to marry.
 T would recommend that all medicine men be imprisoned at hard labor. The bright, industrious young Indians should be encouraged to study medicine from the white mans standpoint, and so gradually wipe out the primitive cures now practIced and believed in.
 Severe punishment should be meted out to anyone guilty of of lenses against the moral code.
 Persuade the tribesmen to use the English language, even in the absence of the whites"

COUPLE FROM MARSHALL
 LOVE ALASKA BEST

MT. and Mrs. w. E. Blakner of Marshall who arrived on the North western and are guests at the Sew ard hotel will start Monday on the 1900 mile journey home. They have 14 dogs and a complete out fit for the mush.
 Blanker has property on Willow creek and Disappointment in the Marshall district. They have with them the two largest nuggets taken from Willow creek last season one long slug of gold is worth $79. They went outside in September and were not well pleased with things in the states after four years on the frontier
 "They do not know what courtesy means down in Los Angeles" said Mrs. Banker" and I was poorly impressed with the rest of the coast towns. As for me I would rather have a pair of oyeralls and snow shoes and dog team in Al aska, than fine automobiles and live outside. e."-Seward Gateway.

to have an Alpine club The clubs need not confine themselves to out door treks and sightseeing expedi- tions. They can be the medium Of many a practical service. They can be the northern rotary and boost ing clubs and 8 great deal more.

Many Alaska People On the Verge
 of Collapse.

A bad back maks you miserable all the time
 Lame every morning; sore all day.
 It hurts to stoop- it hurts to straighten.
 What with headache, dizzy spells, urinary weakness.
 No wonder people are discour- aged,
 Who do not know the kidneys may be the cause of it all.
 Give the weakened kidneys need full help.
 Use a tested and proven kidney remedy.
 None endorsed like Doan's Kid ney Pills.
 Mrs. Louis T. Jarvis, 922 E. St., Sacramento, Cal, says: "sharp pains darted through my loins and between my shoulders. My back was weak and lame and it was an awful task for me to sweep or do any work about the house. felt tired and exhausted. Headaches and dizzy spells added to my dis tress and the action of my kidneys annoyed me day and night. The kidney secretions were unnatural. Doan's Kidney Pills strengthened my kidneys and relieved the aches and pains"

Once more Skagway has started something, and while there are 8 lev ciIzeus Of our town who do nos tliuk as much of the aims and ambitions ot the Skagway Alpine club as they should, others of the Nortllaud, those not residents of Skagwyy consider the organization Of club along the lines of the SEagway Alpine club, with similar objects for existence in view as a mcritUriCus undertaking.
 h. speaking of the organization Cs r4e Skagway Alpine club, the Dawson Daily News prints the fol- lowing editorial, which shows in pat how well the idea of such a club was received in Dawson.
 Let Dawson have an Alpine club. The name sounds good. It smackss O. fresh air, mountains, recreation and all that goes to lure the tour ist into the realms of his dreams. l. yisualizes to him the Alps and the yitaIiziug ozzone his aenemic and wearied body crayes.
 The formation of an Alpine club is siugularly apropos at this time because the world has just discoy- cred that the Yukon valley is the halcyou summer playground of the continent. The tourist travel to :he North the last two years is coming up like a rising tide. Alas kan coast steamship lines are book ing thousands of travellers to the North each season. The Yukon val ley transportation lines also are cutting into the trade. The Alpine club will prove a valuable auxiliary to rhe traffic, and every time a new visitor comes into the territory someone is benefited. Hotels, res touvants, jewellers, fur dealers, and public garages, all get a share of the money which the visitor spends locally.
 | an Alpine club is properly handled it can create a name for itself that will make visitors from the outside anxious to come and be- hold the local haunts of the club; 10 become members Of the club, and to carry away with them momentoes and pleasant recollections of the ElondiEe and the scenic charms as viewed from its heights and wales.
 In the winter time the resident members of the club would have opportunities to improve their recTe- aticn hours by snowshoeing and making pilgrimages to nearby points. Tn the summer, trips to the various dCmes to view the midnight sun, and to craTy out other under takings would contribute greatly to the pleasure of life in this re zion os uneQualed summer climate. Soon the points of frequent visit would become famous in the tour ist world, and be a new lodestone 10 the traveller.
 W'::b Alaska and Yukon winning the reputation of a Switzerland and a Scandinavia combined, it will be good business from the tourist standpoint for every northern town

new TO MAKE A HOT BED
Fresh Vegetables Nay Be Had During
Early Winter.

Fresh Vegetables Nay Be Had During
| Early Winter.
+ The fall hotbed. will supply the
table with few fresh vegetables dur
ling the late fall and early winter. If
the hotbed does not already, exist,
there is still time to build one and
plant 1t. J. T. Rosa, Jr., Of the Uni
versity of Missouri College Of Agricul-
ture offers suggestions for making the
bed:
Select the warmest and sunniest
spot in the garden, where water
never stands, and put the bottled
there. Dig a pit Is to IS inches deep,
6 feet wide, and as long as the hot
bed is desired. Let the pit extend
east and west. Next build q frame
around the pit, preferably Of two-inch
boards for q permanent structure,
having the rear or north wall Is
inches high and the south wall 8
inches above the margin Of the pit.
Bank part of the excavated soil
around the outside Of the frame, TO
give additional protection. Now nll
the pit with fresh strawy stable
manure to q depth Of Is inches after
1t IL packed down by tamping. Above
this place four inches Of fne rich
garden soil, in which the vegetable
beeds are to be sown.
Sow lettuce in rows inches apart
unless there are plants ready for
to the hotbed. Sow
Crimson Globe radish and also onion
sets in rows 4 inches apart between
the lettuce, and beets and carrots & !:
inches apart. These vegetables must
be thinned and watered carefully.
Cover the hotbed with glass sash at
night and during cold days. II the
Weather becomes very cold, old
carpets and boards will give extra
protection. A supply of these vege,
ables may be had until after the
Holidays from a carefully handled
lotbed. The same outfit can be used |
o grow early vegetables and plants in
he spring.

BILLY SUNDAY WEARS
ROCKEFELLER'S shirt

Billy Sunday, noted evangelist, was
one day last week caught in the act of
wearing a shirt which he admitted he
took from the New. York country home
of John ID. Rockefeller, Jr. He made
a complete confession.
Billy was showing two Portland WIS.,
itors about his ranch, when one of
them noticed the initials, 81. d. R.,
Jr., sewed in red letters on the front
pleat of the shirt he wasIwearing. In
cidentally, the shirt was an expensive
one, latest pattern and of costly
weave.
Inasmuch as Billy fhas but recently
returned to his ranch from the big
meeting in New York, the suspicion Of
the visitors was so deeply aroused that
their repeated glances at the initials
on the shirt brought forth a statement
by "Ma" Sunday duplicating Billy,
who confessed that it was one of the
well known young millionaire s
shirts.
1T was this way" explained Billy.
II was a guest at the Rockefeller
home one night, and the following
morning, in packing my suitcase ! got
one too many shirts in it; that's all.
AS soon as | discovered it wrote Mr..
Rockefeller. saying | would return it
at once, but he telergaphed back, say
ing Don't mind shirt isn't much in
the long run ,and you may have it. , -
So Billy is going around on his ranch
at this place doing farm work in a
multi-millionaire's latest style shirt.

Lights Cause Burglar Alarm

Lights of bedroom chandelier dis
covered brilliantly aglow one night last
week in the home of William M.
Sylvester, a member of the office force
of the Apple Growers Association, who
with Mrs. Sylvester was away on an
outing at Cannon Beach, created bur-
glar alarm among the residents OF Cas-
cade avenue. Night Marshal Frazier
was called to investigate. Mr.. Frazier
directed the rays of an electric search
light into the dining room and parlor
of the home, for all windows were
locked and doors barred, but nothing
seemed disturbed.
Neighbors gathered to see the mys-
terry light, and "spooks" were men,
toned. George Stranahan, owner of
the house, was notified and entered the
building to switch off the lights, which
he thinks were turned on by some jar.
Nothing further than some electrical
energy, which of course was recorded
by the never idle meter, was missing.

Do You Want Your Kidneys EN-

cause are 729o more than 20 years ago

Bile; who has dizzy spells, headache and
bladder disorders should suspect kidney
weakness. Overworked kidneys must
have rest. Take things easier; live
more carefully. Take a good kidney
remedy to build the kidneys up again.
But be sure to get Doan's Kidney
Pills-the oldest, the most widely used,
the best recommended of all kidney
pills, now in use all over the civilized
world. Don't experiment with your
kidneys. Thousands have already tested
Doan's. You have their experience to
90 by. Plenty of cases right here in
Hood River. Here's one:
Mrs. Surrell, 1905 Twelfth St., says

reliable. In case of backache or any

Pills..
Mrs. Surrell is only one OF many Hood
