DUTCH GIRL DESERTED.
Woman From Holland Left in Plight
at Newton.

at Newton.
Newton. June 2S-Unable to speak
word of English. deserted by her hus-
band after a few days of married life
but with a determination to live in
America, a little Holland girl is making
her way for herself at Newton. She is
Mrs Christina Wander Putte and her
husband is somewhere in Wyoming.
About three weeks ago she came,
with her husband who had brought her
from Holland to marry. her, to Newton.
They had been married but a few days
and the woman was scarcely able TO
speak word of English. Her husband
had a ranch in Wyoming. so he told
her, but this was a wild and unknown
country to her so they decided to settle
in Newton, which she believed is more
civilized.
Her husband evidently did not like
his bride as we'll after few days as
he thought he would. Her inability to
speak English and her lack of knowl-
edge Of American customs may have
had something to do with the matter
He may have forgotten that a few
short years before he was as ignorant
las his wife. ii least no left her 10 shift
flor himself.
Desertion Of a wife who knew moth
ting of American language or customs
was easy and the little woman decided
3this was another American idea, SO
sFhe went to work to learn the language.
Mousehold furniture which had been
purchased was left at the store from
which it was bought and with the as
tsistance of persons who could speak
ther language, she got a place to work
for her living.

A SIMPLE EXPLANATION.

These days of nervous tension, nothing would please us better than to be able to give our read CTS every bit of news about the cause of this rest lessness-the threatened war that is constantly looming up; but owing to the eXhorbitant charge es bv our generous-in spots-government for service it is impossible with the limited amount of revenue of newspaper in a community like Ketchikan, to give more than We are giving now Our Seattle correspondent has instructions to send the most interesting news of the day At the rate we are receiving the news these days the cost will reach nearly S8 day. Some people may think that we can afford to pay that amount Others will think otherwise but we KNOW thar we cannot. and eat two meals a day. However we have decided to eat one meal for a time and give our readers the best we can meantime.
 Since the government decided to reduce the cost of service to Alaska for all commercial pu1- poses, it is learned that the business has more than doubled Thus. with the increase of the business the cable is paying well And we wond- CT if we could not induce the department to take up our cause and give us service for one hal cent a word. In the states, they send press news 5Oee miles for one half cent word. In view of that fact we are unable to see why our magnanimous government could not give Us the service for the same price It would be to the advantage of all concerned. The Alaska press could give just as much news as the press of the states. and thus contribute to the contentment of all The gov ernment is-seemingly in spots at least. bent on developing the territory. but to help some enter prises and retard others is not progressing. The whole should work in unison.
 We believe it is about time the newspapers i Alaska take this matter up in earnest, and if un- successful we can turn our attention to the wire less.
