NATIVE nN7Fbcylp
 DEFINED BY TALLMAN

Commissioner Tallman, of the gen. eral land office, department of the interior, has sent the following letter to registers and receivers and to the surveyor general in Alaska:
 You are advised that on December .15, 1917. the secretary of the interior amended section 6, page r, of the Alaska tOwnsite regulations, circular 491, approved July 19, 1916 GAS L. D., 227). to as to read in full as follows:
 Indian or native Alaskan occupants who have secured certificates of citi- Zenship under the territorial laws of Alaska shall be treated in all respects like white citizen occupants; but all land occupied by other Indians or Alaskan natives shall not be assessed nor conveyed by the trustee. In mak- ing the subdivisional survey herein re- quired, the surveyor will set apart the possessions occupied by the Indians who are not citizens and appropriate ly designate them as such upon the duplicate plats of his surveys, but he will not extend any street or alley upon or across such possessions"
 Certificates of Citizenship.
 In connection herewith, attention is called to territorial act of April 27, 1915 (Chap. 24, Session Laws of Alas jka, 1915, p. 32), providing a method whereby native Indians of Alaska may definitely establish the fact of their citizenship under section 6, act of February 8, 1887 CA Stat, 3SS). A certificate of such citizenship will therefore be required to enable Tn dian or native Alaskan occupants" of lots in town sites to avail themselse es of the privileges of such amended regulations.

been at the front that the British are not doing their part in the war; that is, you cannot tell them and get away with it.
 F "'The British bear the brunt of everything.' says a returned Candtan If there's any dirty work to be done, they do it. There is no comparison in the hugeness of the work compared with ours.
 GA simple proof is the common sight in England of men wearing four or five gold stripes (which signify the number of their wounds), while our men show rarely more than one. The British casualties since the war began are six to one colonial The English army and navy have been decimated in many frightful battles English regiment after regiment has been wip- ed out and reconstructed over 20 times since the war began. This blackguard. ing of England is done in the hope of detaching the United States from her allies and of forcing a separate and early peace between Washington and Berlin. They are not thinking of the possible danger and suffering of the American people, but of the fate of the fatherland.
 , "'Another falsehood to take form with these German propagandists is to represent the British as a nation of drunkards, who use the grain Amer ica sends to make booze" Every one of these falsehoods we Canadians re- sent bitterly. The British haberdash- CT from the Thams, cotton operatives from Manchester, the miner from Northumberland, the Scotsman and the Welshman is a soldier, valiant and self-sacrificing. who, not boast ing, never hesitates to pay the price with his hearts blood. The reason Americans hear more of us is because we're the nearest fighting neighbors and, in a sense, their own people,"

BRAZIL IS TROUBLED
 BY AGENTS OF GERMANY
(By Associated Press)

RIO GRANDE DO SUL, Feb. l. Brazil is having it's spy scare, and it has become more general even than in some of the other belligerent coun- tries. It is only necessary for per son to be a foreigner and stranger in any Brazilian town to become the object Of suspicious regard by the peo- pie, and even of police surveillance.
 Orders have gone out from Rio de Janeiro for the arrest of large numbers of Germans, many of whom appear to be innocent business men, although there is no doubt but that German espionage is we'll organized in South ern Brazil. Spies are reported to have been especially active in the state Of San Paulo, and the government has taken rigid measures for watching all suspects there.
 As soon as the government began these measures of precaution, how ever, large number of rich and we'll known German business men who were under suspicion of being German gov ernment agents succeeded in escaping into the Argentine Republic with what ever secrets they may have had.

list of counties having the largest mum Der of marriage licenses, while Los Angeles county maintained it's place at the head of the list, with a total of 1888 licenses issued. This was an in- crease of 978 over the total for Los Angeles county in 1916.
 San Francisco county showed only a net increase of 765 over 1916, but the increase in the number of licenses is- sued to Caucasians was HOO. The small net increase was due to a de- crease of 360 in the number of licenses issued to Japanese in 1917, he said.
 Leslie accounted for the decrease in the number of marriages of Japanese by the new rules by which Japanese picture brides" were admitted with out the formality of an American we'd ding, which was required in other years. The records showed there were only 240 marriages in San Francisco county in 1917, while there were eos in 1916.
 San Mateo county also showed a large increase in the number of licenses issued in 1917, the total being 505, while it was 326 in 1916.
 Reports from recorders in the lead ing counties of the state by the state registrar are as follows:

: W. V: When a child is introduced
to an adult, it is not necessary for
him to shake hands. The offer should
come from the older person, if made;
and as most grown-ups wish to be es-
pecially cordial to children, they usu-
ally do offer to shake hands, and the
child should then go forward and per-
form the ceremony.
HARRY: L think the young lady

compliment in telling you at once of
her evening at the skating rink with
the other gentleman. She probably
did not wish you TO think that she was
trying to h de anything from you; and
her relating the incident was a recog-
