Being misunderstood.

Another thing, I am being mis-
understood and the work / am under
taking to do is being hampered and
hindered. Often when l write the
leading man, or rather the one whom
think has influence, in the town,
city or community; Of my coming,
he gets the idea that / am coming
to be entertained, and that want
to see crowd that will fill the big
gest house in town-that | am
professional wind-jammer, with
professional axe to grind. hidden up
under my coat. And if everything is
not out of the way, so that can
have crowd to which to spout, and
he can at the same time, show the
town off pretty, he writes me, giving
me a new date, when all of this can
be done. This is all wrong. don't
want to show off or grind my axe
/ don't want you to show off.
What l do want is this:
list. When write you, / want you
to get out and see the other men
of influence, who like yourself, want
to see more business in your home
town or community, which will give
employment to young Colored people.
2. Organize them into committee
and select place at which can
meet the most thoughtful men and
women, in order that we may do
something to better the business and
moral conditions of the race, right
where you live. If crowd can be
gotten out all right; If not, get out
the people who want to see better
times and who will work to help
your community. These | will be
glad to speak to and organize, SO
that you can help yourselves.
3. Write me, intelligently and say
come on. Between the time you write
me and the time come, keep busy
talking up the meeting, place and the
date. If convenient get out hand
bills and put your advertisement in
the paper, there you take it.
4. When como, have some one
to meet me. When you hear me
speak and we organize-when / am
gone, 90 what l told you, and your
town will be better and your people
encouraged.
Please do not change my dates,

AIDS FOR YUKON

While the Yukon Development League plans its major drive on ot- tawa for a railway and various forms of local assistance, no doubt there are several items which will be Of great aid and which will not mean a great outlay.
 By all means the railway project should be laid before parliament with full data before parliament with full data and stauncb support, This is something which will mean the adoption of large policy and nwhich legislators will want much information from experts. Engi- neers will be required to inyesti- gate the field. The first thing is to get parliament educated to the ad- visibility of a survey to this re- zion, and the way to educate par liament is by informing the com nercial centers which have influenc with tne members of parliament. Ex tensivs data must be presented in compact form,
 Other items which Yukon wants include special sums for mining de Velo0ment, mining engineers, geolo- gists, customs mills, radio communi- cation, airplane service ana more extensive roads to the producing mines and for auto routes. Other items mgiht be suggester, but those mention seem the most preSsign. Ample data should be gathered to support the need of each.
 Yukoners understand well the practicability and the need Of such matters in this region. Distant memOers and the Ottawa ministry probably have a faint Idea Of the fitness of such services here. Some body must educate those in the position to control the grant.
 Let the good work of assmebling the facts not lag. The information cannot be gotten together and sent out too soon. Nv is the duh pc riod of the year in Dawsn. Let the work go ahead right now. EV- eryone in the North will share the benefits-now, all together-one for all and all for one. - Dawson News. a4. 4 .a ii

HANDICAPPED

There is a considerable shortage of supplies at Skagway owing to the fact that about he only steamer that ever calls there is the Princess Mary and there Are two weeks between her trips. This is one of the evils of the cancelltng Of the Alaskan mail contracts. Under the mail con tract system steamers carrying mail were compelled to land at SEagway, as 1t was the terminus of their route, the contract reading Seat tle-SkSgway, including way points" The surest way to handicap a new country or, in fact, any country, is to restrict transportation facilities. We'll. anyway, Alaska should be proud of one thing, and that is that she is so far ahead or the rest Of the country that they have to handicao her to keeo her from out classin; the the rest of the country. Even with all the handicaps placed upon her by meddling experimenters the Territory will win out in the home stretch and flash under the wire a winner. All We have to do Is to sit tight in the saddle and use the whip little when We get in 8 tight place.-Douglas Islanu News.

SHAKING THE MAIL TRAIL
 ALONG THE YUKON RIVER

One of Alaska's worst trails, that between Kaltag, a lower Yukon riv- CT town, and UnaIakleet, a north ern sound coast point between St. Michael and Nome, is being given winter stake markings. Stakes a long the trail, it is believed, will help the mail carrier and their dogs teams during the winter.
 Mails for Nome, St.. Michael and Seward peninsula points is carried over he Kaltag-Unalakleet trail dur ing the winter. In summer 1t runs through a wilderness and s'used by only the most daring "mushers," " who " taking the seventy-five mile trail, can save a 250-mie trip thru the Yukon delta and across a strip of the Boring Sea to St. Michael. In the winter the trail is packed by snow, but in the summer it is bog gy and climbs over or goes around thousands of "nigger- heads"

Wants Daughter To Become A
 Nurse

Having received his preliminary education at the sheldon Jackson school at sitka after which course in higher classes was reveived at Carlisle, Henry Phillips, Native Chilkat, appreciating the benefit that his education has meants to him, has decided to send his little daughter Edna, who is g years old to the Chemawa government school at Portland, which is con sidered second to the great Carlisle in point of educational facilities.
 The decision of MT. Phillips to send his child to the government in- stitution was probably brought a. bout oy the sudden passing out of Mrs. Phillips which leaves the little Native maiden motheriess, and in the present status of the race re- lationship in Alaska, the pathway which lay before the child was not strewn with roses. MT. Phillips be- lieves that he can perform the great est service to his people by placing his daughter in a position to re- ceive a training which he ultimate ly hopes will fit her to study to become trained nurse, and then to have her come back and devote her lisa to the care of the Alaskan native.
 Henry Phillips received the tech nical training of a printer, and as such las followed the printing trade almost exclusively for more than twenty years. He is a thorough mecnanic in his line and is a liT- ing proof of the mooted question as to whether or not the Alaska Ma tive shoulde be taught in the ways oi his whfe brother.
 IT. e experiment of educating lit tie Edna will demonstrate what two generations of education will do in an attempt towards bringing the Al aska Native up to a higher state or civilization. Miss Lois Butt has kind Iy offered to escort tn elittle girl to Chewawa.
