AND INFLUENZA.


From the hunters Of northern Sas-
Katchewan comes the report that
game is being "decimated" by infiu-
-naa; that the smaller animals show
marked SYMPTOMS Of the disease, and
that even the moose are so weakened
that they become exhausted quickly
when pursued. The report is just
another bit of evidence added to the
yet unsettled dispute among scient-
lists as to whether or not influenza at
tacks animals. In earlier days it was
accepted without question that such
was the case. The frightful epidem-
ic that swept the Greek army in the
tenth year of the siege of Troy is be-
Eeved by many scientists to have been

ravagcs Of the disease. said:
"On mules and dogs tn infection
first began,
Aud last, the vengeful arrows fixed
themselves on man."
A carefully compiled chronology of
influenza, beginning with this sup
posed Greek outbreak Of the disease,
records numerous instances wherein
both humans and animals seemed to
suffer from the same disease. One
historian of influenza says:
"Cows and horses have especially
suffered as is observed in the epidem-
les Of 1888, 1897, 1903. 1881, and
1887. Dogs, cats, deer. sheep and
swine have not enjoyed immunity;
poultry also; and even fish seemed oc-
casionally to be affected by the NOR
bid inflence."
On the other hand, scientists who
have experimental with the disease
declare they have found it impossible
to transfer the complaint to any of a

AS TEACHER
 OF SCHOOL CHILDREN

Superintendent Knox of the Ket- chikan public school discussed the newsboys' union at that place and the connection with it of B. R. Saw yer, recently leader of the radicals among Alaska labor agitators, now under arrest for desertion. The dis cussion occurred at a meeting at tended by the pupils of the school. the faculty and committee of the One Hundred Per Cent Americans. The newsboys' union was disband- ed. The Iketchikan Times contains the following concerning the re- marks of Prof. Knox:
 "'The Newsboy's Union, as con- ducted here, undermines true Amer icanism.' He said that the name of B. R. Sawyer was on the member ship role and that he had instruct ed the newsboys not to sell the P. I. and Times but to sell the Forge, the Industrial Worker, and other I. w. w. papers. He also stated that boys had been asked to boycott Heckman's store and other business houses here He also stated that boys who boycotted business houses that pay for the maintenance of our schools will not be educated in our schools. MT. Knox said that Amer jeans boys would not be found with such people as are found around the union hall at this time.'

Boring From Within

Cincinnati Enquirer)
 The attention of students of the struggles be- capital and labor has been suddenly called to | unexpected and unauspcious phenomenon. Fine mics of the present order of human society have adopted different tactics from their past Formerly they attempted to achieve their ends by working in the open and independently of the American Fedora ion of Labor Having discovered, however, that this they determined to enter 1t by any and every insd- ous method and corrupt 1t from inside Concealing heir principles and purposes, countless members of the l. w. w. worked their way by process of in- 1t last, degree which there is present means ,f estimating, they have honeycombed 1t and planted their germs of destruction in its vitas.
 This method they have denominated boring from within"
 It Is not new. It is, rather as old as life itself been employed by Nature, whose most titanic de- structons achieved by external forces The seeds of decay within! It is by working out wardly from the interior that the germs of disease accomplish their miracles of death. In Siam, for example, there is species of predatory ants which through invisible holes, into the legs of chairs md tables book and beds and excavate them hollow shell which day in single instant crumble into dust.
 Applied to the institutions and organizations of human life this method has always deserved and ,eived the and contempt of men. To create and develop association for the propagation of idea is thing; to sneak into already estab shed by the labors and sacrifices of others for cherished purpose and pervert 1t to different and is quite another.
 For this method of these modern apostles of destruction this process of 'borng from within" every noble soul must feel emotion of loathing and adherence and if it does not to increase our antagonism these enemies of civilization, it will prove blind the greatest danger that has ever threatened the orderly development of human life.
