and Is being widely discussed through.

A communication to the National
Geographic society recalls That rein
deer were not IndI@rn0us to Alaska,
and tells the interesting story NJ their
Introduction there.
1.-THE story of the inception and
growth Of the reindeer ENTERPRISE IN
Alaska Is very interesting and IS not

During an extended trip nf Tnspec.

don Jackson, then general agent Of cd.
ucatlon In Alaska, was impressed witt,
the fact that the natives IN arctic and
subarctlc Alaska were rapidly losing
their sources of food supply.
doctor Jackson saw that unless
something was done at once the Unit
ed States would have to choose be-
tween feeding the 10000 and more ma
tivcS or letting them starvp to death.
"The same moss which covered So
many thousands of miles Of the Mains
OF arctic Siberia was seer everywhere
in Alaska. The tame reindeer wos
practically the same animal AS the
wild caribou Of Alaska, changed bv be.
Ing domesticated for centuries.
O his return to the United States
in 1871, Doctor Jackson asked congress
for an appropriation to provide the
money for importing n few deer.
Congress wns not convinced Of tho
wisdom of such action. hut several prI.
Vate persons were so interested that
they placed 5000 at Doctor Jackson's
disposal to begin the experiment. The

dent organizations, in which they were
on a footing of perfect equality WIN
the men, and frequently were electeu
to various official positions. AFTER they
we're graduated from n OF the sew
eral high schools or from the uniNer-
sity, there were many branches OF
work open to them.
"Having thus such an excellent fouh-
dation to build upon. It Is small woh-
der that the woman's movement soon
found mary active supporters. III
1863 the diet had accorded the mu-
.nicipal vote TO women taxpayers living
In the country, and In 1872 to women
living In the towns. all of whom were
also given the right to be elected men,
hers Of certain local self-governine
bodies. In 1900 the women social dem
ocrats included the suffrage In their
program, hut the special activity tOr
the suffrage began only in the year
1904, although in 1897 n petition had
been officially presented to the die
at the request of the Finnish WON
ans association
1.-THE reason why so little was done
in direct furtherance of the cause OF
woman suffrage between the years
1897 and 1904 is that just at that time
Finland was passing through a severe
political crisis.
"After the outbreak of the October
revolution in Russia O905l, n sympa
thetic strike was declared in FINLAND
and several nf the members Of the cen
trail committee elected by a mass
meeting to manage the details of tn
strike were women.
1.-THE first action taken by the com
mittee was to close all the liquo'
shops. saloons and barrOoms, and L
organize II volunteer police force Il
keep order. After the second day tn
markets were reOpened and the strik
ers were not allowed to cut off the wa
ter supply. In short. the strike wa
managed in a most orderly and sys
tematic way, and no outrages of an,
sort were committed"

DISCUSS NEW HEAT RATES.
Merchants Protest Against Increase at
Coop Club Meeting.

Edison heat, corner cutting, and the
traffic problem were discussed with
the city commissioners, who were
guests of the Cooperative club at its
regular meeting and dinner last night
at the Elks club. The merchants pro-
tested vigorously against the rs per
cent hike which has been granted to
the heating company. The merchants
want the question referred to the in
dustrial court for adjustment.
The Cooperative club will send let
ters to the large employers of Topeka
asking them to see that their employees
stick to the orthodox trails when they
go to and from work. and do not maj
the parking by trampling the grass.
Proper instruction of the drivers OF
motor trucks by their employers, will
help solve the traffic problem, the
members of the club believe.
