NOBLE RELICS OF THE PAST
Triumphai Arch Of Titus, at Rome,
and the Colosseum, Are Splendid
In Their Ruin.

The Triumphal Arch Of Titus IN
Rome was built In 20 A. d. to COM
memorate the defeat Of the Jews, and
was dedicated to the Emperor Titus
after his death. 1t is adorned with fine
sculptures in relief. On the frieze out.
side is sacrificial procession and on
the inner side Titus Is seen crowned
by Victory in a quadriga driven by
Roma. On another part of the arch is
q triumphal procession Of Jews, the
Table of Shew Bread. and the seven
bralched candlestick. In the center
OF the vaulting the consecrated emper-
or is seen being carried to heaven by
an eagle.
In 1882 the arch was a set of ruins,
and some of the medieval additions
were removed and 1t was partly recon-
structed. The colosseum, with seats
for $4,000 spectators. originally called
the Flavian amphitheater, was COM
pleted by Titus in the year so A. D.,
and derives its later name, probably.
from a colossal statue of Nero. The
colosseum is now all In ruins.

LEARNED LESSON OF THRIFT
Boys and Girls Of New Jersey Town
Have Made Record Of Which
They Are Proud.

II there has been less talk of the
servant problem In Bridgeton, New
Jersey. than elsewhere, It Is quite ex-
plainable. Not to be outdone by their
European sisters and brothers in mat
tiers of thrift and industry, IS young
sters in that town have Invested $1,000
in United States thrift stamps this
year, thanks to their own hard work.
Boys and girls alike have welcomed
opportunities of doing remunerative
dishwashing, sweeping, busting, store
clerking, baby-minding, errand-run-
ming. ETC., with the goal of economy
symboiized by government stamps
ahead of them. The more ambitious
have undertaken cutting weeds, carry
Ing coal, sitting ashes, selling papers
raising chickens, cleaning pavements
and some have even won prizes to add
to their savings. Having found that
time can be converted into money it is
doubtful whether these boys will again
find the street corner a worthwhile
place for spending idle hours, or the
girls be content to waste periods In
porch chatter.

that there are plenty of whitefish to
 be caught, and that the reason the
 Indian does not catch them is be-
 cause he doesn't want to use the
 greater labor involved. But here is
 where the fish commissioner shows
 his complete ignorance of the situ-
 ation, as, for instance, on the Tan
 ana river. True enough, there are
 some places where whitefsh could
 be caught in large numbers, but
 only comparatively few people
 were able to benefit themselves in this way. Where can the natives from Nenana on to Salchaket catch the whitefish? We of the mission tried to catch enough for our daily use here at Nenana, and we caught only one or two a day.
 If the matter were left to Alas kans to legislate, and not put in the hands of outsiders who are con- veniently placed to near only the side of the money grabbers. then we would have laws which would prevent canneries operating on the Yukon, and all the other rivers of Alaska. Governor Riggs has gone to Washington to advocate this very thing. What happened on the Cop per river, when the cannery was allowed to operate there? Well, if this cannery on the Yukon is not removed, the Government will be forced to give us also an Indian agent to feed the natives when their catch of fish has failed. Deliver us from being dependents! No, give IS laws that will protect Alaska for Alaskans, both white and native, md insure the annual run of salmon o their spawning grounds up the Yukon, as we'll as the rest of the .ivers of the Interior. Here is hop o,r tho affor-ts on tho mart of ollr Governor, our Delegate to Congress, Archdeacon Stuck, Bishop Rowe, md all other in position to gain a rearing for us, will be of avail in gaining legislation to prevent can leries from operating on the Yukon ,r any of our Alaskan rivers.

The five items are: ..... ~>..

 Passage of the oil and coal land leasing bill. Passage of the bill, now a law, will enable development of Alaska's oil fields. the Governor claims.
 Open the national forest reserves for pulp mills. Billions of feet of good pulp wood stand on Alaska's two big forest reserves. Pulp and paper men will not establish mills on the reserves, however, until laws are passed which would give them title to the land.
 Regulate the salmon fishing in ;dustry. Alaska's big industry, sal mon fishing, is rapidly becoming a thing of the past, and unless the fishing is conserved, the silver horde of the North will be gone within a few years.
 Establish a federal constabulary. Alaska wants federal constabu- lary on the order of the state police of Pennsylvania. At present a few United States marshals have the big task of preserving peace in almost the entire Northland.

FISH AGAIN.

The population of the Interior of Alaska, both white and native, have Archdeacon Stuck to thank and praise for his able and tireless eff forts to stir up indignation against that "iniquitous enterprise" at the mouth of the Yukon, says the editor of The Alaskan Churchlnan in the February issue of that publication. We refer to the cannery of the Carlisle Packing company, which for the past two years has operated at the mouth of the Yukon river. and which this past year greatly added to the misery caused by a shortage of fish, We will admi: that there WAS a shortage of fish. We will also admit that there have been shortages before. There was one in 1917 here on the Panama river. But even with the shortage of fish in 1917, both the natives and the whites caught enough to tide them over. Those were better times. There was some fur to be caught, and the natives for their part had something to fall back on. But the shortage of this past sum- mer came at most unfortunate time. There are no rabbits to speak of, and rabbits can be used to support both man and dogs when the fish fail. Then, besides the lack of rabbits, there is hardly any fur to be caught. Here in this Panama valley the situation is acute, and the worst of it is, we have yet to face the breakup time, when there is neither hunting nor fishing to any extent, and when the existence of the natives until the fishing season is and always was hard
 That the cannery was in large measure responsible for the shortage of salmon, which was so acutely felt on the upper three-fourths of the length of the Yukon, and on its gret tributaries, the Koyukuk and the Panama, cannot be disputed. This too when the fish commissioner in his attack on Archdeacon Stuck says that it cannot be supported by any evidence whatsoever" But ask any white man on the length of the Tan ana, and unless he is entirely unin- formed or is connected in some way with the interests of the cannery. he will say most positively that the cannery was a cause of privation to both whites and natives dependent
 
 on the fish. We have seen short ages before, but we have never seen the time when large percentage of the salmon were net-marked, and when practically all the salmon that came up the Yukon and its tribu- taries were undersized. Evidence goes to show that the men fishing for the cannery were so successful in fencing off the run, that about all the fish to reach us on the Tan ana were those that broke through the nets or else were small enough to come through the meshes.
 The writer pretends to know from frst-hand only conditions here on this great Panama river, where for the length of at least three hun dred of the seven hundred miles the natives, and also many white men, depend on the salmon for their sup ply of dog feed I want to say that the WHITE men suffered also, and The Alaskan Churchman is just as much interested in the welfare
