1t is better to be safe than sorry
where your savings are concerned.
The money which costs you long hours
of labor with brain or hand to save,
which cost ~self-deniaI and will power,
should be s~afeguarded in every way.
The difference between safeguarding
savings and failure to do SO is amply
illustrated by what happ ned to the
savings of George Dumbinsky, of
G~reensburg, Pa, and Mrs. NJ. l.. Stru.
en-, of Butte, Montana. Each had a
rawlings of $1,000.
George D%umbinsky hid his savings
in a pair of old shoes which he left
lying about his boarding house, believ-
ing no one would steal anything so
apparently worthless as the discarded
footwear. But Andy Olvek. IA # Glow
border, decid d to .etu n t. Aust a,
and he wanted to show his .eIlow-
townsmen the kind of shoes that are
worn in America, so he picked up
George Dumbinsky's discarded boots
and took them with him. When he
neared Rotterdam, a fellow-p ssenger
on the steamer told him that he wo Id
have to pay $25 duty on the old shoes,
SO he threw them overheard, and
Dumbinsky's $4,000 with them. That
was Dumbinsky's life savings, and it
was gone forever.
Mrs. Struen invested her $3C0) saw
ings in Liberty BoGds and Wan Saw
ings Stamps. Recon y her store was
robbed and everything OF value taken.
But the loss of the Liberty Bonds and
Savings Stamps did not worry her, for
they were registered in her name, and
could not be disposed of by the rob-
bers. She will get her money in full,
for the registration by the government
has protected her, and she will secure
duplicate securities if hers are not
recovered, but George Dumb'nsky will
never recover his $4,000 from the
ocean.

1.-THE American people are headed

This warning was sounded Dy

"The h Oh Cost of living will come

The retail dealers cannot be blamed
for selling what the public demands.
Every person who buys unsuitaDle

"Nor is this folly and extravaganza
confined to persons of small means.

out of war contracts or specuiatlons
are wasting money in riotOus living.
The restaurants on Broadway and the
expensive shops on Fifth Avenue, Ill

be impossible to adopt a suggestion OF
one prominent economist, and tax peo-
pie not on the income they receive
but on the money they spend. 1t ought
to be possible, however, to adopt the
suggestion Of the Treasury that there
should be no reduction in the income
tax in respect to incomes spent for
unnecessary or ostentatious consup-
ton, but that income saved and in
vested should be taxed at a lower
rate. Increased production, decreas-
ed consumption, and saving to the
limit are the three sure remedies for
the high cost of living.

Russian minister, Baron Stoeckl, in securing the passage of the bill au- thorizing the payment of the purchase price as stipulated in the Seward Stoeckl treaty. This report had lain buried in the government printing of- flee for forty years or more. I have failed to find it or any reference to it in any history of Alaska or in any article dealing with the purchase of Alaska. The investigation seems to have been the sensation of the day, and then to have passed silently into oblivion.
 The official title of this document is Report Mo- 25, Alaska Investiga- tion, Fortieth Congress, Third Ses. sion." The date is February 27, 1869 It is out of print now, except as it appears in the Congressional Record of the Fortieth congress. I managed to buy copy from the government printing office by paying for a large volume of miscellaneous documents on other subjects with which it was in c1uded.

MORE LIGHT
 0NPURCHASE
 OF ALASKA

John E. Ballaine, formerly of Sew ard, contributes the following interest ing, contribution to Alaska history which is taken from recent issue of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer:
 In the chapter of Ezra Meeker's Fifty Years of Progress" which was quoted on the editorial page of the Post-1ntelligencer recently, the vener- able pioneer, giving some of the req sons for the purchase of Alaska, men, tions first on the list tue appearance of the Russian fleet in New York har- Dor at critical period of the civil war, which was interpreted on both sides of the Atlantic as a warning to France and England not to recognize the Confederacy. This episode, as Mr. Meeker truly says, left lasting impression of friendship in the minds of the people of the United States, and the purchase of Alaska, he inn plies, without stating it as a fact, was really return for favors to balance the coming of the Russian fleet.
 Calls Story Fiction
 That same circumstance has been used by other historians and by news paper and magazine writers for the last twenty years as furnishing the solution of the mystery back of our payment of s7,2OO,O0O in gold coin for the purchase of a distant region that was then generally believed to be a barren waste of ice and snow at a time when the treasury of the United States was all but empty and govern ment securities were selling below par. According to these authors the United States desired or had secretly obligated itself to reimburse Russia for the timely arrival of the Russian fleet, and Alaska was thrown in as blind to conceal the real purpose of the payment
 The story makes pleasant reading and has gained wide currency: but it is like some other notable instances of pleasant reading that have found places in history-it belongs to fiction instead.
 happened to be in Washington, D. C., several years ago when this yer Slon of reasons for the purchase of Alaska was published in one of the magazines with a good deal of cir cumstantial detail Interested as I was in Alaska and Alaskan enterprises, and knowing from first hand about the variety an dextent of it's resources and the magnitude of it's possibilities. l decided to ascertain the real facts l inquired of Elihu Root, then secre- tary Of state, whether the state depart- ment had in it's archives any docu- ments or data, secret or otherwise. which might make a foundation of fact, or even of inference for the story. He assured me there was noth- ing whatever to warrant it. Report Forgotten ....,

Newspaper Quoted

The occasion of the investigation, as shown by the committee report, was the publication of an article from Washington in the Worcester (Mass.) Spy, the editor of which was a mem Der of congress, to this effect in part:
 "Of the $7,20O,OOO in gold voted for Alaska, the amount it is now reported Russia actually got was $5,000,000 in gold, about 81,000,000 sterling This leaves $2,2OO,OOO to be accounted for. But with regard to the outside ring, the third house-the press. editors and correspondents-it is reported that above $3O0000 in greenbacks was spent among them. Mr. Riggs, banker here, is said to have obtained from the secretary of the treasury, just at the close of the debates which ter minated in the purchase of Alaska, a loan of the amount specified"
 The article continues column in length, telling where the money was spent-among newspaper correspond ents and to newspapers in several of the big cities, as we'll as to lobbyists. MT. Riggs, the article states, was the fiscal agent for the Russian minister, and paid out the money for him as agent. The implied meaning of it all was that Russia by corrupt means had sold to the United States a worthless waste for a fabulous amount, part of which amount it had used in accom- plishing it's unholy designs.
 The committee report mentions sim liar articles as having been published about the same time in many other newspapers.

Where Money Went

The findings of the committee, unanimously signed, showed that of the $7,2OO,000 appropriated, MT. Riggs, as agent for the Russian minister, re- mitted to London for the account of
