EDUCATlON'S COST

The Alaska School Bulletin, published at Juneau by Lester D. Henderson, states that the per capita education in Alaska during the school year 92122 less than for several past in spite of the teachers salaries higher than during any previous year.
 In incorporated towns the cost averaged $97.31 each pupil enrolled compared with $105S4 the school year 1920-21 and $101.S2 for the school year 191920. The capita of individual schools from $58.26 at Sitka to $25054 at Nome. With the exception of Juneau and Wrangell which maintained 3S week-terms, all schools in session 36 weeks.
 In school districts outside of incorporated towns the capita cost $1O314 compared with $108.34 during the school year 192O-21.
 The largest enrolment is at Juneau which has 460 scholars and 17 teachers The smallest Eagle, which has nine pupils and teacher.
 One phase of the school question which has been overlooked is the increasing excellence of the teaching staffs, and of higher education, applying for Alaskan schools whereas few teachers of mediocre abilities the only available

Henderson the standards of the Territorial schools has been raised to a high point of excellence While the schools of the Territory cost the taxpayers nearly $300,00O, it is money well with increased efficiency schools rank with the best of those outside.- Seward Gateway.

FOR BETTER OR WORSE

That industrial and political unrest is prev alent in this country is true It is less preva- lent in the United States than elsewhere in the world The World War caused such an up heaval in economic conditions that no one need wonder that as it's aftermath dissatisfaction is widespread and noisily vocal. It is natural that the Republican party, being In power nationally, should today be the target of much of this dissatisfaction, and that the national administration and Congress should be sub iected to much criticism. That would be true no matter what had been done or left undone since the inauguration of President Harding. When the Republican party came into power if inherited governmental condition cha otic that the removal of the wreckage and the reconstruction of the national economic fabric has been task so gi gantic that In the nature of things it could not be completed to the satisfaction of everybody at time when the spirit of criticism is so generally rampant The Republican victory of 1920 was so overwhelm- ing that it was not to be expected the sixteen million voters who cast Republican ballots would be as we'll united in a remedy for the wrongs and abuses inherited by the party, as in the condemnation of these evils To expect that the program worked out by the new ad- ministration would in all respects suit every one, was to anticipate miracles-and the day of miracles is over, despite the professions of some political leaders who assure the people that if only given an opportunity they could so adjust the laws as to make everybody happy The politicians who deal in bunk ot this kind, who blame all the ills that flesh IS heir to on government, and claim that they have invented governmental reforms that Will supernduce the millennium, are either fanatics or crooks-and some of them are a combination of both.
 If the memories of national administration as administered by the Democratic politicians who are asking the people to turn the Repub- licans out and put them back on the job, were little older, perhaps it might be expected that the voters would take a chance on the inefficiency experts and doctrinaires who pro- duced the wreck Republican leadership has found it so difficult to repair satisfactorily. As it is, large majority of the dissatisfied Americans will manifest their preference for what we have over what we had.
