 ority Report Made.
Continued krom Page One.)

The Foster bill, officially desig- mated as House Bill No. 3, is en- titled an Act to prescribe qualifica- tions of electors in the Territory of Alaska. It re-enacts the existing law and adds to it a new proviso designed, it is said, to curb mass voting of illiterates. The clause which the majority report condemns reads provided that no person who is unable to read the consti- tuition of the United States and to writo the English language shall be eligible to vote.
 Minority Report Vigorous.
 In his statement explaining why he recommended passage of the measure. Mr. Shepard said in part:
 "The Indians of Alaska consti- tute practically all of the illierates voting population of the Territory. While there are isolated instances among the Indians wherein indi- viduals have gone to school and have fitted themselves for the ob- ligaticns incident to the exercise of the elective franchise, an over majority of these Indians are, to my knowledge are illiterate. In numbers this class of voters con stitute about one thousand which in a total voting population of seven or eight thousand holds the balance of power.

CITY BASEBALL
 LEAGUE IS NOW
 0RCANIzEDH HERE
Mass Meeting Last Night Gray, President; Davis,
 Secretary - Plans.

The Juneau City Baseball League was organized last night at a mass meeting in the council chambers called at 7:30 o'clock. under the auspices of the Juneau Bremen. ] Latimer Gray was elected president and J. A. Davis, secretary A large crowd of men attended, there being no women and only three or four high school boys present.
 After considerable discussion, in which a number present expressed opinions. it was decided that the league will be comprised of five teams to be formed from the follow. ing local organizations: B. P. o. Elks, Loyal Order of Moose, Amer ,can Legion, City Firclnen and Fed eral government employees, to be known by the names of these or glnizations. Players will be lined rlp So that the talms will be we'll balanced, it being unnecessary for the players to be a member of the or ganization under which name they play. A member is to be appointed by each organization as manager of it's team.
 Secretary Davis IS ccmmunic ing today with the organizations named, giving the outline of the plan and asking for their agreement to the plan and Cooperation The success of the league will depend on its be- ing sponsored by the organizations, he said.
 Whom replies have been received from the organizations, another mass meeting will be called. at which time board of directors will be named to form the teams and all prospective players will be signed up for tryouts. It will probably be a month or six weeks after the board of directors begin work before definite announce. ment of the teams can be announced, Dlvis said. A city team will be chosen from tho league teams, to meet all outside hines.
 Although a large number of base ball fans in the city turned out at the meeting last night, the absence of women and high school boys was somewhat disappointing to the or. ganizers, Dayass aid. The meeting was called not only for baseball players among the men, but to get the younger boys faterested in the nsc.'t and for tho interest of women and young ladies in the city play ground, he added.

Policy Introduces Bill For Housing Museum
 And Historical Library

The movement to provide ade- quate housing for the Alaska Historical Library and Museum took on an official hue this morning when Representative Policy introduced a measure pro- viding for the creation of Ter ritorial Historical Library and Museum Commission and con taining a blank appropriation clause to cover cost of eonstrne- ton of a fireprocf structure. Mr. Policy said that no sum had been inserted as complete esti- mates on the cost Of construc- ton of a suitable building had not been obtained.
 The measure provides for the creation of a Commission b. ap- pointment by the Governor, the full membership to consist of the Governor, Secretary, Librar- ian and Curatcr and SIX dlree- lOIS. llle Va Nttoie IT dNlte- able, to be appointed from the Board of Managers of the All aska Historical Association.

selves readily to the machinations Of political charlatans. In the past ten years two contests for the office of Delegate to Congress have thrown the Territory into a turmoil and have caused incalculable damage to the people of Alaska In both these contests the principle point of dif- ference was the question of the il- legality of large numbers of Indian votes.
 Voted in Herds.
 It was claimed that these na- tives had been voted in herds and by means of perforated cardboard slips out the size of the official ballot in which the perforations were made to cover the exact spot upon which the political manipu- lator desired the native to place a cross It was claimed iu one of these contests that Mir Sulzer had been elected because of the control of these Indian votes by his sup- porters In the other contest ii was claimed that Mir Wickersham's sup- porters had used undue influence in obtaining the same vote. This situation has also been reflected in the politics of the First Division wherein large numbers of Indian voters are being manipulated by certain unscruplous individuals.
 Your Committee must therefore submit that the Bill should pass re- quiring these Natives to have an adequate understanding of the things concerning which they cast their vote and the persons for whom they vote and the principles of the Government of the United Stat es and it is therefore recommended that the Bill pass by minority of said Committed

FINDS TOBACCO GUILTY

Misunderstanding practically al
ways interferes with the working of
a school-boy's mind, and usually
slows up the thinking of an adult
This is the verdict of NJ. V. O'Shea,
nationally known educator and pro-
fessor of education at the University
of Wisconsin, after four years of the
most comprehensive and scientific in
vestigation ever conducted into the ef-
fects of tobacco on the human mind.
Prof. O'Shea announced his find
ings Thursday as the Macmillan COM
pany began publishing his new book
Tobacco and Mental Efficiency, an
elaborate treatise on the subject.
"All the evidence indicates that to-
baceo exerts a retarding and disturb
ing influence upon the intellectual
process of high school pupils" Prof.
O'Shea declared.
when a pupil begins to use tobac-
co the chances are that his intellec-
tual work will decline in comparison
with boy who abstains from tobacco.
This is not true in all cases, but the
correlation between tobacco and low
scholarship is sufficiently high to
warrant the statement that there is
a marked relation of carse and effect
between them"

LOSING SOIL FERTILITY

Fertility of soils in the Mississippi
valley is being rapidly exhausted and
radical changes in farming meth
DDS are needed to maintain the pro-
duction which has made this section
the greatest food producing section of
the world, according to members of
the agricultural commission of Ala
bama, in Chicago Friday on an timer
airy embracing many of the Mississ-
ippi valley states.
Restoring plant foods to the soil
and marketing are the two big prob
lens of the American farmer, they
said.
Years of cultivation Of one crop on
farms has caused land in the valley to
begin rapid descent in productivity.
they say. To relieve this, rotation of
crops must be introduced more gen.
orally and fertilizer must be used in
much larger quantities.

FIRE AT WHITEWATER

Whitewater-A loss of approx
mately $4,000 followed a fire at

the roof of the Bower business block

kenzie Rubber Co., laincoat manufac-
tuners, where it is believed to have
started.
Forty employees are out of work, as
the stock and machinery were de-
stroyed with loss Of between $4,000
and $4,000. Damage to the block is
$4,000, covered by insurance. The
insurance on the Mackenzie company
property ran out Is days ago and was
not renewed through oversight.
Six stores on the main floor were
temporarily put out of business OF
account of water damaging goods.
The volunteer fire department fought
for hours to bring the fire under
control.
