ALL KINDS OF TROUBLE FOR
 DAWSON WOMAN ON WAY OUT

Mrs. Richard Oleson, who left Dawson a few weeks ago for the outside, had the misfortune to fall and fracture one of the bones of her right arm the first day out from Skagway, while on the Princess AL ice. On reaching Juneau medical attendance was summoned, the arm put in a cast, and she proceeded on her way to Vancouver without delay But on arrival at Vancouver more trouble awaited her, this time with the American immigration authori- ties.
 Mrs. Oleson was born in Norway, and, under the provisions of the new American immigration law. a quota of only five per cent of the people of any country residing in the States in 1910 is permitted to enter each year. She was detained in Vancouver for several days, as the quota from Norway had already been exhausted. However, with the assistance of a brother of her husband, Richard Oleson of this place, she was finally permitted to pass the boundary. Mrs. Oleson had resided for years in the States before coming to Dawson, and her husband is an American citizen.
 The native-born citizens of Cana da are permitted to enter the United Staes at any time. on satisfactory proof, but naturalized Canadians are subject to the restrictions oi the law.-Dawson News.

After numerous delays, due to multiplicity of causes, the old sew CTS running under the basement of the grade school building have been
 moved and a gas-proof water-ex- cluding cement floor laid over the contaminated ground through which the contents of the sewers had been seeping; and the toilets installed in their new, sanitary rooms in the basement and their accomcdations doubled The arrangement of the new rooms makes it impossible for the children using the toilets to wander into the other part of the basement as would be the tempta- tion with an open stair. A new drainage arrangement prevents the water falling above the school building from running under the building as was the case formerly.

or better, like a stool-pigeon, with
voluminous testimony to give before
the fancy little subcommittee Fall
was carrying around. She said that
Mexieans were laying waste their ma
tive heath and massacring Americans
right and left, that neither property
nor life of foreigners was safe. And
Falls u b. com m it tie promptly
brought in a recommendation to the
Senate demanding armed intervention
in Mexico. The Senate rejected
war, however, and Fall had to use
other means.
From the above quotation from the
Daily Herald it is seen that as quick
~ as Harding was elected, Fall made
his visit to Mexico City, saw Oregon
ank finally brought him "to reason"
with deal which would swap recog-
milton by the republicans and a large
loan by American bankers for "safe-
guarding investments in Mexico" and
reorganization of the Mexican rail-
ways"
Wall Street Gets Railways.
This Safeguarding of investments"
was the revocation of the retroactive
effect of Article 27-practica.1y null
lifying it, and the reorganization of
the railways was a turning over of
the nationally owned lines of Mexico
to private capital-Wall Street. The
Whole barter and sale of Mexican re-
sources in an itemized way, including
this railway reorganization, was
finally signed and sealed in New
York in the spring of 1923, by
Thomas w. Lamont, representing the
committee of International Bankers,
and Adolpho De La Huerta, then a
cabinet officer under Oregon and
now leading an abortive revolt.
A resolution was introduced Febru-
airy 10, in the Chamber of Deputies
in Rome calling for an investigation
of the concessions granted by Italy
to Sinclair's oil interests. The Oil
Scandal has become international.
The American government is uncov-
cred in its nakedness as a prostitute.
How about its "sister republic" to the
south? How about the Mexican
teapot?

IT HAT the depreciation Of petroleum
Il imperialists are not confined to
Wyoming and California feds is
taken for granted by anyone cog
infant with the nature of the animal.
But as the u. S. Senate investigat-
ing committee has few more
shocks coming its way if it carries
out the proposed widening of the in
vestigation to include concessions
granted American corporations in
foreign ountries-according to the
resolution passed on February 18th
it may be well to break the news
gradually and ease the shock.
With that humane consideration in
mind, let us lay aside the current
daily capitalist newspaper with its
stage-thunderous indignation against

the innocent" plunderers of the ma
tional resources and its present eff
forts to check the oily flood before it
seeps into the tombs of two dead
presidents. Let US recall that Stand
ard Oil was for many years waging
a bitter struggle against British in
terests led by Lord Cowdray for con-
troll of Mexican oil resources.
Then, let us read between the lines
of the following article referring to
recognitions between Albert Fall,
then U. S. Senator from New Mexico,
and President Oregon of Mexico, as
published in the London Daily Herald
on Dec. 10, 1920:
"The plan provides for the
prompt recognition of the Oregon
regime by the republicans, for a
large Mexican loan from American
bankers and for the eventual APP
pOintment of Senator Fall to super
wise the reorganization of the Mex
lean railways. >. Passing thru
Washington to lay details of the
arrangements before Senator Hard
ing at Marion, Senator Fall sig
nifcantly praised Oregon as a
man capable of safeguarding in
vestments in Mexico. A similar
unaccumstomed admiration of the
Mexican regime is being voiced by
the oil magnates and the Hearst
newspapers, which have hitherto
been VIGOROUSLY belligerent. Mex
leo has paid the price for peace with

NOTIn America.
The confluence of both republican
and democratic politics in the great
oil stream will be noticed by the in
c.usion of Hearst with Fall and
Harding. Perhaps this is why Hearst
recently Travelled long way to have
little talk with Coolidge. Hearst
papers have thus far been untouched
by Teapot oil, but how about Mexi-
can oil?
Fellow Crooks.
Besides, here is evidence that Fall,
intriguer and crook for Standard Oil
interests before he was appointed to
Harding's cabinet, must have been
known as such by Harding-indeed,
Fail hurried to Harding as to an ac-

whereby the Mexican people were

TRUTH, it is said, is stranger
than fiction. Strange as it may
sound, infants, at the tender age of
two and three years are actually pro-
ducing marketable commodities. The
sceptical attitude Of some towards the
expositions made by the ''New York
Welfare Commission" brings back to
my mind a recollection of my own
childhood; how every naturally chill
dren of the working class drift into
work; how parents with even the
warmest love for their children are
forced to send them to work.
As / remember my environment at
the age of three or Whereabouts was
the eldest of three children. My
father tho a barber was rorced thru
slackness in his trade to work as an
unskiIled laborer in a railway shop.
To add to the meager, insufficient
wages he did little barbering in the
evenings.
My nursery, the one room we all
lived in, was like a stage. Three
times a day the scene changed. In
the morning father could be seek
disentangling himself slowly, tho NOT
without impotence, from amongst the
little arms and legs strewn over and
around him in the family bed, swear
ing because it was cold, yet every
now and then throwing out an angry,
"Why didn't you wake me earlier,
didn't / tell you cold or no cold I'll
be sacked if get to work late. :.
We haven't enough money yet to open
up a regular barbershop. The wife,
my mother, barefootedly running
around preparing his breakfast,
would silently gesture TO him not to
make so much noise lest the children
wake up.
