TEACHING IILITERATES

Five million persons in the United States who are more than 10 years
 old can neither read nor write. To meet this situation, the' General Federation of Women's Clubs. the American Legion, the National Edu- cation Association, and the United States Bureau of Education more than year ago called a conference iii Washington of persons interested in the reduction of illiteracy. An outgrowth of the conference was the appointment by the Commissioner
 of Education, by request. of a rep resentative committee to recom- mend subject matter and methods of teaching native and foreign-born adult illiterates. The work of this
 committee is embodied in Bulletin No. 8, 1925, Elementary Instruc- tion of Adults, by the Chairman, Charles M Herlhy, Massachusetts, State Supervisor of Alien Edu- t1onState Supervisor of Alien Edu- cation. It comprises a simple and practical method of instruction in Rreading, writing, conversation, spell ing, and simple arithmetic especial Fly adapted to adult illiterates.- 4a aska School Bulletin.
 (Reading the Empire and Chron- < sicle we somehow got the impress sion that illiteracy was rampant lalone in Alaska and that the poor
 Indian for that reason was a men, yace to the Territory But when
 Prof Henderson, Commissioner of
 Education declares that 5,000,0OO

leoers, physical degenerates import ed committing crimes against na- ture and scattering physical filth and disease in the land.
 No. But they damn Delegate Sutherland for exposing those con- ditions and forcing the packers to insist on a better class of cannery labor. Look at the report of Cop rernol, who declares that conditions arc far improved over that of last year; where last year there were 20 criminals removed from the Bristol Bay section alone, this year there were none Were conditions as we'll as they would have us be- liave then why the removal of 20 criminals. The regulations called for this year are but the direct re- suit of the exposure made by Suth- erland. We have read the Hearst article and certainly no one but of the literati can construe defamation of the entire Territory.
 However, so long as Troy, Morris sey are proud of and resent the un- moral and filthy degeneracy of such cannery labor, they should not both CT with staying in Alaska where a higher type of citizenry is desired

OBTAINING ALASKA ,


 The alleged independent party is making lot of political smoke out of the alleged defamation of the good name of Alaska. Sutherland did it they say. He it is who has brought shame upon Alaska Dr. Wilson is oft quoted for declaring certain conditions in Alaska incom- parable even in heather lands. But we do not see them quoting the pe- tition of the Mothers of Ketchikan who declared conditions intolerable ror the Indian Mothers who peti- toned that their children have the chance to grow up in proper at mosphere. Nor do we see them publishing, much less refer to the Grand Jury report to the Judge at aldez, a report signed by eleven decent women and eleven respect able men yet which would not be permitted in the United States mails.

industry and population as we'll The aims of the so-called indepen- dent party is conservation of vested interests. How can party domin- ated by attorneys representing the packers represent their constitu- ency honestly and at the same time accept retaining fees from packing interests?
 The conditions existing today are intolerable in the fisheries fields and the only remedial measure, without loss of population, is the absolute abolition of the trap sys- tenn. If the electors believe that the so-called independent voters ticket will better the conditions and improved legislation will be secured, then they should cast their ballot for that party. But so long as their official and subsidized press are an- .i-fishermen in their propaganda it will be we'll for the voters to look before the leap.

of O'Malley

The unsatisfactory economic con- dition which the fishermen face this year according to MT. Ritchie ''is due to the untiring efforts of MT. O'Malley." MT. Locken, "independ- ent" candidate for the legislature just recently declared the condition is due entirely to Delegate Suther- land. We don't think Locken knows anything about the fisheries and be- cause of his intensive" study of the situation Ritchie should know more about the promulgation of re- gulations and rightly lays present conditions at the right door. That regulations and effort as creates hardship and depletes population as we'll as the fisheries shows his state of mind and the trend of legislation to which the so-called independent ticket is pledged.
 As matter of fact, Ritchie spent a couple of hours in Petersburg with che packers giving no ear to the fishermen or those advancing their cause. He might have listened, out of respect to one or two, but he for got all about it before he was out of port an hour.
 The packs this year to those con- versant with the fisheries situation bespeaks complete depletion of the salmon streams within the next ten years unless honest effort at con- servation is made.
 The aim of the Republican nom- inees is honest conservation of this

FISHERMEN ARE SATISFIED

Everyone seems to be satisfied with the present salmon fishing re- gulations and they seem to be suc- cessful, as the large packs this season would indicate, and to the entire satisfaction of the fishermen. This success, I think, is due to the untiring efforts of MT. O'Malley, U. s. fish commissioner, who is contin- ually on the ground during the fish ing season. No new reulations are contemplated by the fisheries bu- reau, but if any changes should be decided upon, they will be made by MT. O'Malley."
 Such is a statement of Lawrence R!tchie, private secretary to Secre- tary of Commerce Herbert Hoover MT. Ritchie made trip throughout tuo IellIIoIy IuFeSClSdtIuS Iue fisheries. The conclusions to which he has arrived are being broadcast ed as fact because of his official po- siticn. It carries weight for upon his report to Hoover along with the recommendations of O'Malley hangs the fate of the fishermen of Alaska.
 ''The entire satisfaction of the fishermen" Go where the fisher men congregate and ask any fisher man if the conditions in the indus try are to his satisfaction. Ask him it he made wages. Ask him if it is possible for a fisherman to go out and fish anywhere without violating the laws and still earn sufficient to pay his working expenses. Ask the fishermen of Ketchikan what the average catch was this summer and he will tell you 1000 which is just Q fair catch in better days Ask the fisherman if he benefited by the 13O, GOO case pack of the Petersburg Packing Company and he will tell you that the average catch of the men working for this cannery was not more than 10000, which in bet ter days could be caught in one Set Ask the fishermen of Sitkoh Bay and they will tell you that high boat there shared $SO. to the man. Go to Wrangell and the conditions are not any more satisfactory. MT. George Barnes, one of the owners Of the Sanitary Packing Company just few days before he left for sunny California expressed himself as he ing sorry for the fishermen who did not make a decent living wage this summer. Report from the West Coast of Prince of Wales is no bet ter.

and the perfecting of earthly con
ditiOns. That is one reason why the
Bible sets forth the fact that there
will be a CloSenesS of relation
ship between heaven and earth
under the conditions of the mil
lennium time and the eternity
that follows. There will be commerce
between heaven and earth, just as
there was in the beginning, when in
the Garden man walked and talked
with God. Indeed. we have some
foretaste of this already even in 'this
world. We have some of the sweet
reSss of heaven even in this life, in
the fellowship with God and his peO-
pie. The old hymn is true:
The hill of Zion yields
thousand siered sweets
Before We climb the heavenly heights
Or walk the golden streets.
The Bible nltkes clear that the
center of the Paradise of God and
His eternal home--the seat of His
Almighty governments a glorious
city. I'VE have there no continuing
city, but we seek one to come" For
at last man is a social being. and

Bible tea ching that heaven Is city.
The Bible makes clear that in this
eternal city, which is the home of the
redeemed, there will he no more sin
or suffering, sorrow or pain. but all
will he perfection--without limitation
or flaws. That the government of
this vast universe centers IN heaven
and expresses itself in the power Of

expression 1.-The Lamb in the midst
