The number<lb /><lb />of depositors in England and<lb /><lb />Wales on December-31, 1896, was<lb />6,276,493, or one in five of the<lb />population, and the average<lb />amout to the credit of each de-<lb />positor was £15 14s. For Scot-<lb />land the figures were: Denosi-<lb />tors, 283,566 ; propoation, 1 in 15;<lb />amount, £12.

Aby other rule would<lb />wake 1t too easy for criminals to<lb />escape punishment. A _ burglar<lb />might plead that he was intoxi-<lb />cated when he robbed a house, or<lb />a murderer might plead that he<lb />was mad from drink. when he<lb />killed a wan; but such an excuse<lb />would not restore the dead to<lb />life nor would 16 protect the com-<lb />munity trom arepetition of the<lb />crime. Intoxication may some-<lb />times be an expianatioa, but it<lb />ought not to be considered 2<lb />defense."Brooklyn Eagle.<lb />An Unusual Offer.<lb /><lb />A most unusual offer is that<lb />made by Elder Joseph Ballou, of<lb />Lincoiv, county Kentucky. It is<lb />that he will pay $35 rewa:d for<lb />the arrest of every negro hog<lb />thief in the county and $50 for<lb />the capture of every white man<lb />who can be convicted of the same<lb />offense. Mr. Baliou was asked<lb />why he made the difference<lb />in the amount offered for the two<lb />races for the same charge. He<lb />answered: ~Because there is less<lb />necessity for a white man to steal<lb />than a negro, and ~is therefore<lb />much meaner of the whites to be<lb />guilty of such a depredation.�<lb /><lb />, The Administration Condemned<lb />Mr. Bryan received in the<lb />Greater New York last year<lb />235,618 yotes.

People in other parts<lb />of the Union know so liftle of this land<lb />of gold that everything concerning it<lb />is new to them, but the above state-<lb />ment will be an especial surprise. Yet<lb />it is absolutely true. Uncle Sam is more<lb />generous to his children in the Great<lb />Northwest than to any of his other lit-<lb />tle ones. It is not his fault that they<lb />are not further advanced in knowledge<lb />than the public school children of New<lb />York, Chicago or even Boston.<lb />Congress makes an annual appropri-<lb />ation for the establishment and main-<lb />tenance of public schools throughout<lb />Alaska, and the Territorial Commis-<lb />sioner of Education, appointed by the<lb />Secretary of the Interior, has full<lb />power to apply this money as he may<lb /><lb />see fit, either to the building of new |<lb /><lb />schools, to be maintained entirely by<lb />the Government, or to subsidizing paro-<lb />chial and mission schools and helping<lb />to support those already established.<lb />His judgment is final, and upon him<lb />rests a responsibility heavy,enough to<lb />~tbe a burden to any one man"the civ-<lb />jlization and education of all the thou-<lb />sands of white, creole, Indian, Eskimo<lb />and Mongolian children, in whose little<lb />hands lie, to a large extent, the future<lb />of this great treasure-house of Amer-<lb />ica.<lb />Noble Men at Work.<lb /><lb />Missionaries of every creed are scat-<lb />tered over this broad land to work for<lb />the Christianization of the native and<lb />half-breed children, and the mental de-<lb />velopment of the sons and daughters of<lb />the white settlers. They are noble<lb />workers in a noble cause, and much<lb />good has been accomplished by thcir<lb />tireless energy and indomitable cour-<lb />age in the face of many difficulties.<lb />But it is doubtful that, with all their<lb />pluck and perseverance, they would<lb />have achieved such great results had<lb />not the Federal Government appreci-<lb />ated and satisfied the need of ample<lb />capital with which to push the cam-<lb />paign against heathenism. The mis-<lb />sionaries were the pioneers; Uncle Sam<lb />is the sound financial backer of the<lb />philanthropic enterprise.<lb /><lb />Two obstacles have made educational<lb />work in Alaska extremely difficult"the<lb />roving habits of the natives and the<lb />stupid, mulish antagonism of the Rus-<lb />sian Church to all things American. As<lb />to the first, it is disappearing with the<lb />advance of civilization; the second is<lb />more deeply rooted, founded as it is on<lb />intense bigotry and violent race preju-<lb />dice, and many years will be required<lb />to avercome it. It is inbred in every<lb />native with the least drop of Russian<lb />blood in his veins, and is shaved by<lb />many of unmixed aboriginal descent.<lb />Special legislation will be required to<lb />eradicate the evil. ~<lb /><lb />It must be remembered that the Alas-<lb /><lb />kan native is distinctly anti-progres-<lb />sive. Thlingit and Eskimo are equally<lb />satisfied with their respective modes of<lb />life, and passively resent any attempts<lb />at amelioration of their conditions, A<lb />Thlingit who has not, with his immedi-<lb />ate ancestors, been subjected to strong<lb />civilizing influences for many years,<lb />would rather sleep on the ground, with<lb />the rain pouring upon his bare skin,<lb />his head alone sheltered under his in-<lb />verted kayak orT canoe, than repose on<lb />a new folding-bed in the best room of<lb />the Occidental Hotel. The Eskimo much<lb />prefers his stuffy igloo, or hemfspher-<lb />ical snow hut, to the most commodious<lb />of modern dwellings. Both races have<lb />less regard for personal comfort than<lb />any other people that has ever inhab-<lb />ited the North American continent. A<lb />steam-heated flat would drive any Es-<lb />kimo or Thlingit to suicide.<lb /><lb />Truancy Is Encouraged.<lb /><lb />So when their children, after much<lb />persuasion by missionaries or Govern-<lb />ment teachers, are finally persuaded to<lb />go to school, the parents are miserable,<lb />and prophesy darkly the unhappy end<lb />of their iconoclastic offspring. Despite<lb />the most positive promises, they do<lb /><lb />their best to keep the Httle ones at:<lb /><lb />home as much as possible. Truancy<lb />is encouraged more or less actively by<lb />the parents of nearly every native<lb />child, while the creoles and other mixed<lb />breeds prefer to send their children to<lb />the numerous parochial schools estab-<lb />lished _bz.the.Ruesian Church.<lb /><lb />hades ~ ~~ i he<lb />i IR igs ors i wn: Ril dame ee B00 o<lb />*t |<lb />ome en fe ee<lb />aa eR oe «ae �,�<lb />ia cena ee a as if<lb /><lb />.Jall Protestant denominations,<lb />o44they regard even the lay teachers di-<lb />HE IS GOOD TO HIS LITTLE ONES<lb /><lb />~| States Government with extreme sus-<lb /><lb />¢g s<lb />it ie ie ima et: He helen ein<lb /><lb />eee ean mamta me<lb /><lb />Pe ite ie ;<lb />i garage ES<lb /><lb />San ervey are just as imim-<lb />ical to the missionaries of the Roman<lb />Catholic Church as they are to those of<lb /><lb />rectly in the employ of the United<lb /><lb />picion. They violently oppose the in-<lb />troduction of American educational<lb />methods, and tell the creoles, Indians<lb />and Eskimos that the missionaries and<lb />Government teachers are designing<lb /><lb />ate the children from their parents.<lb /><lb />Unfortunately, ~this accusation is not<lb />without foundation. The stern neces-<lb />sities of civilization require that the<lb />pupils be separated from their adult<lb />relatives in order that the good results<lb />accomplished by the teachers shall not<lb />be counteracted by barbarous influ-<lb />ences. After ten months of seclusion<lb />in a seminary, or twice as many of con-<lb />stant attendance at a day school, all<lb />that a Thlingit, or Eskimo, student has<lb />learned may: be swept out of his mind<lb />by a.brief return to primitive ways of<lb />life, It is not conducive to a high plane<lb />of thought to live in a six-foot igloo<lb />with a half dozen other persons; who<lb />keep themselves,smeared with ill-smell-<lb />ing grease and share the general couch<lb />with a pack of sledge dogs. Even the<lb />semi-civilized Indians are intolerable<lb />to Caucasian nostrils.<lb /><lb />Average of Attendance Low.<lb /><lb />Most of the Alaskan schools, public<lb />and parochial, are open about 175 days<lb />in the year. The average attendance<lb />is extremely low, 40 per cent. being<lb />~considered good.

This last should<lb />be accomplished as speedily as possi-<lb />ble, for unless it be done it will be hard<lb />to make the Indians and Eskimos real-<lb />ize that they are tne children of Uncle<lb />Sam.<lb /><lb />Thiingits Learn Easily.<lb /><lb />The Thlingit learns English easily,<lb />for he has in his native vocabulary all<lb />the difficult sounds of the Anglo-Saxon<lb />tongue, such at tr, ing and hard and<lb />soft.th.

Two<lb />of the latter are supported in part by<lb />this Government, five by the Russian<lb />Imperial Government, four by the Pres-<lb />byterian Board of Home Missions, one<lb />by the Board of Missions of the Prot-<lb />estant Episcopal Church, one by the<lb />Roman Catholic Church, one by the Sis-<lb />ters of St. Ann, one by the Holy Synod<lb />of Russia, one by the American Branch<lb />of the Swedish Free Mission Society,<lb />one by the Swedigh Evangelical Union<lb />and two by the North American Com-<lb />mercial Company, in accordance with<lb /><lb />fItt:e grammar ana geogfaphy to both<lb />sexes; painting, carpentering, cooper-<lb />age and shoemaking to the boys, and<lb />sewing, cooking and general domestic<lb />knowledge to the girls.

But the Commissioner of Ed-<lb />ucation is not sure he can find many<lb />Russians who would be as/loyal to their<lb />trusts as is the good gentleman in<lb />charge of the, Karluk school, and he is<lb />slow to extend the experiment.
