fhere is a Chicago writer who claims

any follower f the muses now iv-
lle began' trying for literary lion
at the age of 14. Soon after that
le he determined to make writing his
fcfewsion. With -this end in view he
pk great, pains to get himself a lit-
kry education. He neglected mathe-
Itics, economics, etliics and almost
ry other branch for belles lettres.
nile he was in school he contributed
he college pnper with considerable
cere. After being graduated he
iked abopt for some permanent news
ier connection. This he did not find
readily ns he had expected. The
Ed was overcrowded. However, as he
1 inherited means , he did not mind
iting n little while. In the mean-
ic, though, he determined to submit
itter regularly. He did this for n
ig while, but the forms continually
sed without his productions. After
rolonged taste of this he gave up in
pair, swearing that working for
rnal journals was a thankless task
1 a dog's life, anyway. Tie then tried

ressity of writing a book, ne cast

uld sell well. He finally chose for

kde a bargain with a printer whereby
p latter was to bear part of the ex

SITKA. Alaska, Oct. 17.
Via SEATTLE. Wash., Oct. 12.
"Those accistomed to think of Alaska
ts an out-of-the-way territory Inhab
tcu only by Illiterate whites and still
mor Ignorant savages will be a-itoa-Idied
to learn that the Territory Is
more favored than any other sH-tlon
of the T'iiited States In the matter of
public I'chnolM. People l:i other parts
of the I'mIoii know po llttk f f this land
oi ij'il.l ihat everythinir concernli!1; tt
l.i nny to them, but the above slate
l.ieiil will be an especial surprise. Vet
It l.t i.bsoluu ly true. I'ncle Sam la more
pene-ous to bis children la the Great
Norti-.west than to any of his other lit
tle ones. It Is not his fault that they
are not further advanced in knowledge
than the public school children of New
York, Chicago or even Boston.
Congress makes nn annual appropri
ation for the establishment and main
tenance of public schools throuKhout
Alaska, and the Territorial Commis
sioner of Education, appointed by the
Secretary of the Interior, has full
power to apply this money as he may
see lit, either to the building of new
schools, to be maintained entirely by
the Government, or to subsidizing paro
chial nnd mission schools and helptr.K
to support those already established.
Ills judgment Is final, nnd upon him
rests a responsibility heavy enough to
be a burden to any one man the civ
ilization nnd education of all the thou
sands of white, Creole, Indian, Eskimo
and MonRolliin children. In whose little
hands He. to a large extent, the future
of this great treasure-house of Amer
ica. noble Men at AVorU.
Missionaries of every creed are scat
tered over this broad land to work for
the Chrlstlanlzatlon ot the native and
half-breed children, and the mental de
velopment of the sons nnd daughters of
the white settlers. They are noble
workers In a noble cause, and much
pood has been accomplished by their
tireless energy and indomitable cour
age In the face of many difficulties.
Hut It Is doubtful that, with all their
pluck and perseverance, they would
have achieved such great results had
not the Federal Government appreci
ated and satisfied tho need of ample
capital with which to push the cam-
palgn against heathenism, The mis
sionaries were the pioneers; Uncle Sam
Is the sound financial backer of the
philanthropic enterprise.
Two obstacles have made educational
work In Alaska extremely difficult the
roving habits of the natives and the
stupid, mulish antagonism of the Rus
sian Church to all things American. As
to the first. It Is disappearing with tt)e
advance of civilization; the second Is
more deeply rooted, founded as It Is on
intense bigotry and violent race preju
dice, and many years will be required
to overcome It. It Is Inbred In every
native with the least drop of Russian
blood In his veins, and Is shared by
many of unmixed aboriginal descent.
Special legislation will be required to
radicate the evil.
It must be remembered that the Alas-
wm friri -t-amtatTyi - jr.iR?
kan aathre la distinctly antl-protre
, slve. Thllnrlt and Eskimo are equally
I aatlsfled with their respective modes of
! life, and passively resent any attempts
at amelioration of their condition. A
Thllng-lt who haa not, with his Immedi
ate ancestors, been subjected to strong
civilising Influences for many years,
would rather sleep on the ground. th
the rain pouring upon his bare skin,
his head alone sheltered under his In
verted kayak or canoe, than repose on
a new folding-bed In the best room of
the Occidental Hotel. The Eskimo much
prefers his stuffy Igloo, or hemlnpher-
I I t a
"ow nul. "e most comraoaious
f mm dwelIlnBs. Both races have
ts8 regard for personal comfort than
any oiner people that has ever Inhab
ited the North American continent. A
steam-heated flat would drive any Es
kimo or ThllnKlt to suicide.
Trnnaey I KncourHKcd.
Fo when their children, after much
persuanlon by mlaslonurles or Govern
ment teachers, are finally persuaded to
go to school, the parents are miserable,
and prophesy darkly the unhappy end
of their Iconoclastic ofTKprlnK. JX-spltn
the mii:t positive promises, they do
their best to keep the little ones at
home us much ns possible. Truancy
Is encouraged more or less actively by
the parents of. nearly every native
child, while the Creoles und other mixed
breeds prefer to send their children to
the numeroiiH parochial schools estab
lished by the Russian Church.
The HusBlan clergy are Just ns Inim
ical to the missionaries of the Human
Catholic Church as they are to those of
all Protestant denominations, and
they regard even the lay touchers di
rectly In the employ of the I'nlted
States Oovernmi'iit with extreme sus
picion. They violently oppnse the In
troduction of American educational
metliod:, nnd tell the Creoles, Indians
p.nd Eskimos that the missionaries nnd
Government teachers are di-Hlgnlng
persons, whose ultimate rim U to alien-
ate the children from their parents.
I rnfortunately, this accusation Is not
without foundation. The stern neres
i sllits c,f civilization require that the
pupils lie sepnrated from their adult
relatives In order that the Rood results
accomplished by the teachers shall not
Im counteracted by barbarous Influ
ences. After ten months of seclusion
lu a seminary, or twice as many of con
stant attendance ;,t H ay school, all
that tt Thlliiicit. or Eskimo, student ha
lenrned may be swept out of his mind
by a brief return to primitive ways of
life. It Is not conducive to a hl?h plane
of thought to live In a six-foot lirloo
with n half dozen other persons, who
keep themselves smeared with III-sm.il-Inir
preas" and share the Reneral couch
with a pack of sledge dogs. Even the
reml-clvHt.ol Indians are Intolerable
to Caucasian nostrils.
Ave rime of Attendance l.oiv.
Most of the Alaskan schools, public
and parochial, are open about 1T." days
In the year. The avorape attendance
1b extremely low, 40 per cent, being
considered good. All that the mission
aries and Ciovernment teachers can do
does not persuade the Thllngits and
Eskimos to make their children attend
school regularly. The fact that the
parents are still forced to wander many
miles In scorch of new hunting and
fishing grounds frequently causes the
loss of the brightest pupil just when
the little ones ar becoming creditable
to the school. Once lost, a pupil Is fel-

Tins Commissioner of Education
builds Government schools wherever
tho need for them exist Indeed, when
ever the opportunity offers. Many of
them are useless at present, as they are
so remote us to muko anything ap
proaching a fair attendance out of the
question. Federal Inspectors have crit
icised the worthy Commissioner for
thus building for the future, but that
distinguished gentleman, secure in the
autocratic power conferred upon him
by Congress, goes serenely on his way,

Thirty. re Alaakaa ftraaola.
According to the latest national re
port there are thirty-five schools In
Alaska, of which sixteen are main
tained entirely by the United States,
and nineteen are controlled by
churches and benevolent societies. Two
of the latter are supported In part by
this Government, five by the Kiisslsn
Imperial Government, four by the Pres
byterian Hoard of Home Vlsslons. one
by the Hoard of Missions of the Prot
estant Episcopal Church, one by the
Human Catholic Church, one by the S!s
tirs of St. Ann, one by the Holy Synod
of Kus!a, one by the American Branch
of the Swedish Kree Mission Society,
one by the Swedish Kvangellcal l'nhn
and two by the North American Com
mercial Company. In accordance with
