To them it is to be hoped Dr. Lorenz's story will teach its lesson.

The demand for such articles, however, set the machines of the white man in operation and now Indian trinkets and goods of almost every description are manufactured in large quantities by machinery. Those industries, therefore, are doomed to extinction, for they cannot eompete with the machine, The loss to the world from the destruction oi these | old arts is a much Reavier one than can be eanl) told.

CERTRE— LAND LAWS FOR ALASKA.: EPORTS from \’hshmgtcn are to the efleot R that despite the shortnegs of the session and the manifest unwillingness of many leading members of Congress to undertake new- legislation there wili he something done to provide proper laws for Alaska. It is not expected that all the desired | legislation will be given, but it is said the pressure for ' better land laws is very strong and there is a prospect that a bill dealing with that subject will be passed. Ong report from the capital, reviewing the general question cf legislation for the session, says: “The prospects are that the homestead act in. its applica- ! tion to Alaska will be so amended as to permit the taking up of homesteads of 320 acres in_extent and settlers will be permitted to prove up their claims in districts not yet surveyed - by the Government | officials. The existing commutation clause, howev r, will be repealed, in so far as it applies to that Terri- tory. Senator Quarles has introduced-a bill repeal- ing the stone and timber act and the commutation clauses applied to all homestead mmes but it is not likely to be enacted.” This demand for better homestead Iiws coming from Alaska will strike many people as strange, for but little thought has been given by outsiders to the pro- babilities of settling any considerable population in the Territory ouiside the mining districts. ‘A demand for better mining laws and the appointment of a Bureau of Mines in the Territory would have seemed a ‘more natural movement on the part of the Alaskans as their | first fight before Congress. In this case, then, it is once more the unexpected that. has happened. * Probably the Alaskan contingent at Washington have fouid. that they canriot get what they wish in the way of mining legislation and have turned to the home- stead laws on the principle that half a loaf is better than no bread. . Still the reports are that the Alaskans are predicting that with & land law adapted to- the needs of that Territory they can develop an agrioul- ture in some of the valleys that will add much to the wealth of the nation. As Alaska has no representative in Congress the entire Pacific Coast ‘delegation should make her fight their own. The development of the big Territory will help the whole Greater West, and it is nothing more than right that Congress should give to the pioneers of the land the laws which experience. has nrovén, to be needed for their welfare. i {ton, on't, We have had an illustration oi the working of the} i process of thzt economic law on this coast ROFESSOR GIFFORD PINCHOT.

Representatives of the University of California and the Stanford. University, - the California Water and Forest Association . and the!

Professor Pinchot is the most eminent He the Philippines, imposed upon is now returning from having fulfilled the duty him by President Roosevelt to make a comprehensive study of the forest growths of the Philippine islands. He will prepare and submit a report which will be of large.comercial and sclentific value. This will deal with the entire su jeet of woods that grow in the Philip pioes. The coming to California of Professor inchot at this time has a strong local nterest. The Big Basin will be visited by him in company with Professor Dud- ley of Stanford University, who is nwremr\ of the California Redwood mmigeion. It is expacted that he will ggest a working plan for the preser- tion and care of the gigantic semper- virens trees that have siood thousands of years in the Big Basin. Problems of great importarce have also { arfeen concerning -the forests that clothe he western slopes of the Sterra Nevadas.

Do you want to know everything about anything that took place in the year just gone? Do you know in what month the most things happen all over the world every year and why? Do you know on what particular day of the year all these strange things take place as they do? Do you know, for instance, that every nation on the globe must now make war according to fixed rules, and that those rules were only made last year? Do you know what those rules are? Do you know how many airships really workec last year, or the remark- able things that were accomplished by North Pole explor- ersP When some one asks you what was the most stupen- dous accident last year of course you think of the 35,000 lives lost at Mont Pelee, but was that the biggest accident? De you know when and where and how the biggest disaster occurred? Do you know what was the strangest crime on record? Do you want to know the latest records for everything in love and war, politics, finance, science, art, crime, in short, EVERYTHING ABOUT EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN FOR THE PAST YEAR? Well, then, just get the SUNDAY CALL of January 4, 1903. It will be the most astonishing fount of knowledge you ever saw. There is absolutely no event of any importance whatever that is not recorded in THE SUNDAY CALL'S TABULATED REVIEW OF 1902. If you are in business of any sort this is something to file away—a bureau of ready information always at hand. If you want to read simply for amusement you’ll be surprised over the number of things you have forgotten or have never even heard about. However, as this original and unique review is a special sup- plement in itself, the SUNDAY CALL MAGAZINE contains ever 80 many features besides. Just read about some of them. Have you fathomed the strange personality of the author of THE “COLONEL KATE” PAPERS yet? The next brilliantly satiri- cal lrflch will be, “THE WOMAN WHO WO0O0S OVER A CHATING DISH.” ° In the line of fiction you will get one of the best short stories . ever written, “A CHILD OF CHRISTMAS,” by JOEL CHANDLER HARRIS. Another splendid journalistic achievement is THE SUN- DAY CALL’S NOVELTY ART CALENDAR for 1903. It gives you three calendars in one—a big one for a mural decoration, a smaller one for your desk, and a compact and complete e.lndn your watch case.
