Mr. V. S. Oambrll , one ot the teachers
In the public schools of Alaska , has HCiit to
the National Iliirrau of I-Mtiratlnn an In-
nt 'tietlve report on the proRres * of oiluratlonal
work In that faraway territory , HP Rlvcs
on IntorrstlnR account of the manner In
which Esquimau children acquire an edtira-
tlon. He Is located on St. Lawrence Island ,
UnrliiR sea , nnd haa a school of fifty-two
scholars. He began tcachltiR In November ,

St. Lawrence Island IB about as far removed
from the civilized world as It Is possible fern

OPCO a year , and when thin Is received '
news It contains Is several months old. Thej i'
opcnliiR of n school on the Island was cause I
for Rrrcit excitement ntnonR the natives. The
vlllaup was prar-tlrally one family , tmvliiRJ ]
Intermarried for many Rcnerntlons. They arpj
too fat- from the mainland to mlnplB with |

Not often In a principal reason for a ro-
ntarkablo result more clearly set forth In
n few figures than that by Charles U. Skin
ner , fuiperlntomlciit of public Instruction of
New York state , In the opening of hl ml-
tlrcfis as piesldent of the National Educa
tional nf < < oclatlon , at Its recent session In
( Milwaukee , Win.
The whole civilized world has wondered ,
eaju' Harper's Weekly , at the power of the
United States to receive and assimilate the.
great unending Hood of foreign population
which has pourgd In upon It during the last
half century. .Many reasons have been as
signed , and prominent among them an edu
cational sjstem which takes the children of
foreigners and persistently , unceasingly
moulds them into Intelligent citizens as they
grow to manhood and womanhood.
To compare this system with those of
European nations , Mr. Skinner announced
that while France spends annually pci
capita on her army and 70 cents per capita
on education , the United States spends $1.35
for education nnd 39 cents for her army.
Other natlonalltliH were Included In the
statement. To ehow Just what the figures
mean , the army expenditure of each nation Id
reduced to $1 per capita and the corresponding
spending educational expenditure ascer
tained ,
U Is a long reach from the group of
European Indicators up to that of the United
Statcc. It Is to remembered , too , that
th s very large expenditure Is for the com-
jnon schools , In which the children of for-
elRtiero receive their education. More than
this , It Is to be remembered that about
Blx sevenths of this expenditure Is made In
the northern and wc.tcnv states , where niort ?
than nine-tenths of all the foreign-born popu
lation flndti Its home.
These facts are not presented to claim
( hat thta expenditure has ax Ita prime ob
ject the education and moulding of the for
eign clement. That part of the result of
our educational s\stcm is of course Inci
dental. All the Bame , however , the rcHiilt
Is just as beneficial and just as much a
matter of fact as though It were the prin
cipal object of the system. Taken as a
whole , the common school training results
In leaving only about , 3 per cent of the na-
tlvo born white persons over 10 years of
ago ( Including , of course , the native born
children of foreigners ) in the northern and
iWCJlorn otateu to bo classed as Illittrata-i.
The native born whites arc nlmo t 80 per
cent of thu total population of these states ,
anil are therefore the greatly dominating ele
ment of the country.
These considerations plainly Introduce the
Etlll more Important meaning of the widely
separated Indicators of the dial. The ability
to read and write opens the door to all
knowledge. Uctildrs giving this the trainIng -
Ing In our common schools Implants that
grain of ambition in the Individual which
grown Into expenditure for material things.
Thn constant demand for material things
callc for the employment of the multitude.
The resultant wage payment and Its constant
expenditure by the wage earner produce that
rapid circulation of money which is the
basin of prosperity.
All our nutnrnl wealth of mines and for-
ts'a and lands would avail nothing without
tlm demand for their products. Ignorance
end the lack of ambition make no demand.
. If the demand be lacking employment Is not
to be hud. Without employment money ,
however plentiful , dors not circulate , and
money Idle furnishes no material progrcHs.
The natural conditions for great material
development have existed for untold agcf ,
and would have remained undeveloped today
bad not knowledge , ambition and employ
ment combined to open mines , fell forenta
nud cultivate the soil. A people may have
liowledge ( and ambition , but without cm-
jiloyment to bring money Into hand ambition
cannot bo eatlslled and therefore demand
for production Is not forthcoming. If ambl-
tlon bo lacking there Is no disposition to
demand. If knowledge be lacking employ
ment Is Impossible ,
It Is not forgotten that employment Is
nlno a great educator In Us way ; and yet
\vo nri > at lat't compelled to come back to
the common school an the giver of the
ability to resul and right , and as the inccptor
of ambition In the young mind. Tlu-so two
are so powerful factors of national progress
that the dial and Its indicators throw much
light not only on the akalinllatlon of the
foielgn I'lemuit , but also on the material
progress'Of ' the country. An education , not
lor war for peace and prosperity.

John L. nittlngcr , the St. Joseph editor
just appointed to bo consul at Montreal ,
owes his distinction to n cerlcs of singular
Incidents which occurred during an excit
ing campaign In Missouri several years ago ,
relates the New York World. Mr. Mc-
Klnley , then n congressman , was stumping
the state , and Mr. Hittinger was a member
of the escorting party. There Is a otrons
personal resemblance between the two men
and one Is easily mistaken for the other.
The fatiguing labor of Incessant speechmaking -
making brought Mr. McKlnley to the vcrgo
of collapse. It was decided that In the
emergency Mr. Illttlnger should take his
place. Tlilu was done , and thousands of
applauding farmers wasted their Energies on
Illttlnger under the Impression that It was
thu great apostle of protection. As a result
of this Mibstltuto work Mr. McKlnley always
had an unusually warm feeling for the
editor , and. when mentioning the subject ,
says that his only complaint Is that Illttlnger
niMdc better speeches than ho did.
Liu'l April Mr. Illttlnger came hero to
plead thi1 caute of a friend who desired to
bo postmaster of St. Joseph. The appoint
ment promised to arouse a factional tight
ami the president urged him to take the
position himself. This ho refused to do.
It was augmented that ho select some other
place. Ho declared his disinclination to en-
gayn In the government service. Later ,
when calling on the pic&ident , Mr. Illttlnger
ald that If the disposition to provide for
him still existed and a plum should happen
to drop on his head , he would lllio It to bo
the consulship at Montreal ,

NEW YORK , AIIR. Jy.-Henry Clews , head

writes :
The securities markets continue to follow
the zigzag roiir.se which we have foro-
shndowod ns likely to characterize the cur
rent of operations throUKhont the summer
and Into inc fnll months. It could not well
b' ! otherwise. There Is no force equal to the
tusk of movliiR uninterruptedly upward the
Kit nt mass of securities now restliiR upon
tin- market or liable to be forthcoming
under n larRo advance In prices. Kvcry
liraetlcnl financier knows thnt to largely
rnlse thr prices of the $10,000COO,000 of se
curities represented on the New York stock
exchange must bo the work of much more
than .1 month or two. It Is a process Hint
encounters n variety of counteractions. H
must ho accompanied with a steady Rrowth
of ronlldfiico In the causes that are utitmnc-
Ing values ; and , If It goes faster than that
process , U will have to contend with the
obstacle of rcnllzlni ; by the InvostltiR class.
In the ptescnt rase , the rise has been based
upon hopes rather than nccompllshed facts ;
nnd U ) on nil the hopes nre unquestionably
ViC'll founded , yet they have not the stime
Inspiriting forcens realities. It Is no small
experiment InVnll street trmnetiverliiR to

U Is not ensy to compute the amount of
money required as margins to support nn
excited speculation covering tills huge mass
of values. And we can discover only
through the experiment of experience what
amount of such funds Is within roach , after
the disturbing and disastrous condl'-lons that
Imv.- prevailed for the last four years.
Then , the "bears" we have always with
us and their power Is Increased In propar-
tlon u prices rise ; and as the market
broadens the weak spots Increase and the
pulnts Inviting attack multiply. We cite
these considerations to show that the work
of carrying up prices generally to the much
higher figures to which they arc lies'Ined
must occupy many months rather th.xn
a few week. " which ovcrsangulno opernton
have allowed for the performance. We
may expect the course of the market to be
thut of a rising zigzag ; Hist nn advance
and then a reaction which wipes out part
of It ; then a still higher rlee followed by n
pattlal relapse ; and so on until the market
culminates In a top-heavy condition nnd
topples over of ltd own welpht. It would
not bo nurprhlng If this process ot eleva
tion take ? the next twelve mouths for Its
completion. The most successful way of
dealing on n market of this character Is to
take moderate profits , und buy In again
upon the next drop.
At the present time the market Is 'held
In check by the summer absence of an Im
portant class of operators , and yet the dally
transactions average about -130.000 shares.
There Is still sufllclent uncertainty about
the corn crop to encourage the "bears" to
Indulge in wild stories of disaster to that
grain , which Inil'ience people who know
nothing about the facts. The'pessimist ' ele
ment finds satisfaction also In the continued
sales of London or. this market , resulting
from the growing firmness In the money
market there nnd apprehension of ship-
ments of gold to New York. These reallz-
Ines , however , produce no serious Impreu-
slon on prices here , though they contribute
toward deferring the beginning of gold im
ports. On the other hand , London orders
to buy are beginning to appear , which 'In
dicate a coming turn of the tide In the
London market. The following from the
London Times never very friendly to our
in v "linen ts Is significant :
"Many holders are becoming anxious to
operate In 'Americans , ' now that their prlcrs
have risen and that so many elements seem
likely to work In their favor during the next
few mouths. Prudent people are , of course ,
aware that the evident desire of the Amer
ican governinfnt to shelve the question of
currency reform bodes 111 for the United
States In the distant future , but speculators
do not trouble themselves about what will
happen In Inree years ; what they care about
Is wnat will happen In three months , or
throe weeks. No one can Invest In any but
the very highest class of American bonds
and feel thoroughly easy about them when
they are In his box , but now that they have
begun to rise and are still rising there are
'Plenty ' of people who will buy them In the
hope of securing a prollt within a few
months and getting fair Interest during that
period. "
This Is common sense forecasting , nnd we
are likely to sec Its fulfillment before long.
This market has yet to receive Its main
stimulus. It has risen so far upon anticipa
tions. When we witness the realization In
uniform large increases of earnings among
the railroads ; when the swelling of the In
terior demand for merchandise based on
dollar wheat has told Its talc In the dis
tributing markets ; when the Increased de
mand for goods begins to advance commer
cial values ; when our enormous cotton crop
reaches thu Htage of marketing ; and when
another large surplus of exports over im
ports brings n free Importation of gold then
we shall have the force of things seen In
place of the hope of things unseen , and AVall
street will witness Eiich a harvest as It has
not neon for many years past. A few weeks
more will land us In that stage of the great
recovery ; which , however , Is not to be ex
pected to exhaust the upward tendency o. "
prices.

NI3W YOIUC , Aug. 29. The Financier
says : The statement of the associated banks
for the week Is favorable and reflects the
Hte-idy Increase of general business through
out the entire country. The greater part of
the Increase of loans can bo accounted for
In commercial loans and rediscounts from
country districts. The Increase In legal.s
about offsets the decrease In specie , leaving
little difference in the reserve since last
week. The deposits of the National City
banks show an increase of $2G53iiOO , leavins
a decrease among the other banks of $1,657-
liOO. It was expected by every one that the
heavy withdrawals of currency and demands
from the Interior would have caused a de
crease , In the reserve , but this stands much
the sainci as last week. The extra deposits
of the National City have been the factor of
no change tuklrig place. The movement of
currency to Interior points * during the week
has been considerable , the National Hank
of the Itepubllc alone having shipped nearly
$1,000,000. During the ensuing week tbero
are certain to bo further heavy calls on New
Yoik for currency ami thu next statement
will undoubtedly xhow considerable changes.
Everything Indicates that the country Is
fairly launched on the. sea of prosperity.

operations Is bright. The political dis
turbances do not affect the money market
deeply and the trouble In India , It Is
thought , will be surely. reprerff-cJ with n
strong hand.
Tim money market gained steadiness and
rates are higher. Hold is still demanded for
cx'iort. Thu Hank of England ban taken
another 500,000 , making 2,5fOOOO in three

raised unlcsH the demand becomes * ; reut.
The possibility of export of gold to the
United States I * much discussed , but HO
long as America continues to buy American
sii nrltlen In London largo transfers of gold

the week touched the record fissure of 23id

The stock settlement , which wa above
the average , showed that stock was scarce ,
making "bearing" hazardous. The eiiormoua

railroad st'curltlfx , although speculators

Many new factors of n healthful character
have come to the frbnt this week. Most
Important Ii the Improvement In Iron
trade conditions. From everv Iron center n
now bustle Is announced. The old gospel
of Jay Gould still rules Wall street scntl-
mpnt thnt a ? lh ; > Iron market goes so go
stocks. One of the serious drawbacks In the
.market's development has been the lag
gard way In which the Iron trade linn nctctf.
It looks now at If It were In for a. boom.
High trade authorities say the Improve
ment will be slow ; about n week ago they
were all agreeing thnt there was going to
be no Improvement nt nil.
Next to the Iron trade's betterment the
most lnllucnll.il of helpful developments
during the week has been the reappearance
of foreign buyers. They have held off
ntubbornly. All tlie European newspnpern
and nil the European bankers have been
advising them , that they ought not to take
any risks In American stocks , thut the
movement was artificial and mere manipu
lation.
In many quartern learned disquisitions
nre appearing to show that the market Is
overbought ; that too many stocks arc being
carried on slim margins ; that the future
has been too much discounted. Those who
worry most over this are bear maiilpulat irs
short of stocks. In view of so much out
cry to this effect lutcro't can be found

HETT13II THAN A DECADE AOO.
A little consideration of contrasting fig
ures like these Is better than making ado
ever the fabricated bugaboo of overeu-
thuslasm. In there one railroad In that en
tire list with less legitimate1 tralllc than It
had ten years ago ? Is there one In the list
less Intelligently nnd honestly conducted
than It was ten years ago ? Is there a single
company In the list as well situated ten
years ago as It Is today ?
Is It not true thut every one of the entire
list Is In 1S97 Incomparably better off than It
was In 1SS7 , with more trnfllc on Its HIU-H.
with more economical administration , bet
ter In every way for the seasoning experi
ences that have crowded the last decade ?
The burdens that these corporations bore
ten years ago havedisappeared. . Auxiliar
ies that were drawbacks and hindrances
and making drafls upon revenue have now
Income prolltabltfeeders. . In this list only
one stock Is as high nbw as It was ten years
ago. This one St. Taul Is higher. Just
one-half of 1 per cent higher.
On an average tho" market value of this
list of twenty-llv'e stocks , prominent then
as now. Is today barely one-half what It was
ten years ago , though some of these stocks
( It Is needless to itemize ) have In the interim
been strengthened by/ actual cash contribu
tions from the Investors who ovn them.
In n long list of stocks there are new and
aggressive poolsatwork. . Some of them
are on rather thin Ice. They arc carrying a
little too much ot aoail to be comfortable
themselves or to'nermlt the market to be
comfortable if anything disagreeable should
happen to intrude. Stocks so situated are ,
however , comparatively few. In the great
bulk of standard stocks there Is no dominant
manipulation.
There Is genuine outside Investment buy-
Ing. Professionals started this , market , the
public has taken control of It. Profession
als sold out and began to pose as preachers
of conservatism anx'lous to get back at n
concession stocks thc-y could have taken a
profit on. Some of the professional clement
Wet back again by paying more for Its
stocks , but the rank and tile of the lesser
professional traders of the street who are
members of the Stoelt exchange arc still
out of the market , and lighting it becuusj
they have been left from' ' the start. Noth
ing could be funnier to a veteran than hear
Ing a member of the New York StVk ( ex
change preach conservatism to his cus
tomers. When such preaching Is as em
phatic as now It is In some professional
quarters cynics ought really be forgiven for
suggesting' that the custom Is not yet out
of fashion of going short against clients'
accounts.
SIGNS OF A BULL WEEK.
During : the coming week burring some.
national Interference there will bo activity
and strength probably In the whole Van-
derbllt list , most of the granger stocks. In
half n dozen of the conspicuous Indus
trials , and In a long list of the lower prieeiJ.
specialties. Western Union Is likely to be
taken hold of by the Gould tontlngent ;
It 1ms been lagging. New York Central ,
Canada Southern. Northwestern , Omaha ,
Chesapeake & Ohio , Tennessee Coal , St.
Paul. Hock Island , Burlington , Atchlson
he list Is too long for completion ; the list
of stocks In which there are at the close
of this week bull programs , for the week
to come. If pools with unlimited finan
cial backing can accomplish anything , most
of the stocks nre In for n sutHtnntial ad
vance , or at least for a rousing opening on
Monday. Amau with handsome profits ac
cumulated won't do himself much damage ,
however , I suspect , If , while cviTybody In
bidding and buying , he turns a few paper
profits Into cash. Taking prollts never
hurtsv This market is not , though , a mar
ket to get out of to stay out of. It Is
bound to be bigger. II. ALLAWAY.

OATTLK While receipts ) , seventy-three
cars , were liberal for Saturday and slightly
lurger than a week ago , there were only
about 1,200 cattle on f ale , the bahince being
consigned direct to the killers. There were
very few beeves among t'.ic offerings , and
cow stuff was In small supply , nearly every
thing being on the feeder order anil moitly
from the range.Vhllr > It has been n good
week In all braiv lies of the trsac , closing
prices nre n little Irwer than a week ngo
for beef grades , and feeder. * are below the
high point of the week , although higher
than fast week.
Huyers claimed about Hteady prices for the
few fed cattle here , considering quality , but
among sellers the gcner.il opinion was n
shade lower than yesterday and 10Tf15c
below Thur = day , which was the week's
high day , and sales made seum to bear the
la ter out. There were no really good cattle
here toda ; ' , and not many beeves of any
kind , but the few sold ranged from $4.00 for
common to $1.75 for very decent grades. A
few westerns sold to killers about like yes
terday , but feeders got nearly all offerings
from this source.
The four or Ilvo loads of cows were dis
posed of In good season , but were generally
a little lower , a dime off according to sales
men. Bulls were also a shade easier , t-x-
cept feeding grades , but veals sold Just ai'
well as ever.
The outside demand for feeders Is unusu
ally light on Saturday , nnd speculators gen
erally aim to get more or less concessions.
Today was no exception to the rule , al
though a few sales to country buyers
showed no decline. The market was ijuotii-
bly GfilOc lower , nnd rather quiet , but all
first-hands holdings were well cleaned up.

trading in cattle today , iccelpts being too small
to make a market. The. few tales made were at
prices unchanged from yesterday's ruling quota
tions. A large run on cattle IB expected next
Monday nnd It would occasion no miiprlM. If
8,0)0 western rangers should be received. Thus
far westerns have been coming slowly , the. season
being at least n month later than usual.
