Twenty-nine deaths have taken place as a result of an Influenza epidemic at the Indian village of Alivik on the Yukon River in Western Alaska, it is reported In a relayed radio message received by the Episcopal Church headquarters here yesterday from ReV. John Chapman, head of the mission .there. The message. said that all the victims were parents and the responsibility for the welfare of 40 children was thrown upon the mission. It urged the immediate despatch of medical assistance and a sum of $3,000 for food and supplies. The appeal was supplemented by a despatch from Bishop Peter Kowe of Alaska, emphasizing the gravity of the situation. -and the railway would become a burden on the people. The province, however, had proved one of the best contributors to Dominion revenue. If the Canadian people had had knowledge of the resources and possibilities of British Columbia which was now possessed, the agreement would have been very different. Counsel read the correspondence In regard to the' lands from Attorney General Manson and also from the counsel for the province and pointed out that the lands, although the Dominion declared them valurlefw for agriculture, were held valuable on account of the timber on which large sums had been realized.

Price Five Cwit IRISH REPUBLICANS ARE EXCLUDED WILL NOT TAKE OATH SO NOT ALLOWED TO ENTER DAIL The Letter Box I Valera and Followers IJEHAU' OF TEACHERS Editor, Daily News: I am told that the salaries of the school teachers of Prince Rupert have recently undergone a substantial reduction. This, I believe, is a matter which should command the attentive thought of every citizen of Prince Rupert. It concerns not only the parents of school age children, but of every member of the community. It is generally admitted by intelligent people that a nation's greatest asset lies In its children. Similarly the true value of any community must be measured by the type of individual it produces. I need not stress this point, for I feel that we are all sensible, enough to admit that all our civic enterprise, our elevator, our Dominion Day celebrations, count for nothing if we fail to produce the right type of youth from out the home of this city. Education, and particularly the work of the primary and secondary schools which have to deal with children In their most formative years, Is one of the most Important factors In the moulding of youth and In the production of the Intelligent cjtiren. The; best schools and the best teachers cannot be any too good for the carrying on of this work. The recent cut In salaries will most certainly tend to lower the general efficiency of bur schools. The bettar teachers will seek other positions and their places will be taken by less efficient individuals who will work for less money. Can we afford to thrust this handicap upon the children? Is it fair or wise to pursue this policy which In the face'of this reasoning must K-em extremely short sighted, and ill advised? Teachers as a class have always been made the butt of efforts towards pseudo economy. I say pseudo economy because true economy cannot lie In the weakening of the foundations of our citizenship. No city would dream of sayjng to the medical man, "Doctor, we have decided to cut your fees"; or to the lawyer or engineer, "We shall see that you.are paid so much and no more." Yet the training which our teachers must undergo is very similar with respect to time and effort. Why then should we do this in the case of a profession which is of cciual, If not of greater importance? We cannot hope to attract the right type of individual td the extremely important profession of teaching under such circumstances as these. The cilv. too. will suffer In Its nitmriinn nf new comers. One of the first things that parents enquire about when seeking resi-ilnnrn In n now citv are the srhnnla nnrl nn schools with U!l fWiinhl fpnrhnrs can bring about the results which will attract li.i ro.lt a nf arhnnl Hire children. I wrltn this because I feel it Is the duty of a citizen to consider thrum Imnnrt nnt. tiroblems. and while I realize that the School Hoard has a difficult financial situation to face, I hope that some means can bo found which will overcome the working of an Injus tlee in thn touchers, of a detrl mont fn fhi rotiiitatlon of the city, and mostly to prevent the dis tinctly 111 effect which trie reaction will have upon the education Of the phlMron nf this city. Thanking you for the space which you have given this letter In your paper, I am, D. D. FINN. KINO VISITS LONDON MADRID. June 23.
