JAPANESE SEEK
EDUCATION
TWO BOYS V. 11,1. fcATEK PEN
DLETON ACADEMY SOON.
Aniurl Koglma and George Yoahta,
Japanese Domestics, Anxious to
I .earn American Ways Impossible
to Admit Them to Public School
1 localise They Are Not the Children
of Citizen Both Are Highly Rec
ommended Stanford University
Mukes a Sieclalty of Educating
Japanese Students.
Amurl Koglma and George Yosh
ta, two Intelligent and progressive
Japanese boys, who have worked for
some time in this city as domestics,
are soon to enter Pendleton Academy
for the purpose of preparing them
selves to do missionary work among
their people.
Because the boys are not American
citizens. It will be impossible to ad
mit them to public schools, to which
they first applied. They are anxious
to learn American ways and gain
American enlightenment, und It Is
quite probable that they will be ad
mitted to the academy, beginning
perhaps in the primary grade, with
the full Intention of becoming profi
cient in all the branches taught there,
and if possible, graduate from the
regular course of the institution. . .
George Yoshta is now employed as
chore boy at the home of E. J. Som
nierville, county treasurer, and is a
conscientious and energetic young
man, and Rev. Robert Warner of the
M. E. church, under whom the boys
have been studying the subject of re
ligion, speaks highly of both of them.
It Is possible that a night school
for Japanese will be opened at the
academy soon, as the demand for
education among them Is urgent.
Most of the Japanese now In Pen
dleton are young men, who do not
belong to either the first or second
urmy resarves. and are, therefore, not
subject to military duty at home, ex
cept us prompted by patriotism, and
most of them are desirous of learn
ing American ways and becoming
proficient in American customs and
learning.
Stanford University makes a spe
cialty of offering Inducements to this
race of people, because when they
become educated, and proficient In
some of the professions, they are a
constant advertisement of the Insti
tution graduating them. At the pres
ent time there are nearly 100 Japan
ese in the big California institution.
Slnto, a graduate of Stanford has
been employed by the government
department of fisheries during the
past summer, studying the nature
i me uoiumDia river salmon, and
until quite recently has been located
at the Ontario hatchery, with a mag
nificent laboratory at his disposal,

Fanaticism of '
Doukhobors
Fpr several weeks past the Douk
hobors have been giving the Royal
Northwest mounted police of Manito
ba considerable trouble. Every few
days a band of them has started on a
search for Jesus, and no sooner do
the police get one band safely settled
back In their homes than another
starts out on the rumpsge. Twice In
the last month did a large number
of them go out on a pilgrimage, an
noying the English speaking people
and terrorizing the women and chil
dren.
Several fanatics are responsible
for these raids ami have excited their
fellows to wild acts by uroDhesvinr
that the second coming of the Mes
slah is at hand. Many of these fa
natics have been studying their Bi
bles night und day of lute, and each
one has selected a different date for
the second coming of the Saviour,
and on each date a pilgrimage has
started, Its size having been govern
ed by the popularity of the prophet.
When these pilgrims start on a
rampage they first turn loose all their
cattle and sheep, and then spend the
night In prayer. When the first
streaks of gray appear In the East
they leave their village headed by the
prophet who has proclaimed the
coining of the Messiah,
They march along in an aimless
sort of way, heading for nowhere In
particular, and as they march they
chant some doleful song. Their
clothing they cast away, because they
think that It has been made by the
assistance of animal labor, and they
consider all beasts of burden unclean
and cursed by God.
Of late a few of them have begun
to use horses, but the more fanatical
of them still hitch their wives and
daughters to the plows and wagons.
Several times these pilgrimages have
numbered nearly a thousand men,
women and children, who march
along without a stitch of clothing to
cover their bodies.
Some of the weaker women and
young children are placed In wagons,
which are drawn by the women, while
the men attend to the chanting. At
such times they refuse all kinds of
food except that which they can gath.
er by the wayside. When these pil-
grlmuges are started In the winter,
the plight of the wandering Doukho
bors soon becomes pitiable from want
of clothing and food, several of them
having died on the first trek they
made In this country.
When Lord Mlnto, the governor
general of Canada, made hlB great
overland ride of Inspection last
month, these people again started
out, his coming being coincident with
a prophecy that the Saviour was on
His way to the Doukhobor colonies.
However, their trek was Boon headed
off by the mounted police, the lead
ers put In Irons and taken to Reglna
jail and the pilgrims taken back to
their farms.
Vhen the decree of the czar went
forth that these people could no
longer live In Russia after their own
fashion, the Canadian government of
fered them inducements to come to
Canada, and gave them large tracts
of fertile land In the Northwest ter-
ritorlese.
Apart from these lapses Into fanat
icism, they have Bhown that they are
good settlers and a welcome addition
to the sparsely settled regions of the
Canadian Northwest.
Peter Veregin, whom the Doukho
bors look upon as a leader, has been
in this country only two years, after
spending 20 years of his life in the
mines of Siberia, where he suffered
the greatest cruelties at the hands
of the guards and Jailers. Since his
arrival here he has altered the char
acter of the community, has changed
Its modes of agriculture, gradually
Introducing modern methods, and has
built up organization out of chaos.
Several thousand acres of land
have been broken In the Doukhobor
colonies, and the land under culti
vation next year will be at least dou
ble the crop area of the present year.
Last year the Doukhobors expended
more than $75,000 in the purchase of
land and machinery. The latest im
plement secured by them Is a steam
plow, and It Is the first In that part
of Canada. At the present time IT
steam engines are used In the community.
These engines run flour mills, saw
mills, flax mills, etc. During the
times that the Doukhobors have had
these engines they have not been Idle
for a single day, excepting Sundays.
When one village has no use for them,
another has, so that they are always
being moved around to where they
will be of the most advantage.

ine circumstances surrounding the

It Ib usual for manufacturers to
prepare something especially fine for
exhibition purposes, but these goods
were packed on a "hurry-up" order
direct from the shelves of the stock
