That we need -a division of this
-judicial district is now admitted by
everyone who is familiar with the
bonditions here. Even the pres-'
'ent term of court has not cleared
Hfp the docket, many of the civil
oases still being uusettled on .ac
count of the short time at the dis
posal of the judge. We should have
a regular term- of court at least
twice a year and it sliould con
tinue each time until the docket is'
dear. The present court facilities"
#re entirely inadequate and will
be until the district is divided. It
is*to be hoped that our delegate
Will rtmember his pledge to assist
ill having the division bill passed
ifnd will work for the measure
Which Will give us much- needed
relief.
The raipid increase in the de-'
ifiarids upon the Alaskan cable
and telegraph system will be met
by the government by the duplex

tus at the Alaskan end of the
cable, will probably leave Seattle
about September 15. It will carry
200 miles of new cable, which has
just been shipped from New York
for the extern ion of the cable ser
Vifce south of Ketchikan:
This*' extension will he effected
$y tafppjitgthe line from Sitka to
jitHeartf aft Cape Fanshaw. From
that point a branch lirife will he
extended down to Wrangell, then
tb Hadley, on Prince of Wales ltd-"
and; arid thence to Ketchikan,
Which is only sixty miles from
$ort Simpson,- the English town
Whifch’ iaf' to be the terminus of the
Grand Trunk Pacific railway.
