The Mail service along the coast
it- a wonderful thing. The last
boat from the- south brought us
Juneau papers of the date of
April 29.
The Record-Miner says that the
assignment of Judge Gunnison to
Valdez for a term of court in
August was most irksome, as it de
prived him of his vacation. He
acted rather bored while here, but
it was generally thought that it
was because he wanted to get back
to work.
The citizens of Atlanta, Georgia,
have, hit upon a method of solving
the negro question, which is speedy,
although it is probable that the
colored people will consider it
rather harsh.
In a short time Alaska,s newly
elected delegates will have an
opportunity to prove their ability
at Washington.
Juneau papers are trying hard
to- make the election returns
agree with their former estimates
of'the population of Alaska, but it
will take considerable figuring to-i
swell 14000 to <>0000. x
TJjb- Skagway Alaskan says:
■lection-of Cale ami Was key
is a iiiHtct demand for territorial
gpvernment. They do-not talk so
much of that phase of the- demand
at Nome and some of the other
portions of the district for the rea
son that in those other sections
everybody are for self-government
or pretend to he. Tim}’ have not
so many active tories as we have
had to deal with on the coast.”
This does not agree with the state
ments made by Governor Hoggatt
after a tour of the inteiior. lie
had every opportunity of ascertain
lag tlie opinions of the mass of the
people and he says they are ve:y
few with whom he talked who
favor territorial government at the
present time. He says about the
only place there is any strong sen
timent favoring territorial govern
ment is in portions of southeastern
Alaska, where there are a number
of professional politicians who
would like to see some more ollices
created.
Despite- Jack London's terrible
tales of Liuiya bay, a party has
left Juneau for the scene of the
novelists latest novel and will
brave ihe ghosts of the old-time
murder all winter. In the party
are two men and one woman.
The department of commerce j
and labor- announces that up to
the end of the fiscal year, June 30,
Alaska bad shipped $)2,o00,000 in
gpld and 8fi,oOO,<X)(f pounds of
freight. The.shipments of canned
salmon has fallen off considerably.
