The following streams have been j

land; Chignik river and its basin.
Strauss, at the head of Chignik and
Chilkoot’s inlet, including Klahula
and Chignik rivers and lakes and
their catchment basins. The sev
eral streams flowing into tbc Eng
lish hnrlmr in the lower inlet of
Cook’s inlet.
The withdrawals are subject to
right of natives and of persons
claiming title through the Russian
government; also subject to rights
of the natives who take fish from
its waters and fuel from its forests
i embraced in withdrawn areas.
I he value to the town of having
court held here may la> gleaned
from the tact that since the open
ing of this session Marshal Perry
has paid out in various amounts
from his office alone the sum to
date of over f 12.000. In addition
1 to this, la-fore the next term opens,
spend nearly for a building
to he used as a eourt house and
j jail-i the preliminary work towards
that end is now in the hands -if the
(district attorney, who will very
shortly complete his labors on the
same and hand the case over to
the marshal, who will then call for
plans and bids; the work will then
go on, so that it is ipiite probable
that next term of court will la-held
in the I’nited States District Court
House of Valdez. During the ab
sence of Marshal Perry to other
parts of the district his deputy,
Charles Dreladhis, will look after
all such matters. The amount ex
pended by Mr. Henderson, the as
sistant clerk of the court, during
the past month amounts to very
nearly f.i.(KM), though not taking
into consideration any of the regu
lar salary list.

The Valdez Propector is not
pleased over the News’ attempt to
have the public lielieve that south
eastern Alaska is offended liccause
Valdez refused to send delegates to
the non-partisan convention. The
Phospectok need not l>c uneasy.
We know Valdez too well to lielieve
she ever offered any offense. That
the people of southeastern Alaska
did not so take it—read their ring
ing declaration for the Valdez
Kagle wagon road passed by a
unanimous vote of the convention.
That doesn’t look like we are sulk
ing down here, does it? South
eastern Alaska needs roads herself,
lint believes the Valdez-Kagle road
tnbe of such vital importance to all
Alaska, that she joins with Valdez
in her one request—a road to the
mighty Yukon. Tim writer has
laieit from one end of that road to
the other, and knows what lie is
talking about when he says it is
the one thing that all Alaskans
should join in asking for. There
are sunn—always are some of
that class who know it.say there is
nothing to justify it nothing in
there.
We would respectfully u.«k. if
there is nothing in there, why all
that array of legal learning at Val
dez this week, making the effort of
their lives to obtain title to just one
property in there? Don’t tell us
there is ‘‘nothing in it.” Kecohii
