OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON ID. c., May 2, 1879.
write today from. Il city in which
the Republican party has sturdy rep
resentatives in the congress, the
cabinet and the white house. We
have not a majority of votes, though
we have vast preponderance of
brains in the first mentioned body,
but we have a unanimous vote in the
two houses.
The president, on Tuesday, vetoed
the bill passed by democratic con-
gress to turn future elections over to

Immense profits could be realized,
and furs, oil, &C., would literally pour
in upon tho trader from all direc-
tions. The expenses Of running
these posts would be slight, for In
dian labor would always be for hire,
and it could be paid in trade goods.
All these places are easy Of access;
and, as there is monthly steamer
to Sitna, any of these posts and can.
neries could be easily supplied.
have frequently conversed with
men Of capital and explained to them
the great advantages and possibili-
ties to be found all through these in
land waters; but the reply invariably
is: "What is the use of invest.
ing our money, when just as we are
beginning to derive some profit from
it everything is destroyed and our
very lives are exposed to danger ?"
And here is one of the pressing
needs of a steamer. For the proteo-
tion Of this and other interests, a
vessel of from 200 to 700 tons, man.
ned with from 40 to 200 men, would
be required, to cruise between Sitka
and San Francisco, or even Port
Townsend. AS there is no need of
her keeping the open sea, all her
work would be inland. There would
be no trouble about her supplies, as
coal and provisions could easily be
brought to Sitka by the steamer
"Calilornia." The government store
houses on the dock are capable of
holding one months supplies, and
equally well on supplies for one
year.
Any one acquainted with these in.
land waters knows that all reliable
surveying stops with the English
admiralty charts, leaving region
extending from the north end of
British Columbia to point consid.
orably north Of Sitka. 1t is the Gus.
tom of all pilots running here to al
ways keep vessels on the same tracks
as before run by them, and devia-
tion of a few feet might run them
upon an unknown and hidden dan.
ger.
SURVEYING.
Should such vessel be placed
upon this station, surveying ought
certainly to be one Of her principal
duties. AS vessels more and more
frequently visit various ports Of
Alaska these dangers will increase
until the loss of some large and val
uaDle VeSsel calls attentlon again TO
the need Of correct charts.
Hoping this will not take up too
much Of your valuable time and
space, | remain,
Yours, in haste,

ALL ABOUT TALAsKA.-RELIABLE.

ALLEN WEIR, ESQ.,, ARGUS OFEIcE,
PoRr TOWNSEND, w. IT,
Having made two trips to Sitka,
as pilot, in the U. S. S. "Alaska,"
have concluded to give you my views
in regard to the requirements Of this
much misrepresented locality; which
views | consider myself perfectly
competent to give, as have had over
twenty years experience cruising
through these inland waters and am
acquainted with the habits of the
natives and the productions Of the
country. The requirements of which
| propose to speak are regarding the
government of the settlements and
the best methods of holding in check
and controlling the various tribes of
Indians scattered through this vast
territory.
In the the first place, there is an
immediate and pressing need Of
some sort OF government, either civ
i! or military, on shore. Until the
establishment Of civil government,
which, up to the present time has not
been done, there is great need of
soldiers. Indeed, in view OF the
steady destruction Of government
property, it seems TO have been a
sad mistake ever to have Withdrawn
the military from Alaska. Since
their departure there has been very
little of either law or order. The
lower orders Of whites and Indians
have oeen constantly employed in
the manufacture of vile, intoxicat-
ing spirit called "hoochinoo," which
they distil from molasses. While
under the influence Of this poison,
these vagabouds care for neither God
nor man, and are perfectly willing to
commit any lawIess act that presents
itself. Doors, windows and even
hou Q frames are being carried off
piece by piece; and, unless some.
thing is soon done for the protection
of this and other government prop.
erty, if Uncle Sam. should visit this
portion of his territory he will find
nothing of Stka but hole in the
ground and the old Russian cannon,
the latter being too heavy to be cas-.
lily carried off, and, above all, do not
burn well as tirewood.
The situation at Fort Wrangel is
somewhat different. Order is more
respected, business and work of all
descriptions are constantly going on;
and, though nothing but 'mush-
room town." it has the air of pros.
perity. AS some of the floating pop
ulation is not Of the best description,
especially in the spring ana autumn,
the strong arm of the Law is much
needed there also. The rrdian pop
ulation is more civilized than about
Sitka, and shows the effects of the
labors of the missionaries, numbers
of the former being converts to
Christianity.
But the greatest need, and one
necessary whether the Territory be
under civil or military rule, is gov
ernment steamer for cruising in the
inland waters, for the protection and
development Of the wealth which is
known to exist in this part Of the
country. There is scarcely an island
where minerals OF some description
arc not visible; and, in some locali.
ties, there are immense numbers Of
large quartz ledgss.
FISHERIES.
The possibilities of development
OF the fisheries and canneries is al
most without limit. There are al.
so several places where large trading
