= tfoNcrnGr for Alaska; Aavora,cd.
San FRANcIScn. Nov. D Respectirp
the announcement from Washington Of
making Alaska a judicial district, the
. thr"Hici" Of tomorrow will say that it
/ Is better than nothing. but is not what
/ should be done for Alaska. There Is no
instance Of so gross neglect of COLONY
! or of ii territory by any civilized ratioD
/ as ours of this vast region. We bought
/ it 10 years ago for small sum, because
1t was then thought to be worth TO the
| United States a good deal more than
we pad for it. We have ever since
/ thought so little Of it as not to give IT n
/ government, or through Il delegate the
right to be heard il Congress. The
! reason that has prevailed against the
establishment Of a regular territoria!
/ form and substance of government over
/ this vast and probably valuable country,
| = that 1t has not sufficient population
/ other than Indians, but has no white
population. Is simply because we have
given it no government, and so this rea-
snu Is no reason at ali. To 90 no farther
/ than mukingit ii a judicial district would be
Il bid for signal failure. There should
/ al least be a governor to execute laws, a
| legislature To make them and officers TO
/ enforce them. If Alaska has not enough
! civilized whites to ill them, then let
/ that country be lacked to Washington
/ Territory, its nearest American organized
neighbor, with an allowance of represen-
/ tatior, and let the laws of Washington
Territory govern il, and the officers Of
| Washington Territory execute and en-
| force these laws. This much done, pop
uiation will be sure 10 follow Then let
| the United States keep vessel or two
there and establish few forts with regu-
! lar officers and soldiers on the coast and
ON the Yukon river TO protect these set
| tiers in the business of developing the
mines, forests and fisheries, and what
| ever agricultural or other resources
there may bic.

Address by Henry SCattersOn.
New YORK, Nov. %. - Hon. Henry
| Wattersou, editor of the COurier-JOur-
nal of Louisville, delivered an address
| last night in advocacy of the principles
vi llOC L l4C siNlhlSSS WAC sO4iiC-
what in the nature of reply to argu-
ments presented in favor of protection
last night by ex-United States Consul
Dudley. Mr.. Watterson had an audi
ence which included the best thinkers
in this section who give attention to the
subject of free trade and protection.
While the closest attention was given to
the utterances of the speaker, the ap-
plause was generous and genuine. Rev.
Henry Ward Beecher presided, AID pre-
sented Mr. Watterson, who hid the
most cordial reception. Beecher said:
AS to the charge that l am EHpubi-
can, do not deny it: but they 20 not
own me. Every citizen must d. what
he can to further the ends of govern
ment, and he can only do this by work
ing with one of the great political par
ties. 1 am also clergymen, but only
| by courtesy. / am also citizen, and L
am here to perform my duties as such.
| Beecher went on to say that he believed
| the protective system was a grinding
oppression upon the poor men of the
country. If it was right TO tax clothes
and books and pictures and iron, it
could not be wrong to tax ministers,
and yet he did not intend that tax
| should not be put upon such men as
Dr. Taylor and DR.. Hall. 1t is perfectly
consistent with the theory of protection
lists. Mr.. Watterson was preceded in a
short speech by David A. Wells.
yellow Fever ia san Francisco.
SAN Francisco, Nov. 81 Surgeon
Van Zandt, of the United States Marine
Hospital, reports that two cases OF yell
| low fever exist at that institution. 1t
appears that they are German sailors
from the wrecked City Of NaZatlan
and were brought here on the steamer
/ CoIima, with letters to the German Con-
sui. The steamer was not quarantlned
and they came ashore with other pass
engers. Feeling unwell they made ap-
plication for admission to the hospital,
| but the surgeon refused them unless they
were ordered there by TIE German Con
sui. This they succeeded in procuringi
and today,th medical officers pronounce
their disease yellow fever. What dis
position will be made of them Is not
known, as the hospital being situated on
Government reservation, the City
Board of Health can exercise no juFis-
diction. 1t is believed, however, that no
damage to the city is likely to arise even
should 1t prove that tie fever is rs stated.
