Education in Alaska.

WASHINGTON CRY, Oct. Ex-Governor
Knapp, OF Alaska, in his annual report,
gives an account of the progress made in
educational work as carried on by the gov
eminent. He suggests that the manage
ment of schools should be made as far as
practicable, local, and that they should be
non-partisan and non-sectarian He
favors the appointment of territorial
board of public instruction by the secre-
tary of the interior, to be under the con-
troll of the commissioner of education, to
nave full authority as to government
schools and the expenditure of public
moneys.
need OF additional legislation and states
that In the last seven years congress has
gwen the territory no new laws
except the townsite and land acts. He
thinks that the methods of drawing iuries
should be modified, as should also the
other regulations relative to juries and
other details of the government admins
tration. He considers the territorial form
OF government impracticable as to reve-
nue. he, however, makes no specific
recommendations on the subject The
townslte law passed by the last congress,
he thinks, should be supplemented with
legislation providing for the municipal
corporations. He thinks that congress
should appoint a special committee to
look after Alaskan legislation and Alaskan
interests, and that the legal and political
status of the native population should be
defined by legislative enactments.

ported during the year was S., 942, 600.

Senator Eshelman is showing his uncle the

prominent Democrats in the legislature. Born
near Memphis, No., in 1882 he came to this state
in 1876, and for two years taught school IN Cali
fornia. He moved to this state IN 1915, ana for
nine years lived in Klickitat county; then he
went TO North Yakima to take charge OF the
Christian church, of which he is still the pastor
He has been chief clerk in the United
States land Office at North Yakima, and
he also served with credit in the constitutional
convention. Last fall he was elected to the
state Senate from the district composed OF
Yakima and Kliekitat counties. He enjoys the
distinction OF being the only clergyman who Is
member of the legislature. His personal ap-
pearance might lead anyone who did not know
him TO take him for a business man, for there Is
nothing OF the "cloth" in his aspect or manner.

for his grandfather moved from Virginia to Ken
lucky in 1903, and his father from Kentucky to
Missouri in lSl7. In 1853 the family came to
Oregon and settled in the valley OF the William
cite. At that time Oregon was as wild and
unsettled as Kentucky had been in
1905, Missouri in 1877. The elder
Mr.. Thompson died in Lane county, Or, some
years ago, without ever having seen a railroad,
for he always kept pushing ahead in advance of
them. The son, Mr.. 4. T. Thompson, went from
the valley OF the Willamette into Eastern Oregon
in the early sixties and began sheep-raising,
and there he has continued ever since
"At first" he said yesterday, "there were but
few settlers, and the ranges were common.
Then there were some large herds, and at one
time my partner and had $1,000 head of sheep,
more than anyone else N the state. When the
railroad came through the settlers followed
quickly and took up the land in the valley, so
that the ranges there were broken up. On the
hills, however there is yet plenty of room.

Pat Killen and Bob Ferguson.
New York Recorder,

Pat killen aud Bob Ferguson will fight in
Wisconsin, just over the Illinois line, October
10, for 1900 main stake and so and 20 per cent
OF the gate money. They have trained faith
fully and well, | am informed, and a letter re
ceived by me yesterday from Chicago says:
"Pat has reduced to 100 pounds and Ferguson to
ISIS. Ferguson is at Beloit, doing his work I'M
der John Kline, and Killen is at White Bear
lake. Ferguson is more or less of an unknown
quantity in the prize ring, as he has never been
really tried out But he has shown that he
can punch hard. and he generally settles his
man in short order. He has not, however, met
any man who approached killen in cleverness,
and pat may be able to win 10y his superior skill
as boxer. Pat has also had very much more
experience in the ring, and we all know that for
big fellow he is decidedly shlfty.
