Gov. KNAPP ON ALASKA.

Hon. l.. Il. Knapp, governor of Alas
ka, was interviewed while IN town bv a
representative of the Rutland Herald and
said of the country he governs, which,
by the way, has an area equal to one
sixth of the rest of the United States:
THE population speaks eight Language
es and many dialects, six of which are
native. The aboriglnes constitute five
slXths of the population. As a rule they
are well-behavcd people and more in
telligent and progressive than the Indians
OF the plains. In southeastern Alaska
they are making rapid progress and the
young people are learning the English
language. They are making rapid adj
Vancement, too, in the direction of sys-
telnatic labor, the formation of perman-
emf and attractive homes, better STYLE of
living as well as education.
The mining, manufacturing and other
business interests are on large scale.
one gold mine has the largest stamp
mil in the world, which is run to its full
est capacity night and day.
"lhe fishing enterprises are the most
extensive of all Alaska's present indus
tries, using capital of upwards of So
900, with an annual output of 81 ,0OO,-
OOO worth of products.
"Ihe people are clamoring. not with
Out reason, for reorganization of its
government that will give them dele
gate in Congress. While the present adj
has done much for the ter
rllory, so much more is needed to keep
pace with its necessary wants and chang
ing conditions that the people of this
land may be pardoned for
pushing their claims for recognition with
vigor."
OF Sltlia, the capital of the territory,
Gov. Knapp says: "The society is high |
~ cultured and very agreeable, made up
rs it is of old Russian families who were
here when Seward bought the territory
ana the officers of the revenue cutters |
ana those who have charge of the large |
business interests
