ALASKA.
Gov. Brady Makes His Annual Report
The Gold Crnxe.

| Washington, Oct. 23.-The report Of
John G. Brady, governor of Alaska, for
the past fiscal year has been submitted
TO the secretary of the interior. A sum-
mary follows:
1t estimates the present population at
10000 natives and 10000 whites; predicts
that with reindeer transportation mails
can be sent all over Alaska during the win
ter, and recommends that 100000 be APP
propriated for government buildings and
900 for schools 1t says nothing has so
/ retarded AlaSka's substantial growth as
| the helplessness of settlers to obtain titles
| to their homes on account of the failure Of
| congress to extend the general land laws,
and urges congress to create a commission
| of five, one senator one representative and
| three bona fide Alaska residents to codify
| laws for Alaska. The secretary of the
| treasury is urged to confne the hunting of
sea otter to the natives, for, 'if the white
man Is not shut off at once the Aleuts will
have to be cared for by the government"
Reviewing gold operations, Gov. Brady
says: ship load after load of gold seekers
and their freight has been rushed to the ex-
IRENE limit of salt water navigation Q,ynn
canaD, and there they have been literally
| dumped upon the beach, some above high
| water, and many below, as they learned to
| their sorrow when the water covered them
| as they slept. The gold seekers have had
terrible time, but they are brave, and
| started out to endure hardship AS a class
they rank far above the average manhood
of the country Skaguay is being built up
| rapidly. Lumber is in demand, and lots
are selling as high as S1,5Og Americans are
anxious to secure a route to the Yukon
| which shall be entirely upon United States
| territory. Different parties are now out,
and are carefully examining the mountains
between Yakutat and Cook inlet This is
the third season of the work in Cook inlet.
The excitement over the Klondike has
drawn many away from that district;
| nevertheless. the output of gold this year
will be no mean sum. The possibilities of
the whole region bordering upon this inlet
and upon Prince William sound will draw
crowds of Adventures In the near future. {"
