SO much Of the land laws as relates
to mineral lands and mining claims,
inasmuch as they are the same as are
now in force in the United States
proper, have given perfect satisfaction
throughout Alaska, but in the matter
OF homestead laws, quite different
state Of affairs exists. The idea that a
mar may dig out ore upon lands and
obtain patent for the same but cannot
build house and improve land for a
home, nor obtain title to it. is regarded
as highly unjust and imprudent by the
residents of that country. As matter
of fact, the land Office has issued but
one patent under the law OF March 3,
1898, for trade and manufacture, and
the amount OF land an applicant re-
ceives depends not on any law, bnt
entirely on the will Of the land officer.
Even the law which passed last May,
extending the homestead rights to
Alaska, is found to be practically val
ueless.
"There are no surveyed lands in
Alaska, nor has any system of survey
been provided. 1t is impossible, there
fore, for poor settler to acquire a
homestead. If he were able and will
ing to stand the expense of a survey,

Improvements, he cannot tell how

sequence OF this condition of affairs,
not single homesteader has attempted
to make entry under the new law in the
land office at Sitka.
In the matter of wagon roads, rail-
roads, etc., different condition exists.
AS soon as the right of way bill had
passed, numbers OF filings we're made,
and several roads OF various character
are now in progress of construction.
At Unga, Berner's bay and Douglass
island there are railways in operation,
although solely for use in connection
with the mines. The Pacific q Arctic
Railway s. Navigation Company has
probably made more progress than any
of the other large companies, having
completed IA miles Of road over almost
impossible country. Moreover, sc
much of the road as is completed il
constructed OF the best material, by the
best OF workmen, and is in every way
first.class. Money has not been spared,
and as result the road stands without
a peer. 1t might be mentioned, in this
connection, that, owing to the limita-
tions of the timber laws, it was found
best to import great deal OF timber,
and nearly all the timber and lumber
used in building Dyea and Skagway,
their railroads and mills, was shipped
from Pugest sound.
The governor expresses the hope thai

The Governor's RECOMMENDATION.

Before closing the report, a number
of recommendation are made. Among
them is the suggestion that Japonsky
island be built up as naval station.
Attention is also called to the fact that
at Kadiak, Unga, st. Michaels, Circle
City and Dyea there is great lack OF
proper courtrooms and jails, as well as
at Sitka, where the buildings are in
miserable condition.
The appropriation for Alaskan

cient, being but $50. 1000 per year. An
appropriation of twice that size could
easily be utilized to good advantage.
A further recommendation Is made
TO the effect that lighthouses and other
beacons be placed at conspicuous points
along the coast, as the commerce has
greatly multiplied Of late and demands
such protection.
Governor Brady closes his report
with an appeal to the Republican party
to live up to its pledge and extend to
Alaska the privilege Of sending dele
gate to the national congress.

Commons


OTTAWA, Ont, March S.-The passage
of the Frye bill in the United States SEN
ate was the subject of a heated debate
in the Canadian commons, attention hav-
ing been called to section 13 of that bill
Sir Charles Tupper arose and asked
If the government, in the face of the eX-
traordinary proceedings at Washington
intended to proceed with the Yukon Rail-
way proposals? He then, with well-sim-
ulated Indignation and in the strongest
terms dwelt upon the actions of the Sen
ate which he characterized as unbear-
ably aggressive. He declared that
neither the Canadian Parliament nor her
people would tolerate the dictatorial at
titude assumed.
The Premier claimed that by the treaty
Of Washington, free navigation of the
Stickeen was assured to Canada and any
law passed by the American government
which would render nugatory the SUBJ
stance or intent of that treaty was ultra
wires and would be so held in the United
States courts. He stated that if the diff"
culties at Wrangel became insurmounta-
BILE, the government would construct a
railroad from an ocean port in British
Columbia to connect with the Stickeer
route. The trade of Klondike belonged
to Canada and he proposed to keep and
maintain it for Canadians, but if tbs
suggestions of Mr.. Tupper were adopted
that trade would be given over to Pacific
Coast cities of the United States.

NEW YORK, March S.-The tone of the
stock market was much improved today, as
compared with that of yesterday, the
ground for the greater confidence In val
ues being the apparent desire of the Span
ish government to deprecate any idea that
they desired rupture with the United
States on their own initiative or that they
sought to irritate the United States gov
ernment into assuming the offensive. The
effect of this was most clearly defined In
a sharp recovery in the price OF Spanish
fours, both in London and Paris. Ameri-
cans were also much steadier on the for
eign exchanges, but there was nothing In
