A Friend of Alaska.

The following is an extract from personal letter from Congressman Cush- man of the State of Washington, which is so appropos of the endeavors of the Alaska Chamber of Commerce as well as the entire population of Alaska. that we take the liberty to publish it, as it shows that Alaska has one repre- sentative that will stand by us.
 "Now then. it is my purpose while in Congress to do everything I can to aid the people of Alaska shall do this for two reasons. One is unseltish and the other is selfish. The unselfish req son is because they deserve great cred it for going into the frozen north to op- en up that country and l shall do all can to aid them for their own sake. The second reason is that anything that helps Alaska helps the State of Wash ington. You will always have my ear in anything that you desire to suggest. It has occurred to me that if some one could be at Washington during the ses- sion it might be of great aid to me. 1 had hoped to get up to Alaska and fam iliarize myself with the conditions but l fear l cannot at this time. Always feel free to write me or call on me for any thing beneficial to yourself or A las kans.
 Yours sincerely.

REVENUE FROM ALASKA.
Secretary Bliss Would Tax Sal- mon Gamers and License SalOonS-A CaS'c
 Asked For.

Secretary Bliss, summing up the re- port of Gov. Brady. of Alaska. calls at tcntion to the difficulty of preventing the smuggling of liquor into Alaska, 1t being impossible to enforce the pre- sent regulations without d fleet of rev enue cutters and steam launches to pa trol the tortuous channels of Southeast crn Alaskan waters. Smuggling pre- vals and saloons are open in all the towns and mining camps. The govern or reports a consensus of opinion in fav- or of a stringent high license law, which would tend to stamp out smuggl- ing and liquor selling to the natives.
 The application to Alaska of the li- quor laws in force in the District of Columbia, with several minor mOditica- tions is urged as meaning majority ap- proval. The governor believes that Alaska should and can pay revenue in- to the United States treasury. Under d high license law he estimates that the liquor traffic would yield an annual re- veuue of not less than $200, ,000 dollars: d tax of d few cents per case on salmon would produce from $35, 1000 to $50, ,000; ten cents ton on wharfage, collected during the past year would have yield ed $l00.OOO.
 He recommends. however, that any system of taxation for the territory be deferred until land laws shall have been provided Many sections of Alaska, it is shown, are suitable for agricultural purposes. With proper care, cattle can be raised in the middle districts. It cannot be doubted that in the course of time the herds of reindeer will cover the plains of Northern Alaska, and few thousands of dollars spent now in helping the Esquimaux to obtain herds will save the expenditure of many thousands in the future.
 The fur seals, he says, are doomed to extinction unless all pelagic sealing can be stopped. The branding of female seals has proved success. The brands render the belts useless and show that the United States has property right to the animal. The raising of blue foxes is becoming an important industry
 The hunting of the sea otter has been so unremitting that very few are now left. The governor recommends that the killing of them be prohibited for a long time.
 Representation in Congress for the citizens of Alaska is strongly urged.
 Attention is called to the fact that the rapid increase of the number of yes sels plying Alaskan waters necessitates the erection of many lighthouses. 9th CT recommendation include lengthy mail service between Sitka and Unalas- ka: cable connections between the Unit ed States and Alaska: enlargement of administrative authority and extension of the land laws to at least the settled portions.
