would be sure 20 pass the Two branches
of the Council. Mr.. Allen contended that
property in the neighborhood had depre-
ciated 10 a great extent, and. further.
that IN the interests of light and health
and In view OF the fact that similar privl-
leses had been granted 20 Messrs. rnal-
himer on Broad street where the travel
was al least ten times greater than on
Franklin street. the ordinance should be
adopted
AR. Cutchins said his property Sad been
seriously injured already. and the cheap
doors were an eye-sOre and an anpov-
ance. The discussion lasted for some
time. and upon the vote being taken he

nance.

ALASKA'S NEEDS.
Them and Makes a Strong Plea
for Congregational Action.

Washington, Dec. 2.-The annual re-
port of Gov. Brady, of Alaska, makes
a strong plea for congressional action
on Alaska's needs at the coming ses-
sion and points out that Alaska is 13
times larger than Cuba, has been in
our possession for 81 years, and its
value has been unknown and unappre-
Gated Gov. Brady declares that it
would seem as impossible to prevent
smuggling of liquor into Alaska as it
would lie to prevent the clouds from
rolling by or the tide from ebbing or
flowing"
Recommendation is made for a high
license liquor law, tax of few cents
a case On salmon and ten cents a ton
for wharfage. The first two combined
would nci at least 1925, 600 annually.
the third 500, 600, based on this years
wharfage. It also recommended that
the general land laws be extended to
Alaska; that Alaska be given repre-
sentation in congress; that Japonsky
island be made a naval station and that
cable communication be effected with
the United States.
