URGENTLY NEEDED FACIS.

The subject that commands the teepeS, eonsleers,lon, and upon which there Is the most speculation at the present time (and has been since ,he close Of navigation), Is as to the date when the lakes will be sui helentlv frozen foI heavy teaming, and when the trail to Dawson will be in con- dItlon for quick travelling. The next great subject oi speculation will be as to when the first lee will go out; and then, when steamer navigation will open, and SO on. And the worst of it Is that there IS no reli- able data at hand as Co the conditions winch prevailed in previous seasons to serve as a basis Of comparison and on which conclusions could be based. or course. there a few reliable men of two or three wears experience on the waters of the Interior. but all their statements of the prevailing conditions in past seasons differ one from another, and In drawing a conclu- sion from them t Is impossible Co estimate what Is the proper percentage 10 allow for human variation and the freaks of mem orv. In short. when gold was first diSeov- cred on the Klondike. Alaska, in many im- portant subjects Of necessary information. was as tn. world was In the dark days be- fore the keeping of records and the print ing of books.
 The DAILY ALASKAN, in lts New Years edition, will endeavor to supply this "long-fslt want" in so far as there Is snv material from which to do so. The only material sx,ant that furnishes reliable data upon the subjects Of speculation now under discussion are the files of the DAILY ALASKAN for last year. From these has been carefully eollated. for the New Years edition, chronological table of all the im- portsnt events in Skaaway's current hlS- torv for the wear past. This gives the condition of the trail eirlv in the season of winters travel, the condition of the trail snd lakes from time Co lime, the exact date when the first steamers left Dawson and Bennett, and SO forth. This will be valu- sble to those going In this season, whether they expect Co "mush lt" an the way, 10 winter at LlBArge and go out with the frs, Ice, or to go ln style and comfort on one Of the large steamers. Such a table wll bs valuable for ihs ver.hcation Of dates on every oths, point of Interest that affects this ei,v, bu, the above mentioned inform a,ion will 5e SO important to have in the eirlv days Of the new year, that pa,iicu- lar attention Is called Co it.

TERRITORIAL CAPITAL.

The position ass med by Superin;end- ,nt Kelly, of AlasEl's public schools. with reference Co the territorial capita! IS unten- able. Granting. for the sake of argument, that Sit<a Is nearer the -enter of popula- ton than any other eitv. which as a mat ter of fact she lacks mu:h of being, still li would be the height of absurditv ,o locate the capital there. The transportation com. ranleS that operate Co the westward all Ines, so |, would be as nvenient for the eonrec, directly with the Skagway-Sound communities Of South gestern Alaska ,o hsve the capital a, one Of the mainland towns as lt Sltka. while it Is imperative that the executive be In closer eommunlel- ton with the populouS cenierS.
 But Sit<l Is not the center of popula- ton In Southern Alaska. Nor Is it likely to be. The principal population of South ern Alaska Is located In Skagwav, Juneau. Douglas and the other towns along the in- side route. There Is where the principal industries are carried on, and with the sole executive power Of the district vested In the governor, he should be within reach of them. II a not should occur at any point between Wrlngel and S<lgwav just after the departure Of the Semi.monthly Sitka mall steamer, the eommanderin-ehiei of the militia would be in ignorance of the condition for two weeks unless a special two or three days trir should be made for him. This Is one Instance that will illus trate a multitude of contingencies.
 Professor Kelly should eonfne himself to AlaSl<a's rublie schools and let the terrific rlal capitsl look out for itself.

Superintendent of schools JeIlsthe Attitude of the Pioneer Uty on Matters Political.

W. A Kelly. superintendent of Alaska S,hools. Who vlS in the eltv Saturday en- route Co S-k' ogsthsr with other district officials wto ye been attending court at Juneau, sai1 the StkanS were willing to have the eour, moved from Sltka to ,u- nea, but they will not consent to the re- moval of the executive headquarters from its present location. He says further:
 "The contention Is made by some that the tarital should be moved from Stka because it Is not ln the centre of popula- ton. According to Surveyor General Dlston, 1t Is In the centre of population. The westward must be considered. The population tar out In the Pacific and In the Aleutians, especially in connection with the lannerisS will draw the center of popu- laton toward Sitka and from the mainland shore.
 "We want to keep the governor where he Is, The contention Is made he Is too far from the towns of Juneau, Skagway and other points In this vicinity and to the south, but lf he were moved this way he would be farther than ever from the westward.
 'ln regard to the choice of a judge to succeed Judge Johnson, 1 understand the Alaskan bar prefers man from the states rather than a man from the district, and that for the reason that a man from the district Is likely to have too many person. al interests through his present ellentage in practice to permit him to sit with as un- biased views as an utter outsider.
 "l do not expect to be in Skagway again until March. In the meantime l shall remain In Sitka and probably some elsewhere"

The government Of Norwav con.

The government of Norway con-
trolls nearly all the places for the
retailing of intoxicating drinks.
Its policy is to prevent the sale of
adulterated drinks and to lessen
temptations to over indulgence
by removing from the dispenser
the inducement to encourage his
patrons which exists when his
profits are dependent upon the ex-
tent of his sales. Under the Nor
wegian system the saloon keepers
income is the same whether he
sells much or little. The num-
Der of places where liquor is sold
in the large cities is considerably
reduced. The proceeds of the
business, after paying all the ex-
penses, are expended upon various
