A CONGRESSIONAL DELEGATION.

The congressional delegation, headed by Mr. Payne of New ' lOrk, made a round trip of Alaska towns on the Queen. We shall expect much good to come from the two recent visits of par ties composed of senators and repre- sentatiyes, for Alaska has suffered, simply because those asked to give us legislation knew absolutely nothing of us or our resources.
 Mr. Payne was seen by a News man last Friday evening. He is a fine look ing gentleman. about sixty years of age six feet tall with a white beard and mustache He received the writer in a most kind and gontlemanIy manner.
 When asked as to the pleasure of the trip he expressed himself as being very much delighted with Alaska and the beauty of it's scenery. The wonderful ly rich and iuCNhaustible supply of ore he thought must make Alaska one of the greatest mining ceutcrs in the world. The character of the people who iuhabit Alaska we think was d sur. prise to the able congressman for he spoke of them in the highest praise.
 ron have been quoted as saying that you thought the Alaska license law was uuamerican. Are you correctly reported?n asked the News man.
 No. did not say it was unameYicam. but 1 might have said it was cruel l do think. however, that Alaskans should be taxed and ! understand they are satisfied to be in a reasonable manner"
 Upon the question of delegate to congress, Mr. Payne would not express himself. He did say, however, that with tine recent additions of territory, some definite plan of government mu st be adopted but just what that would be of course could not be stated now.
 From the whole conversation we be- lieve Alaska has found friend in Mr. Payne. He is an able man, broad guaged, and will do what he believes to be right and justice is all we ask for.

as superintendent or overseer of the educational interests of Alaska there can be no doubt, but on the other hand, those who aromost intimately acquaiut- ed with him attribute this dereliction of duty tono wrong or improper motive.
 It is, after a fair investigation, ap- parent to the writer that Dr. Jackson's good sense and judgment has been inn paired by his reindeer schemes and he has neglected everything for the fur therance of that one fad" that has completely taken possession of him.
 Geographical societies may ''resoluto" and his most intimate friends may come to his defense, but the facts re- main, and these are, that the educa- tional interests of Alaska have been most shamefulIy neglected. The schools of Alaska, in their present condition, are not what they would be if our edu- cational interests wore in the hands of a man who would visit the various schools and thus personally know our conditions and needs.
 The News has not been nasty in taking stand upon this matter. The writer has been a resident of south. eastern Alaska for more than one and one-half years and yet we have never seen or met the doctor, or heard of him being in this part of Alaska, except as he passed through the territory on his way to the reindeer herd that have so completely absorbed his time and at tention to the utter neglect of his duties as educational agent.

DR. SHELDON JACKSON.

The recent report of the grand jury in this district, so far as it concerned the administration of pr. Sheldon Jackson, educational agent for Alaska, has received a pretty thorough discus sion by the newspapers in this district, and the sentiment seems to be almost universal, that the grand jury was jus tified in it's action.
 That Dr. Sheldon Jackson has been derelict in the discharge of his duties

WEDNESDAY, JULY F, 1899.

For the information of the pOStOttice department at Washington, D. C., we desire to say that every steamer that puts in at Juneau, passes within few hundred yards of the Douglas City wharf, and if there is any good reason why the boats should carry the Doug las City mail to Juneau and from there it should be sent to this city i'll small row boat, we would like to know what it is.
 The population of Douglas City and Treadwell is only little less than that of Juneau and the present system of handling our mail is not only slow, but expensive. The steamers as they go up the channel can run by the wharf and drop the mail and thereby save from one to three hours time in getting the same to the people of Douglas Island.
 We think that Douglas City is enti- tied to this much as matter of right. The greatest gold mines i'll the world are located at TreadwelI and the officers and employees get their mail at Doug las City. It is the only postotttce on Douglas Island and we insist that We should no longer be fastened to Ju- neau's umbilical cord We are going to build the best city in Alaska on the Douglas City townsite and we hope the government will at least give us fair treatment in the landing of our mails.

THE NEW LICENSE LAW.

Congressman Payne, of New York, IS reported to have said to the Skagway people that he did not like the new license law of Alaska and stigmatiZed it as unamerican. MT. Payne and the people of Alaska are of the same Opin- ion upon that subject. But the law was promptly passed by Congress and is being enforced, and it remains to be seen if the national law making body will promptly modify it so that it will meet with the approval of our people.
 The high license for the sale of iu- toxicating liquors is not objectionable, and those engaged in the traffic were heartily in favor of it, but i'll the opinion of some, it is claimed that if teen hundred dollars k too high and that one thousand dollars should be the maximum. There is some force in the contention for it should be remem- bered that the towns of Alaska are not on the "boom," but enjoying a slow, steady growth only, and that the days when the liquor dealer can get twenty five cents for a glass of whiskey are numbered.
 The tax on stamp mills should be removed. Every aid and encourage ment should be given to the production of gold. We cannot afford to follow in the footsteps of the Canadians, who are robbing the miner of every dollar they can get out of him.
 The idea of taxing little enterprises is outrageous. A little fruit stand, or news dealer with a few dollars capital is compelled to pay more for his license than he has invested in his business. Some poor hard working woman wants to continue in the restaurant business and she is compelled to pay twenty-five dollars for doing so, and is forced out of business because her profits will not justify the expenditure.
 Unamerican, why sure it is, and then the money is taken out of our district and what little is returned goes for court expenses. Of course, MT. Payne, is disgusted with the law. Every true American is bound to be, and with the influence of the congressional visitors we doubt not that the law will be modi- fled and Americanized so as to be both just and agreeable to our people.
