James Fish, special agent Of the United
States railway mail service In Alaska, ar
rived Ia Seattle yesterday from Valdes
on the Excelsior and Is stopping at the
Butler hotel In speaking OF his work
In Alaska MIR Fish said last night:
Regarding the mail service over tho
al-Amerlcan route, there has only been
one through trip from Valdes to Circle
city and return since the inauguration OF
the service last October. The mail has
regularly been dispatched from Valdes to
Circle city, but owing 10 the short time
the contractors had FOR preparing proper
relay stations there has been considerable
delay, IL Is expected. however that The

The members OF the Alaska delegation
who, for the past three months, have been
laboring with the various congressional
committees on a code of laws for the ter
ritory are. generally speaking, OF the be-
lief that the Lacey bill. regulating placer
mining in the north. will never become
law The bin was drafted more particu-
larry with reference to Cape Nome.
Col ID. b. May, special agent OF the
general land office, is the latest OF the dele
CATION TO arrive in the city. He viii take
the next boat TO Alaska, and return to his
post of duty at Sitka. In an interview at
the Hotel Butler yesterday he said;
There is no person in Washington IA
miliar with Alaskan affairs. who has any
belief that the Lacey bill will become a
law, II has passed the house, but Will be
allowed to die in the hands Of the senate
committee.
Beach mining at Cape Nome will be
conducted this year just as It was last.
The Lacey bin would be n most unjust
measure as, IL Il passed, a few days after
the fact was known in Nome there would
not be claim on the beach INDICATED. 1t
would retard the progress of the district.
and be not only unjust, but cruel
Il have no doubt but that the gold out
put of Cape Nome win be almost doubled
BY leaving the laws regulating beach min
ing just as they are Many who Join in
the rush viii be glad TO go on the beach
and dig out few dollars. The creeks,
under the present laws, win also be much
better developed. Individual owners Will
get down TO business quicker and will in
the aggregate take out more gold.
The matter was practically settled be-
fore | left Washington that the bill would
never go before the senate.
THE new code will make no radical
changes In the land laws of Alaska. The
object OF the Alaska delegation, and also
the members OF the committees, has all
along been TO eliminate everything that
would cause any lengthy discussion and to
form n simple code that could be quickly
gotten through and that would satisfy the
present demands of the district. From
time to time changes be made by con-
gress. and II is not at all improbable that
some OF the land laws will come in for
a brushing up.
Senator Carter has proven himself n
devoted friend of the district. lie has
worked day and night, almost, to get the
bin into shape. To all schemers he has
said No. and as nearly perfect as the
bill can be made. IL Is now Commls-
sioner General Hermann, of the general
land office, has also given great deal OF
assistance.
There Is n great deal of talk regarding
Alaska in the East now, and there is no
doubt but that large number intend
going north Just as soon as the season
opens"
