When the news reached the santee In

was to be In Omaha, Captain Young. who
holds the position Of chief Of the Indian
police and two or three other ofices on
the reservation. decided tina the show
could not rightly perform its functions in
his absence. He was seconded IN this
thought by George Jackson. another OF the
tribe Of Santee. who believed that the
real and only wild West would not be
complete without his aboriginal face at
the scene Of exhibition. Funds were not
lacking for the trip. but the Indian has
a decided objection 70 paying hts own
money when that OF my other can be had.
Some time previous 70 the appearance Of
the show in Omaha. James Allan, deputy
United States marshal. had been on the
reservation serving subpoenaa TO witnesses
In = case pending at Bloomfield, before the
commissioner OF the United States court.
The case was to have been heard the day
the show was IN Omaha. and Young and
Jackson were Witnesses. That morning
the EIkhofn train brought 70 Omaha the
two Witnesses. VINO reported st the United

At one station on the road there is q
conservative and safe boniface, who be-
lieves that food on the shelves is better
than food on the table, unless the pay
therefor Is certain. A telegram was sent
ahead for meals for $50 guests, and the
order was handled by the agent Of the
road where the meals were ordered. The
train was running rapidly toward the sta
ton and the dinner hour was approaching
when a telegram was received from the
agent to this effect.
The landlord at the hotel desires to know

It is not recorded that the Individual

The run from Grand Island to Omaha
was made with some remarkable bursts Of
speed. The train was behind the schedule
at several points on the return trip and
the members Of the party began to Jolly

smaller ones in the immediate E.,in-
ity. The second great mining field
is on the Yukon river, far in the in
terror of Alaska, some parts of il
nearly upon the arctic circle The
first and most important discoveries
were in the Klondille field, on the
Upper Yukon, in 1896, and explora-
lions and prospecting developed
large gold fields along the Yukon
west of the Klondike in Alaska and
in United States territory; and these
were the subjects of great attention
during 1897, 1898, 1899 and 1900. In
1898 gold was discovered at Cape
Nome, on the western coast of Alas
ka just south of Cape Prince of
Wales, the point on the Alaskan
coast nearest to the coast of Asia,
and during the last three seasons the
Nome gold field has received much
more attention than those of either
southeastern Alaska or the Yukon
field. The gold production of Alas
ka in 1901 is estimated by the geo.
logical survey at 100000 for Seward
peninsula, which includes Cape Nome
and the adjacent country; $2,545,o0O
for southeastern Alaska; $616,OOO for
Yukon river; $4,000 for Cooks in
let and $4,000 for the Copper river
district.
Transportation facilities are, like
many other features of conditions in
Alaska, greatly improved. Ocean
travel from Puget sound to Skaguay
averages during the summer season
one boat per day, the vessel being Of
1000 tons upward. From Skaguay to
White Horse, over the mountains, the
trip is now made by rail, and trans
portation rates for freight are about
one-tenth what they were prior to
the construction of the railway.
From the terminus of the railway
to Dawson semiweeldy trips are made
by steamer during the summer and
during the winter the trip is made
by stage. Lodging houses are estab-
lished along the route from the ter
minus OF the railway t. Dawson, the
cost Of meals and lodging averaging
about six dollars per day. In sum
mer the trip is made by steamer, the
fare averaging $75, including meals.
During the summer the trip from
Dawson is made to the mouth of the
Yukon by steamer. The steamboats,
on the Yukon river are modern, well
equipped, and affording satisfactory
conveniences for the comfort and
pleasure of the traveller. Travel to
Nome is chiefly by steamers from
Sitka to Unalaska in the Aleutial
chain, and thence northward to St
Michael and Nome.

land, Connecticut, New York, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware,
Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia,
North Carolina, South Carolina, Geor-
gia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi
and Tennessee. The governors re-
port for 1901 states that the area in
acres is 500. 529, 600.
The principal industries of Alaska
at the present time are furs, fish
cries and mining. During the first
half of the period since it came into
the control of the United States the
fur business, and especially that of
the fur seals, was the most impor-
tant industry and attracted most at
tention. The Pribilof islands, lying
north of the Aleutian chain, are the
principal breeding grounds of the Pa
cific fur seal herd, and from them the
company to which the islands were
leased took real skins at the rate of
100000 per annum for several years;
but in recent years the number has
fallen to less than onefourth that
figure, and the total number of seal
since the purchase of Alaska is about
100000, the value of which is esti-
mated at 35,O00,OO0 The estimated
value of other furs taken in Alaska
meanwhile is about $l7,O0O,OOO, maxi
ing the results of this industry since
the purchase of Alaska about S52.-
100000.
Fisheries form, and for several
years have formed, one of the most
important industries of Alaska. In
the earliest years of control by the
United States the fur business, es-
pecially that of the fur seals, occu-
pied the principal attention and
proved the most valuable industry of
that new and undeveloped area
Within comparatively short time
however, 1T became apparent that a
great undeveloped source of wealth
and of food supply for the people
Of the United States was to be found
in the fish. with which the waters
along the coasts of Alaska were plen-
tifully supplied. Even under the Rus
sian regime a few shipments of salt
ed salmon from Alaska to California
ard the Sandwich islands had oc-
Cured; but it was not until several
years after the control of this terri
to"y by the United States that the
value of this great food supply was
realized. In 1878 the first attempt
at canning salmon in Alaska was
made by a San Francisco association,
which established a cannery near
Sitk;,, and this was followed by the
establishment of another cannery by
p San Francisco firm, the pack of

these two establishments ranging at
about $4,000 cases annually up to
1881, the annual value of the pack
averaging about $4,000. From that
period the number of canneries rap
idly increased and the area over
which they were extended widened,
until at present there are 80 COM
panies and individual packers occu-
plying IS canneries and IL salteries,
the companies having capitalization
of $22,O0O,OOo; value of plants, in
Guiding vessels, $12,ooO,OOo; number
of salmon taken, 31,000,00o; output,
2,O29,269 cases and 1892 barrels,
making an equivalent of about 10O,-
100000 pound of salmon packed and
shipped from the Alaskan waters in
1901. The fishing grounds extend
from the southeastern point of Alas
ka northwardly past the Aleutian
chain and into Bristol bay just north
Of the extension of Alaska, the Bris-
tol bay and Behring sea production
far exceeding that of southeastern
Alaska. The value of the salmon pack
of Alaska in 1901 is estimated at &c.
926, 1877, exceeding in quantity and
value that of any preceding year.
Laws have been enacted requiring
those engaged in this industry to es-
tablish hatcheries for the artificial
production of the salmon.
The mining industry is chiefly con-
fined at present to gold. Silver has
been found in various localities, but
little attention has been given up to
the present time to attempts to de-
velop the mines. The gold mines are
in three distinct localities and Of
three distinct classes. The oldest in
point of discovery and operation is
that located in southeastern Alaska,
where large quantities of quartz Of
very low grade exist, assaying from
$1.50 to $3.50 per ton, and at this
point has been located the largest
quartz mill in the world, with several

s@Aa and its possibilities in re-
gard to other industries
and the rapid increase in its popula-
ton seem to justify somewhat de-
tailed study of present conditions in
that territory. This is especially
suggested not only by reason of the
rapid growth in population and rap
id development of certain great in
dustries in that section, but at the
present moment by the fact that the
recently enacted law of congress au-
thorizes and requires the collection
and publication of statistics of trade
between Alaska and the United
States.
In general terms, it may be said
that Alaska, for which the United
States paid $7,200,ooo in 1867, has
since that time supplied furs, fish,
and gold amounting to about $780,
100000 in value, about equally divided
between these three items; that the
investments of capital from the
United States in Alaska are probably
$25,00O.000, with large additional
sum invested in transportation to
that territory; and that the ship
ments of merchandise to Alaska now
aggregate about $15,O00,00O per an
mum. and have aggregated since the
purchase nearly or quite S1o0,000,o00
Meanwhile the population has grown
from an estimated $4,000 at the date
of the purchase to 32,052 in 1890, and
63,592 in 1900, and an estimated $4,000
at the present time.
The gross area of Alaska is, &C
cording to the census of 1900, 59O,so4
square miles. The governor of Alas
ka in recent report states that this
is equal to the combined area of the
20 states of Maine, New Hampshire,
