In the United States 1000 600 feet Of
pine lumber are used every year for
matches. or the equivalent of the rro-
duct Of 400 acres Of good virgin forest.
About 100000 cross ties are now laid
on American railroads. and 90,ooo000
rev ties are required annually for re-
aewals. The amount OF timber used
every year is equivalent to 10000 0o0,-
900 feet Of lumber There are now
standing nearly 100000 telegraph
poles. The average life of a telegraph
uole is about ten years. so that nearly
100000 new poles are required every
year for renewals. These figures do not
include telephone poles and the poles
required on new railway lines. The
total annual consumption Of timber
for ties and poles is equivalent to the
amount Of timber grown on 100 J0a
acres Of good virgin forest For rns-lt-
ing shoe pegs the amount Of wood used
in a single year is equal to the product
Of fully $500 acres Of good second
growth bard wood land. Lasts and
boot trees require at least 100000 cords
more. Most newspaper and packing
paper is made from wood Although
this industry has been developed only
within the last 40 years, yet the
amount Of wood consumed for paper
during that time has been enormous

A FERRY IS ASSURED
Between Valdez and all Points os,
 The Sound.

The ferry for Valdez and all points on the Sound, which we so strongly advocated this spring, is now an assured fact, as Fish Bros. have purchased the steamer Perry far that purpose, and it will be thor "ughly rehtted for the new run.
 The present plan is to leave here every Monday morning and touch at the following points: Fort Lis cum, Ellamar, Landlock bay, Bligh's island, Goose island, Orca, Eyak, Nuchek, Latouch, Chenega. Knight sisland, and Glacier island; thence returning to Valdez via Ellamar and Ft. Liscum.
 The distance is over 2S0 miles and running l2 hours a day, it is proposed to make the round trip in four or five days. It will also make trip to Ellamar every Sun day, so the residents of that place can spend the day at Valdez and return the next morning.
 The boat will carry a supply of general merchandise, or orders can be placed with the captain and the goods will be delivered on next trip.
 There are many people along the Sound who do not get their mail at regular intervals and it often hap pens tliat mail is returned to the dead letter office as consequence. Now that we have boat making regular trips, we hope that the pos tai authorities will see the ad- visibility of opening up a mail ser vice over this route.
 There was a route established on the Sound, but it was never prop erly carried out and has been lost sight of for want of means of transportation
 It is to be hoped that the ferry project will receive the support of all the people, not only of Valdez, but of the whole Sound.

Held Last Tlszmsday Evening. Speeches For and
 Against.

1 NaLlsz l9Ll its frs, territorial meeting. under the auspices of the Moose, on last Thursday night, the hall leing thrown open to the pull lie instead of the regular Moose meeting being held.
 A large number of people were present, hat thrrc wa< not much enthusiasm. and the sentiment seemed to be against territorial government at this time.
 Judge John Goodell acted ar chairman of the meeting and after Il few remarks introduced MT. ThoS. ]. i>o00loe of Juneau. who spoke in favos of tls- iDeasurc. He out lined the plans Hf thc Territorial Club recently organized ia Juneau, Skagway and other places and spoke of the benefit to l~ derived from self government. Mir. Dono- hoe said that the plan was to or gxfi1 the district into three coun- ties following tle same lines as is now proposed in the bill hcfore Congress to redistrict Alaska That would make Juneau, Valdez and Nome county seats of their respcc- tive counties. He thought that the expense of running these county governments would not he over $3O. .ON each a year. and that this amount conld be easily raised by taxation.
 Mr. B. F. Willard sas tls. next speaker and ol4.,sed the measure, saying that he did not believe that the population Was permanent enough for territorial government at this time. He thought that ina very few years when we had rail- road from here to the Yukon. and when the copper mines on the in- terior were opened. when we had stamp mills and smelters and a permanent population, then we could support territorial govern ment.
 Mir. F. D. Kelsey followed in . speech full of good arguments against a territory at tine present time. He stated that tiH estimate of the expense of conducting coun- ty the size of the proEsss.-d county, of which Valdez would be the seat of government, was not large enough by half. He stated that the cost to the government of the Bird case alone had been $l5,OOO and Bird Was not hung yet. The cost for grand and petit jurics and witness fees would amount te at least $22OOO d year, then would come the eoun- ,y officers. judges, clerks, rrcortl-rs, assessors, supervisors, ~tc- Ar. Kelsey also spoke of the necessity of a permanent population, and said that after long residence in Alaska, and a wide acquaintance he only knew of oae permanent resident in the district and that was Governor Brady.
 There were a numi.er of other ar guments presented and the consen- sus of opinion wss against the measure, it not seeming feasable at present
 A committee was appointed by the chair, consisting of B. F. Mil lard. Jos. A. BOurke, A. w. Roch- ford, +. D. Kelsey and A.

The question is one that should he thoroughly investigated before any definite action is taken.

OF THE COUNCIL ON TUES
 DAY
fran(h6e Asked Tor
To Build Wharf. Proposition from Steamship Company about
 Land In Dispute.

The city council met in an ad- journed meeting at the town hall last Tuesday evening. Five mem- bers were present, Mayor Steele pre- siding.
 The Pacific Packing X Naviga- tion Go. asked fer franchise to construct and operate a wharf, to begin on the south side of Front street on Broadway, and to extend to deep water The company agrees to complete the wharf by Dec l, or forfeit their franchise
 Following the usual custom, the ordinance was referred to the com mittee on Streets. Sewerage and Wharfage consisting of Council man Olson, Nellie and Osgood.
 The Pacific Packing & Naviga- ti9n Co. made a proposition to the ~,uneil, through Mayor Steele, that they would relin4uish all claim to laocks eight and nine, if the town would as a consideration convey to them twenty lots on or djarent to Mckinley street. as near as possible to the property that they have claimed These lots are to be se- lected from the ones not heretofore appropriated by other parties and are to be chosen by Mayor Steele and the company's agent, Mir. J. C. Martin The matter was thorough ly discussed by the council and all were of the opinion that this would be the cheapest and quickest way of settling the difficulty, and would remove all adverse claims to a patent for the town. It Was thought best however, that the proposition lay over one week, 50 that it could be brought before the people The matter will probably be settled at the next meeting, and there is no doubt that if the wishes of the people are considered, the proposi- tion will be accepted.
 
 A communication from Surveyor General Distin, of Sitka. was read, estimating the cost of the survey of the townsite and the office work in connection with granting the patent to be $75O.
 This amount will have to be raised and deposited with U. $. Depository as guarantee of the expenses incurred in securing the patent to the tOwnsite. The money will have to he secured bv the city before any further action can be taken. The Council has not yet decided where the money can be secured hut expect to have some proposition to submit for raising the amount lay. the next meeting.

WILL BE BUILT HERE BY
 THE
Large Wharf. New Steamer on the Way from the
 East.

iHc aclHc TacklnE N NAVlgsi- tion Company will build the largest and best wharf and warehouse in Alaska, at this place. The com panv, through their loeal agent. J. C. Martin, applied for a franchise at a meeting of the city council, Tuesday evening
 The wharf will be haailt from the foot of Broadway out to deep water. and will be twenty-six feet wide and 1900 feet long. The ware house at the end of the wharf on the T will be large enough to hold 1000 tons of freight and win le supported by creosoted piles.
 Work on the wharf will be com menccd about the middle of July, or as soon as the fishing season is over at Orca, when the steamers and tugs that are now employed there will bring a large force of men, pile driver and other mater ialS and rush the job to comple- tion. Their tugs will bring in rafts of logs for the wharf, and also for lumber The Valdez Mill Company will do the saving. With the large force oi meai and two steamers the wharf can be completed in a very short time after the work is commenced.
 This company has just purchased a handsome new steamer in New York, which is now on its way around the Horn, to be used on the Seattle Valdez run. This will be the finest vessel running to western Alaska. She is d 14-knot boat. electric lighted, steam heat ted and contains all the modern conven- fences of ocean going steamers, in- cluding ice plant and cold storage. She will carry 100 first class pas sengers, and will have the best of accommodations for their comfort. as the steamer contains nice warm state rooms, large social hall, smoking room and baths.
 It is expected that this steamer will i'e in Seattle in time to make the August trip, and will land at the new wharf. Capt. Z. C. Moore and Purser Baker will be trans ferred to the new boat, and with these two popular steamship officers and such men as J. C. Martin as local agent and Sam Christian in charge at Seattle, the P. P. X N. Co. will do d large business in this place and western Alaska.
 This news is authentic, having been given to Mayor J. L. Steele at the office of the company, by vice president T. B. McGovern. Mayor Steele has had several interviews with the officers of the company and insisted that they give us better pas senger service in western Alaska, and it is partially through his ef- forts that the wharf is to be built and the new steamer put on this run.
