Want. Better Mail Service.

SUNRISE, Sept. 1.-The citizens of this place and Hope City, twelve miles distant, are endeavoring to secure better mail service for this section during the winter months. The service heretofore has been very unsatisfactory. The records of the postoffice department show that mail dispatched from this place on Oct. 29, 1902, did not reach Seattle until Jan. 30, 1903, just three months time. Between Feb. p and May 4, 1903, it was impossible to send out any mail at all as the steamers failed to call for it at Resurrection.
 A registered letter was mailed from this office to San Francisco Oct. 28, 1902, and according to the registry record that accompanied it, reached Seattle Feb. 4, 1903, San Francisco Feb. 12, and the re- turn card from San Francisco ar- rived at Seattle June 27, and reach ed here Aug. 15, nearly ten months from the time it was sent from the office at this place.
 The citizens and property owners of this section of Alaska, who have nearly million dollars invested here, feel that they are entitled to a better mail service, and are now petitioning for it.
 The cause of the miserable ser vice lies entirely with the steam ship companies, who fail to put on suitable boats for the westward trip, and consequently cause great annoyance and the loss of much money and time to the people of this section. The overland mail carrier from Resurrection to this place, MT. Anton Eide. never fails to meet all boats and makes splen- did time and fulfills his contract to the letter. The citizens of this district want good semi-monthly service and believe we are entitled to it.

Judge Moore Against Territorial
 Government.

Judge Alfred Moore, of the Nome district who recently passed through this city en route to Nome, to a Dawson NEws' representative in speaking of territorial government for Alaska said:
 "I do not think Alaska yet pre- pared for a territorial form of gov ernment. The population is too sparce, and the different populated sections not as yet we'll connected by transportation facilities at all times O: the year. l do not think we can convince congress that we are ready for territorial government However, the future of Alaska looks bright and we should take a cheerful view of the situation"
 Judge Moore is in close touch with Senator Quay of Pennsyl- vanio and other leading senators and representatives, and his opinion in the matter will no doubt, bear some weight.-SKAGwAY GUIDE.

Senator Dietrick Sees Trail.

The U. $. cutter Thetis, Captain Healey in command, arrived here on Saturday last, having on board Senator Dietrik and daughter, and the passengers and crew of the wrecked schooner Abbie NJ. Deer ing.
 The Senator is travelling on the quiet, but was discovered and pre- vailed upon to stay over until Sum day morning. Horses were pro vided by w. s. Amy, who accom- panied the Senator and his daught- CT on a trip over the trail as far as the summit. They returned early Sunday morning and immediately departed on the cutter. In the hurry of departure a marine was left behind, and will have to re- main here until the arrival of the Rush. There were also on the Thetis two witnesses in murder cases sent down from Unalaska for the coming term of court.

JUD6t ARRIVES
ON THE REVENUE CUTTER
 RUSH
Prisoners From Vest
Brought To Valdez For Trial. A New Town On Nushagak.
 Court Notes.

The revenue cutter Rush, Capt. Finger, arrived here to-day; she left Nome on Aug. p, with Judge Wickersham, District Attorney Harlan, Edward Harlan, Marshal Perry and Capt. Jarvis aboard be- side several prisoners to be tried here at the coming term of court.
 The Chinaman who stabbed an. other at Nushagak was brought on the Rush to stand trial here. Ono day while cutter was going at good speed with all sail set this china man, who fears hanging, jumped overheard intending suicide. The discipline on the cutter is so effect- i've that within seven minutes time they had stopped ship. launched a boat, captured the chinaman, and were again under headway.
 There are on the Nushagak river each summer about 5000 people. A new town has been established about 10 miles from the mouth, and is named Dillingham; in honor of the Senator. A jail will be built there immediately and a court house next year.
 One of the Nushagak murderers brought here by the Rush is a na- tive, charged with killing another native with a shovel while drunk.
 On account of various charges made against Commissioner Galle- gher, for his alleged adulterous liv- ing, the court, at session at Ko- diak took evidence and will decide the case later.
 Court was held at Nushagak and the prisoners were transferred to Valdez for trial.
 There is one passenger on the Rush taken into custody for insan- ity, but he is rapidly recovering, and will likely be liberated.

The Brewery.

Everything is getting in tip-top shape at the brewery, and before long he people of Valdez will hear new whistle at noon time.
 There is every reason to believe that the Brewery will be a paying proposition, and as all the stock is held by Valdez people this assures us that the money will stay at home.
 Brewer Reiniger said to PRos- PEcTOR reporter that when the beer is put on the market it will be second to none, and will be the beer that will make Valdez famous.
 The brewery will have capacity of seven hundred gallons per day, and will be the largest in Alaska

The Council.

The council Is very undecided as as to making an application for patent to the townsite. Some favor attempting to secure a patent to the reservation, which, owing to disputes now on over that ground, would tie up the patent, possibly for years. Others wish to patent the present townsite, and extend the incorporation over the reserva- tion. This, according to legal ad- vice, would require a special act of congress. changing the corporate limits of the town.
 At the meeting Monday it was decided to have the council inter- view Judge Wickersham, and get his opinion regarding the reserva- tion question.
 The city attorneys salary was raised from $25 month to $lOO in view of the increased amount of work that will fall on him, during the obtaining of patent for townsite.
 It has been SO hard to get the council together on time, that a rule was adopted imposing fine of $1 upon any councilman who is late on meeting night; g for missing meeting, and if absent without leave for four meetings, his seat is declared vacant.
 The meeting was adjourned until Tuesday night to take action on an ordinance amending the dog or dinance.
 At the adjourned meeting Tues day the report of the police magis- trate was presented. To the pres- ent time there has been collected by him in fines $1O6.6O.
 Sam Lynch was appointed chief of the fire department at a salary of $75 per month, and he will com bine with this work the duties of poundmaster. The dog ordinance will he strictly enforced hereafter.
 The following ordinance was adopted:
 ORDINANCE No. 34. An Ordinance Prohibiting the Dis
 playing of Indecent Pictures and
 Obscene Books, and Providing
 for the Punishment Therefor.
 Be it ordained by the Common Council of the Town of Valdez. Alaska:
 Section I. If any person shall import pub fish, sell or distribute any book, pam phlet bal lad, printed or painted paper or thing contain ing obscene language, prints, pictures, figures or descriptions. manifestly tending to the cor ruption of the public morals. or the morals of youth, or shall introduce into any family school or place of education, or shall buy. procure, receive or have in his possession, any such book, pamphlet ballad. printed or painted paper or thing. with the intent to introduce the same into any family, school, or place of education. or for the purpose of loan, sale. ex. hibition. or circulation, such person upon con- viction before the poice magistrate, shall be punished by a fine of not less than ten nor more than fifty dollars. or by imprisonment in the town jail for period of not less than five nor more than thirty days.
