By Judge Wickershan at Fair

In an address delivered before large as>emblagc at Fairbanks. Alaska. this season Judge James Wickcrsham had the following to say relative to the future statehood of Alaska.
 Is it intended, as in the case oi the Philippines, that Alaska shall not be permanently annexed, "as an integral part of the territory of the territory ei the United Statcs?" ls ii tine intention of tho United States to establish in Alaska "a government suitable to the want, and conditions of the inhabitants Co prepare them for local scli-gov- ernmcnt, and in due time to make such disposition"-of ka-"a, will best promote tine interests oi the Cnited States and the inhab;- antSo oi Alaska? Snail tIe people of Alaska be required to or1aniz, here Il sovereign independent na- tion-the Republic of Alaska, with a federal constitution drawn after that from which eur foreisthers adopted for the United States! Shall the Republic oi Alaska i.c divided into four or more states each with state constitution sim liar to those adopted in the United State-, with similar local, county and municipal governments? Shall the Republic oi Alaska be divided into four states-Sitka, with it. capital at Juneau; Alaska. with iis capital at Valdez; Sumner, with ii, capital a, Nome, and Tanana, with ;s capital at Fairbanks? Or shall

these great natural subdivisions ~ this northland, when in propv, time they shall have the necessary populartion. be admitted rs statc~. into the Union of the United States?
 The answer to these questions must be made bv the sober sense of the people of the United State. Ny judgment Is that since the con stitntion of our iatherland is bascu on principles of truth and .ius.ier. which are not confined within nc- tionnl lines, it t.may safely includc within it's benefits those soyerc!.t states which the sons and ,ia,iglr- thcrs of the United States may erect in Alaska. Nay thc God o' Nations speed the day when the constitution oi the United states and the laws thereof which dcsi. nate the flag oi our country and declare independcncc Day Co he q holiday shall bn ir force and effect in Alaska.
