Washington January 2O.-A hearing was held before the senate committee on territories on Senator Dietrich's bill providing a new form of government for Alaska. Governor Brady, Collector Jarvis and James D. Reynolds, of Val dez, spokein favor of the measure. The governor and Mir. Reynolds indorsed the measures unquaIifedly, and Capt. Jarvis favored the principle involved, so far as it gives local self government. The Dietrich bill contains number of provisions, chief among which is the creation of commission of seven members, of whom the governor shall be the chairman, three to be appointed by the president of the United States and three to be elected by the people of Alaska.

The people of Atlin are evidently in earnest about that wagon road. A recent issue of the Claim says. At a meeting of the Atlin District Board of Trade, held on the 10th inst the Coun- eil of the Board was appointed a com mittee to collect information and data on the proposed route for a wagon road coastwise from Atlin, communicating with salt water on the estuary of the Taku River or in the neighborhood of Juneau. At last Wednesdays Council meeting, considerable information was presented for consideration, together with a rough sketch of the different possible routes, giving approximate distances, and a subcommittee formed to collect further information and draft a report to the Board, to be submitted at an early date. Later, when the mat ter has been brought into a definite shape, doubtless, a public meeting will
 be called, and a petition widely cirou- lated, to be signed by the residents of the District, urging the construction of the road on the Government, through our Representative. A meet ing of the Council is called for Monday
 evening, to further discuss the matter.

DISCOVERY OF GOLD IN U. s.

The first discovery of gold in the United States was made in North Carolina in 1799. For fifty years the North and South Carolinas and Georg' ia produced nearly all the gold found in this country. The production gradu- ally increased until, just before the dis covery of gold in California, the out put was about s2,OOO,OOO per annum. In lS4S and I849 the miners moved en masse for the great placer fields Of California, and it was Georgians and Carolnians who furnished the first skilled placer miners on the Pacific coast. The southern states have pro- duced about ST, 7,5OO,OOO in gold since the year 1SOO. Of this amount North Carolina yielded nearly one-half, or about s22, 100000. Georgia comes next with about S17,OO0,00O.
 After the great exodus of miners in 1s4s and 1S49 the tremendous discover les first in California, then in Nevada and Colorado, turned the minds or all men to the great mineral resources of the West, and the southern mines be- ing low grade, were passed by unheed' ed. Then came the Civil War. But about 1890 work was gradually resumed in the southern mines. The production is now about s4OO,OOO per anuum.
 It may be of interest to point out that the first stamp mills built in Cal ifornia and Colorado were erected by Georgians from native patterns. They were very crude affairs, resembling the old Cornish tin stamp. It is cur, ious to note that many of the Georg fans and Caroliaus were descended from the old Cornish and Devon min CTS, who were captured at the battle oi Sedgemou in the reign of James Hand sold into slavery to work on the south ern plantations about the year 1887 The mining skill of the southerner; can hence be said to be hereditary Mining Reporter.

A small schooner has for several weeks been lowering around the straits between Cape Prince of Wales and East Cape says the Nome Nugget. Not till the return of some natives from Siberia and a note from "Bill Jones" who has a graphite mine on the Dio- medes, were the residents of Wales aware of the importance of the craft. Russian capital has joined with com bination of French bankers, and are surveying road through Northern Siberia and investigati ng the possibil itv of a connection with road on this side. The depth of water not being great it looks feasible to them to adopt Captain Siem's theory and fill in a roadway clear across. The Diomedes, lying midway, could be levelled down, and tons of rock obtained for the work. Cape mountain, with miles of high ground surely is promising field fo an inexhaustable supply of rock. Bar tel, WQO CldlmS tue uelSGOOLuOOu AOA tin purposes, could be easily brought into line, as it would bring him into closer communication with the Dutch barons, and provide cheap transporta- tion, together with an additional mar ket for his tin. Whether an ice boat, a tunnel. or rock fill will be recon mended is matter for the engineers to determine, but the people who are now Investigating the matter feel certain that a road is sure to come, as Russia will be easier to approach when she gets through with Japan, and the au- tocratic rule that has heretofore pre- vailed, will be given set back, as it surely should have. The masses will have more power, and the country, as a
 whole, be moro progressive. Let the

them after some years Of experience:
"In comparing the Dorset Horn with
other breeds Of sheep, il may be said
that it is somewhat larger than the

Shropshire in size. Rams at maturity

TO 175 pounds
