The officials of the United States
land Office have determined to stop the
destruction of Alaska forests by fire II
that is possible. Anyone starting fire
or permitting one to be started will be
prosecuted if evidence can be secured
against him, and determined effort
will be made in each case to secure the
evidence needed. John w. Dudley,
head of the land office, has been in
Skagway month personally supervis-
ing the work of fighting the fires in
that vicinity.
Floyd Van Give, Pat Brennan, Walt
er Snelgrove, Mike Sharkey, Alfred
Nelson, George Smith, and Ben Erl, ac-
cording to the Nome Nugget, have ar
rived at Nome from the whaling ship
Thrasher, lying in Grantley Harbor.
The men declare they deserted the
ship because of i'll treatment and made
their escape in a small boat, although
ordered by the mate at the point of
pistol to return. Five shots they allege
were fired at them.
The greatest piece of engineering
work ever attempted in the Kougarok
district will be started by L. r. Hare,
the we'll known mining man, this sum-
mer. The work contemplated is the
driving of a tunnel 761 feet long
through solid quartz in order to turn
the course Of the Kougarok river. In
accomplishing this unusual feat over
three and a half miles of river will be
drained and water pressure of 246 feet
will be secured at the lower end of the
tunnel. This will be utilized for hy-
draulicking.
Assistant Secretary Taylor, of the
treasury department, states in an inter
view at Skagway that he will urge that
all of the revenue cutters which are
sent to Alaska be equipped with oil
burners on account of the high cost of
coal in Alaskan waters. Before any
such recommendation is carried into eff
feet, it would be we'll to become thor
oughly informed about the situation.
The high price of coal in Alaska is
temporary condition, which will be
speedily changed. Before the various
revenue cutters on this Coast could be-
come equipped with oil burners, the
probabilities are that there will be an
abundant supply of cheap and good
coal at the Alaska ports where the cut
ters will be obliged to call.
Word comes from Orca that the sal
mon run this year is greater than ever
before known. Already the cannery
has 10000 cases put up and as they are
prepared for catch of only $4,000 cases
they will be through within few days.
Only red salmon are being taken. In
one day the cannery threw away aoouC
10000 salmon. They could not make
cans fast enough to take care of the
fish and this catch was destroyed, The
company has contract with the fish
ermen to take all they can catch at
four cents apiece and when the catch
was brought in the company had to
receive it. The salmon are caught some
distance from the cannery-these near
Latouche island-and are brought to
the cannery wharf by small steamers.
By the time they reach there they are,
of course, dead and if the cannery can
not use them they are entirely wasted.

At Council City and Nome there is
strong agitation of a project to hold a
territorial convention, with delegates
from different parts of Alaska in at
tendance. The purpose of the conven-
ton will be to select delegate to con-
gress. The suggestion, as outlined, is
to have every Alaska community with
500 population send at least one dele
gate, the larger communities to be rep
resented in proportion.
The peculiar conditions existing in
Alaska demand special treatment, and
it is within the power of Congress to
pass such legislation that is needed to
meet thes se conditions, what though it
be of special character For it must be
borne in mind that when Congress
takes up the consideration of Alaska
affairs that body actually sits as the
legislature of Alaska. 1t is true that
it's knowledge of its great constituency
is somewhat limited, but Congress is
showing disposition to learn of Alas
ka, it's resources, and even of its geo
graphical location. There are members
of Congress who actually know that
Sitka is not the northern boundry of
the district.-Nome Nugget.

In last week issue the Pilot took oc

Manitowoc Daily News for misbehavior.

behind the left ear and knocked him in

state he remained about thirty hours.

wildered state of mind with the bacilli
in his blood still raging, he undertook
