PRESIDENT
 ON ALASKA
His Message 10 Congress De-
 notes Favorable Attitude

Following is that portion of President Roosevelt's message which touches on Alaskan topics.
 = reiterate my recommendations of last year as regards Alaska. Some form of local self-government should be pro- vided, az simply and inexpensiv as pos sible; it is impossible for the congress to devote the necessary time to all the little details of necessary Alaskan legis- lation.
 Road building and railway building should be encouraged.
 The governor of Alaska should be giv- en an appropriation to organize force to preserve the public peace. Whiskey selling to the natives should be made felony.
 The coal land laws should be changed SD as to meet the peculiar needs of the territory. This should be attended to at once; for the present laws permit individuals to locate large areas of the public domain for speculative purposes i; and cause an immense amount of trou. ble, fraud and litigation.
 There should be another judicial divi- sion established.
 Az early as possible lighthouses and buoys should be established as aids to navigation, especially on and about Prince William Sound, and the survey of the coast completed. There is need of liberal appropriations for lighting and buoying the southern coast and improv- ing the aids to navigation in Southeast Alaska.
 One of the greatindustries of Alaska, as of Puget Sound and the Columbia, is fishing. Gradually, by reason of lack of proper laws, this industay is being ruined; it should now be taken in charge and effectively protected by the government.
 l The courage and enterprise of the citi zens of the far Northwest in their pro. jected Alaska Y Yukon- Pacific Exposition 1 to be held in 1909, should receive liberal encouragement. This exposition is not 1 sentimental in it's conception, but seeks to exploit the natural resources of AL aska and to promote the commerce, trade and industry of the Pacific States with their neighboring states and with our insular possessions and the neigh boring countries of the Pacific. The exposition asks no loan from the con gress but seeks appropriations for na- tional exhibits and exhibits of the western dependencies of the general government. The state of Washington and the City of Seattle have shown the characteristic western enterprise in large donations for the conduct of this exposition in which other states are lending generous assistance.''
