THE COMMERCE OF ALASKA.

The report of Customs Collector Hobart of Alaska for the year of 1908. which was published in yester, days Alaskan, has some instructive features. The value of the total i'm ports to Alaska for the year were more than S3,OoO.OOO less than in 1907 and more than $TOOOOOo less than in 1906. This is rather surpris, ing.
 The exports, however. are on the increase. The value of the exports in 1908 is close to $2.OOo,oOo greater than in 1907.
 Skagway stands third in point of the value Of the imports received by southeastern Alaskan towns. Tread, well is first with SSl3.656; Juneau second with $63g,O93; and skagway has s52O.296. It is significant to note that the imports in Skagway in creased more than s96,OOO in 1908 over 1907. while both Juneau and Treadweu show decrease in the inn ports.
 In the whole district the govern meut makes a profit of IS cents of each dollar collected. In skagway the customs office is operated at a loss. as it costs sI.26 to collect each dollar. It is amusing to note that at Kodiak the government spent $S26 in maintaining customs collectors and the yearly receipts were $4.
 On the whole the report is not dis. couraging. It shows that the com merce of Alaska almost held it's own through a year of great financial de pression and the indications are that the imports and exports in 1909 will exceed those of 1908 by comSorta- ble margin.

 BIRTHDAY.

As yet with the exception of spec. ial exercises in the public schools Of a most appropriate nature, and dec, Iaratiou of legal holiday by the mayor of the town. no steps have been taken by Skagway's residents to fittiugly honor the memory of Ab. raham Lincoln on the hmdredth annt yersary Of his birth. Feb F.
 Something should be done in the way of holding public meeting to celebrate the birth of the Great Am erican Emancipator. Lincoln was probably the greatest American. Som consider his the most noble character in all history. A man of most humbI birth. he rose above his ignorant and sQuaHd surroundings and by sheer force Of character was elected prest- dent of the United States. Never once did he. while in the height of his power. forget the people. He was a man of the people, their interests were his During all the roublous times Of strife in the Civil war Lin. coln's firm guidance never taltered. Hc lived just long enough to see the Rebellion ended; then the assas, sins bullet ended his life.
 Liucoln's life is so beautiful. his character so lofty, his patriotism so near perfection, that it would be well for us in Skagway to set aside some two hours of the day of his birth to gather together and pay fitting tribute to that man Of men.
 The Alaskan will heartily cooperate in this movement Surely there are public spirited men in Skagway who can spare part of their time to ar. range the details of the meeting.
