 Seward is entitled to be sub-port of entry with deputy collector of cus- toms in charge.

If so, he might drop from the pay rolls half dozen or more deputies hanging around his headquarters. The matter of deputy collector for Seward should be taken up with the treasury department, and over the head of the collector, whose range of vision evidently does not ex- tend beyond the limits of Southeastern Alaska.-Gateway.

Alaska is to have a new governor, and it seems he has been selected with a view to reconciliEg the discordant elements which have been scalping each other up here in this land of en- chanting distances. The new governor is newspaper man and of course is accustomed to being abused and called liar and a sneak. He likes it; and some of us don't care whether be likes it or not, if he lays himself broadly open to criticism he will get it. This paper intends to welcome him in words and acts of kindness, and we believe the majority of Alaskans will do like wise. Here is chance for MT. Clark to become great. He can easily get in touch with the people, help us form territorial government and become it's first governor. In ten years we will want statehood Then senators and congressmeu will be needed. It's upto you. Mr. Clark k.-Ketchikan Miner.
 During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1908, the Bureau of Education main- tained 59 United States public schools for natives of Alaska (of which 10 were established during the fiscal year),with 73 teachers, an enrolment of 3,036, aud an average attendance of 1,197. The 59 schools are distributed throughout Alaska as follows: On the shores of the Arctic ocean, of Boring sea aud on the rivers emptying into those waters north of the mouth of the Yukon, 20; in the valleys of the Yukon and Rusko- kwim, B; on the shores of southern Bering sea, ou the North Pacific ocean west of the Hist meridian, and on rivers emptying into those waters, g.; on the mainland and on the islands in Southeastern Alaska, IS. The cost to the government of these schools based ou average attendance was S65.99 per pupil. The district having the poorest attendance was the southeastern, the average attendance being below 9 per cent.
 A Chicago paper says: "The Alaskan, now playing at the Great Northern theatre, is one of the best musical com edies ever seen in Chicago. This play opened at the Great Northern on April 11th, and has played to crowded houses at every performance since that time. It is ably rendered by an excellent company, and from the patronage it is receiving it will no doubt have long and successful run here. This play has been rewritten and restaged since it's appearance in New York, and in 1t now one gets refreshing change from the average musical comedy. The scenes are taken from Nome and Daw- son and are peopled with miners, pros- peotors and Eskimos, and the Alaskan atmosphere is acquired by the intro duction of dog teams, Eskimo canoes, totem poles and polar bears. The scene at the mine where water continually runs through the sluice boxes is very realistic, and the snow storm which follows makes one almost feel they were in the Golden North. From the time the curtain rises in the first act to the time it is lowered in the last, an an opalescent radiance of beauty and sentiment steals over the audience, and the play is one that wakes to life again laughing and sympathetic world"
