Alaska's Hiahest Volcanoes.

About $50 miles to the northwest Of Mount
st. Elias are the wonderfully impressive peaks
Of the Wrangel group, which owe their origin
largely to vulcanism. There are many peaks
in this group. but four, because of excessive
altitude, grandeur activity, demand special
attention.
Mount Sanford the highest, reaches an
elevation of 1920 feet while Blackburn is a
close second at 1910 feet Both of those
mountains are extinct volcanoes. Mount
Wrangell is great, fiat dome $4,000 feet
high and about 20 miles in diameter at its
base 1t is the only active volcano Of inland
Alaska. It's summit is snow-covered, but sur
rounding the vent is a coating of ash renewed
internationally by rolling clouds Of smoke and
vapor which sent up from the crater.
Mount Drum, also a volcanic cone, but now
deeply dssected, though but 10000 feet high,
is the most impressive one of the group. Stu
ated as it is, well out in the Copper river

observers undivided attention.
Much of the Wrangel range is covered
with ice and perennial snow, forming long,
fnger-like Alpine glaciers.
On the north west and south sides of the
group the melting snow and ice of the gla.
ciers form the tributaries of the Copper river,
which flows southwark through the Copper
river basin and breaks through the Chugach
mountains at about longitude 145 degrees, for
the most part in a narrow canyon Though
the Copper river in stretches is very swift and
dangerous, it serves as a route of approach 10
the inland gold and copper fields. The can
yons and rapids of the lower river, though
serious obstacles to navigation, have not pre-
vented the use of this route.
The Advent of Railways.
The onward march of civilization and ue
velopment, which has opened up western
states so wonderfully, is steadily at work in
Alaska. Already the screech of the locomo
tive has broken the silence of the mountain
Businesses, startling the mountain goats and
sheep from their haunts among the jagged
spurs along the canyons The Copper river
railroad is being steadily advanced against the
most difficult of engineering obstacles. 1t fol-
lows the valley of the river, crossing it twice
to the present point of its construction, and
another crossing will be made. If the present
rate of progress continues the road will soon
reach the base of the Wrangell mountains
and thus make 1t possible TO develop the cop
per deposits of that field. About 200 miles
to the west of the Copper river from Resur-
recton bay northward through a low pass in
the Kenai mountains the Alaska Central rail-
road company has commenced to build line
to the coal fields of the Matanuska valley and
is contemplating an extension up the valley
of the Susitna across low pass in the Alaska
range to Fairbanks, on the Tanana river, and
the center of large placer district.
The Alaska range stretches from little
explored region in the vicinity Of Lake Clark,
west of Cook Inlet northward for 100 miles or
more, then trends gradually eastward, increas-
ing in altitude until in Mount Mckinley it
attans the remarkable height of 10000 feet
1t is broken by gaps 2,400 feet and 5000 feet
above sea level. The eastern end of the
range rises again until at Mount Hayes an
elevation of 1880 feet Is reached
Words fail to express ones impression or
the Alaska range when viewed under favor
able circumstances In 1896, while making
trip through the Talkeetna mountains, the
writer had such an opportunity as is rarely
experienced. His view was from elevation
of about $500 feet on the foothills on the
western slope of the Talkeetna group. The
day was perfect; not cloud could be seen in
the heavens. Below lay the broad, level val
ley of the Susitna river, beautifully carpeted
in the deep green of the coniferae while here
and there shining patch of light, outlining
lake, broke the monotony and through the
center Of 1t all the Susitna wound like silver
trail.

PHILADELPHIA.

Philadelphia, Feb. 22.-President-
elect Taft was the principal speaker at
the exercises of the University of
Pennsylvania commemorative of the
birth of George Washington to-day.
The subject of his address was "The
Present Relations of Learned Profes-
sions to Political Government"
Judge Taft discussed at considerable
length the influences which learned
professions in this day have upon ma
tianal and municipal government. He
outlined luminously the part each of
the important profession plays in a
government by the people and COM
pared their influence, one with an
other Referring to newspapers and
the press Judge Taft said
"Its power of public instruction is
very great, but when it panders to
vulgariSt taste for sensationalism and
becomes entirely irresponsible in its in
fiuence for good, its pernicious tenden-
cy is obviated only by the power of
the people to protect themselves
against it by safe Discrimination and
healthy skepticism" Concluding he
said:
"The National exigency seem to call
forth men peculiarly fitted to meet the
requirements of the situation. Such
were Lincoln and Grant during the civil
war; such was Washington in the Rev.
olutionary war, the anniversary of
whose birth this University appropri-
ately makes its commencement day.
