Vermonters' interest in matters

NermOnters interest in matters of
great public concern will not be con
contracted on Washington today. They
are to have their decennial chance,
given them by the state constitution.
to make changes in that instrument.
Eight amendments have been passed
twice by the Legislature and so are to
come before the voters. The most. i'm
portant of these amendments would au-
thOrize the Legislature to pass work
men 5 compensation laws, prohibit spe-
cial acts of incorporation, require a
two-thirds vote to override a veto by
the governor, prohibit the Legislature
from committing death sentences and
change the date of the state election
from November to September. They
are expected to pass, except possibly
the last mentioned. Their adoption
would give Vermont further oppor-,
tunity for legislation uniform with
that of the other states.-T Springfield

Most of the amendments will doubt
less pass, and vet the display of in
terest in them has not been such as to
lead to the belief that affairs in Wash
ington will not be followed by folks
hereabouts.

ALASKA
 NOTES

Gold was first discovered in Alasl:sl in 1S4s. in the gravels and streams tributary to Kenai river by p. P. Doroshin. who was then making an examination of the mineral resources of the district for the Russian Amer . jean Company. owing to the low gold content of the auriferous grav- els found at that time, there was iit- tie prospecting. Scarcely anything is known of any activity in the gold fields of Alaska between 1880 and 1904. though it is stated gold was iis- covered on Cooper creek in 1884, on Resurrection creek in 1888. and at .An- chor Point in 1889. Placers were found on Bear and Palmer creeks in 1894 and on Canyon. Mills and Lynx creeks in 1895. These discoveries were followed. in 1896. by a stampede of several thousand men to this field. Crow creek was staked at this time hut did not yield any gold until two years later. In 1898 another rush, partly an overflow from the Klon ,ne stampede, was made to the Turnaeai, , section.
