Captain Jensen, of the steamer Ad. miral Evans, reports that the volcanoes to the westward as far as Kodiak are no more active this season than last and that while all are smoking no large amount of ash is being thrown into the air from any of the volcanoes be- tween Cooks Inlet and Kodiak.
 Among the passengers going through recently on the Evans for Knik was Ak el Olson and family. Axel is an old
 Alaskan sourdough and sailed from Se- attle with a complete modern outfit of
 machinery, tools and other equipment, to establish farm 15 miles from Knik Anchorage. The shipment contains
 everything needed for general and
 dairy farming, including blows, culti- vatore, harrows, mowers, milk separa- tors, coolers and the one hundred and one other appliances needed on a farm.
 In addition Olson is taking shipment of stock up on the Evans. Ten Jersey
 and Holstein cows, six hogs, fifty chick. ems, three geese and three horses form the major part of the shipment.-Cor- dova Alaskan.
 When the Alaska legislature comes into session again the mistakes of the first session will probably come useful in pointing out what should not be done. The chief lesson which can be learned from a survey of the former legislative work is that too much legis lation is worse than none, says the Sew ard Gateway. In sixty days the last time the legislature passed more than eighty laws and forwarded about forty resolutions to congress. That means that they passed law and a resolution for each day of the session, aud some of those laws were aimed at making revolutionary changes in matters of the most complicated and controversial description. The legislators tried to settle in about twenty.four hours the mining laws which all the people of the territory had been discussing for al. most as many years without being able to make up their minds. And the worst of it is that the legislators never thought of consulting the people of Alaska as to whether they considered the proposed changes good or bad. In- deed there were many places in Alaska where the change in the mining laws was not even heard of until months after tbe legislature had adjourned. In electing people to legislature such as Alaska needs there can be too much at' tention paid to the political leanings of the candidates. If the residents of any mining camp in the territory found it necessary, as they often have, to electa recorder or any other sort of an official to transact the work of the camp they never would take into account, and they never have taken into account, the political opinions of the men to be se- Iected. But when it comes to running the business of the whole territory the thing is entirely different. Party gov- ernment is the best kind that has been tried since human government was lrst It is impossible to have free government without parties, but when laying the ground work for a new terri tory, the party question could be left out, perhaps, with advantage by choos' ing the best men. The founders of the republic were practically one party un- til the nation could afford to divide.
