The gas boat and steam boat men or this region are very much in censeds against the action of the Geo detic Survey in refusing to charter any boats in Alaska for the drag survey work to be done by the govern ment in the north this year. As an- nounced in these columns some time ago, over seventy vessels, many of them from this region, submitted Lids to the government for charters. The local boats are all good able yes sels, peculiarly adapted for the work, fut not single one of them was in speeted and not one chartered by the department. The announcement is made that among the vessels charter ed is the old tug Equator which steam boat men who should know, say was condemned for further use years ago by the government inspectors, and this when good able ships were offered for less money. Discrimina tion of this kind is, to say the least, unfair. and opens the way for pos sible charges of graft.

FROM WEDNESDAYS DAILY MEASURE FOR REVENUE
 HAS BEEN PREPARED

A measure for raising revenue for territorial purposes by taxation has been prepared by the Legislature, pro- viding for the officers and the means of collection.
 It goes into detail concerning banks, banking and stock and corporate stock of all kinds, and seemingly has en- ,leavored to avoid duplication of tax os on stocks, where possible.
 Regarding fishing companies, it provides that before Sept. 18th of each year every such firm must make out and forward by registered mail to the tax commission detailed state ment of its output and value of all Improvements during the year prev ious to the last day of September. The tax commission shall then assess the output of such firm.
 All mines and mining claims shall be taxed at "the price paid the United States therefor..' The output is taxed as personal property and all Improvements shall be taxable, as we'll as improvements on mining ground used for other purposes.
 The detailed statement to be fur nished the assessor must contain "the actual expenditures of money and labor in extracting the ore 1r mineral from the mine and transpd tation of same to the mill or reduc Tn works, and the reduction of the oi and the conversion of the same into money or it's equivalent during the year."
 The usual penalties are attached for false statements or refusal to com- ply with the law in any manner.
