Alaska Day; Early pIOrations and Discov-
 cries by the Russians

Mote: Facts herein reprinted from publication by Territorial Commis- sioner of Edueation.)
 This is Alaska Day. Fifty-seven years ago todav-October Is, 1867--the formal transfer of Alaska from Russia Co the United States took place. Brig adien General Lowell H Rousseau act ed for the United States government and Prince Maksout0ff represented Russia, although the actual ceremony of the trrnsfer was performed by Cap tain Alexei Pestchourof The Amer 1can flag used in this ceremony now re- poses in vanlt of the Department of State. The Russian flag was lowered by Russian sai ior,,and the Stars and Stripes hoisted by George Lowell Reus- seau., 8 son Of Brigadier General Rous- Seau.>
 What is now the Territory ofsAlaska was. until 1887, a part of the Russian empire, known as Russian America. The name Alaska is derived from the Aleut word Alakshak, meaning Ia great country OF continent,a Credit for tho discovery ofthe Alaska coast is given to Michail Gvozdef, "geodesiss, {" or surveyor, who assumed command of an expedition originally headed by Ivan Gedorot and designed to secure Information concerning the ''great lsndp1 to the east of Siberia, whose ex- istenee was reported by the Chukchi, natives, inhabiting Northeastern, Si- beria .Gvozdef is presumed to have Gouched.the coast of Alaska near Cape

ileged companies who derived their authority from. imperial ukase. This system relieved the situation te a small exteat only. However, the treatment which had been accorded the natives resulted in numerous reprisals on their part. and much shedding of Russian and Indian blood marked Russia s early contact with Alaska.
 In the list of early explorers a mum Der of names stand out prominently. Grigor lvanovich Shelikof, after whom Shelikof strait was. named, explored the Aleutian islands, Kodiak island, the Alaska peninsGIat Cook inlet and Prince William sound duriGg the years 1783. .S6..
 Alexander Baranof was the first of the explorers and traders to visit Southeastern Alaska. His voyage was made in 1799. Baranof island bears his name.
 Otto von Kotzebue commanded an expedition which had as it's object the discovery Of the northeast passage Lo Europe. The expedition sailed from Petropaviovsk, Siberia, in the samher of 1916 and proceeded through Beriag strait, thence eastward until the shah lows made further progress impossible, although open water yet appeared to the eastward. Kotzebue sound, the body of water which was navigated, bears the. name of the leader of the ex- peaisionY
 In 1922, Etholen and Vassilaief made a detailed survey of Bristol bay, west ward to the mouth of the .Kuskokwim river E
 h 1883 Andret Glazanof, a creole person with Russian father and Aleut mother1, conducted aa overland expedi- tion from Norton sound to the AnVik river, thence down it to the Yukon river. where some time was spent ia exploration. The expedition finally proceeded down the Yukon to itf mouth. Glazanof subsequently, explored much of the delta region of the Yukon, which was at thattime densely popu- lated. He also crossed the portage to the Kuskok vim river, From this point he attempted to cross to Cook inlet. but shaped his course LOO far to the north and was forced to return to the Kusko- kwim. thence to the Yukon, from which point he proceeded to the Rus sian post at Mix haielovsk, on Norton sound.
 The first permanent settlement of the Russians was established at Three Saints Bay, Kodiak island, in l783, by Shelikof, who is credited with having opened the first school in. Alaska at this place in 1765 A second permanent settlement was estab blisbed in l786 in Cook inlet at the mouth of the Kasilof river. near the present site of Kenai.
 The early settlements in Alaska, however, [ center around Alexander Baranof. At first an independent trader. then agent for the Shelikof company, and later the originator. and for nineteen years manager of the Rus Sian American Compant which exer- cised practically absolute dominion over Alaska for 67 Gears, or from the

 Chirikof's crew also suffered greatly from scurvy and other diseases. His homeward iourpey was. besss with many difficulties, including the mas sacre of two boat loads of men by the savage inhabitants of the country.
 It was principally on the voyages of Boring and Chirikof that Russia based her claim to the ownership of North western America. 7.
 Without doubt the otter and other fur bearing animals had much to do with the further exploration and colo nizatioD of Alaska The discovery exr petition brought back glowing tales of the wealth in furs that abounded insthe new land, and the next half century witnessed a number of expeditions which. were confined mainly to. the Aleutian islands and the Alaska penin- sula aud which had,as. their object the acquisition of sweRlGh. !" In speaking of the, partFwhich furs played in the exr ploration and settlement Of Alaska, Bancroft History of Alaska, 1S85l makes the following statement: Cali 1t science, or patriotism, or progress. there is this to be sad about the first Russian discoveries in America-little would have been heard of them for some time to come, if ever, had it not been for the beautiful furs brought back from Boring island and elsewhere.
