The bill introduced by Delegate Wickarsham to grant the Territorial Legislature poweE to manage the fish, cries, the game, fnr-bcaring and other wild animals, was -eferred by the Territories committee to the De- .partment of the Interior. An adverse report was made by Secretary Wilbur, who writes to the committee as fol- lows:
 q transmit herewith copy of a letter from the Hon. George A. Parks, Governor of. the Territory of Alaska, -to whom the kilE was referred by me tor report as to the necessity for, as well as the advisability of, the enact -ment of the legislation contemplated in the bill. It will. be seen therefrom that he regards the present policy of the Government in the controlling of the fisheries and wild life as adequate and satisfactory, and that the Terri tory is not financially able to assume the burden. whick would he imposed on it unders the bill. concur in the conclusions of the Governor in this matter, and recommend. that the bllE be not given favorable consideration" !"
 In his. conclusions the Governor states that "under the policies that are in effect the fisheries are being protected and the depleted areas re- stored to normal production" To do tKis work the: appropriations made and expended by the Government for the past three years have been as follows: 1929, $$41s, ,456; 1880. $A14,- 'Oe1; 1881, 4s7,868. The Governor adds that the average yearly revenue derived by the Territory from all sources over the. past five. years av- erages about $l,000,00O yearly, and then states: "Reuenuex are deereas- ing instead of increasing and there must be an4 increase in taxes next year to meet essential demands.

The Washington office of the Yer mont Marble Company states that the specifications for the new Federal building at Fairbanks require consid- erable "Tokeen" marble. As a conse- quence the operations at Tokeen, near Wrangell, which have been idle for the past two years, are about to re- sume operations with 2 crew of 75 men at the quarries.
 Secretary of the Interior Wilbur has submitted to the chairman of the appropriations committee that econ omies in Federal administration can be brought about by the placing of health, education and conservation
 .ndcr assistant secretaries. In this connection he submitted chart show ing the complicated Federal admins tration in Alaska. It was pointed out that unification of control, and espe cially single all-embracing budget, would effect great economy in that Territory.
 Delegate Wickersham has been in- formed that the House joint resolu- tion providing for the appropriation of $30.O0O to defray the expenses of participation by the Government in the Second Polar Year program, Au- gust 1, 1882, to August 31, 1883, is likely to pass the Senate and thus be- come law, as the resolution has at- ready passed the House. Most of this money will be used to erect and main tain a station at Fairbanks. Accord ing to the plan, there are to be some 80 stations established throughout the world, supported by various govern ments of the world. To certain gov ernments are allotted certain stations, and to other governments are allotted certain other stations. Our Govern ment is allotted station at or near Fairbanks, Alaska. The idea IS that at an instantaneous moment through out the world the whole 80 stations will take observations, so that when all the data is gathered together the station in Alaska can say what hap pened at that station on that partic- ular day and at that particular min ute. It could not be brought to such accuracy fifty years ago when the other polar year was held, but by req son of the radio it can be brought to the very instant. The consequence will be that when the station ir Alas ka says that the polar lights ap- peared at certain time and sertain things happened, the stations of the world can say what happened By vir- tue of the polarse lights lights at their particular stations,

duced 76.93 per cent of the revenues, and obviously it is impossible to fur ther burden them to provide any where the sum necessary to maintain an organization such as is now ed- ministering the fisheries. Obviously the Territory is not financially able to assume the burden that would be inn posed by the bill. The situation with regard to the game is much the same. Approximately $100,0O0 is expended each year by the Biological Survey for warden service and predatory an- imal contro. The combined service is now costing approximately $55O,OOO per year, and even though it could be had for half the sum the Territory could not finance the organization" !" The Governor further adds that ''it
 not advisable to place the burden on the Territory until such time as it is shown that it is financially able to provide adequate safeguards to re- place those now functioning."
 The Department of the Interior has request before Congress for the continuance of the use of the U. s. Is. s. Boxer. If this request is grant, ed and Congress provides the funds to operate the Boxer, it will be used by the Bureau of Indian Affairs in in- creasing the medical relief work among the native villages in South eastern Alaska, including Sitka, and in transporting to the Juneau Native hospital such natives as need hospital care.

some such grant should be made principally to relieve Con
