Sam Swanson,
 NOmeite Died Hospital Today

Sam U. Swanson, aged 79, an- other old timer of Nome and Sew ard Peninsula, passed away this morning at the Maynard Colum- bus hospital, of an heart ailment.
 Very little is known of MT. Swanson's affairs, as it was his custom to say, that was his busi- ness. He was afflicted with par tial deafness and it was very diff ficult to engage him in conversa- ton. He worked around mining operations for himself and others for a number of years but the last few years he has been re- ceiving a pension for which he was very grateful, every penny of it was guarded and used by him in way that gave him what little pleasure he got out of life.
 MT. Swanson owned his own cabin and lot, which is nearly op- posite the present court house, it is not known if he has any liv- ing relatives. He was native of Sweden, but came to the state of Illinois when mere boy, com ing to Nome during the gold rush days of 1900.
 Funeral arrangements have not as yet been completed, but the Pioneers of Alaska, which he was a member for many years, will attend his funeral.

A Thought for Today
Still No Special Session

Although Governor Wilbur L. Cross IS vltaliv concerned with the social prob ierns which have been entrusted to seV. aral special commissions of recent months, he does not believe that any or all of these groups will make such reports in the coming months that will necessitate calling special session or khe Legislature. All of which carries on the idea that Governor Cross feels as do \ minority of citizens, that special legis- latiye sessions, are in the main not pro- ductive of real results.
 The commissions now conducting hearings and investigations are those on new pauper laws, home for the feeple. minded, treatment of the insane ana mentally defective, and reorganization or the state government. The commission on the home for the feeble-minded IS ex- pected almost any day to announce the purchase of a site for new school. There is afl appropriation of $l50,000 for this, which IS also expected to cover the lnitiai cost of construction Of Q new 1eeple- minded home.
 The other groups In the due course or time will have interesting reports to furnish both legislators and citizens or the state So far as social problems are EUHGUIIlSQ tkkSIG 10 UbtSAA SSSAA avs se' nroyernent in this state And in making this statement we are aware of the strides made by Connecticut. The other day Governor Cross called together represen:. tatives of the four commissions. He said of the meeting, "While there was some minor difference of opinion, there was unanimous agreement on the nature or the problem and It's general solution. -" -.Allf of which indicates that the prob iems facing this group of commissions IS serious enough to warrant consideraple study, much discussion, and careful presentation of facts and recommen- dations There is no need rushing this data to the state earlier than the last part of this year, which will make 1t come in time for the opening of the 1887 Legis- lature. It is wise now to spread among the voters of the state the information that important social legislation may be required in 1887 and only legislators fl- terested in the same should be elected.
