Oy Washington ssore Progress commtssl0o

A bill was introduced in the Unit
ed States Senate on February Z,
1871 under which the Territory of
Alaska was to become a county of
the Territory of Washington. It was
read twice and referred to the COM
! mittee on Territories, but was de-
feated.
Under the terms of the bill Alas
ka would have been entitled to one
councilman and two members of the
lower house of the legislature of the
Territory of Washington. The Unit
ed States district attorney and the
United States marshal for Wash
ington would have performed the
same duties for Alaska.
Mr.. Archie w. Shiels of the Pa
cific American Fisheries, Inc, South
Bellingham in a letter to Asahel
Curtis of Seattle, who is engaged
in some special historical work,
says research discloses that this
bill was defeated in the Senate, not
from any sentimental considera-
ton for Alaska; according to the
debates it was generally felt that it
would work great hardship on the
State of Washington to be saddled
with Alaska. Therefore the roster
of Washington's counties does not
read Adams, Alaska, Asotin, as 1t
might have had the bill gone
through.
