ABOUT GOLD PRODUCTION
When Gov. Roggati made tha;
fatuous Ketchikan speech, which the
tort its hailed as a ringing declaration
that would, litce Lincoln's Gettsburg
speech and othors, go winging down the
ages.the Daily Alaskan said that be had
oeen unfair in his statement with refer
ence to the amount of Alaska's gold
output ami particular; unfair in what
he said of its distribution. He bad
placed the total at $l.'i,000,0X>, distri
buted equally among the three judicial
divisions. The Djily Alaskan quoted
figures showing the output would ex
ceed 920,000,000, though it admitted
that Gov. Hoggatt's estimate for South
eastern Alaska was too high bv about
$1,000,000.
Friends of the governor ridiculed the
Dally Alaskan's estimate. They point
ed to the estimate of the road commis
sion which placed it at $17,000,000.
This was accepted by Walter Clark in
the write up he gave Alaska in the
Seattle l'o$t Intelligencer, and New
York Commercial. The Daily Alaskan
refused to reduce its figures. It con -
tended that the output would be nearer
42l.000.00>1 'han $20,0 O,000, an amount
it rixed upjn in a spirit of extreme con
servatism.
The director of the mint has male an
estimate, basing it upon statistics from
:he Seattle assay office, the San Fracis
co mi.tt. the Alaskan custom houses,
express companies and banks. He
places the output ;it 921 250,000. The
estimate of the director of the mint is
a' ways accepted as final on a question
of gold production.
Gov. Hoggatt was 30 per cent, too
high ia his estimate of the Souteastern
A las .can or. put hut 40 per cent, too low
on the total production.

BANNER RAILWAY YEAR
More miles of railway were built iD
the Tnited States in 190?; than aov other
year since 1**7. The record of com
pleted construction for the present year
is i?>7 miies In 1S87 the record was
T 10?> miles. The year previous, 1886,
was the oanner year in the country's
history? l:! t>X) mile#.
As usual. Texas lead the states of the
t'nion in l:^i>> in the Dumber af mile* of
railway completed. Itsreoord was 701
miles.
The Pacific Coast states rank second
aaior.? the groups of states in railway
construction.
The attorney engaged to represent
the negro troops who were dismissed
by President Uoosevelt confesses the
weakness of his contention tb?l the
act of the president was illegal when
he says he will not invoke the aid of
the courts unless all other remedies
fail. If he has a good c?se he should
invoke the aid of courts firs! of all.
That is the remedy for the jredress of
wrongs the American government
places In the hands of every citizen.
The city ordinances require property
owners to keep the sidewalks in front
of their premises clear of snow. It is
the duty of everyone Jto help enforce
the ordinance. The burden will not be
great if evryone will assist in bearing
it.
The Fairbanks Times says it will not
accuse Gov. Hoggatt of sectionalism.
It is not necessary. He has admitted it
very often.

BIS LIFE i
Wasfeey's Record as he
Wrote it
Hon. Fnnk H. Waskey is modest
ami direct if we are to judge him by
the record of his life as he wrote it for

graduating from the Minneapolis high
school: went to Alaska in 1898, and
engaged in mining: was married
August 10, JiKH, to Miss Edna Blodgett,
of Ballard, King county, Wash.: was
nominated on the Alaska ticket for
delegate to the Fifty-ninth congress,
and elected August 14, 190t>, receiving
4,849 votes to 2,252 for C. D. Murane, J
republican: 1,581 for A. P. Swineford, .
democrat, and 209 scattering. The
Alaska ticket received the endorsement
of the republicans and democrats In ?
the third judicial divistoa and of the
democrats in the second. Murane was '
nominated by the republicans of the
first and second judicial divisions and !
Swineford by the democrats of the first ]
division. Party lines were not ob- 1
served in the voting." i
