ALASK A'S QOLD OUTPUT
The other day the Daily Alaskan esti
mated the gold output of Alaska (or the
calendar year 1906 at $20, 000,00*). it
published the accepted estimates by
competent authorities from each of the
district* of Alaska showing the outout
to be 121 400,000, but it dropped tbe odd
$1,400,000 for good measure. Since
those estimates were published news
hat been received that Jafet Lindeberg,
the richest miner of Nome and head of
the largest mining company there, says
the estimate for Nome, $6,500,000, was
too low by fl, 500,000. Then came J.
Wesley Young to say that the P.. id part
estimate was too low by $150, 000. Now
comes the superintendent of the Alaska
Pacific Express Company, Percy G.
Charles, who says the Fairbanks esti
mate was too low by a quarter of a
quarter of a million dollars. To accept j
these latter authorities would be to
raise the estimated production for tbe
year to $23,300,000.
It might be well to say at this time
that after the season was over last year,
and all the returns in, the director of
the mint placed the output of Alaska
much higher? more than 91.500,000
higher? than were the estimates for
that year which were made in the
same way as were the estimates for
this year which total $23,300,000.
It is fair to say, however, that esti
mates by some of tbe Fairbanks bank
ers do not place the Tanas* output as
high as do others of the bankers or as
high aa do Mr. Charles, Mr. Cale and
others of that district. An estimate
accepted by the Alaska road commis
sion, prepared by a conservative Fair
banks banker of ability whose banking
house has handled much of the Tanana
gold, places the production for the year
at $7,500,000. The road commission's es
timate of the output of Southeasern
Alaska is smaller than that made by
Gov. Hoggatt in his Ketchikan speech.
It places the output for the district at a
little less than $19,000,000.

UNDIGNIFIED AND CN3TATES
M ANIXKE
The charge made by Secretary Root
thst Hearst w?s responsible for the
assassination of the late President Mc
Kinley, and the assertion that in mak
ing the charge he spoke for President
Roosevelt, will not add to the dignity
or stature of either the president or sec
retary as statesmen. It was sufflcient
for sane peopt? to treat such a baseless
and childish charge with patience
when it made by excited people just
after the death of a man whose oerson
all'.T was universally loved and admir
ed, out to have the charge made now,
after five years have elapsed, and thet
by a secretary of state speaking for the
chief executive of the nation, consti
tutes a display of littleness that is be
yond the limit. It will be strange if
Secretary Root's speech does not react
to help Hearst. There is only man who
can prevent it from doing so, and that
is Hearst, himself, whose methods
Roosevelt and Root seem to have adopt
ed as their own. It will certainly re
act to the detriment of the public esti
mate of the president and his secretary
of state.
The Junean tory combine, that failed
to seduce the voters of Alaska by in
trigue, falsehood and honeyed words,
and which is now trying to ride over
them rough shod and by brute force,
was repudiated in their own town by
tremenduos odds on election day.

Skagway'a Valuation 1 noreaues
The assessed valuation of Sitagway's
real am1, personal property this year is
about $10,000 greater than it was last
year. It is $619,000. Some of the
property was reduced in valution but
the increase in the railroad valuations
was sufficient to mg.? than make up
for it. The rate of taxation is one ; per
cent., as usual. It is estimated that
this will pay up the last of the city's
indeotedness by July 1st, next.
