First Newspaper
In Alaska Was
Printed at Sitka
The “Pahasapa Quarterly” pub
lished by the South Dakota School of
Mines at Rapid City, South Dakota,
a copy of the April number of which
has been received contains the fol
lowing.
“The first newspaper published in
Alaska was the Sitka Times. In
stead of being in conventional type it
is dressed in writing, and for this
reason is all the more interesting in
j displaying the disadvantages which
the people of the country then had to
meet.
“Volume 1, No. 1, was issued pi
Sitka on Saturday, September 19,
1868, a little less than one year after
the United States came into full pos
session of the territory. The first of
ficial overture for the purchase of
Alaska was made during the presiden
cy' of James Buchanan. The purchase !
at the price of $7,200,000 was consum- i
mated March 30, 1867, and formal!
transfer of the territory was made at j
Sitka, October 18 of the same year.
The total number of inhabitants at
that time was about 30,000, of whom .
less than 500 were white people. The
value of the products of Alaska since
its purchase by the United States, in
cluding furs, fishery products and
| minerals, is approximately $500,000,
000. Sitka, the early capital of Alas- j
ka, is in many ways the most inter
esting of all the Alaska towns. It is i
located on a bay famed for its tran- j
scendent beauty. It was for some ]
years the center of Alaskan inter- I
ests of all kinds, but recent discover- j
ies of mineral wealth throughout the
S teritory have gradually taken away
jfrom its importance.”
The publication reproduces in four
I plates the first number of the Sitka
j Times in reduced form. “The origi
| nal,” it says, “is in two sheets,, and
each sheet is written on both sides.
The size of the sheets is approximate
ly eight by 12 inches. Nearly all lines 1
in the original are in red ink. The pa- !
per is a recent gift to the School of
Mines from Joseph B. Gossage, found
! er and editor of the Rapid City Daily
[Journal, he having received it years
[ ago from a friend. The sheets will
j be mounted and placed on exhibition
I in the School of Mines, where they
I will serve as a most interesting sou
j venir of the early history of this rich j
northern land.”—Iditarod Pioneer. j
OLD FAIRBANKS JUDGMENT
NOT GOOD AT YAKIMA
NORTH YAKIMA, Wash., July 28.
—Judge Grady this morning denied
the application of Z. A. Scouse and
Lorenee Byrnes, of Seattle, to have
;the property of the Alaska Y'akirr.a
1 Investment company, composed prin
i cipally of Nob Hill land adjacent to
this city, made subject to the judg
j ment of ?18,000, interest and costs,
1 obtained several years ago in Fair
! banks, Alaska against Mrs. Belinda
Carbonneau and sister, Miss Margaret
Mulrooney.
The trial lasted 20 days and much J
of the testimony was a sensational re
cital of gay times in Alaska and lav
ish expenditures of money in Paris
and other European capitals, when
Mrs. Carbonneau and her sister trav
eled with Count Carbonneau, hero of
many Alaska escapades.
Plaintiffs claimed that the Nob
Hill ranch was purchased with money
stolen from them, involved in the fail
ure of the Mulrooney bank at Fair
banks, while defendants alleged, and
court decision today sustains them,
that the moneys used here were pro
ceeds of a sale of property in Alaska,
purchased when the jewels and fine
clothing given Mrs. Carbonneau and
her sister during their European trip,
were sold.
