ALASKA’S COLLEGE
Alaska’s Agricultural College and
School of Mines located near Fair
banks, may yet prove one of the
largest assets to the Territory we
have. Magnificently located, on the
brow of a hill overlooking the Alaska
railroad, the college is one of the
first points of interest seen by the
tourist. Under the able management
ot Charles E. Bunnell, its president,
the college is giving a course of stu
dies not to be found anywhere except
in the larger universities of the
States. The equipment is most com
plete and includes everything neces
sary in soil chemistry and analysis,
mining, business and metallurgy.
What strikes one most forcibly on a
trip through the college is the en
thusiasm of Principal Bunnell for
his work, and his belief in the fu
ture of the institution. A deplorable
lack of room for the proper placing
of equipment and the need of a dor
mitory to save students the long trip
to and from the town of Fairbanks,
is also apparent.
While the Territory is financially
embarrassed the next session of the
legislature should do everything pos
sible to help the institution in secur
ing the necessary buildings. Contrary
to popular belief the Territory does
not support this worthy institution,
the government giving $50,00 per
year toward its upkeep, but none ot
this appropriation can be used tor
buildings, but must be spent on sala
ries and equipment. It appears thal
to bring this amount of government
money into Alaska, the legislators
would be willing to do almost any
thing in reason to make the college
a success, but on the contrary the
greatest opposition to the institution
is said to come from residents of the
Fourth and Second divisions. The
coast legislators recognize the im
portance of the institution and are
unanimous in working for it.
In a few years Alaskans will see
many students from the States ap
plying for admission to our college,
not only by reason of the excellent
tuition accorded, but for the novelty
of finishing their education in the
Northland.
THE LIQUOR TREATY
(Dawson News)
The news that the senate of the
United States has failed to ratify the
treaty regarding the shipment of liq
uors in bond to Y'ukon via the port of
Skagway, after the treaty had been
signed by Minister Justice Lapointe,
and Secretary of State Hughes, came
somewhat in the nature of a shock
to us as a considerable part of the
revenues necessary for carrying on
business of Y'ukon is derived from the
' profits of the government liquor store
I the stocks of which are now all but
I exhausted. Negotiations have been
pending through the federal govern
ment, the British embassy and the U.
S. in the matter for nearly a year,
and it was hoped that things had been
satisfactorily arranged when the
treaty was signed. The action of the
United States senate causes much em
barrassment here, as the Yukon coun
cil has been marking time until it
found what funds could be relied upon
to carry on for the next year and
make appropriations for necessary im
provements.
There still remains the chance, how
ever, that the government can ship
liquors up the Yukon river under the
terms of the Treaty of Washington,
but that will cause delay and a heavy
expense. It is not likely that a car
go could be landed here until late in
the season.
In some quarters it is said that the
liquor interests in the United States
have maintained a strong lobby in
Washington, with the view7 of making
the dry law so obnoxious that there
will be a reversal of public sentiment
and a call for an election for the re
peal of the eighteenth amendment.
Others claim that the dry forces,
both of Canada and the United States
have been busy in Washington, put
ting up a fight against the ratification
of the treaty permitting the shipment
of liquor to Yukon through the port
of Skagway.
