X" T ERETOFORB no detailed
I I statistics of commerce with
JL. M Alaska have been obtntn
ablo because of the fact
that no provision of law existed for the
collection of'Statistlcs of commerce be
tween customs districts of the United
Ptates; and as Alaska was by law a
customs district, such statistics could
not be gathered, under the law. When
the Hawaiian Islands and Porto Rico
were also made customs districts of
tho United States nnd the collection of
statlsths of our commerce with those
Islands was rendered Impracticable, a
measure providing for the collection of
statistics of trade between the United
States and all of its non-contiguous
territories was framed by the Bureau
of Statistics, approved by the secretary
of the treasury, sent to congress,
rasscd, and signed by tho president;
and beginning with the new fiscal year
the record of trade between the' United
States and all of its non-continguous
territory will be available In form simi
lar to that of commerce between the
United States arid foreign countries.
The fact that statistical statements
of the commerce and conditions of
Alaska have not been regularly made In
the past, renders the attempt to pro
sent u picture of present conditions In
Alaska a difficult one. Necessarily, tho
Information is fragmentary. Aside
from the statistics of population pub
lished by the census, and statements of
the number of fur seals taken by the
lessors of tho Prlbllof Islands, tho num
ber of cans of salmon packed, and tho
number of fish taken, as reported by
the special agent of the treasury de
partment, and tho statements of gold
production reported by tho mint bu
reau, little Information of a statistical
nature is available. Even these re
ports are extremely meager, nnd in
most cases the statements are simply
those of quantity unaccompanied by
estimates of value. The shipments of
merchandise between the United States
and Alaska have been considered as
coastwise commerce and no reports of
tho value of merchandise so trans
ported have been made to the collec
tors; while In many cases the mani
fests are so Indefinite In statements of
quantity that It has been found difficult
to obtain satisfactory estimates In de
tail of the movements of merchandise
Into and out of Alaska. The fluctua
tion In prices of tho seal and other
furs andVtho salmon and other fish,
which have, been, until recent years,
ti.o chief industries of Ala&ka, coupled
wun me luct mat in the official re-.
ports only quantities were stated, have
In the past rendered detailed state
ments of values, year by year, difficult.
The statements which follow as to the
Industries nnd their result from a fi
nancial standpoint, are the results of
careful inquiries from collectors of cus
toms, both In Alaska and the United
States, by the various governors of
Alaska and their subordinates, and by
the special agents of tho government
appointed to report, upon the various
industries.
In general terms, It may bo said that
Alaska, for which tho United States
paid Russia $7,200,000 In ISO", has sup
; piled furs.MIsh and gold amounting to
S about $150,000,000 In value, about equal-
ly divided between these three Items;
that tho Investments of capital from
5 the'UMtcd States In Alaska are prob
5 ably $23,000,000, with a largo additional
5 sum Invested In transportation to that
territory; and that tho unnual ship
ments of merchndise to Alaska now
aggregate mora than $12,000,000, and
; have aggregated slnco the purchase
i nearly or quite $100,000,000. Meantime,
tho population has grown from nn estl
, mated 30,000 nt the date of purchase'
1 to 32,052 m 1S90; 63,682 in 1000, and an
estimated 75,000 nt tho present time,
The -number of fur seals tuken on tho
Prlbllof islands from 1870 to 1901 Is,
"g.187,317, - worth $35,000,000; and tho
value of tho seal and other furs taken
.fln.ee tho purchase of Alaska by tho
United States is estimated nt about
Tso.OOO.Opa. .The fur seal Industry, which
pasjijcilned In tho last few years, was
$iiepcoded by tho fishing Industry, Alas
ka now supplying about one-half of thp
'salmon of thH country. The value of
the salmon pack In Alaska lust year Is
estimated at about $7,000,000, and the
.total yalue of the fish taken in Alaska
Since the purchase about $50,000,000;
wh' the value of gold and silver mined
HE ADDRESS of President
AVyeth at tho Saratoga meet
ing of the American Medical
association, published In full
In Saturday's Medical Record, contains
a number of practical suggestions re
lating to tho public health. Dr. Wyeth
hits from the shoulder and calls a
spade a. spade.
He strongly urged tho creation by
congress, as part of the proposed ex
ecutive department of commerce nnd
Industries, of a bureau of public health,
to be In chnrge of a medical officer to
direct our foreign and Insular quaran
tine, Interstate quarantine, tho medical
supervision of epidemics, nnd, In fact,
all jnattcrs pertaining to the general
health of any group of states, or of tho
entire country. Especially did ho In
dorse tho paying of greater attention
to mliltnry hygiene.
He deplored the lack of power which
medical organizations exert in shaping
legislation affecting publle sanitation,
saying; "It is a fact painful to ac
knowledge that of the three so-called
learned professions, tho ministry, law,
und medicine, ours Is accorded the In
ferior position, and wo who, day In and
out, In every home of tho land, are
close to the personal friendship of our
patients, respected and loved as Indi
viduals, are incapable of wielding by
organization and discipline the power
ful influence of a united profession aim
ing at a high and honorable purpose.
Witness tho snail-like progress which
marked tho various steps In securing
our laws for elevating the standnrd of
requirements In medical education and
for medical practice. Witness the op
position to our efforts in securing
better sanitary regulations, and In the
struggle to protect tho public from the
horde of uneducated or misguided per
sons who under the guise of Christian
Science, osteopathy, and other schisms.
Insist upon being permitted to take
charge of and treat human beings suf
fering from disease without submitting
themselves to the state examination
legally required of us."
And his remedy was, first, a higher
standard of medical education, and
secondly, better organization. Dr. Wy
eth emphatically favored a revision of
the code of ethics, to bring It abreast
of the spirit of the times; and he cited
cases in which tho laws of the code and
the laws of the state conflict, arguing
that one or the other or both needs re
vision. The conclusion of his address included
an earnest appeal to the 120,000 regular
practitioners represented by the asso
ciation to do less doctoring and more
preventing disease; to be teachers
more than healers of men. Along this
latter line Dr. J. M. Emmort. of At
lantic, la., delivered a notable oration
in which he demanded general com
pulsory vaccination; the quarantining
of tubercular subjects, man and beast
alike; the establishment of tuberculosis
sanatoria; the ptohlbitlon of marriage
to blood relations up to the second de
gree, and to nil peisons of either sex
affected with either congenital or ac
quired specific or infectious disease,
such as venereal or pulmonary affec
tions, confirmed drunkards, criminals,
anarchists and degenerate classes; pub
lic baths, nnd the compulsory examin
ing but not licensing of immoial wo
men, those found infected to be sent to
detention hospitals.
things have' been criticized and some of
them have been accused, but whatever
tho sovcrencss of calumny, however
ready men at case here may bo to be
lieve, to repeat, to rejolca In accusa
tions ngalnst our brethren who nro
lighting under tho American flag In sup
port of American sovereignty away
upon the other side of tho world, lot me
tell you that tho president nnd tho sec
retary of war, nnd the officers, the pub
lle olllccis of our government at Wash
ington, have followed these soldiers of
ours, In reports and In private letters
nnd In telegraphic dispatches, and by
tho oral word of those who have re
turned during all their whole course of
conflict; have seen them there, often
afoot tramping through the Jungle, have
Been them ope by one dropping off,
murdered by tho treacherous foe; have
seen them fading from disease; have
seen them falling by shot and by sword;
have seen them courageous, patient, en
during, magnanimous, faithful, loyal al
ways to the highest standard of Ameri
can citizenship and wo give you our
words that these men shall not by the
public officers of the United States,
charged to do justice to them, be con
demned unheard.
Re of good cheer, American soldiers.
When the record comes to be made up,
In the cool Judgment of the American
people, and of mankind, after Cuba,
with its brilliant page, after China, with
its glorious achievements, will be writ
ten another page equally brilliant,
equally glorious, on which will be re
corded the achievements In wnr and in
pence of the American army In the
Philippines.
Professor Behrlng, a celebrated Ger
man bacteriologist, announces the dis
covery of an antl-toxlne serum which
by Inoculation renders mankind im
mune from tuberculosis. European sci
entific circles are reported to be greatly
exercised and well they may be; for if
proof follows assertion this will be the
most useful medical discovery of mod
ern times.
In 1901 we bought from our South
American neighbors goods to the value
of $110,000,000, but we only sold to them
$44,000,000, a difference against our
selves of $66,000,000. Nothing can com
pletely change this condition until wo
have sufficient regular lines of subsid
ized American steamships.

PURSUED A MANLY COURSE.
From tho Freo Press.
William Connell by his action endeared
himself to lovor3 of fair play. Recog
nizing the supremacy of Senator Quay in
tho state, no man worked harder for his
return to tho senate, ho yet refused to
break his woid and throw down John P.
Elkln after ho had pledged him his sup
port. Had ho dono anything Ise, had ho
pursued any other coutsc, 'his political
prestlgo in the state would have been
nullified. Politics, and tho men who play
the game, Indulge occasionally in peculiar
pranks, nnd It is not always easy for the
latter to so conduct themselves In deal
ing with the former that explanations are
unnecessary, but this Is true in William
Connell's case. To the unbiased, there
Is only one course open to tho congi ess
man from this district, and that is to try
to succeed himself.

The American Army.
(Secretary Root at West Point).
UR army, small ns it was, and
far across the sea, within a
few weeks of active military
operation captured the torti
fied'clty, took prisoner an army greater
in number thun itself and ended in a
single short campaign tho conflict with
the power which onco controlled almost
the whole of the western woild. Hav
ing accomplished that feat, the nuny
gave to the Island of Cuba what it had
won. It released the imprisoned; it
healed the sick; it cleaned the Jails; it
opened hospitals and asylums; it dotted
the country from one end to tho other
with schools; it gnthcied children from
the fields and roiests and towns and set
them In rows of bright and interested
faces with Bchool books before them; It
extirpated disease und saved more lives
than were lost in nil the wnr; It es
tablished the most wondeiful school of
government ever known on 'the face of
the earth, and for thice yeais has been
teaching the Cuban people how to gov
ern themselves, und ut last it has come
awny, leaving u huppy and ginteful
people.
Its clear-sighted courage made

A further evidence of the Americaniza
tion of Englnml Is recorded in tho dainty
volume, "A Pinch of Snuff," about to be
issued by Lewis, Scrlbncr & Co., of Now
York, In which It Is noted that tho costly
snuff-boxes which are to be a feature
of the coronation of King Edward will
be filled with American snuff If tho lim
ited supply uvallablo Is equal to tho de
mand. It seems that the king, who is al
ready a paymaster in tho gentle art of
snuff-taking, and whose example is reviv
ing its use In fashionable circles, has
discovered that the finest snuff In tho
world is produced in America, This snuff
Is mudo from a particular kind of perique
tobacco which is grown only in two
parishes of tho state of Louisiana. This
periquo snuff is practically unknown In
America, nil of It being taken by the
fashionable European trade. It Is sup
plied regularly to Pope Leo, King Ed
watd, Emperor William, tho Sultan of
Turkey and other crowned heads. As the
members of the court circles of Europe
are faithful Imitators of the throne the
Increase In tho fashionable use of snuff
will contribute directly to the prosperity
of at least one section of the United
States.
