Naturally, Governor Smith had no light to yesterday upon the story that he was determined to have Owen D. Young nominated for Governor. It is too early to admit it, even if it were true; and the probability is that the matter has not advanced beyond the status of a project. Mr. Young is not in this country, and sential point in the proposed nomination his attitude toward it. the mention of Mr. would be However, Young's name of |in conncetion with the Governorship is significant in more than a personal sense.

Recerd of Alaskan Literature. (Seattle Times.) Bibliography of Alaskan Literature, the Hon. James Wickersham, a work of inestimable value is presented to persons inter- ested in any way in either the annals or the activities of the Territory. The volume, of 635 pages, contains what is virtually a coniplete list of the titles of books and other publications per- taining to the history of the country, to travels and voyages in the northland and to newspapers, periodic: and public documents printed in and about the priceless possession. The exhaustive all records in the English but likewise all those in Russian, German, French, Spanish and other languages. Its period extends from 1724, the beginning of Muscovite rule, to 1924—200 years. Judge Wickersham was eminently qualified fo rthe task. Jarly in the present century he was a United States jurist in Alaska and then for several terms was the Territory’s Delegate to Congress. He began the compendium when he was in the House of Representatives, within easy reach of the wonderful resources of the Library of Congress. The Alaskan Legislature recognized the worth of the research and authorized its re- sults to be published by the Alaska Agricultural College and School of Mines, which is at Fair- banks. Information concerning Alaska may be scat- tered to the four corners of the earth, but Judge Wickersham has made the knowledge available by scheduling its diverse nature and naming its many authors. He has performed a fine service for both the casual inquirers and serious students, His achievement will redound greatly to the benefit of Alaska.
