ALLEN, Teat ud Commercial Street V ' ASTORIA, OREGON The report of th commission appointed for the purpose of investigating conditions In Alaska, that beneficial legislation might be enacted, has the fol lowing to say about Ute climates of the north: ; It should also be remembered that Alaska has two distinct climates. From southern Alaska, following the southern coast of Alaska proper to the Aleutian Islands It Is exceedingly rainy. This portion is warmed by th Jonaness cur rent, which, flowing northwardly along the coast Of Japan, la deflected t the east and reaches th coast of America along the southern eossr ot AMkai car rying with U and distributing a part of the heat which It received at the equa tor, and thus malWtolly modifying the climate of that part of Alaska. Ttl fringe of Aleutian Islands along the southern coast of Alaaka and a strip of ths mainland extending perhaps twenty miles back from the sea, form a distinctively climatic division which may be termed temperate Alaaka. Here the temperature rarely fall, very much below aero. At Sitka the mean temper ature la reported at 12. S deg. Par., and It 1 said not to vary more than ii A" degrees winter and summer. The rain and snowfall Is excessive, the latt rhav Ing amounted to 87 feet at Valdes In the winter ot 1892-93. The conditions north of the Aleutian Islands and the coast range are en tirely different. It Is stated by Judgs Wlckersbara, who has given much at tentlon to th matter that: TheTukon Interior Is lo wand flat. The Tukon river, where it crosses the British boundary tin at Eagle City, Is but 800 feet above the see, level, though nearly 1800 miles from Its mouth. The rainfall In this Vast region, from the Behrlng sea to the British boundary line, from the Arctic ocean to the Inland slope of St. Ellas range. Is not more than 12 Inches per annum. little more than falls In the parched mesas of Arlsona. A foot of rain and snow falls on the southern coast for every Inch In the Interior." Here ar found the extremes of climate. The winters are dry but cold, the thermometer often reaching a point 60 and 70 degrees below sero. On the other hand, the summers ar warm and pleasant. This whole val ley la rroten to great depth, ranging, tt is said, from 40 to 100 feet; but with the advent of summer with Its hot sun, which rises about 1: SO o'clock In the morning and sets at 10:10 p. m., thus giving about 20 hours of day light, the surface thaws to a depth of from two to four feet. The subterranean cold starage furnishes the necessary moisture to plant root and here grow wild and nutritious grasses, and In the few garden along the Tukon are found growing all the hardy vegetable, including potatoes, also currants, raspberries and sal mon berries, San Francisco, Jan.
