SENATOR FOSTERS LETTER.
HE WRITES CONCERNING ALASKA
BOUNDARY QUESTION.
tOrial Convention At juneau
Says 1t Ii the Best Way In Which
TO Arouse Public Sentiment.

The text Of the letter which United
States Senator Addison G. Foster ad-
dressed TO the Alaska territorial conven-
ton, called for the purpose OF recommend
ing TO congress suitable legislation for the
territory. has been received in this city
In his letter Senator Foster speaks from
tho standpoint OF one who has been over
the ground. and who bases his opinions and
conclusions upon an actual and practical
knowledge OF the situation. He said in
part:
Commerce has grown and expanded in
Alaska in spite OF neglect and inattention
on the part OF the United States govern
ment.
But the time has come when our gov
ernment-sometinnss trifie slow, but al
ways sure-shouid recognize more fully the
needs and demands Of Alaska. Alaska Is
gold, or silver. or timber and the like. and
only mentioning fish, Alaska /. rich. And
yet one mine has produced more gold than
would pay for the original cost Of the whole
lected to plant few lighthouses there to
protect hundreds Of vessels that navigate
the most remarkable stretch of coast line
In the werid.
The torch Of education should and will
come with the beacon for the faithful nav
igators OF Alaskan waters. l have had the
pleasure, | am glad TO say To you. Of hay
irg Endorsed and approved of several i'm
Southeastern Alaska since returning from
my visit there. The people should not bs
denied educational facilities and should not
be hampered by being forced to so to great
expense and tina temporary loss OF their
children by sending them away to school
Nowhere IN the United States do we need
capable educators as much as we do In
Alaska.
During my recent visit TO WASHINGTON
city ! am glad to report that found ev-
erybody, from President Mckinley down
evinclng much interest in Alaska Indeed
without fear OF being the first TO tell II, I
found everybody somewhat interested not
so much in locating rich claims as IN To-
eating and mailing down the boundary
'On this very important question-all-im-
portant question. may say-of the bound
airy the Alaska people should not fail 10
take advantage OF every favorable oppor-
tunity TO express their views. In fact |
Know OF no better means of driving the i'm
portance of this question home to the
minds Of the people OF the United States
than by a series OF meetings called for the
purpose of bringing out an expression of
sentiment, starting in Alaska and eN-
tending down the Pacific coast and thus
reaching the great body Of the American
people"
