The Wealth. OF Alaska.

No one today we think will question
the wisdom and economy of the pur-
chase Of tho territory OF Alaska Tor d
matter Of 81 900, 900. Scientific exami-
nation makes reasonab BILE the prediction
that the yield Of gold from Alaskan
soil will reach $40, 900, 600 a year for /
many years to come. Nor IS this all.
The recent discovery Of Ignite and BIZ
luminous coal near the coast is likely to
develop source Of wealth even great
er than that Of the goldfelds. Similar
deposits occur along the Pacific coast
from southern Calf ifornia to British
Columbia, but these have been utilized
! to only a limited extent thus far, partly
because the coal is in some instances Of
an Inferior quality, partly because. the
facilities for reaching marketsare in
adequate and partly no doubt because
the requisite capital was not forthcom-
ing. For these reasons the coal output
Of California, Oregon and Washing gton5
has never been equal to the demand.
San Francisco has had in the past to
rely almost entirely upon Japan, Aus
tralia and England. The great devel-
opment Of the Pacific slope, together
with rapidly increasing steam com.
merce on the Pacific ocean, creates q
growing need for domestic supply Of,
good fuel, and the finding Of what.
seems to be an abundant supply Of coal
on Chignik bay is a matter Of great i'm.
Iportance to this section Of our country.

they extend has not yet been ascertain.
