WELL SAID
Alaska Is the Young Mans
 Opportunity
Juneau Transcript,)


 It is simply one mans opinion, but after being all over Alaska and know ing full well its vast territory and won- deriul latent resources do you know what we would do if we were going to "boost for Alaska?" We would adopt the best plan possible to induce all young, enterprising men to come to this great northern country and ''grow up with it."
 There certainly is no country in the world where the opportunities are 50 great for individual effort as they are here. Alaska is little world within itself. Neither the conventionalities of society or the handicsPs of corpora tiOn rule interfere with the full eXer- else of the individuality of the young, energetic fellow who wishes to rise by his own effort and will-power. True he can go to the demnition bOw-wows II he chooses equally as we'll as he can in any country on earth, for the re- stratnts are few, yet the temptations are not so great as in the big cities of the states.
 But this much can be said; whatever is IN young man who comes to oAlaska, be it good or bad, has a wonderful op- portuuity to expand and grow. Alaska is the young mans opportunity to show what's iu him.

pleasure OF meeting Dir. Weir and IN
the lallef conversation found him to

man. and the coming of this dis

means we believe a stronger era in
the advancement of that inst tuition
on higher educational lines, in that
an opening will be offered to more
advanced educators for d bro idening
of their work for higher attalnments
Aside from the regular normal
courses of the university DR.. Weil

conduct advanced curses for more
mature students WHO wish to lit

the city council was held Monday
evening in the council rooms in the

year, the council not caring to take
any action on what previous councils
might have or might not have done.
The Mitchell Gas Co. also had in AZ
bill for $3.50 for diggins $40 feet OF

ing that they were instructed to fol-
low what was supposed to be a street
on the south side, but afterwards
discovered to be private property.

a report was made oil the condi-
tion Of the water trough on tile south
side. which is reported to have been
broken down on account Of people
backing up against it with wagons in
hauling water away. an act which
the council does not think is the
right thing. Alderman Hannett re-
ported on some changes and additions
that were ordered made in the li-
brary decorations. a resolution was
introduced ordering the clearing OF
the buildings that occupy a portion
of the street on the west end Of
Railroad Avenue.
Alderman Wells, chairman of tho
fire committee, made a report con-
corning the construction of build
ing that would be large enough to
hold the two hose carts, the hook
and ladder wagon, and TO store other
material belonging to the city. The
FIRE committee was instructed to se-
cure plans and specifications Of such
a building and present them at tile

Lest our citizens might vonde.
why a man Of such ability and train
ing should be willing to come to a
new state like South Dakota, we may
say that the board OF justices Of Da-
kota Wesleyan authorized the pay
ment of a salary sufficient to secuIe
such a man, because they believe
that this great new state should
have its foundations laid by the best
talent in the country, because they
recognize the liberal provision made
for the public schools, and because
we have tile foundations of one Of the
greatest educational systems in the
west. The matter was gone over with
care, and President Nicholson has
canvassed it with leading educators
of the country curing the past year.
Had not DR.. Weir been seculed, an
other man of something like equal
ability would have been sought. His
coming is simply IN line with the pol
icy that the hest only is permanently
profitable. The public may rest as
s,lred that there are no 'unSpoken
