great exposition will corrective of the many inn ressions existing regarding the territory People will learn that instead of being wilderness of perpetual Alaska has many thousands of square miles of land suitable for agriculture and sockrasng; that the climate which had been represented to them almost beyond the powers of human endurance is superior to that which prevails in the northwestern states and that the people nhabtng the territory and much the as they them selves But that is not all They will also learn that Alaska is the last great land of opporunitythe place to which they go and without sacrificing their American citizenship find opportunities for advancing their individual interests such awaited their fathers in the early days of the West.
 With million dollars in hand, and with capable and energetic commissioner the good that will result from establishment of Alaskan section cannot be estimated The territOrys mineral wealth alone will sufficient to attract abundant capital while and exhibition of the country agricultural products will attract the farmer and sock-raser.

THE iNNUkO MAIL SERVICE

The matter of improved postal facilities for outlying camps n Interior Alaska is which might we'll be taken mp by the Alaskan legislature at its inaugural session. as present neglect of this important question is the of much hardship and inconvenience many deserving com munities
 Take, for example, the Ophir district Throughout the past summer the people of Ophir have received single consignment of mail and during the coming winter the service will be but month. Such state of affairs ished for five years and constitute permanent settlement with every indication of healthy growth in the near future Every year there is steady output of gold and the tota production since the discovery be less than million dollars Surely these people who spend their lives blazing the ralls and opening up the country entitled consideration at the hands of the postal department than they receiving. Surely these American citizens have right to expect that matter addressed to them and mailed ill good faith will be delivered and that without outrageous delay
 In the specific case of the Ophr district the question of expense, solaton should have bearing on the matter. Many postal districts in the United States are al have weekly mail service. Some mail routes out in the states do not paybut the people along those routes are not on that account deprived of mail facilities It is u destOod that such facilities among the prime necessities 0f civilized life. Are those isolated communities ill the states more progressive intelligent than ours Vel know they are not. Why then pioneer comnun- ties discrmnated agains Because they have voice in congressthey have but delegate who is voeess and com paratiyely poWerless
 The only hope for beterment seems to rest with the Alaskan legislature If the for these isolated com mnites be properly presented the legislature certainly take steps to remedy the evil The postal deparnent might ignore appeal for redress coming from voteess delegate they must heed the recommendations of united legislature.

most of the people will remain in the

An automobile path between Edmore,

same place; who were in Devils Lake
comforting with the people of this city
yesterday on the matter.
The perfect road idea which the Ed
more citizens have in mind could be
constructed and no great outlay of
money would be needed and the people
at the Edmore end are willing to stand
their apportioned share of the expense,
providing they can secure the co-opera.
ton Of Devils Lake to help them in the
project.
The gentlemen found that their prop
osition met with favor and that the
plan of road building as suggested,
making direct auto path to Edmore
will be carried out.

The Gram Construction company was
the successful bidder before the county
commissioners yesterday afternoon, sue
ceeding in securing the contract for the
construction of the new vault which
will be erected at cost of about $1,000
and fitted with steel fixtures. The con.
tract for the vault furnishings was let
to Walker Bros. 6 Hardy Of Fargo.
With the additional vault room and
the safe keeping Of county records the
necessity Of the erection Of a new court
house has been done away with at q
great saving to the county, and the
foresightedness Of the commissioners
in this respect is indeed to be commend
ed.
The contract for furnishing supplies
to the county was let to G. J. B. Turn
er, his bid being one per cent bette,
than that Of the Journal Publishing
company.
Aside from the awarding Of the con
tracts the Commissioners found little
pressing and adjourned last evening a,

which is acclimated to this country
and which is paying crop. Corn that
has been tried and found to be durable.
There are at present only two or
three silos in this county but this year

realize that summer fallowed land will
be better if crop of corn is grown on

This corn can be cut and placed in a
silo where it will be kept green and
fresh until the time comes to feed it to
