 CITY IN WEST
O

Juneau today presents the live Hest appearance of any city on the Pacific Coast" said George w. Hib- bard, general passenger agent fo the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul rail way, who is a visitet- in this city to- day. Its future is asured by the won derful mining development in it's inn mediate vicinity, and by the fact that it is the gateway city of Alaska, which is certain to begin a development that will surpass anything the country has seen in the way of quick growth as soon as the necessary legislation for the opening of the marvellous resourc- es of the country can be enacted"
 Mir. Hubbard, accompanied by A. E. Harris, travelling passenger agent of the same company arrived on the City of Seattle. They are looking Al aska over in the interest of their com pany. and preparing themselves so that they will be able to talk Alaska as it is to the people making inquiries through their railroad company. They will depart on the Jefferson for Skag- way and Haines, and from there they will leave for the Westward where they will visit Cordova, Valdez and Seward. From there Mir. Hubbard will return to Seattle, but Mir. Harris will come to Juneau again and spend sev- eral months in Alaska.
 While our Western headquarters are in Seattle" said Mir Hubbard, i've of the Chicago, Milwaukee and St Paul look upon Alaska with favor equal to that which We feel for any of our contributing territory We are ex- pecting great things to come from the development of Alaska, and We desire to participate in the greatness, and to contribute our share toward bringing it about"
 This is Mir. Hibbard's first trip to Alaska. Mir. Harris, who is with him is an old time Alaskan. He spent sev- eral years in Alaska and at Dawson a decade ago when the Klondike excite ment was the center of all things Northern.

LITTLE ROOM
ON VENTURA

When the Oceanic liner Ventura
steamed through Sydney Heads for
San Francisco on last Saturday,
there was mighty little room left for
additional passengers, that might
book by this popular vessel from Ho-
nolulu for San Francisco. ta
Passenger Agent Gilmore of the
Oceanic line in this city has received
a cable in effect that the Ventura
should arrive here on or about April
18th with but accommodation for fifty
additional first class passengers,
A very large consignment of Aus
tralian refrigerated beef and mutton
is enroute to the islands in this YES
sci. The meat is consigned to the
local quartermaster department.
/. The Ventura is expected will be
dispatched for San Francisco about
seven o'clock in the evening of the
date of arrival. At least one hun
dred passengers have been booked for
the coast, which would indicate that
some one is destined to disappoint-
ment. e...-
