Sc Til Mann FINDS
alaska SMILING
At 86 DEGREES
Sunshine and Grassy Valleys,
Growing Hay, Grain and
Vegetables, Dispel It's
Bleak Reputation

Alaska may bear the reputation OF
an ice covered and snowbound land,
but to Seth Mann, attorney for the
traflc bureau OF the San Francisco
Chamber OF Commerce, who recently
made an 5000 mile trip through the
territory as the special representative
of President Wilson, it appeared as
warm. even hot country, where the
thermometer reached Sc degrees DAY
after day, and where vegetables, hay
and grain are raised.
Furthermore, 1t is a district where
San Francisco firms and San Francisco
goods would be welcome. according to
Mr. Mann.
II saw some tea, coffee and spices
from this city," he said yesterday, but
not much else from here. i think they
would be glad to make the acquaintance
of San Francisco merchants and mer-
chandise. The fact that there Is no
direct line of steamers from this state
to the far north is undoubtedly
great reason why California goods are
not well known
Without disclosing the real object OF
his visit or the nature of the report
he will make to the president, Mr..
Mann discussed Alaskan agricultural
and commercial conditions, comment
ing particularly on the raising OF vege-
tables. which mature rapidly under the
almost continuous summer sunshine
Barley and oat hay sells in Fairbanks
at 800 to $125 a ton, but as yet the
farms which raise 1t are not numerous.
One comparatively unknown possi-
bility OF Alaska is its development as
q cattle country, according to Mr.
Mann, who says that there is sur
prising extent of grass land In many
of the interior valleys and also on
the border of the Bering sea and the
islands offshore. Here grass Is to be
found two feet high in a foggy and
rainy country which does not get cold
er, he says, than northern Minnesota.
Mr. Mann found the interior valleys
green and covered with sparse timber
which could be cleared easily for. farm
ing land New gold discoveries In the
Shushana and Ruby City districts have
revived interest In mining. he said, al
though the population of every Alaskan
city, except Juneau, has fallen off In
the last few years. The building of a
railroad from Valdez. Seward or Cor
dova inland to Fairbanks. a distance
of 400 or 500 nstles, is expected to rem
edy this in part.
"A new and interesting feature of
the coal situation" stated Mr.. Mann,

pertinent will be availabl by the end

Hopeful of Future of

Clergyman Thinks Result
Will Be United States
of Europe"

After more than years absence
from San Francisco. during which time
he Travelled through all parts of the
Balkans as volunteer nurse and
chaplain, Father Sebastian Dabovich,
head of the Servian orthodox churches
in the United States, is spending few
days in this city with friends, but viii
leave shortly for New York.
Prior to 1906 Father Dabovich was
connected with the Russian Catholic
church in San Francisco.
The outcome of the present fighting
in the Balkans will be the formation of
a confederacy including Servia, Greece.
Bulgaria, Roumania and Montenegro.
said Father Dabovich last night. This
confederacy will eventually become the
United States of Europe. II will be the
culmina ton of a century of hope, par
ticularly on the part of the Serbs.
The country was fast settling down
when I left eight weeks ago. On the
ashes are being builded new homes and
cities and a greater nation will be the
ultimate result
Nicholas Pasich, prime minister of
Servia. is great man; in fact, a genius.
1t was his brain that conceived the
Balkan confederacy, and all his efforts
are centered on perpetuating the idea.
Tho allied armies fought under
great physical obstacles and lost very
heavily When I left Belgrade new
army was being drafted OF the youths
of the country ranging from is years
upward.
Conditions there now are very
hopeful Bulgaria is being punished,
but I believe eventually will come into
the confederacy and help to strengthen

Temperate Humanity,

stopped at a restaurant where he de-
livered beer and prepared to water
his horses. He had filled a pail from
the street hydrant and was about to
offer it to the near horse when the
command Put that down caused
him to drop the bucket with a splash.
Then a woman plunged a thermome-
ter into the water.
TOO cold by several degrees" she
said. Get pail of hot water from
the restaurant"
The driver mumbled what for?"
but he was awed by the woman's
commanding manner and he fetched
the hot water as directed.
Now" she said pour some of
that cold water out and pour hot wa
ter into the pail until it registers
about 81 degrees, Then water your
horses. 1t is cruel 20 make a horse
drink water colder than that, and ev-
