 TIME" SERVICE WANTED

The Yukon territorial legislature has memorialized parliament for an all.the.mail.all-the-time service be- tween the Outside and Interior fu- kon points. The press and citizens of Dawson have long advocated such a service, and the continued agitation has resulted in frequent and gener- ous deliveries during the winter months as we'll as in the summer. The Dawsonites do not geC all of their mail during the winter, it is true, but what they do get reaches them regu- larly. frequently, and in generous doses. It is a service as Fairbanksans have never known, and never will know until proper steps are taken to apprise the department of the needs of the territory.
 There is no reason why the resi- dents of Interior Alaska should not receive all of their mail all of the time, instead of some of their mail some of the time. as is the case at present The chief trouble in the past has been that we have ben too timid in our de mands on Congress. We never kicked unless our mail supply was cut on altogether. and even in those cases it took us unnecessarily long to frame our complaints. Had we demanded an all.the-mail.all-the-time service years ago, we at least would have impressed the department with our importance and instead of sharing our meager al lowance with every new camp to spring up in the Interior. as we have done since the granting of the last contract. we very likely now would be getting a reasonably satisfactory service-Fairbanks Times.

Gold is the magnet that attracts seekers after wealth all over the world, and with the men it brings to new spot on the earth, there come, inevitably, others who are destined to become substantial citizens of the com munities that are sure to spring up.
 "The farmer first supplies the pla- cer gold miner with provisions; then the quartz men, and finally there is a fourishing community that demands his products. It is this way that great cities are built. So we see in the Northwest that railroads are neces- sary, if the communities that have re- suited from the placer gold seekers are to endure. The future of Alaska depends upon the railroads, aa did Cal. ifornia, Colorado, Montana, and Brit ish Columbia. It was placer gold that won Alaskan her first fame, The rail roads will bring her enduring fame"
