JUNEAU TO BE
 GREATEST GOLD CAMP

Marshall Bond, mining engineer who arrived on the Admiral Evans is en- thusiastic over Alaska in general and Juneau and Seward in particular.
 In stating his opinion of conditions today. Bond said: "I have been in Seward forty.eight hours, and what knowledge I have of the costal region of Alaska is only such as could be picked up at the ports we touched at on the way up. But l will say that the impressions thus gained make me an unqualified optimist on the future of Alaska. I can see it in no other way. I base this feeling of optimism on the wonderful future of Juneau.
 oTt seems to me that the Juneau dis trict is destined to be the greatest gold camp in the world. If this opin' ion proves true Alaska will make It's appeal to capital for its development on fact, and not hope or suppositton. Seward Gateway.

SENATOR RIDDEN WRITES
 JUNEAU BAND BOYS

Senator Henry Roden of Iditarod, writing to the Juneau band boys from Iditarod under date of June 2, de- clares that he is still determined to make the trip to San Francisco with the band and take in the big show. The letter contains an account of his trip from the coast into the interior and discloses that he arrived in ldit. arod several days before June l.
 The following excerpts are taken from the epistle: During my trip often thought of you and about our proposed trip to San Francesca. As for me l am just as determined to make that trip as anybody else ever was and 1 hope that you are doing your share to prepare for it. I feel quite confident that we can make the riffle all right enough. The main thing depends on you. l am going to hang around here until early in the fall and l may show up in Juneau most any time after that. Of course we have still plenty of time left for preparation but hope that you are practicing faithfully.
 "On my arrival here l found a let ter from Conrad Breeding, formerly of Nome, in which he stated that he has purchased an interest in the Barker Hotel at Seattle and he adds that If we are all going to the fair together that we may stop at his place. He in- vites us. We ought to be able to rus tie all along the line. We can walk hack if the worst comes to the worst. Coming over here from Cooks Inlet has given me much practical eXper' fence. All one has to do in order to get from one place to another is to put one foot in front of the other and keep that up till he reaches his destin' atlon. I think 1t will be up to you to secure the musicians we need.
 q will shortly write to our old friend, Col. Willard, and see If he still feels the way he did some time ago. I think We have a right to expect some assistance from Nome and other places. Our transportation should cost us next to nothing. l hope you will be able to secure sets of uniforms, and while, and don't fall off the water ought to have at least that much any how. But the main thing is practice practice, practice till we will be able to make the best showing.
 Let me hear from you once in a while and don't fall of the water wagon; don't fall off the water wagon
