between Alaska and the United States
in 1914, an increase of $4, 900, 900 over
1913. Our shipments to Alaska last
year, according to the bureau of for
eign and domestic commerce, Depart
ment of Commerce, aggregated $22,-
100000, including approximately $14,-
100000 worth of manufactures, $6,20O,-
600 worth of foodstuffs and $4,000, 900
worth of gold, silver and miscellaneous
materials, including foreign merchan-
disc valued at $500.0O0. AS market
for our products Alaska, having 4
population of only $4,000, is of equal
importance with China with a popu-
lation of 336,000,000.
Alaska's great purchasing power is
natural corollary of it's enormous
resources, mainly gold, copper fishery
products and hitherto undeveloped
beds of coal and other minerals. In
the period since 1867 Alaska has given
to the world $3.50, 100000 worth of
gold. $3.50, 100000 worth of fish, S65,-
000,0 worth of seal and other aquatic
fur skins, $40, 900, 900 worth of copper,
nearly $5.000,000 worth of whale, wal
rus and fish oils, $2,000,000 worth of
silver and whalebone, coal, gypsum
marble, tin and vegetables in sufficient
sums to bring her total output to more
than $500, 100000. This result has
been achieved with a sparse population
and an inadequate system of railway
and other transportation facilities.
With the new era of government rail-
way construction recently announced
by the Department of the Interior. the
development of Alaska will be greatly
accelerated. and that territory. which
already yields as much gold as the
State of California, which produces
half the worlds salmon. and which in
