The future Of Alaska depends upon the develop nent of her mines That statement is go selfevdent that t requires no argument in its support Ihe Territory has developed to her present commercial importance through her mines. That IS the industry
 which has given her population. That is the industry that will give her farms and permanent fishing settle
 ents because the farms and fishing settlements come
 with the population that gives them local markets and barking and commercial facilities. These gre grad ualy domcning great deal Of the fishing industry in Alaska and with their further development more Of it will become permanently located here
 Therefore. Alaska must every endeayor to encourage mining development. and the surest way 10 do that is to induce the renyestment Of Alaska mining profits in Alaska. That should not be diff cult because the resources are here. and We have mining eAperts who capable Of working cut the . problems tAat their development involve
 While gold and copper will probably continue to be Aaska greatest mineral products the demand for other metals is causing fortunate movement in search of them The prospect that Alaska will one of these days develop iron and tin in quantities and in locations that will permit Of their working at profit is favorable to say the least. Nothing could contribute more 70 the greatness of Alaska and the economic welfare of the Pacific coast than the dis coyery and development of iron deposits The demand for iron and steel in all its forms on the Pacific coast is becoming immense. With iron mines will come steel works and tin mills the Pacific coast to sup ply this growing demand and shlpbulding. machinery manufacturing and all the other allied industries will follow.
 With a disposition thoroughly manifested to en- courage mining in every way possible. the reinyest ment Of money made in Alaska mines will come quick iy The people the Territory may encourage mines in many ways. Taxes should be limited to the needs oi government economically and efficiently admins tered There should be experimental stations. where prospectors could learn all about the various metals where they may be expected to occur. something Of their treatment etc Law and order and should be made habitual characteristics Of the Territory. There should be harmony and unity of purpose and endeayor The community spirit should be encouraged and more thought and words and action should be devoted to remedies and suggestions than to carping criticism and destructive aconal feuds The spirit oi progress and cooperation and the habit of looking ward to new things should become dominant
 Alaska has a great future. but great deal or work be done before the greatness can be real ized There is enough Of 1t to do to keep all who are here and all who may occupied every work ing day for many years and the returns for honest work and honest effort will amply compensate for the effort IT all will put their shoulders the wheel and push and boost wonders will be worked and the re. ward in happiness and prosperity will be abundant

GOOD ROADS IN SIGHT

Of almost equal importance to Interior Alaska as the building of the government railroad is the promise of better roads in the near future that is given as a result of Colonel Richardson's successful that is now available there is good to expect that the Valdez trail will be improved that auto mobiles will have little trouble in negotiating the entire distance except under the most mfayorable conditions. and that at least day will be cut from the time at present taken between Fairbanks and Chitina. Colonel Richardson has had to work under a very material handicap for the past six or seven years. as the appropriations have been so small as to render the doing of the work the trail economically almost impossible. With the larger amount at his disposal this year and the work at this end in the hands of the present capable super intendent t may be expected that the road will be put in far better shape than before The Colonel has always shown a friendness for Fairbanks and the Commercial Club Is to be commended for taking steps to show its appreciation of his well directed efforts on behalf of the community

 In view of the fact that home grown potatoes are now quite generally used throughout Interior Alaska to the exclusion of the Outside product the request of the Fairbanks Commercial club that native spuds be supplied the soldiers by the government is in every way reasonable It has been demonstrated that potatoes of good quality be grown in this country and their general in every quarter should be encouraged. Every dollar spent among our far mers means increased development and adds just that much to the general prosperity Of the district in which the money is circulated.
 The government imports several hundred bushels of potatoes every year for distribution among the various military posts and signal corps stations the total purchases for single season representing a considerable sum- And not dollar of the money thus spent is of benefit Alaska.
