TRIP TO ALAsKA-EyE OPENER

The Seattle Chamber of Commerce has started a letter campaign for the benefit boosting Alaska Daily this campaign is bringing activity Many of those writ Ing letters state they have been to Alaska they know the country we'll The following appeared in the Seat tle Times of recent date and explains Itself;
 Among those who have taken interest in the campaign is Thomas Martindale. of Philadelphia who has twice visited Alaska on hunting expeditions. Mir. Martndale has written to every member of the Pha- delphia delegation in Congress- in part. as follows;
 ~rhis territorial wonder until recently has had but poor help from Congress- In fact it has been har. assed in many ways in place of having been helped The last two Congresses, however made Q notably good start by deciding build new government rail road from Seward to Panama River which will enable to get to Fairbanks the metropolis of the Far North Now that real start has been made to do justice to this mighty territory hope you will do what you can to push the work along.
 "The administration has asked Congress to ap- propriate s1o45sOoO for government improvements in Alaska for this year.
 What little have seen of the Alaska territory confirms me in the belief that with the help of Con- gress and the government as noted above and with the transportation facilities as now projected finally com pleted wave of unexampled prosperity is bound to set in which will not only help Alaska itself but will have the reflex action of being helpful to the whole of the United States
 Since the purchase of the Territory in 1867. AL aska has given the nation grand total of s5sss55S7 and for this enormous the government has con rbuted only about s24OOoOoO in excess of the revenue collected in fortyseyen years.
 "It every member of Congress should spend say two or three months in the Territory and for himself what an untold wealth will be bound follow improve ments now In process of being carried out they would realize that to give Alaska her rights would in the end be productive of good to every state in the Union-"

 San Francisco Is to return to her former supremacy as the port from which the steamers for Nome and other Alaska ports direct leave during the open season. according to advices received from Seattle last night
 Plans now under consideration by the Pacific Coast Steamship Company indicate that San Francisco will not only get the steamer service each year to Nome and St. Michael, but regular salings and all summer to the Far North
 .washington's stringent prohibition law is said to be responsible for the premeditated change which will mean vast business for local shippers and the port and a return to the profitable times when San Francisco was the source of Alaska's supplies and workers"
