 The Governor was down at his of flee early this morning. At 10 o'clock a committee of business men consisting of B. M- Behrends, John Reck, George F. Forrest, W. A. Clark, F.. c. Russell and John w.

I have been an ootimist always about Alaska. One cannot visit any section with out being impressed with the great potential possibilities of industrial expansion.
 "The present industries can be greatly increased, and new indus tries can te established. Many of bhe great stretches of wilderness along out coast sections and in the interior can be made as produc- tive and populous as the centers of population already established. and the latter, with trade expan- sion surrounding them, will also grow in population and importance
 Silk Worm Industry
 For instance" continued the Governor. "Alaskans have been so. bus" with big problems that many smaller and important industries have been overlooked, which is true of all new countries.
 "On my way across the Continent met some Japanese who informed me that the Alaska climate in sec tions of the coast is very similar to th- climate of Japan where the SIX work industry thriyes. They promised to send me literature and in ormatiOn about the industry from Yokohoma. Children and na- tives can easily engage in the busi- Il ess. and it can be carried on, l gnu informed, at very little cost.
