 The deep perfectly protected harbor presents an o1 long surface embracing forty square miles, upon which any ship that floats may sail n safety at any time ana which in appearance suggests nothing much as beau full inland lake.
 The mainland and shores of Resurrection supply am pie space and perfect topography for the building oi cy of whatever extent future needs develops and thls cr custance added to it's natural position as gateway to the interior and the freedom from ice at al seasons O the harbOr and adjacent waters lead the government to select this port as the terminal for the railroad The u limited coal and oil and mineral resources of Alaska W' flow through this port to enter the Of the world and in return will the supplies for distribution over a territory greater in extent than many state cOmbineo thus making the great port of the North Pacific or the NEW YORK OF ALASKA.
