 It is no doubt that the people who come to the new Alaska town are actuated chiefly by de sire to make money The composite . mass @ wnirn ea divided into two classes-those who hope to make money, and stay, and those who hope to make money and go. As between these two classes or residents it is not difficult determine which class will be of permanent benefit to the country
 The primary prerequisite for the development ana growth of new region is that the people who come shall be inspired with faith in the future or tne there are possibilities in the country, which when exploited will spell that there are resources which, when developed, will bring financial benefit to those who invest. It is necessary that at least some of the money which the country has been kind enough to put into the pockets of the people, shall be put back the country-broadly speaking, that the desire to make money shall not be confined en- tirey to making it of other person. but shall take the broader and constructive form of a desire to make money out of the opportunities ana resources which lie unexploed and undeveloped in every section of Alaska that has justified 1nvestga- tion.
 citizen who does not look upon this section of Alaska from this viewpoint is worth little to the community. He is in the nature of parasite, who contributes nothing and acquires everything
 town which is composed of this class of citi, zens will expire as soon the last number is punched ticket and this has particular reference to Anchorage If this town is to amount to any thing it must develop the forward-ooking citizen, and by meant, the citizen whose forward vision is fixed Seattle Washington, D.

He is the citizen who will count in the end His alone will appear in the census of the future.
 And this is what by Alaska for Alas kans and the fellow who tells that he does not believe in this axiom of progress, you immed- lately place in the class of those forward-lookne citizens whose gaze penetrates beyond the azure of Alaska skies and is fixed the rainbow tints in the distance.
 No town ever built doubt and uncertainty; pessimism is the highway robber of future success Courage and confidence in what you see, what you feel and what you believe to be true has had more to do with the constructive enterprises of than all the words of doubt recorded in history. This is the spirit that has built Seattle and San Francisco. The Seattle Spirt is but another expression of the plan of everyone putting shoulder to the wheel and pushing for the common good, land the Seattle Spirit (with the help of Aaska) built Seattle.
 It also follows that the slogan Alaska for Alas kans,' properly applied, will build Alaska
