 The President of the United States hoped to be here on this not able occasion. It was included in his tentative arrangements. He looked forward expectantly to the pleasure and profit of visiting Alaska. Par ticularly did he wish to see this great open country of the Interior. The thriving homesteads and ex- panse of growing wheat would have inspired him. He would have seen here. in this fertile land watered by the Tanana and Yukon, the Miss issippi Valley of Alaska. He would have grasped the full meaning to the Territory of the Government enter prise, the Alaska Railroad for which as senator. he voted, in opening the mineral, coal and farming lands along the way He would have found and applauded the pioneer spirit at its best and recognized in all Alaska a habitable and inviting land.
