Gov. Scott c. Bone is doing mis- sionary work on his present trip in the East, if copies of various news papers received in Juneau in the last mail are any criterion. The Washington, D. C., Herald, of Feb ruary s, contains the following ar ticle, which is specimen of the publicity Governor Bone is ably giv- ing the Territory:
 The Territory of Alaska, bought from Russia for $7 100000, has enough undeveloped natural wealth available to pay the national debt of $24,000, 100000, Scott c. Bone, Gov ernor of Alaska, and former Wash dngton newspaper editor, told the City Clubs luncheon forum yesterday
 Transportation and a centralized, bureaucratic government are the two great needs today of this rich territory, nearly onef;fth as large as the United States" Governor Bone told the audience. But today-in spite of the fact that Alaska has lost population in the last 10 years-the prospects for this Territory are brighter than ever before. In the first place, the President, Secretary Fall and the administration generally are committed to it's development; ], and in the second place, the first railroad has been completed.
 Railway Cuts Living Cost
 ''This railroad. running 800 miles directly north from Seward, on the Southern coast, to Fairbanks, in Cen tral Alaska, is now operating two trains week between Seward and Fairbanks and has already cut the cost of necessities in Fairbanks by 50 per cent and will continue to cut them even more.
 Although this railroad cost the government approxima tely $56.000. 900, I confidently predict that it will yield as great return to the government as has the original purchase of the Territory. It's construction was a monumental work, and the credit for it belongs to Col. Frederick Mears, an unassuming army engineer.
 '4It was common belief in the past, and I must admit that I shared 1t also, that the government could not do such work and do it well. But want to say that this has been dis proved in this job. The railroad has been built, without politics; built we'll as a big business proposition md without waste or graft. It is the ,otN6anding event in she history of 0asks since America purchased that nhwlfoey = years ago.
