ALASKA AT THK
SAX PR AXCISCO PAIR
It is not too early for the people
of Alaska to begin Interesting them
selves in the matter of securing ex
hibits for the Panama Pacific In
ternational Exposition at San Fran
cisco in 1915. Congress has made
a blanket appropriation of $500,000
for a number of scientific and other
institutions and departments and
the three Territories of Alaska, Ha
waii and Porto Rico No allotments
of the fun have been made, r^r Will
these be made until the government
exhibit board, with headquarters in
Washington, has had time to outline
the extent of the exhibits that the
various exhibitors iutend or would
like to make. i
If the allotment that shall be
made to Alaska should not be deem
ed sufficient for the purpose effort
should be made to secure a« addi
tional appropriation from Congress
It will be a much more difficult mat
ter to 6ecur® the right kind of ex
hibits from Alaska than from the
other territories, because of the;
great exteal of this : Territory as I
compared with either Porto Rico or
Hawaii, and, therfreoe, Alaska's ap
propriation should be much more
liberal than the other*, land it un
doubtedly .will. The allotment made
for Alaska for the Alaska-Yukon
Pacific Exposition in 1D09, was
$100,000. The exhibits were credit
able to the Territory, but, it is sub
mitfed, that those for the San Fran
cisco exposition should be larger,
more varied and entirely typical of
the'flatural resources of the Terri
tory, and'its industrial and commer
cial progress. Alaska's mining de
velopments are attracting wide at
tention: its fisheries are extensive;
its timber resources are great; its
agricultural possibilities are being
recognized, and its- educational
progress Is a matter of pride. Many
other features of Interest cau be add
ed besides those of a strictly util
itarian character. The prime ob
ject will be to show Alaska's natu
! ral resources, together with the
progress being made along material
lines, and to delineate their extent
and richness to an inquiring world.
The totem poles, the Eskimos and
' the seals no longer represent Al
aska's leading industries.—Juneau
