i the preseat j>laus of Uk Alas
ka Bureau ol Commerce miae.-i^iixt,
a:.«ju. will be be scene this eeming
year of a celebration doe to at tract
the intention of the whole United
States.
The year 1S1T will be the fiftk*l
anniversary of the transfer of thi?
territory from Russia to the Uuitoc
S:;acs. This change of territory has
resulted in the extension of the Am
Ierican government to the most nor
thern limits ol th? North Americaji
continent. In view of this fact
ihi rajiid stride* whch we have
mode in mining, fishing, and farm
mt, «he Bureau will ewdemor to
get congress to appropriate money
fa sl semi-centennial celebration.
if carried to completion the plan
will call for the visiung, to every
city in Alaska, a committee ajv
jionjifd hy congress from the House
and Senate to participate in the
celebration.
The plan contemplates festivities
all Alaska towns on dites that
will not conflict, so as to allow par
uc;i>ati(w in every towji by the con
gress, on ai committee.
Ketchikan intends to hare a one
day exhibit showing her vast fish
ing industries. Juneau will have
a i wo days carnival showing her
mines and quartz.
Tht Skagway Commercial Club
has instructed its secretary to
write a farorable reply and state
that we will hold an exhibition of
f»ur horticultural products. If
this scheme is carried out it will
result in an educational tour of the
crtatsei value that will secure most
widespread publicity.
L>ime Fortune never issues free
passes all must pay who travel her
Ft'n r>e»ple appreciate the value
of health oiitil they have lost it
Few know the importance of build
ing li>r health and strength until
iu'irn ity forces this truth upon
them
THE VERY XEXT TIME!
The nex* time you require an el- i
ficS-rt laxative, try "PCROLA" I
Syrvr or Figs—Nature's remedy. It
is jleasant and agreeable to the |
taste, as well as being effective.
Its use will keep the bowels open
amd regular. Especially recommend
ed far women and children. Price
