EDITORIAL PAGE
BUSINESS MEN ARE
AFTER ALASKA TRADE
From late telegraphic advices
received from the outside it appears
that the business meu In the Pacif
ic coast cities, especially in Portland
Oregon, that have heretofore view
ed with complacency the usurpation
of Alaska trade by Seattle are now.
in view of the widi publicity which
is being given the territory and its
resources by the federal govern
ment and the almost certainty of th
appropriation by congress of large
sums for its early development,
awakening to the fact that they hav
been overlooking for years the op
portunity of establishing commercial
relations with a section of the Unit
ed States that is destined short'y
to astound the world with the var
iety and immensity of its produc
tions.
The fabulous richness of the aur
iferous deposits that have for the
past two decades poured their
streams of gold into tha channels
of trade, the fisheries business that
has furnished a large proportion of
the world's supply and the fur in
dustry that lias flourished in Al
aska for over one hundred years,
and been the source of untold
wealth to the concerns which monop
olized it, are matters of general
knowledge.
Of the resources of the terri
tory other than these, which will
in time rival, if not surpass them,
in value, but little is knowu and
even less said. The innumerable
fertile valleys throughout the terri
tory that are adapted to the propa
gation and growth of cereals, all
the hardier vegetable and hay;
where the shortness of the summer
season is amply compensated for
by the extreme length of the days,
and where the temperature In win
ter. although cold, is far pref
able to that experienced in many
of the middle western states, are
things that have never been brought
to the notice of the people.
Across the coast range on the
interior th.^re are thousands upon
thousands of square miles of coun
try that is ideal for the raising of
stock; a country of low, rolling
hills, intersected with mountain
ranges, covered with unlimited quau
tities of nutritious bunch grass that
attains a growth of from 12 to 18
inches and which in the more favor
ed spots has such a stand It is sus
ceptible of being cut for hay; a
country that Is heavily wooded, with
no underbrush or fallen timber to
speak of except in the river bot
toms, and where rivers, creeks and
rivulets of pure, sparkling water,
are to be encountered within short
distances of each other, and where
the climate is the most invigorating
and healthful that can be found up
on the footstool.
In these vast interior reaches
there are also wide and fertile
valleys where the alluvial soil will
at some time be placed under culti
vation and provide a means of live
lihood for thousands of thrifty and
industrious people.
Cranberries, huckleberries, blue
berries. and in some places, straw
berries, are native to the soil and
flourish in the warm summer sun in
every part of the territory and ev
en alongside the cold and forbidding
glaciers the bushes and vines grow
in luxuriance and mature their frul'J
in perfection. Domestic raspberries,
blackberries and strawberries have
also been planted by many people
living iu the coast towns and are
now in full bearing and producing a;
prolificly as do the same varieties
in other and supposedly more favor
ed localities.
The above are only a few of the
many aveuues of industry that tlie
opening up of the territory will
make possible. The field of oppor
tunity in the north is as limitless as
are the vast expanses of its terri
tory.

knew that their wants would be at
tended to with dispatch. Mr. Moore j
manager of the New Idea Bakery, j
announces that all orders coming i
from outside points will receivc j
his personal and careful attention
and that same will be shipped via

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
J by local applications, as they cannot j
I reach the diseased portion c.f the ear
'There is only one way to cure deaf-'
I ness, and that is by constitutional1
remedies. Deafness is caused by a:: f
inflamed condition of the Eustachia ]
Tube. When this tube is Inflamed
vou have a rumbling sound of impei
f*«.t hearing, and when it Is entirely
closed, deafness Is the result, and u
less the inflamtion can b e take:i i
out and this tube restored to its nor
mal condition, hearing will be de
stroyed forever; nine cases out of tea
are caused by Catarrh, which is notli j
lug but an Inflamed condition of th» j
mucous surfaces.
We will gire One Hundred Dollars ;
for any case of -deafness (caused by
Catarrh) that cannot be cured by \
Hall's Catarrh Cure. Sena for cir j
sulars, free.
