oKACWAY AS AN OUTFITTING
CENTER
Willi the tremendous Yukon Ter
ritory lying back of us and all
of tl:-it mining activity just in It:
infamy, but now beginning to bios
.-I, ;n torth from its bud, giving
~ ot enormous possibilities foi
i . ucrrial life, why should not
Sk become famed as the out
lining crater for the interior.
11 is curious to note that the
gent-raj opinion amongst mining
iucu i* that while this is the logi
cal center to serve us an outfitting
pes' yet they find that they can be
t>:!ti:([cd at Dawson just as cheap,
if these representations be true
then sVigway commercial men are
i-v*. :•! m king a commercial plum that
is b'iue cultured at other poin's.
iVrt.uuly local merchants should
.• iit a position to compete with in
terior towns in the furnishing of
; r,<,iiHs for the interior.
OUR MISSION

co-npt rate with the government
Office in the distribution

It is when she has to use an ordinary type

before. She is anxious to return to her "Silent
