Almost any town can find
something to brag about. A
:itizen of Valdez says: “Valdez
is fortunate inasmuch as there is
no big mine like other points in
the North, When a town is de~
pendent upon one big company
its growth is halted and there is
no chance for independent inia j
tivc. There are several mining
properties near Valdez that will
be developed next season, and
these pay rolls and the produc- j
tion should be a big help.”
The GaYdiner Company, of Se
attle, is contemplating the estab
lishment of quarters at Peters
burg for the peeling and packing
of shrimp, which are very abun
dant in tfie waters of that locali
ty. They want 40 or 50 peelers
to begin with and will pay them
seven cents per pound.
Alaska is the easiest country
in the world to gain prominence.
There are more “prominent” in
dividuals in this territory for the
size of the population than in any
other known portion of the habi
table globe. This leaves hope
#y til of us. Bear up.—Ex
change.
