NOME. ALASKA. JANUARY 16. 1915
THE TOURIST TRADE.
There will be many tourists ec me to
the Pacific coast this summer and
many of these will come to Alaska and1
the question is, are we going to do any
thing to get the benefit of this travel in
Nome*; It may he a ked what we have
in offer whieh will prove attractive to
the tourists.' This question might he
answered by asking what has ati\ place
to offer except those things which
satisfies the cravings of a people who
travel to see and learn and enjoy
themselves. Tourists generally seek
for the interesting scenes which are
new to their experiences and start out
With a purpose of boxing a good time
which is ustiallx had under conditions
whieh causes thus**among whom they
come some astonishment of how little
i' requires t" please the average
sightseer This is been use he is carry
ing out a purpose and is a close ob
server and is attracted and interested
in many things whieh is new to his
experiences and places him in different
environments from those xvith which
he has been surrounded for years and
the change is most relaxing and pleas
ing and sees much that is new and In
teresting which to the local community
is old, common place and uninteresting.
We forget, perhaps, our first trip to
Nome, from the great outside and the
interest we took In the new scenes
conditions and habits and customs and
the bustle and stir of the most north |
ern and active* mining comp in the '
world We have forgotten the interest j
we took in the natives and all theit i
peculiarities, customs, habits of life
their curios of Ivory and furs, their
wonderful skin, boats and their dances
games and their peculiarities which
not only are of interest but in them
selves a source of pleasure and in
struction to the intelligent tourist who
travels that he may not only enjoy
himself hut seeks to broaden his field
of knowledge of places, thing* and
people.
Mining which is at this time of year
will he most active will furnish a most
interesting field for tin* tourist to most
of whom the most simple process of
mining for gold would he new and of
intense Interest. Nome has been closely
identified with all that has made the
i Northland Interesting to the outside
; world Its situation and Its rich mines
has made the town and its surrounding
a matter "f interest to all who have
heard of U.iska anti Nome Itself would
attract tourists if conditions were
favorable for including it in the tourists
circuit.
There is so much to attract tho
tourists to Nome that it will he only
tlie apathy and indifference of our
I selves which will stand In the way of
hundreds visiting us the coming sum
i trier.
The tourist travel means much to
Nome and Seward Peninsula and it can
he procured unless pessimists have
gained an ascendancy over the opti
mists of the camp.
THOUSANDS WILL
TOUR ALASKA
In the Post-Intelligencer of Nov. IT.
tlie Seattle Commercial Club carried a
full page advertisement boosting Al
a -ha as an attraction for the tourist
The advertisement carried a number of
v iews of Alaskan scenery, and ap
peals to Seattle business men to aid in
carrying on the campaign of advertis
ing throughout the country. In speak
ing of the plan of widespread adver
tising. Col. < itto A. Cuse. secretary of
tile dull, states that it is planned to
run several full page advertisements
in tin- Saturday Kvening Post, conclud
ing with a beautifully colored double
page spread, showing the scenery of
Mask.i and tin Northwest Inquiries
aroused by I he.se advertisements will
be met with a handsome 68-page souve
nir book, containing beautifully colored
photographs of Alaska scenery, and it
is believed this will bring thousands of
tourists to the North. ,
