I THE KEY
i -access of agriculture there must be*
narkcls for the products, and the p>
ju.lati *n ol* Alaska is as yet too
-mall t * » m.'ti'.u'e such market, and
lie distance to cities along the Pacific
•o,»'t is so great that Alaska produc
ou' i not he shipped with success o
a competition with what those stafe
roda e within their own confines.
1 t’g. therefore, in Alaska is no
an inducement to he held out to ou *
• etui nod soldier; and sailors.
:; >.vovo»\ several thousand young
in * < an lie provided for here by our
principal industries, which are com
rcial. mining, fishing and lumbe»
.of which but all that of fishin;
.-?(ady. twelve months in the yeai
ai 1 \< ar in and year out. All of those
’ ! t ie- are and have been opera*
i’ ’• < n short labor ever since the Unit
I States entered the war. Also all
*f the o industries are now awaiting
the return of those who left, as we!1
at the arrival of new men, in ordo
' at normal conditions may be resum
'd a ad the volume of business in*
asod at the earliest possible dat •
It is conservative to state that 5000
' Ming men can be furnished with re
’lumeiative employment in Alaska
during the first four months of th*
new year, hut it is not desired that
tlmy all come at once, or even in
e rubes of several hundred. But by a
v arriving with every steamer from
I 1 <n:»h, they can be absorbed and
provided for by the country without
any congestion. Also , and as soon a
no: m:d prices obtain, a number of low
wnd mining propositions which car*
not bo operated c,n account of the hif h
cost, both of material and labor, will
ng*ii ; become active, and at least an
other men will be required.
A '••• i\ 4lie opportunities in A1ask.t
for y, m:’ men to pet into business fo;*
themselves are many and varied, a’'d
the r«- ult is that the business instant
ly increasing and the scope for the
ot I ’oyment of labor steadily broad
ening.
A’v ha will welcome returned wa •
heroes with open arms, and will put
them in line to do something for them
selves but they must not come hen*
with the idea that gold nuppets con
be plucked from trees. Robert W. Ser
vice had the right line on Alaska whf n
he wrote:
“The’-p arc hardships which nobody
reckons;
There are valleys unpeopled and still;
There is a bond—oh, it beckons and
: beckons,
Ami T want to go there—and I will.”
