SOME OMAHA IGNORANCE
Seattle Paper Enlightens a Carper
at Alaska
The Seattle Trade Register talus
this fall out of a Middle West paper:
“The Omaha Trade Exhibit exposes
woeful ignorance respecting Alaska
when it says: ‘The gold output of
Alaska is estimated hr the current
year at KU)0(\0<)0. not a v« y large
figure when the cost of getting *ho
metal is taken into consideration, and
when the further fact that goldisabout
the only product oi the hleaK northern
territory is considered. The expense
of living and the cost ot production
will certainly more than consume all
of the gold produced this year, it we
are to believe the stories which come
to us.’ It would be just as correct to
say that Omaha is nothing hut a hog
pen and immeasurable filthy, because
it has a hog market. Alaska's tish out
put annually exceeds $20,000,000 in
value: it has untold value in copper
coal, oil, marble and other products,
has large and rich agricultural areas
and many sections with abetter climate
than many other sections ol the l nited
States. The above quotation is the
worst of misrepresentation.'
