MORE POWER TO THEM
Following the visit of four Mormon elders from the
State of Utah this summer looking into agricultural pos
sibilities in the Territory, there come vagrant rumors of
representatives of Utah manufactureres invading Alas
ka to sell their wares. These things hook up together for
F - undoubted good of Alaska and may be coming as co
incidental happenings of the success by the Aleutian
Livestock company on Unalaska and Urnnak Islands
where some of the finest wool in the world is being grown,
backed by Utah and Oregon captial.
If the Mormons will come here to till the soil and es
tablish homes, it is a consummation devoutly to be wish
ed. There is no liner sect and there are no more progress
ive citizens in the world todav than those whc built up
a small empire in the one-time desert wastes of Utah.
They are builders and achievers; thev have high ideals
and they teach their children in music, arts and higher
education to the degree that a better and finer race is
coming out of Utah to carry the ideals of the Mormon
church to far lands thruout the world.
They were the first of the English-speaking people
to establish the efficacy of irrigation in reclaiming the
arid lands of the West and their farms and orchards
auiu vineyards bear bountifully in tribute to their efforts.
It would be a glad day for Alaska if they would come
me to set up new homes and communities.
Investors who buy development shares from mining
prospects or companies are helping to make the nation
prosperous.
Missouri went dry, but she probably will be thirsty
again by November.
Metal plays the principal part in the national destin
ies of European countries. „
A “primary’’ election is well named: meaning a first
t/ grade school for politiciains.
