GREATER TRAVEL TO TERRI
TORY THIS YEAR THAN
LAST, STATED
I — -
The Territory of Alaska, says
a statement from the Department
of the Interior, is becoming popu
lar as a resort for tourists. Thirty
five thousand excursionists last
year visited Southeastern Alaska.
An excursion of the Los Angeles
! Chamber of Commerce took 173
people to the Far North, and is
being repeated this year with the
expectation that there will be 200
people in the party. Following
the lead of Los Angeles, Seattle
sent 37, and now the Portland
Chamber of Commerce is sending
an excursion of 80 people to A
aska, £fhd the Sierra Club of San
Francisco is also sponsoring a
party. All of these agencies and
many others will operate on ex
cursions for the coming summer.
The Department regrets that
many of these excursions go no
further than Southeastern Alaska.
It believes that they would be
more attractive from the tourist
standpoint if they included Seward
and the rail trip to Fairbanks.
This latter trip would include also
a visit to Mt. McKinley National
Park which is one of the most
beautiful of Uncle Sam’s groups
of parks, including what is ad
mittedly the most magnificent
mountain in North America and
the highest mountain in the world
above its base. Despite its attract
iveness this park had less than a
thousand visitors last year.
J This year the Alaska Railroad is
(also conducting a Government em
ployees excursions from Washing
ton to Alaska, and two or three
of the great railroad systems in
the United States and in Canada
are likewise planning excursions
from New York, Philadelphia and
Boston.
Horace M. Albright, Director of
the National Park Service, will
visit Alaska this summer as will
a number of Government officials
interested in the reorganized ad
ministration of that Territory.

DROWNED OR PERISHED
That Willis Whittridge came to
his death either by drowning in
the turbulent waters of Harris
creek last summer or by perishing
on the trail while endeavoring to
get out of the isolated district
where he was engaged in develop
ing a mining claim, is indicated
by entries by the oldtimer in a
diary which was found in his Har
ris creek cabin this spring by El
mer Simcoe and C. C. Tousley,
who returned to Anchorage several
days ago from a winter of trapping
in the Kosina district, reports the
Anchorage Times.
INJURED
Word was received last week
by the Ketchikan Tribune that
a rigger had been caught and a
leg broken above the knee. The
name of the injured man had not
been learned at the time.
