Kach da; sees the Interest In
the Second Annual Skagway llortl
riiltur.il and Industrial Fair becom
ing keener, and thus la evidenced
the fact that the i?-ople of Skagway
are alive to the vast araouut of
benefit which will ncrue to this
< mit; i! the entire Territory friV
the advertising which such an ex
specs we look ahead, and see with
in the next few years a perfectly
lost man In the North attending to
the many details which such an ex-;
hibltiou as this will then bo prepar
ing ? arranging for space for the
exhibitors, arranging details of
transportation from the neighbor
ing towns ?nd cauips; solving the
questlou of accommodating the vis
itors with proper shelter and food;
and last but not least, securing an
adequate building or buildings for
stuck, poultry and industrial exhib
Its of this wonderful Northland.
As we view the situation today
we are hourly' In receipt of requests
for space, and this paper has re
ceived several iuquiries as to terms
of competitions and whether or not
This matter was settled for the ^
coming few years at the busluCi's
last yeai The question of ways j
and means was then discussed, and
a as decided that Inasmuch as j
there were no heavy expenses to be
met by the association, a noniin. 1
i.dmisninn fee would be ample to
giving of such an exhibition and this j
??as proven correct when the treas
urer of the association reported a
small balauce on hand after all
It now remains with the people
of Skagway to carry through t'i'i
year's fair to a gre-ated success ev
en than the one of last year, which
was gotten up within one week's n.v
tlce, and proved to be the greatest
exhibition of its kind ever giveu iii
the entire Northland. It was such
a sucess. that even the very exhibi
tors were amazed by the vast quan
tity and quality of the produce sud
That there Is to be a greater ??x
Mbitlon this year than last is now a
foregone conclusion, us the dcinanJs
made 'or space demonstrates the
fact that the Horticultural Hall will
l.et us keep awake to the possi
bilities to be gained by making this
Fair a bigger and better one each
year, so that the charter members
of the Skagway Horticultural anU
Industrial Fair association can look
back with pride to the days when;
the first "Skagway Fair" was hold,
and point to Its yearly growth w!?.h
a feeling that they had used their
pioneer energy and kuowledge In
making the "Skagway Fairs" tbo
annual event of the North.

pleaded for a little more protection
for the maple sugar of his state. I?

box of the finest maple sugar that
ever reached the capital. Each
box was packed full of half ounce
cakes separately wrapped and on tho
cover was a picture of the old-fash
loued bobsled drawn by ?. yoke of
steers, waiting beside a big maple
tree in the waads. It was a lobby
gift that reachcd the spot.
Senator Williams for the Demo
