"If Alaska," continued Mr. Hullaine,
"were populated its thickly as the

and I maintain it could support that (
number as easily and comfortably as j
Norway, Sweden and Denmark sup-j
port their present population of 7,">00, i

able land of these countries, and its
great valleys will at no distant day l:o
transformed into productive farms'
and stock ranches. The mineral
wealth of the territory hasn't been
scratched, but I forbear to speak of
that lest I seem to exaggerate. It is
