Citizens of Skagway, Alaska, have
organized a Commercial Club and are
preparing to make an active publicity

understanding of the actual condition
of things In that part of the territory.
Howard Ashley, mayor of Skagway,
a prime mover In this new venture,
said: "We wish to put the name of
Skagway before the reading public In
such a way that it will be known as a:
prosperous and progressive city. Most;
persons have the wrong idea of tho;
territory. To rectify these wrong im
pressions we are planning an educa
tional campaigu.
"Part of the work of the club will ^
consist in providing as comfortable
hotel accommodations in Skagway as
In the large cities of the country. j
Wo shall plan excursions into the
Skagway district. We wish the travel
crs to seo for themselves what has
so impressed overy person who has
been in the big Northern territory."
