ADVERTISING ALASKA.
Skagway, Alaska, has an enterpris- j
ing commercial club, which has raised
a considerable sum of money with :
which to prepare, print and circulate >
booklets to advertise the attractions ;
of the town from a scenic standpoint, .
with a view to attracting tourists dur
ing the summer season. The peo
ple of the town believe that with pro
per advertising hundreds of tourists
may be attracted there.
If the scenic attractions of Alaska
were as well known as those of Eu
rope, there would not be merely hun
dreds. but thousands of tourists to
visit that territory every season.
What has been done in the direction
of advertising the facts In regard to
Alaksa's scenery, has been almost al
together by the transportation com
panies which run excursions to Alas
ka during the summer.
Kor the combination of water and
mountaiu scenery, beautiful bays, gi
Cantic glaciers, lofty mountains and
the like, Europe has nothing to offer
iu grandeur and beauty that will com
part with what Alaska has. And. as
a fact, all this is easily and cheaply
accessible to tourists from all parts
of the l'uit*>d States. The expenditure j
is nothing as compared with the cost
of a trip to Norway or to Switzerland j
There Is not the slightest approach j
to discomfort in a summer voyage to I
Southeastern Alaska. It Is all to be j
had comfortably, easily and cheaply, I
but only a relatively small number of |
people in the I'nlted States realize
the fact yet.
Bach year sees an increase in the ;
army of tourists visiting the Pacific !
? oast. Southern California is the prin- 1
elpal attraction for them, largely be i
cause Southern California is a thor- 1
oughly advertised section of the coun
try. Soon or late, the scenic attrac- !
tions of the North will bring an even
creater army here and to Alaska |
Such work as the Skagway people [
nrv doing will help toward advancing
the time. ? Seattle P. I.

Twice ducked
Just before the Hegg left for Skag
way Wednesday afternoon. .Martin
Nelson of Skagway, who was going
back to the Windy City, slipped on
some ice while trying to board the
boat and fell into the icy water.
Charlie Adams, the boatswain on
the Hegg, saw Nelson's mishap and :
running to the edge of the boat caught j
him by tho collar before ho couiil sin
Capt. Madsen came to the rescue and
Nelson was pulled aboard.
Nelson had an armful of bundles
and the Hegg had to cruise round the
harbor, salvaging them one by one.
When Nelson w44 disembarking at
Skagway he again fell overboard and
was thoroughly drenched for the sit
ond time. ? Haines Pioneer Press.
