The famous speech of Congress
man Suiter of New York In which
he lands Alaska, has been printed
in half the newspapers of the
Tnitod States. It has opened the
eyes of many regarding the magni
tude of this land. The following
are some of the more striking para
graphs from the speech of the
Sourdough Senator:
"Alaska Is a marvelous land. She
would make 470 states of the site
of Rhode Island She has the
greatest gold, and iron, and copper,
and lead, and coal, and tin deposits
In North America. Alaska has '
599,449 square miles of territory-- J
more than 383,645,445 acres of
land ? and the greatest fishing wa
ters tii all the world, teeming with
the beat food flsb on earth
"Alaska Is God's country. She is
over twice the slse of the German '
empire; 14 times the alie of the!
state of New York; and has more
copper known today than Michigan
and Arisona combined. She is on? (
fifth the sl?e of the entire United
States; bas paid for herself five
times over in money actually collect
ed In Alaska and deposited in th*
federal treasury. Alaska was pur
ch??ed from Russia for $7,300,000.!
less than 2 cents an acre, and has
produced in gold 'and silver alone
more than 29 times what she cost ?
the cheapest bargain In land in the ,
annals of time.
"Alaska has a known coal-bear
ing area larger thnn all the rest of
the coal-bearing urea in the United
States. Alaska has the greatest
cattle and sheep ranges now In the
north, and agricultural possibilities
beyond the Imagination of the finite
mind ? a mighty empire Is Alaska
that welcomes heroic man.
"Alaska has a tremendous coast
line. The coast line of the United
States on the Atlantic, on the Gulf,
and on the Pacific is a little less
than 8,000 miles. Our coast line
in Alaska, from Cape Chacon
around to Herschel Island In the
Arctic Ocean, Is over 20,000 miles."
The Nome Democrat complains
that the city treasury Is broke and
lays the blame upon Mayor Gilmore
The Nome Nugget in apologising
for Gilmore says that he should not i
be blamed alone for the condition
of the treasury because other mem- j
bers of the council helped So
things at home do not look so love- j
ly for the delegate Candida'? as
Shackleford has tried to make us
believe.
