OUTLOOK IS PROMISING.
Now that the labor dispute has
been amicably adjusted and work on
the big railway project has been re
sumed. the outlook for Anchorage
and the country contiguous is espe
cially auspicious for this season. In
deed, with the railway work but
fairly begun, we get a glimmer of ]
the possibilities in the way of devel
opfent. Probably the mining Indus- .
try will, for the next few years, form '
the most valuable resource of the
country traversed by the railway
line, but those of us who have lived
here for any length of time are opti
mistic over the agricultural re
sources. Very naturally, the devel
opment of the agricultural industry
is wholly dependent on the demand
for the products that may be raised.
Before the railway enterprise was
i begun, the market was limited to the
; needs of a comparatively small popu
: lation. Hence, the settler was not
■ encouraged to develop his land, bc
■ yond a limited area for his own ne
cessities. But this condition has
now changed. The settler may busy
himself with tilling the soil in the
j knowledge that what he grows will
I he consumed, and that there will be
I a handsofe prolit in the growing of
! the herb crops, as well as the
grasses.
In the mining industry, it is fair
to assume tnat the coal measures t
will be the most important and give j
employment to much the largest j
number of men. But the mining of
gold, both in the lode and placer de
(posits, will form an important part;'
j of this industry. And in time cop- j
per, known to be native to this re- j
gion, will be mined. So with other
fetal and mineral deposits of com
mercial importance.
Messrs. Frame and Hunter an
nounce that they will begin the pub
lication of a daily newspaper in An
i chorage in the very near future. Mr.
Frame has been publishing the
1 Forty-ninth Star at Valdez, and Mr.
i Hunter is the publisher of the Week
ly Alaskan. The Pioneer welcome^!
the new daily in the local hold and
wishes the publishers all success
possible.
