The lengthy list of marriages pub
lished in yesterday’s issue adequate
ly proves that Alaska Is a good coun
try to come to, if a woman wishes a
husband. Alaska has been, up to the
last two or three years, essentially
a country for men In the very na
ture of things, the nomadic prospec
tor never remains in one place long
enough to form an acquaintance
with a member of the gentler sex
that would be sufficient to justify
marriage. Rut conditions in Alaska
are changing. People now come to
Alaska to live indefinitely. They are
beginning to realize that this coun
try is about as good as any other old
country, and the opportunities ate
more numero.us in the way of gain
ing a livelihood. Here a man may
scrape together a few hundred dol
lars and become a business man.. In
deed, jqst this thing has taken place
in Anchorage. We all recall in
stances in the old town where enter
prising fellows started business in a
tent and are now' comfortably housed
in substantial structures, do^ig a
good business. There are mighty
few places in the states where this
could have been accomplished. And
with the further construction of the
government railway, as it reaches
toward the big interior country, this
condition of things will be repeated
at a numbgf of points where settle
ments spring up. In a business way,
therefore, the opportunities are more
inviting in Alaska, for the man with
limited means, than on the outside.
These business m^n are bringing
their families to this country and are
forming the nucleus of a permanent
population. Most of us who have
lived in Alaska for some time have
about given up the idea of returning
to the states, to take up a permanent
abode. While we may miss some of
the so-called pleasures and amuse
ments that are nbt. available in Alas
ka. there are compensating condi
tions that far outweigh the lack of
the theatre or such flighty, transient
and unimportant recreations. In the
matter of 'health, the all-important
blessing in life—is it possible to find
a more health-giving climate than
that enjoyed in Alaska? We doubt
it very much
We hope we are not premature
when we express the belief that the
back of the winter is well broken
and the gentle, sunny spring is on
the verge of arriving. The past two
days of high temperature, compara
tively speaking, has caused the snow
to disappear with marked rapidity.
If this weather continues for a few
days more, all the snow will have
melted away.
