DR. GOE TELLS
(Oregon Journal, Portland)
In Alaska a sturdy race is now
growing up. The children that have
come to the residents of the northern
territory have the advantage of the
ruggedness acquired by their parents.
The weaklings have been eliminated
by the effects of the climate.
Such were the observations today of
Dr. Henry Waldo Coe, who has just
returned from a trip that took him
along the coast and well into the in
terior.
Dr. Coe was much impressed and
much surprised by what he saw and
heard in the north. For example, he
learned that the exports of Alaska
this year will exceed $75,000,000 in
value, ore and fish being, of course,
the chief commodities. Out of Cordo
va alone in one month $3,000,000
worth of crude copper ore was sent
to the states for refining.
Mining Activity Feature.
Dr. Coe believes that another big
movement is on in the mining regions.
He said that 1,000 prospectors are now
working on Willow creek back of An
chorage where a free milling proposi
tion^ being developed that looks like
quite a producer.
“ Merchants of Alaska would like to
encourage trade with Portland,” said
Dr. Coe. “ They feel that they need
help to put their commercial enter-1
prises fairly on foot and believe Port
land should help them. They feel that
it is not necessary for Portland to en
ter Alaska as a competitor of Seattle
at all, because the field is wide and the
new regions that are now being built
up afford plenty of business. They
feel that Portland could fairly enter,
however, as competitor with San
Francisco, especially in the northern
regions.”
Portland Urged to Act.
Dr. Coe believes that Portland
should go after the trade in Bristol
bay and take active part in the fisher
ies of that region.
Seattle now has a bitter fight on
with Prince Rupert, the terminus of
the new Grand Trunk railroad, over
the halibut industry. Since the
through rail connection has made Ru
pert a near port for the halibut boats,
great train loads of fish that formerly
went east through Seattle now take
the Canadian route. Dr. Coe believes
Portland should help Seattle in this
fight to retain for the United States
the control of the halibut trade.
“The people of Alaska are much
pleased with Senator Chamberlain and
the things he has done and is doing
for Alaska,” continued the doctor.
“ His work in connection with the rail
road development and the fisheries will
long be remembered.”
Dr. Coe on his return expects to
push the construction of a new wing
to Morningside hospital, where the
Alaskan insaneare cared for. The
wing will cost approximately $10,
000.
ALASKA ROMANCE HAS
ENDING IN MARRIAGE
(Juneau Empire)
A very pretty little romance was
brought to a fitting climax last night
in the marriage of Miss Bertha Steel
berg, of San Francisco, to Olaf C.
Gunderson, of this place, at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. D. A. Wood, W. W.
Batcheller tying the knot.
The couple met first in Anchorage
and, after Mr. Gunderson came to Ju
neau, a regular correspondence was
kept up with the result that Miss
Steelberg came to Juneau also and the
wedding took place.
Mr. Gunderson is associated with
Mr. Wood in the transfer business and
therefore the newlyweds will make
their home here, adding another hap
py couple to Juneau’s population.

(Juneau Empire)
Ex-Governor John G. Brady, who
has made only one visit to Alaska in
the last six years, but who is an in
veterate booster for this territory and
who has always considered himself an
Alaskan first and an American after
wards, has returned and is a guest at
the home of Mr. and Mrs. B. M. Behr
ends, where he will remain for several
days before leaving for Sitka. Mrs.
Brady and daughter Miss Mary Brady
are with him.
Governor Brady, as he is affection
ately known, was the chief executive
of this territory from 1897 to 1909,
continuously and is known in all parts
of Alaska by thousands of the resi
dents of the territory. Governor Bra
dy and family are returning to Sitka
where they will locate, after having
traveled over a large portion of the
world since leaving Alaska six years
ago.
During that time Miss Brady has
been attending school in the east and
recently graduated from Vassar col
lege.
While in Seattle recently Governo'
Brady in an interview to the press is
sued a warning to the business men
there against the loss of business
which they will suffer on account of
the Canadian campaign for the busi
ness of Alaska.
Governor Brady said in part at that
time:
“ Canadian merchants are planning
a concerted campaign for the acquisi
tion of the Alaskan trade,” declared
ex-Governor Brady last night. “ This
is not an imaginative theory, but a
fact. Already Seattle is feeling the
effects of the Canadian inroads into
the fisheries business, but this is only
a starter to what is to come. Prince
Rupert is to be the Canadian base of
operations, and it will not be long be
fore the campaign for the Alaska
trade will be inaugurated on an ex
tensive basis from that point. It is
up to the American mercantile inter
ests to awaken to this situation and
plan to combat the Canadian inroads.
“ Alaska is primarily a part of the
United States, and it is therefore im
perative that the vast business of that
growing territory be retained by this
country. Canadian enterprise, how
ever, is likely to make serious inroads
unless immediate action is taken to
wards safeguarding and retaining this
vast commercial business.
