The Nenana district offers oppor
tunities for prospecting, farming, and
trapping that are unequaled in any
other section of Alaska.
Gold placers of known value, close
to Nenana, are producing annually sub
stantial amounts, and there are scores
of streams within the district on which
little or no prospecting has been done.
These streams, until a short time ago
almost inaccessible, are now easily
reached by means of the new Govern
ment Railroad, and undoubtedly soon
will be the scene of much mining ac
tivity.
Farming in the Nenana district has
the advantage of a growing season fully
ten days longer than that of any other
section of Interior Alaska. There is
much desirable land in the district open
to homesteaders, and marketing possi
bilities are being expanded steadily.
Fur-bearing animals of the Nenana
and adjacent districts are noted for the
fine quality of their fur, and trappers
annually bring large numbers of pelts
to Nenana and receive for them higher
prices than are obtained for the average
furs of other districts.
Game of aH Iraida abumflfc in the
Nenana. district, there are scores of
trout streams easy of access, and the
scenic wonders of the district are un
surpassed. The district is the natural
gateway to Mt. McKinley National
Park, and close to Nenana may be
viewed the largest coal ledges in the
world.

resources and possibilities of the Ne

FUEL PROBLEMS
TO BE CONSIDERED
BY ELECTRICIANS
PASADENA. Cal.. May 18.—So
lution of the fuel problems con
fronting America through the use
of electricity will be the dominat
ing note of the convention of the
National Electric Light association,
which began its annual session in
this city today.
Foremost among the questions
which the National Electric Light
association is endeavoring to work
out are: the electrification of steam
railroads; the inter-connection of
the lines of power-generating com
panies so that their production ca
pacity can be continually kept at
the maximum; the shifting of the
electrical load so that it can be
most scientifically and economically
devoted to meet the demands at
the time of the greatest require
ment; the development of the avail
able hydro-electric energy as rap
idly as construction can be financed,
and the application of ‘all modern
methods toward making the gen
eration of electricity by steam pro
duce the highest potentiality for the
amount of fuel consumed.
Financing of the unprecedented
requirements which conditions have
thrust upon the 5,500 electric-gen
erating companies of America brings
the banking interests of the coun
try in very close touch with ths
electric men who are representing
the national association at the con
vention here, according to R. H
Ballard, president of the organiza
tion.
John B. Miller, head of one of
the largest electrical generating
companies of the West, is chairman
of the convention.

DEM. DELEGATES
TO ED TO BE
WELL CARED FOR
CHICAGO.—A new departure in
political convention management
has been launched by the Demo
cratic national committee, which has
I
opened a transportation bureau here
to care for the delepates, alternates
and spectators who will po to San ,
Francisco to attend the convention i
June 28.
The shortape of railroad equip- '
ment and the flood of traffic on all
roads is responsible for the innova
tion.
"See America First" tours to
points of interest in the West, in
cludinp Yellowstone park, the prand
canyon, Los Anpeles and others,
are beinp planned by the Democrats
as a lure to attract at 'east a part
of the travelers westward two or
three weeks before the convention,
thereby spreadinp the burden on the
railroads over a lonper period.
For the return trip from San
Francisco a system has been worked
out whereby the visitors can buy
eastbound tickets within thirty-six
hours after the convention opens,
the tickets to call for return pass
ape eipht hours after the convention
closes. The bippest problem in con
vention transportation has always
been the return trip, as the day
and hour for the close is always un
certain.
E. K. Rixby. a transportation
official of the Pennsylvania railroad
system, has been loaned to the Dem
ocratic committee to take charp >
of the transportation bureau. He
has obtained the co-operation of
the association of Western pass
enper apents. and the Pullman com
pany has promised him first call for
its parlor car equipment.
