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 all kinds abounds 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.

1 LEIIER WRITER
NEW YORK.—Colonel Roosevelt
; is shown in the role of a diplomatic
letter writer to European royalties,
bending even former Emperor Will
‘ iam of Germany to his will, in
freshly disclosed correspondence ed
ited by Joseph Buckiin Bishop, the
, late President’s biographer, which
appears in the April issue of Scrib
i ner’s Magazine.
The correspondence includes let
ters to and replies from King Ed
• ward, Emperor Nicholas of Russia,
the emperor of Japan, Albert, king
of the Belgians, and Queen Eliza
beth of Rumania, in addition to
the lengthy epistles that passed be
tweel the colonel and the head of
the Hohenzollerns. Writing on Au
gust 14, 1906, to Henry White, who
was then American ambassador at
!
Rome, Colonel Roosevelt said:
“My course with him "(Emperor
William) during the last five years
has been uniform. I admire him,
respect him and like him. 1 think
him a big man, and on the whole a
[ good man; but I think his interna
tional and indeed his personal atti
tude one of intense egoism. 1 have
: always been most polite with him,
have done my best to avoid our
I taking any attitude which could pos
sibly give him legitimate offense,
and have endeavored to show him
that I was sincerely friendly to him
and to Germany. Moreover, where
I have forced him to give way I
have been sedulously anxious to
build a bridge of gold for him, and
to give him the satisfaction of feel
ing that his dignity and reputation
in the face of the world were safe.
“In other words, where I have
had to take part of the kernel from
I him, I have been anxious that he
' should have all the shell possible,
and have that shell painted any way
he wished. At the same time T have
had to speak with express emphasis
!to him on more than one occasion;

I
ana on one occasion (inai oi Vene
zuela) have had to make a display
of force and to convince him defi
nitely that I would use the force if
necessary.”
Mr. Bishop declares that in spite
of the Venezuela incident of De
cember, 1902, which must have been
“a humiliating check,” the former
emperor cherished no resentment,
and subsequently wrote Roosevelt
the most friendly letters. He also
sent the colonel a number of pho
tographs showing himself and Roose
velt astride magnificent horses at
a maneuver of the German army.
On the autographed pictures he had
written: “The Colonel of the Rough
Riders lecturing the Chief of the
German Army,” “Total agreement
about the general maxims of life
and policy between America and
Germany,” “On the Muhlenburg; a
grave discussion; Carnegie look
out” and “The Chief of the Ger
man Army thanking the Colonel of
the Rough Riders for the honor of
inspecting his troops.” Mr. Car
negie, by the way, once had cred
ited a rumor that Germany was
building a strong fleet to attack the
United States.
A letter the colonel wrote to
Edward VII of England on April
25, 1906, contains a reference to
the Algeciras conference of that
year, an international parley which
at the time was said to have averted
a general European war. The bi
ographer states that “the secret his
tory of this conference, which stands
revealed in Roosevelt’s correspond
ence and which is far too long for
publication in the magazine, shows
conclusively that it was arranged
by Roosevelt at the insistent re
quest of the kaiser that Roosevelt
draw up the terms of settlement
which were adopted, and that he
fairly compelled the kaiser to give
his unwilling consent to them.”
Roosevelt’s impatience with the
ceremonies and etiquette of courts
found vigorous expression, Mr. Bish
op says, when he exclaimed, after
describing his experiences with po
tentates of various kingdoms at the
funeral of King Edward, at which
he represented the United States:
“I felt if I met another king I
should bite him!” Amused and irri
tated by the fussy anxiety displayed
by the ruler of a petty kingdom
about his prerogatives and the prece
dence to which he was entitled,
Roosevelt at another time said,
drawing upon his bird lore for a
simile, “He is nothing but a twit
tering wagtail."
Writing again to King Edward
of England, for whom he professed
a high regard, he said in 1908: “I
feel very strongly that the real in
terests of the English-speaking peo
ples are one, alike in the Atlantic
and the Pacific, and that, while
scrupulously careful neither to in
sult nor to injure others, we should
yet make it evident that we are
ready and able to hold our own.”
