The Nenana district offers oppor
tunities for prospecting, fanning, 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 cf 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.

resources and possibilities of the Ne
nana district may be obtained from the

SEOUL, Korea.—At a conference
of representative Koreans which was
summoned by Governor - General
Saito to discuss the question of re
forms, the Koreans submitted a list
of nineteen requests. Generally
speaking, the Koreans demand equal
treatment with the Japanese.
The list of reforms urged in
cludes the establishment of city
councils in each town and district
in preparation for future self-gov
ernment: frequent meetings of Ko
reans from the various provinces so
that the people may exchange views;
compulsory primary education, with
Koreans given the same instruction
as Japanese; freedom of speech,
meetings, and publications; abolish
ment of the colonization policy, and
imperial pardon for participants in
the recent disturbances.
The Koreans further asked that
all state lands, formerly owned by
the people, be sold to Koreans; that
j the land appropriation law' be abol
ished; that absolute equality be
-shown in the enforcing of all regu
lations; that Koreans and Japanese
be employed in equal numbers in
the government service, and that
the “censorship of the people" be
abolished.
! Finally, the Koreans requested
that an investigation be made into
the doings of the land investigation
bureau, and that land be returned
to the original owners in cases
where the title had been taken away
because of non-compliance with cer
tain laws which should now be re
; vised.

ENTERTAIN KIDS
WITH XMAS TREE
There is a movement on foot
among the bachelor residents of
Nenana to entertain the children of
the town on Christmas, with a big
free show and a Christmas tree, sim
ilar to the affair of lasa year, which
was one of the most successful holi
day gatherings ever arranged here.
A call has been issued for a
meeting of bachelors on Saturday
night, at the Coliseum, at which
time plans for the blowout will be
discussed and committees probably
appointed to look after the various
details.
The movement doubtless will re
ceive the enthusiastic support of
the entire community, notwithstand
ing the fact that it is strictly a
bachelor affair, the promoters re
serving to themselves the pleasure
of distributing holiday joy among
the youngsters in their own way.
