THE ALASKA WOMAN
We hear much about the trials, tribulations and hard
ships which attend the life of a prospector in the North
land. Far be it from us to detract one iota from the cre
dit and honor due to these early pioneers—forerunners
of a great future civilization. But we desire at this time
to say a few words in behalf of man's loyal, trusting and
patient helpmate—the women of Alaska. Sharing with
the miner his struggles enduring with patience and with
out murmur the ups and downs which form a part of his
life’s work in the search for gold; encouraging him when
he is discouraged; uncomplainingly dispensing with many
of the comforts of life; ever careful and solicitous for
his material welfare—these are some of the attributes of
the true woman of the Northland—and thrice blessed is
the man who secures for his life's companion, such a one.
The very nature of woman’s work places her in the
background. He r husband may be the recipient of hon
or, admiration and praise for some rich discovery made,
or some deed of valor done,.but we seldom observe the
silent, reserved figure, whose kindly ministrations and
devoted loyalty and self sacrifice were largely responsible
for his success, in whatever vocation it may be.
The United States bureau of mines estimates that the
Southern anthracite field- including Dauphin county and
a large part of Schuylkill, contains enough hard coal to
last 408 years at the present rate of production. The un
mined coal is reckoned at nearly 1,000,000,000 tons. This
sounds encouraging, but it is a safe guess that unless the
anthracite operators and miners stop their everlasting
disputes and cooperate in a fashion that will allow their
coal to be sold at a more reasonable figure the use of an
thracite will have ceased before 2334 and much of the
deposits will remain in the ground untouched. Electri
city, oil, gas, coke, the better grades of bituminous coal
and other fuels are making such inroads into the anthra
cite market that its future is problematical.
