Show I Alaska. The latest report is that Alaska possesses unlimited un-limited amounts of copper and of coal. Probably to these iron will be added. Then she will be an empire complete in herself. Let us see. No end of gold, no end of copper, no end of coal, no end of timber, no end of fish and a climate that will permit all the hardy vegetables and fruits to mature and such cereals as rye and oats. Who says Alaska cannot only get along, but have enough to spare to keep her growing rich for all time? That was a great purchase, that -of Alaska. If the United States had accepted British Columbia in lieu of the Geneva award, would not we be fixed? |
