it la a Hard Teat
EVEN the elements seem to have con
tracted the Alaskan fever, and are con
tributing to the earTv commencement of work
on the government railroad.
The icc broke up on the 5,000 miles of
navigable streams in Alaska, the earliest in
history. Immediately these streams will be
covered with busy steam ve-sels carrying men
and supplies to the hundreds of mining camps.
»s well as to the last increasing farming corn
jiiunitie«.
! A rush to Alaska that will equal the klon
ijike days will surely follow the resumption
■of traffic.
! It is well to sound a note of warning to the
Over-enthusiastic. Alaska is undoubtedly a
territory of glorious opportunity, a wonder
land for the young man, with health and
and courage
• But he who goes there poorly equipped,
physically, financially, morally or mentally,
must succumb in time to the adamantine
character of the country
The government railroad will give employ
ment to a small fraction of the horde which
will seek labor. Work will not be plentiful,
jgold does not cover the earth, nor lie around
in every gulch, as many fools and dreamer*
picture.
Success in Alaska. a« elsewhere, depends
Vtpon the hardest kind of work.
The man who goes there prepared to suffer
severest hardship, to labor diligently and
faithfully, early and late, who carne- with
him a determination to play the game on the
square, with himself and this new country of
promise, who abides by that determination
through weal and woe, will be well repaid It
take* a strong man to do all these thing-.
To him Ala-ka beckons, but to the weak
ling or the quitter, it turns a cold shoulder.
WHEN YOU hear a suburbanite calling;
Maud to come into the garden these day
you may know his early lettuce is coming up
IT IS all right to swat the fly, but you can
save yourself a whole lot of swatting by
putting a new cover on the garbage can.
