The people ' of the . PaciBc Coast are much interested in the well being of our new poss essions in the Pacific Ocean from a financial view point. ' To make clear the interests we have in the new , lands the following figures 1 are taken from1 -the Monthly Summary of Commerce and finance compiled- by the Bureau of Statistics, Department of Commerce and labor ior April 1904. ; i From it is gathered that dur ing the 10 months ending with April 1904 these were shipped Irom the United States to Alaska domestio merchandise to the value of . $7,000,871, of ' this $267,803 was for bread, $160,881 for fruits and nuts, $107,477 for animals, $120,177 for 409,248 dozen of eggs and provisions comprising oared and canned meats and early products $798,- 495 worth. The most discouraging thing to Oregonians about the Alaskan trade is that while Washington sold to Alaska for the ten months ending with April 1904 $4,690,073 worth of stuff, and California for the same period sold Alaska $2,262,664 worth, Oregon only sold to our northern neighbor $48,134 worth of things. ; 7 During the same period there were shipped from Alaska to the United States gold in base bullion valued at $5,432,151 and refined bullion worth ; $482,940 and $14,123 in gold coin making the total shipment of gold from Alaska to the United States foot up $5,909,214. During the same ten month the shipment of gold from Alaska 10 foreign countries in base bullion was Two large armies equipped with all ; the latest modern armament are now about., to meet and the world is anxiously awaiting to bear what the result will be. . While possibly a large per cent of the population of the world are to day - sympathisers of Japan, it is not by any means certain that the peace of the world would be assured or that condi tions would ... be permanently bettered if Japan should piove victorious over Russia.
