TEMPLE & WILCOX, Local Agents FUTURE OF ALASKA POSSIBILITIES OF TERRITORY BEYOND COMPREHENSION. Leaving Out the Great Mining Possl bllltles, Her Resources Are Rich for Commerce, Cattle Raising, Ag riculture and Fishing. D. H. Jarvis, former lieutenant in the revenue cutter service, and at the present timo collector of customs at Sitka. Alaska, is ln Washington conferring with treasury officials as to matters In his Held. Lieutenant Jarvis Is generally rocosnitcd as most thoroughly prated nun ln tho united States (.n Alak:i Ills at- ai(,nnienis in the revenue cutter service for 15 years w.no continu ously in tlmt region, and he led tho niumornoie overland expedition that took succor to a number of whalers imprisoned in the Ice at Point Bar row, In tho liciimr Thn iiiv dicament of these men was something terrible, and the treasury dnnnrtmnnt started Lieutenant Jarvis with relief ouppiics in tne early part of the win er of 1S07-0S. He reached the men and furnished them medicines, and is the only man who ever undertook such a journey. The customs affairs at Sltkn had been Crowing worse for a number nf vnnrs and tho treasury department a year ago Induced Ueutenant Jarvis to put as-ide his revenue cutter work long t'liuiifin 10 iiiKe cnarge o the govern ment work at Sitka. Ho complied with the request and lias brought order out of chaos. Mr. Jarvis has chargo of supports that are 2000 miles away from Sitka nnd that require over 30 flays to reach with official messages "The only trouble with Alaska is that the people of the United States do not know what a grand country it is," said Mr. Jarvis to a Star report er. "A campaign of education In the United States would add to tho iiotiu latlon of Alaska by many thousands and would soon make it one of tho great countries of the world. The posluilities of the territory are be yonu comprehension. Leaving out mining for everybody knows that Alaska is rich ln gold and silver the future of the territory will bo a brilliant one of commerce, cattle raising, agriculture and fishing. There is tne greatest Ignorance about Alas' ka. Why, some of the rich islands of tho territory are larger than sev eral of the small states. There is a roast line to Alaska of 23,000 miles. Think of that. The people lu the states associate Alaska with seals and Icebergs, and whenever Alaska is mentioned that is about the first and only thing that comes to the mind unless it is something remote about gold discoveries. "All this winter at Sitka the ther mometer never went below 8 degrees above zero. I believe someone was telling me that the weather had reached that point a number of times the past winter In Washington, it certainly was way below that at many places throughout the country. Of course, Sitka Is on the coast and that is to see the future development of Alaska so far as stockraislng and agriculture are concerned. There are 2fi00 miles of coast in Southern Alaska, where the temperature is never below 8 degrees above zero and where It Is as mild in the dead of winter aB In half the United States. Just think of that. Experiments arc now being made in many places as to cattle and sheep raising. Only re cently 3000 sheep were placed on I)0' ktah Island which is 100 miles loni; and CO wide. It Is believed that the Sheep will stand the mild climato well, and that there will be less feed Ing of the flock In winter than In many of the Western and Northwest' em states. The grass in spring and summer grows temptingly green, and cattle and sheep grow fat and con tented. As to vegetation there is hardly a place in Alaska where they will not attain splendid growth. Of course, the Interior of Alaska, far back from the coast, is cold, and the summers short, but there are hun dreds and thousands of the most fer tile valleys in tho interior where veg etables will grow easily. I saw a man at Cape Nome last year making a good living selling vegetables ho had raised from a small garden. Cape Nome Is a good ways up the coast too. Mild Weather Along Coast. "The mild weather along the coast namtpA It Ik irenerallv sunDOSCd. liv thn Tnnani'sn rnrrent. Whatever causes It, however, the coast country one of the most aesirauie spots in i. n-nrM nnd hefriTR manv vears will awac,, tvlM, mnn1f. (.niraeed ln cattle raising and sheep raising, agriculture and commerce. As to tne agricultur al flnvplonmnnt nf tho interior I don't know, except that In the summer any egetablo that grows may ne raised rttb ease, f have known three crops tr rariluhMc irmivii from tho same cpot of ground In Alaska In one sum mer." Mr Jarvis said that the land laws Alaska are now more lavorauie tW-JVy-v. x i Is than ever before to settlers, anu mat this will Induce many people to go there. The Incentive to agricultural development will not be great until fficlent people reach me territory afford a market ror tne tilings timi raised. su to are Trade Relations With Latin America.

When n laxative is needed the remedy which is given to them to cleanse and sweeten and strengthen the Internal organs on which it acts, should be such as physicians would sanction, because its component parts are known to bo wholesome and the remedy itself free from every objectionable quality. The one remedy which physicians and parents, well-informed, approve and recommend and which the little ones enjoy, because of Its pleasant flavor, Its gentle action and its beneficial effects, is Syrup of Figs and for the same reason It is the only laxative which should be used by fathers and mothers. Syrup of Figs is the only remedy which acts gently, pleasantly and naturally without griping, irritating, or nauseating and which cleanses the system effectually, without producing that constipated habit which results from the use of the old time cathartics and modern Imitations, and against which the children should be so carefully guarded. If you would have them grow to manhood and womanhood, strong, healthy and happy, do not give them medicines, when medicines are not needed, and when nature needs assistance in the way of a laxative, give them only the simple, pleasant and gentle Syrup of Figs. Its quality Is due not only to the excellence of the combination of the laxative principles of plants with pleasant aromatic syrups and juices, but also to our original method of manufacture and as you value the health of the little ones, do not accept any of the substitutes which unscrupulous dealers sometimes offer to Increase their profits.
