River Business Increaslnq From Year to Year Will Make a Great City at the Mouth of the Yukon People Want Harbor Improvement. Will II. Drill, special correspondent for tho Seattlo Star, with tho sena torial commission In Alaska, writing from St. Michaels, says ot that far northern city: "The thing which Impresses tho visitor first about St. Michaels Is the groat amount of money tied up there. When tho trading company combine was effected two or three yoars ago and four of tho five companies operat ing In the country were combined, great fleets of river steamboats went out of business. '!A score of these boats are now on tho beach at St, Michael waiting for the elements to completo tho de struction which has already tfegun. Ten or a dn7.en of these boats nro floating palaces, or worn a year or two ago, but they have now been abandoned and It would hardly be possible to sell them for junk. "These boats cost their builders anywhere from $75,000 to $175,000 apiece and tho total cost of tho croft now abandoned In St. Michael harbor would nguro considerably over $1, 000,000. Naturally nil, these beached boats give tho town an ancient and gloomy appearance, and when tho en thusiastic company 'boomers tell of the future of St. Michael one does , not need to turn around lo sec one . of these massive hulks staring him in mi nt ftin fnnot and placing a good-sized 'copper' on tho 'boomer's' enthusiasm. "St. Michael would, however, g've promise of being nt some time a very Important point, were It not for one thing. Its chief advantage Is Its harbor, tho only one on the western coast of Alaska. There Is no doubt that tho Yukon country Is destined to a steady growth and that the nat ural business of the river Is bound to Increase, In spite of- the fnct that the great rush Is over and the boom Is broken. "There can, however, ' never be a town of any size at this point, for tho whole Island Is a military reserva tion, and even the big company plants are there only by permission of tho war department. "Tho lslnnd wns reserved years ago as a military reservation and unless a good part of It Is reopened the fu ture city at the mouth of the Yukon must be built nt some other point. "The people of St. Michael, partic ularly the big commercial compan ies, nro very anxious for tho Improve ment of their harbor, and particu larly for the improvement of the mouth of tho Yukon. "The great spread of tho waters at the mouth 'of the delta mnko nav igation there dlffloult and future con gresses will doubtless see millions of dollars In river and harbor appro priation bills for tho Improvement of this harbor and this water way." mm A MM To sweeten, To refresh, To cleanse the system, Effectually and Gently; There is only one Genuine Syrup of Figs; to get its bene ficial effects Always buy the genuine - Dispels colds and headaches when bilious or con stipated; For men, women and children; Acts best on the kidneys and liver stomach and bowels; Manufactured by the Louisville, Ky. rrniaRg Syrup C a M The g-ctjuinc Syrup of Figs is for sale by all first-class druggists.
