K. Keller, Commissioner of Education who made the Seattle-Nome trip on the last sailing of the Vic- toria. The steamer was rocked by the same storm which sank a Japanese steamer early in October, not so far away from the Victoria, |and later another gale was én- countered which forced the vessel to lay behind St. Lawrence Island |for three days. | Winter conditions held sway from Nome to Seward, and over the entire country between, no bare ground was seen. Snow covered everything. | Conditions in the Territory, Mr. Keller said, are directly contrary to those he observed in Washing- ton State. There people are talk- ing hard times and having them. In Alaska, there is no talk of de- pression and no evidence of it. e, | A CHRISTMAS SUGGESTION | Give a Juneau cook book, $1.00. At the Coffee Shoppe. —adv.
