Following is a quote from the let- iter explaining part of the contents {of the collettion: | “The library contains around 6,500 | |items and ‘covers 200 years of the history of the Territory, 1724-1924. | It starts with and carries the reader through the movement of the Rus- sians as ‘sable trappers eastward over Siberia early in the eighteenth | century, and eventually as sea otter | hunters to Alaska. Many of itsi more %\aluable items are very old and rare | books giving accounts'of the heroic | voyages that were made in the lat- | ter half of the seventeen hundreds !in quest of the “Northwest Passage.” }Thls group of books covers Russian, | Spanish, French, English and Amer- | ican explorers. The highly interest- +|ing adventures and discoveries of such outstanding navigators as Ber- ing, Malaspina, LaPerouse, Cook, Vancouver and Dixon are given in | their own words. “Another group of books covers the ¢ntire venture of the Russian-Am- erican Company and its principal of- | ficer, Baranof; another covers the | work of missionaries and schools for natives from the Russian days on- ward; still another the early govern- ment of the Territory under Ameri- can rule; the highly romantic gold | { rush period is covered in detail as is | | the introduction of reindeer; the| events leading up to the fur seal| | treaty wih Great Britain, Russia | {and Japan; the International Boun- | | dary dispute with Canada; the fight to cbtain the Alaska Railroad, and | the Ballinger-Pinchot = controversy | cver Alaska’s coal fields.” Complete ' File Judge Wickersham, continues the letter, has gathered a complete file of all magazines and newspapers ever printed,in the Territory and in- cludes the hand written =“Esqui- maux’ that was issued in northern Alaska in 1866 by the employees of Left, raincoat of sheer-o-sheen; center, pliosheen coat; girl's raincape with hood; right, new raincoat.
