THE NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC MAGAZINE. 



The National Geographic Magazine is a journal of geography, physical, commer- 

 cial, and political. It aims to convey new information and current opinion on geographic 

 matters, and to be a medium of communication between geographers in America and 

 Europe. Its editorial staff includes officers and experts of the different scientific bureaus 

 of the Government, each representing a field teeming with facts of geographic interest. 

 Its corps of contributors comprises nearly every United States citizen whose name has 

 become identified with Arctic exploration, the Bering Sea controversy, the Alaska and 

 Venezuela boundary disputes, or the new commercial and political questions arising from 

 the acquisition of the Philippines. Through the cordial cooperation of the different 

 diplomatic representatives of foreign nations at Washington, it is able to present the 

 latest and most authentic geographic intelligence from other countries.
