'Dle testimony further demon- held I strates the fact that should the Govern- 1- 3‘ 3 ment not undertake and do this work. it ‘- : cannot be done. " Therefore. the question involved m the lbill was whether Alaska shall belong to -â€"â€"‘ the people of the United States and its i resources developed for the benefit of 1 those people and for the people living in â€" : in Alaska, or whether Alaska shall belong neat : to the Guggenheim-Morgan Syndicate to b m ‘ be developed by and for them alone. r The bill having passed, the real de- : velopment of this vast territory is bound 1 to follow. The population of the ter- ritory will rapidly increase. The people .of the Pacific Coast will be enabled to [procure good coal at reasonable prices. The riches of Alaska will be obeerved in lthe highest sense for they will be put to 1the most beneficial use of the greatest l possible number of people. Washingtory D, C In passing the bin, Congress has de- clared for the public interest an Image private monopoly. A careful study of the testimony sub mitted to the Committees on Territories l°f both the Senate and the House must lead to the conclusior that the Alaska_ Syndicate now controls the railroad situa- l tion in Alaska and thus. holding the key, l they control the resources of Alaska. and éthey will continue to do so untIl our 5Gov ernment accomplishes the railroad Not succeeding in their projects. this Syndicate decreed that if it should not build these roads and get these resources, nobody should. Attempts of others to acquire property and build transporatioh lines were met with force by the Syri- dicate. The history of railroad buildin’g in Alaska. with a few exceptions, is a history of lawlessness. high finance and chicanery. During this time powerful private in- terests have gone to great lengths in their effort to get contml of the country. The Alaska Syndicate. composed largely of the house of Morgan Company, and the Guggenheims. have cnnstrucied some railroad and tried to get Control of all available public coal landsi These efinrts have succeu‘ed in part and failed in part. The laws were grossly violated and this led in a halt on the inroads be- ing made Ion the public property by these private interests. The developement of Alaska has been at a standstill for years. Conservationists on the one hand have urged legislation opening this vast country. with proper safeguards tothe public, while on the other hand special interests together with some "good men who believe that the natural resources of this country belong to the man who is willing to develop them, have opposed this legislation and are opposed to any legislation that will not place these great resources in private hands tor private enrichment alone. Between these two. Alaska has been caught and held fast. There were two great contending in I teres'ts involved in the consideration of this legiSlationâ€"private interests and thel public interest. Consen ationists contend- ‘ ed that these great resources should be I released in the public interest and that . the present owners shall continue to dwnl and control them while the opposition i contended that the privilege of supplying i the key to these resources shall begrant-‘ ed to the private individuals and this‘! privilege shall carry with it the owner- i ship of the entire storehouse and its con- tents. In a recent message to Congress, the President well said that the proposed railroad is the key to the great store- house of this vast territory. Without proper railroad transportation that store house will neverbeunlocked. For whose benefit it shall be unlocked depends wholly upon who holds the key. The bill just passed is based upon the theorv that the owner of the storehouse should hold it. t The Alaska Railroad Bill has passed both Branches'of Congress. As it passed the House on Wednesday, it differed somewhat from the form in which it had previously been passed by the Senate. The principal change made by the House was in eliminating the section proyiding for an issue of bonds. As thus amended. the money for the construction of the railroad is to be made available by direct appropriations which are to be redeemed or repaid by a redemption fund for which the hill provides and into which shall be paid one half of all moneys derived from the lease, sale or disposal of any of the public lands in Alaska. or the coal or mineral therein or the timber thereon and into which fund there shall also be paid the net earnings of the railroad to be constructed. above maintenance charges and operating expenses. It will thus be seen that the resources of Alaska 1 will pay every cent of the cost of build- ing the railroad.
