JUSTIFY DAILY ALASKAN'S
POSITION
la Attempting to justify its campaign
to arouse the bitter passions of its read
ers against the White Pass, the White
horse Star says the Fairbanks papers
have taken up the tight against the
road. To support the assertion it
quotes Dawson telegraphic dispatches
in the Fairbanks Daily Miner which
'?Judte Killiam, chairman of the
railroad commission said before leav
ing that the commission's decision
will be rendered in time to govern
next year's traffic rates over the White
Pafs system. He also said that this is
the first inquiry tnto alt the tariffs and
system of any railroad that has been
made by the commission and may in
volve a wide precedent.''
Aod:
"The traffic expert of the commission
will stop at Skagway and examine the
books of the White Pass company to
determine the cost of construction of
the road, its maintenance cost and the
profits of the system."
There you are ! Both dispatches jus
tify the position of the Daily Alaskan.
They indicate that the railroad uom
misaion is making a thorough, expert
investigation, and that there is no need
for the people to follow the Star into
hysterics.
The Juneau Dispatch, after wobbling
back and forth for some time, now says
it is the duty of th? people of Juneau
to back up the delegates in congress
and to assist them in every way. That
is right. It is a sentiment that will do
to tie to and stay with until the end.
The union labor party of California
has endorsed Theodore A. Bell, the
democratic candidate for governor.
This is the first time the la'wr pany of
San Francisco has repudiated Abe Ruef.
Ruef has tried to deliver the party to
the Southern Pacific but it refused to
be delivered.
GOOD PROGRESS
AI WHITEHORSE
W. M. Brewer, the ore buyer for the
Tyee smelter of Ladysmitn, B. C., and
mining expert, who left for Ketchikan
yesterday after a visit at Whiteborse,
says the outlook for the copper interests
of the Rapids City is better than it ever
has been. Said he:
"Byron White is giving Whitehorse
what it lacked in the past. He is a
mining man who has made a success of
his business. In the Sandon district of
British Columbia, where he is the prin
cipal owner of the Slocan Star, he has
demonstrated bis ability to develop a
mine, be is associated with mining
men and capital? real mining capital,
not the kind that is for investment is
wild cats, but the kind that is seeking
producing properties ? will follow his
lead. Mr. White is working in his
practical way and is developing a real
mine at Whitehorse. He has put in the
only outsiee capital ever invested at
that place. Others will follow, and in a
short time Whitehorse will be among
the regular copper producers of the
country."
