SKAGWAY AND RAILROAD
The Juneau Record-Miner is trying
so explain the activity of Skagway on
the questiou of territorial government
by saying- that it is for the purpose of
attracting attention away from the
Alaskan railroad question. It reasons
that the White Pass railroad is opposed
to the construction of a railroad from
the Alaskan coast to the Yukon and
that this opposition has * made the
people of Skagway desirous that the
question of self-government be kept to
the front as the paramout issue in
Alaskan affairs.
How plainly is this a man of straw
may i>e understood when it is consid
ered that the White Pass people are.
themselves, building a railroad from
the coast to the Yukon, and the people
vi Skagwav are advocating the election
as delegate of Gov. Swineford, who
gave the y.tv strongest kind of support
to the proposition of government aid to
Alaskan railroads. Gov. Swineford
made a speech before the house com
mittee in which he said chat, while he
came to Washington to aid in securing
selfgovernment, for his people, he would
fee: satisfied with the result of Lis
trip if he could contribute to the pas
>.t^e of the bill granting aid in the con
struction of railroadsthrough Alaska,
lie advocated the Louring bill, giving
help to all the new roads, the one sup
ported by the president.
No. the people of the Westward may
lie assured that they will get more
help from Skagway in getting aid for
their proposed rairoads than they ever
will from Juneau. Last fall and winter
while the ?eople of this city were
assisting in sending a delegate to
Wasnicgton to ask for such aid, among
other hings, Juneau was sulking and
mak'ng wry faces. That fact should
counts for more than words.

The contention has been advanced
that before the people of Alaska should
ask for self-government they should
unite 10 secure government aid for
railroads from the coast to the Yukon,
improvements for the Nome harbor
and other things. The position is not
sound for the reason that there is
nothing in conflict with the two propo
sitions. In fact with a territorial leg
islature to memoralize congress and to
give additional emphasis to the desires
of the people, congress would be more
likely to aid railroads than it will be
with on'y a delegate in the house. The
government did cot refuse to aid the
transcontinental railroads because they
passed through duly organized
states and territories, and it would not
do sj in the case of A'.&ska for that
cause.

Haines, June 4? (Special Correspon

has one of the largest and finest gar

Several years ago the colonel planted
some rose bushes and fruit trees on his
homestead claim. This year nearly
all the fruit trees ate in full bloom.
The colonel is as proud of his garden as
is a little boy with his first red top
boots. No doubt but that at some fut

the states with choice and delicious
northern fruits.
