FROM a WKSTKKNKK'S view
l*OIXT.
in striking contrast to the anti-j
government-aid utterance* of Publ
isher Boyce. of Chicago, Is the
friendly attitude toward Alaska of
Scott C. Bone, editor of the Seattle
Post- Intelligencer, lioth ot then gont
tlemen were guests of the New Seat
tle Chamber of Commerce on the ex
cursion through Alaska early this
summer, and hud the same opport
unities of observing conditions in
the North, yet they returned to the
States with directly opposite velws
regarding the territory.
Publisher Boyce opposes govern
mciit aid in any form, while Kditor
Bone has placed himself ou record
unreservedly as a govern ment-ai
It may bo said o* Mr. Boyce that
he reflects the narrow Eastern idea
based on little kuowledgo of real
conditions, and In his particular case
an unwillingness to learn when the
opportunity is presented. In stating
that Alaskans are unwilling to ac
cept assistance from the federa
government, he shows all too plain
ly that his opinions were formed
long before he visited the territory
and that the opinions of bona fide
Alaskans count for little with him.
Kditor Bone, on the other hand
is a Westerner through and through
He may have had certain fixed no
t ions retarding th territory befoio
he started North, but he made th
trip with the avowed Intention o
seeing all that there was to see and
learning as much as possible in the
keen observer of conditions and ho
moved about among the people, get
ting his Information first-hand, with
tie more favorably Impressed with
than wheu he started, and thor
oughly convinced that In federal aid
lies the only hope of full develop
When Kditor Bone returned "to
Seattle he gave voice to his impres
sions through the columns of the
Post Intelligencer, concluding hi
six column article with the follow
ing paragraph, in which he summnr
ized the results of his observations
in the Northland:
"Alaska ar.d Alaskan waters are
wonderful ? truly wonderful. Thel
magnitude is overwhelming ; thel
Scenic splendors beyond description
Of the mineral resources of the ter
ritory the world has as yet but av
erage knowledge. The difficulties I
the way of the development of the
country arc great ? very great. Kv
en with I'ncle Sam's aid in solving
the problem of transportation, which
should bo forthcoming; promiitly and
sonorously, Alaska will not bo op
enod up fully for many days. Uu
dovolopmont is sure. A Goethals Is
needed in the emergency. A work is
to be done in Alasku bigger than
that of Panama. Give Alaska a Go
1 ethals, with the power of the nutlon
1 ul government behind hiiu, to build
' railroads aud make tho wealth of
| the territory uvailuble aud accessible,
' and simplify tho laud and mineral
laws, so that the pioneer spirit now
, dormant will bo restored aud prom
oted, then Alaska will come Into her
own ? her dreams come true. And If
Woodrow Wilson's administration
shall do this or start the construct
ive work. It will be an achievement
that will endue forever."
The Fairbanks experiment farm is
no experiment. This is one trouble
with It. It is a source of complulnt
on the part of private farmers that
It does not confine Its activity to
experiment, especlaly In ruislng of
potatoes. The market for home
grown potatoes Is steadily growing,
nnd the demand for Outside potatoes
Is steadily diminishing. But It take*
time to build up any kind of a mar
ket, and until the demand for a
product clearly exceeds the supply
it is not fair for the government,
with Its unlimited resources, to en
ter the market in competition with
private farmers. It is certainly u
poor way to encouroge private farm
ing. the very object for which an
??xperlment station should exist. ?
