than a survey. A wharf had been *
built at Cordova and the right of j '
way cleared across a level peninsn'ai
to the Copper river ? eiioiteh to show
ethers?
".Vow, the nub of the whole matte. i i
!s that many influential representa- f
lives of th > tlucRenhe'n s went be- (
fore all committees considering the |
Alaska bills and opposed the tov
ernnu-nt-aid proposition. saying:
'See. we are building a railroad wi'h '
cur own mMtcy: we do not need or '
ask aid; why should it be pi von to
others?' ,
"Now. the rub of the whole mat- ,
ter may be covered in a few words.
If any benefit accrues to Alaska
from the existence of the Cuepenhein ?
load we already have it ? that road ?
is built. With the twenty millions j
proposed to be handed over to the ,
owners the proposed road from Ha'n {
westerly to the Tanana can lie built.
What Alaska wants is a road that
will open up the country. This much
it deserves for its own sake. If con
ditions require the development of
the coal it can be done also and at
much less cost, than twenty millions."
