THE DALLY : ALASKAN'S CON
CERlf
The Whit?hor?? Star says the White
Pass rates do not concern tbc Daily
Alaskan and that it should say nothing
about them. The Star is wrong. One
of the essentia) things in the develop
ment of any country is cheap transpor
tation and Skagway'a future depends in
a large measure on the country that is
being developed in the Canadian north.
Everything that concerns, the welfare
of the northconcerns the. Daily Alaskan.
What the Daily Alaskan has said
aod what the Star has been unable to
successfully dispute, is that the White
Pass freight and uassenger tariffs are
being investigated by a competent rail
road commission: that the people have
?very right to expect that if the rates
can be reduced without disaster to the
railroad owners the reduction will be
made, and that, therefore, there is no
need of attempting to arouse the pas
sions of the people when nothing but
discord can result from it.
Tnere . is no need of creating
bitterness and geting people, all of whom
are Interested in the developement of
the country, in such a mood that they
will be at swords' points and working
at cross purposes for ? years to come
when absolutely no good thing can be
served by it.
When the railroad commission gets
through with this investigation, if the
Star shall feel that it was derelict and
failed in the performance of its duty or
was corrupted, it will be intirely
within the provinee of enterprising
journalism if it will present the facts
to a candid world ? but even then it
should present FACTS.
So far as concerns the intimation that
the Daily Alaskan has been told to say
something in defense of the railroad
we will say only that it is without a
scintilla of fact as a basis. The Daily
Alaskan has interviewed no railroad
official except to ascertain
that the commissioners are making a
thorough investigation.
One word more. The Daily Alaskan
la owned by those who make it, and its
pinions and influence are not for sale.
