An editorial in the Seattle 8thF»

j Seattle, Washington:
I “The upual halt-baked criticisms
!of Alaska are . under way in pon
I gress. Experts frpm southern aiates
| are talking about the white north
and our frozen territory and bo
forth. There is suggestion for an
investigation of the whole affair.
Congress has only 16 lnyeaUgatjions
under way, and another ope Will al
law a few congressmen a nice ten
day trip to Skagway thle summer in
order to find out all about it
/Alaska’s main trouble Is that
Alaska’s wealth has been use<^ to
develop everything but Ataska. Blow
many Alaska millions are there in
Seattle real estate,, and building*?
And in Tacoma and San Francisco?
How much Alaskan sold has gone.
to Southern California to develop
y'-tm
orange groves?
At the outside, the United States
Treasury has pUt $.200,000,000 in
to Alaska, figuring in the. Alaska
railroad at $70,000,000 and the pur
chase price at.$7,200,000. To date.
Alaska has produced about $1,250,
000,000. In other words, every $20.
invested in Alaska, produced $126.,
which is pretty good interest.
The North has produced, in gold
along, nearly twice as much as the
total invested. Ana most of that
gold has taken unto itself wings
and deserted Alaska.
If Alaska’s new wealth is used,
for a few years to develop Alaska,
the territory will prosper—and so
will Seattle, the gateway to the
North.”
The above is an indirect boost
for Seattle by a direct kiss on Alas
ka’s cheek, but it’s so good picture
of what’s going on that we take
pleasure in running it.
