CHITINA, Oct. 9—Last Thursda
■ evening Mr. Falcon Joslln addressee
~ the few people left in Chitina, on th
subject of Transportation, and in ;
very able and interesting manner
showed the growth of transportatioi
in the United States from the turnpike
road, to the present magnlficlent rnll
road systems.
He showed how this had all beei
brought about by private enterprise
but stated that he growth had stop
i ped by reason or harsh and uncon
I sidered legislation. He wes verj
I frankly opposed to Covernemen
[Ownership, but stated that owing t<
| the conditions he had mentioned i
was impossible to get private capita
io go any further, so he had don<
everything in his power to assist ii
bringing about the present Govern
ment Hoad now under construction.
He could not see how any other routt
( than the Copper River had been select
ed, unless It was fear of the politics
demagogues who would have beer
only too glad to charge the admintstra
tlon with taking a white elephant of!
tne nanas or tne uuggenneims, oui
maintained that eventually either thl?
administration or some other would
have to take this road if they were
to give Government ownership a fail
chance. He spoke of the excellent
work done by the Chamber of Com
merce of Cordova through it's Pres?
dent, Mr. Hazelett, and admitted thai
they had compiled facts and figure;
reagrding the possible tonnage of thli
road that were a revelation to him
He bade the people be of good ctiee:
and predicted a great future ror Chlti
na, and still greater for Cordova wfilcl
he said could not escape being tin
home of one or more great smelter?
He expressed the hope and convictjoi
that a very short time would see u
relieved of the evils of being adminis
tered by a bunch of bureacrats a
Washington, and that a Board witl
headquarters in Alaska and compose
l of Alaskans would soon be attendtn
to all matters pertaining to the cour
| try. His address was thoroughly er
j joyed by those present.
1 The A. B's reorganizad for the wir
I1 ter least Wednesday night with a fat
attendance of members. Next Wet
| nesday the officers for the ensuin
I year will be placed in nomination.
The A. B's gave a moderately sue
cessful dance on Saturday night.
McCarthy is rejoicing in a new Con
missioner in the person of Mr. W
R. Faddiss and many of us hope tha
the Judge will “Be not weary in wel
doing. ”
Chitina has a legitimate greivanc
against Cordova. When Chittna wa
deprived of her licenses in a manne
that makes us blush when we hea
the term "free country,” Cordovi
could see nothing but her own gain li
the situation, and neither newspape
nor individual raised their voice ii
|
£ protest although there are gentlemei
Ii living in Cordova who have induce;
men to put their little savings of i
life time in Chitina real estate. Nov

■ If Cordova Is put In the dry column
, j next year |e the same manner that
! Chi'lna was this it will serve her
■
right because illegal acts of officials
left unchallenged become precedents
which seem to govern everything In
the courts.
