COMMENTS OF ALASKA PAPERS
Alaska has shown that she is a
good booster for patriotism. She has
boosted for Uncle Sam. Let her show
now that she can boost for Alaska.—
Juneau Empire.
There should be another command
ment added to the original ten for the
benefit of Alaskans. It should be:
“He that taketh his brother’s cache
after it has been lifted shall be pun
ished by continual thirst.”—Douglas
Island News.
Many persons in the States fail to
realize the charm that winter has for
an Alaskan. Ski races, ski jumping,
snowshoeing, races of all kinds, a
tug-of-war, etc., out in the open th*
days before New Year’s seem im
possible in a country the average Uit
lander believes to be ice-bound th*
greater part of the time. But such
is the program Monday arternoon *t
the Post, and when we say that win
ter is the season of the greatest en
iovment in the Northland we sneak
for every red-blooded resident of the
territory.—Valdez Miner.
The express rate on the govern
ment railway line from Seward to An
chorage, a distance of 114 miles, Is
$25 the hundred pounds. The express
rate on the Copper River & North
western railway line, a privately
owred concern, from Cordova to Chit
inr;f a distance of 132 miles, is $5 the
liundre pounds. A federal agency, the
interstate commerce commission, fixes
these rates. It is very pertinent to
ash why higher rates are imposed by
ti'is federal agency on this govern
ment railway than those imposed on a
privately-owned railway system.—An
chorage Times.
There was never a time when there
was greater need for united work for
the development of Alaska than now. ,
This is a readjustment period. 'Peo
ple are coming back to the territory,
and they are bringing others with 1
them. Work that has been suspended
or almost so will be resumed. The
present, year should be one of con
struction, and not one of quarreling
and bickering. This can not he «n
less there is co-operation, and the co
operation should be active and per- j
sistent. Forget everything except ‘
harmonious effort toward the develop
ment Of Alnalfo TTt,_.

IS at hand to put Alaska over the top. I
Let us call forth some of the spirit
that was shown in the great Liberty
loan and Red Cross drives and utilize
it in a drive for Alaska.-Juneau Em
pire.
When Alaska makes a request for
the government to aid in the develop
ment of her resources she is not mak- ,
ing an unreasonable demand, but is
simply making a plea that is based
on what is due her in all justice. She
is merely asking for her just dues. ^
There are two sound and just rea
sons for making the claim that she is t
merely petitioning for her just dues.
In the first place, most of the terri
tory’s taxable wealth has gone Out
side. Practically all of the original
money that was made in the early
days of the gold rush has been taken
out of the country since that time by
the men who made it, and Is now tax
able wealth in the States. If it had'
remained in the territory It would be
subject to taxation here, and would
thus furnish the territory with her ,
own funds for any such purpose.—
Fairbanks Citizen. ‘
