THE TROUBLE WITH ALASKA
The trouble with Alaska is that
it has been governed to de„th. ac
cording to the view of Thomas B.
Drayton, as expressed in a state
ment made recently to a Seattle
newspaperman, on the occasion of
the Sewar dreformer’s visit to the
Outside to confer w:th Henry Ford
on matters pertaining to Alaska.
In discussing Alaska's business
stagnation and gradual decline in
population, Drayton said: ••Therc
are two causes, the second being
an outgrowth of the first. The first
cause is forcing so-called conserva
tion on Alaska. The term “conser
vation” in Alaska means a mess of
impracticable, unworkable and en
tirely visionary fads. The second
cause leading up to Alaska’s in
dustrial and social collapse is the '
unsupportable burden of political job '
holders which has grown out of the,
so-called conservation policy.
"The Cummins bill now pending
in Congress, makes it mandatory
that a Government-owned line of
steamers operate in conjunction
with the Government railroad in
Alaska I am opposed to Govern
ment ownership and operation of
any industry a private citizen can I
own and operate, but in this case
we have already sunk $52,000,000
in the railroad scheme, and we
might as well face the fact now as
later, that the investment is a total
loss unless we go on. We must be
connected with Seattle at payable
rates, or we can never do any busi
ness ir. the North worth mention
ing.”
STEEL AT MILE 354 TODAY;
GAP IS ONLY 13 MILES NOW
Captain .Tone- and his tans of
“speed hags’1 reached Camp S34
today, thus narrowing the gap be
tween steel to the it: igHificai t 0 —
tar.ee of 13 mile.- Barring accidents,
the gap should be closed inside of
two weeks, after which the work of
erecting the Riley Creek bridge can
be taken in hand. Steel for the big
structure is already enroute from
the East, by way of Panama canal.
and will be rushed to the front just
as soon as it arrives at Anchorage.;
Reports from the Canyon district
, state that the work of extending
steel to Riley from the north, has
been completed, where the track is
ready to be linked with the coast end
of the railroad with the golden spike
wnich Anchorage has suggested be
placed there.
With the extension of the steel
to Riley, comes announcement of a
change in train schedules, the plan
being to operate two trains a week,
leav:ng Riiey on Tuesday and Sat
urday mornings and connecting at
Nenana with the Fairbanks train.
A bulletin issued recently by Col.
Mears announces that the change
wall go into effect on November 7.
but it is not known positively if
the schedule will be revised at that
time.
■ It is possible that no change will
, be made until the return of Train
' master Cunningham, who is at pres
; ent at Fairbanks.

When the recipe says “milk” use
Carnation. It is the most eco
nomical milk for cooking and is
remarkably convenient. One half
water, one half Carnation is the
correct formula for cooking and
drinking. For desserts and in cof
fee, use rich, creamy Carnation
undiluted. Buy this good milk
regularly from your grocer.
