THE CONTROLLER BAY MATTER

Concerning the withdrawal Of a
tract of land from the forest reserve
adjacent to Controller Bay, Alaska, to
give the inducement for much needed
development Of transportation, and
about which the sensation mongers
have attempted to show improper and
discredltable action on the part of
President Taft that executive has
sent clear, comprehensive aud
vigorous message to congress showing
what action was taken there and why,
and he manner in which it has been
nisre presented by his political
enemi es. We publish synopais of
she 10 essage upon the first page of to-
day IS Herald.
Outside Of coterie Of politicians
who hope to advance their own in
terets by continually attempting to
cast suspicion upon all acts of the
administration relative to Alaskan
development, the country is in ac-
cord with the presidents course and
gives him credit acting in the best
lnterest Of the nation and for the
needs Of the people Of Alaska.
AS is we'll said by the Chicago
Tribune: Tt is not real conser vatism-
sit is foolish waste to retard the con-
sentative development Of Alaska by
restri ctions having no relation to the
necessary conditions Of development.
You can't do market gardening
several thousand miles from a market.
You can mine coal by the scuttle.
Capital must be assured Of returns in
proportion to the risks -
Behind Controller bay is a terri
cory requiring railroads for its
development. On the statute books
are laws protecting the water front
from monopolization A railroad com
pany asked for the right to acquire
aand there for a terminal This right
seems to have been given by the
government after a careful examina-
tion, and reservations Of alternate
strips were made which the govern
ment entirely controls

Uncle sam In Bad Company.

To the Editor OF the Evening Star:
am surprised to see hat Uncle Sam.
the big. good-natured fellow that lie
usually is, should try to take water
from our bright little. tight little State.
Let us hope hat there is no foundation
for the report. Sometimes. however.
even big, good-natured fellows need a
little calling down. or trimming to
use III slang of the day, and II Uncle
Sam is really getting busy on water
diversion from this State he ought to
get his from the courts.
1t is further reported and pretty gen.
orally believed that this move is in
stigated by the Hudson Water Com
pany, a subsidiary of the East Jersey
Waite Company, whose efforts TO fur
nish Staten Island with Jersey water
are part of the records of our courts.
If that Is so, I feel sorry for "U. s."
and a it that he Is in most unworthy
company. In any event the fight for
the states rights will be most bitter.
