RAILROAD LOBBY MAKING
 LOSING FIGHT ON VALDEZ

(COnlinucd from page 1)
 bill introduced in the senate, as coming from the committee on territories of the senate. It will "bl0w up' as the SulZer bill "blew up,' as soon as q little cold air is turned .On. It is too trans parent to deceive long. It was prepared by a committee of the American Mining Congress, and was to have been known as the Mining Congress bill, but at the last moment if was changed to a senate committee bill. This com mittee of the American Mining Congress did not make it's ap- pearance here, at least, I did not hear of them, until the Flood bill supplanted the Sulzer bill. They then remembered that the Amer lcan Mining Congress, away last September or October, delegated them to look after the people of Alaska and to be exceedingly so- fcitous for the welfare of the Alaska people. The committee seems to have taken a short nap from the adjournment of the American Mining Congress until the Seattle lobby retired from Washington, and some of the committee came from the same direction the retiring lobby took on it's departure. The lobby re- tired after the Sulzer bill "blew up." l do not assert that there is any connection between the retiring lobby and this commit tee of the American Mining Con- gress, with it's lone thousand mile bill" But I cannot under stand why the committee of the American Mining Congress did not come to the surface sooner, in view of the fact that the wei fare of the Alaska people was committed to it's care away last fall.
 The sentiment in favor of the government building railroads in Alaska is not as strong as it was earlier in the session. They are beginning to feel that the Cana dian policy of government aid would do more to build up a new country where the success of a railroad depends much on min ing development, which the gov ernmeDt would not undertake, and the colonizing of the territory adjacent to the railroads. Tn an- other week something definite will develop on this subject.
 The bill for territorial legis- lature will pass the house next Wednesday.
