GOOD BOOST FOR VALDEZ
 BY MIR. ALFRED B. HE'S

ed the harbor of Valdez as the most northerly open all the year round port in the world, and these facts were indorsed by the United States senate committee which visited Alaska in 1904.
 Resurrection bay, at the head of which lies Seward, is also a fine har- Dor and a splendid townsite should the government desire to inauguratc a real estate boom. Long before the existance of the Matanuska coal fields was suspected, tho railroad was started by the Seward townsite boomers, and on the discovery of coal the road was extended across the kenai peninsula, where it again emerges on tide water at the head of Cook inlet. As a great point has been made of the stragetic strength of Resurrection bay, the fact of the defenseless position of it's rear may have escaped observation. The Sew ard railroad has been partially con- pleted for seventy-on miles at an ex- pense of $63.OOO a mile. To put it in

While the greatest need of Alaska is transportation, to which the coal question is of secondary importance and although Alaskans appreciate Secretary Fishers efforts in this direction, they desire that the presi, dent should give further considera. ton to the feasibility of the route proposed from a commercial, econo. mical and stragetic standpoint before deciding upon Seward as the termin, us of a government-owned railroad Prince William sound is inducted by many inlets, bays and fiords, and of, fers a choice of several routes. That leading from Valdez was chosen by Maj. Abercrombie's expedition as the most adaptable for the military trail which was built from Valdez to Eagle on the Yukon river. The Al aska road commission also selected the Valdez route for the government wagon road, which extends to Fair banks.

condition for a train of coal to run ov. CT 1t would cost $1O,0O0 a mile more. as much of 1t will have to be rebuilt, making total of $73.00O a mile. At this rate the road to the coal fields. 1855 miles approximately. would cost 313. 100000, whereas by the Valdez route ito the coal, 145 miles, the cost as estimated by competent engineers would be $25.oO0 mile, or $3.625. .0O0.
 Valdez to Fairbanks.
 The same comparison Is shown, when estimating the cost of a gener- al trunk line to open up the interior of Alaska. The distance from Sew ard to Fairbanks, which would prob ably be the objective point of the road, is 49O miles, through d compar- atively unknown territory, while the distance from Valdez to the same point is $40 miles over a we!l-built wagon road, along which the mail is carried in four horse stages, and is settled more or less by ranchcrs and miners for much of the entire length.
 It is because of this difference in mileage between Seward and Valdez and the coal deposits and Fairbanks, that the people of Central Alaska fla vor tho Flood bill now before the committee on territories, asking the appointment of competitor commits sion to investigate the various routes and report on the shortest, most feas- ible, and economical line both to the coal fields and the Yukon river. Should this bill pass, the commission will find that Port Valdez is the most northerly port in Alaska open all the year round, free from ice, is land locked and can be fortified cas- fly and effectively, with no danger of an enemy stealing in by the back door and cutting the railroad in half. The entrance to the harbor is through the narrow channel, into a body of water twelve miles long by three miles wide. On
 
 back are located thousands of mining claims representing a prosperous in dustry which is rapidly coming to the front as gold producer. At the head of the bay is situated the town of Valdez. one of the most populous and prosperous towns in Alaska.
 Cable Services
 1t is the terminus of the govern ment cable and land lines and the coast terminus of the great system of military wagon roads. It is also the headquarters of the third judic- ial district, and Fort Liscum lies just across the bay. The route to the interior enters the Keystone fourteen miles from Valdez, crossing Thompson Pass at an alti- tude of 2,70O feet, and thence into the Copper river valley, along which new mining camps are rapidly form ing and becoming prominent com By this route the coal fields can be reached in 145 miles and Fairbanks in $40 miles and 800 miles over the Seward route.
 Engineers have repeatedly survey ed the Valdez line and none of them have placed the cost of construction at more than $25,O0O a mile, and it is said that tunnel could be Iored through the Thompson Pass on a watergrade for less than the cost of the Miles glacier bridge on the Copper River railroad.-Washingt D. c.

Decision in Case in Which Coercion
Was Alleged.
Employers of labor in this state
can discharge any person for
ahliation with labor union organiza-
tions, but no coercion to make them
quit the union can be practiced, &C.
cording to ruling Of the state su.
preme court.
The case involved was an appeal
of Sheriff Orin Daniels of Polk county
from an order of the district court
dfscharging J. w. Smith and L. R.
Knebel, Great Northern superintend-
ents at Crookston, who we're arrested
last February for alleged violation Of
the labor laws.
It was alleged in the complaint that
as a condition of retaining his posi-
ton Carl Swanson, member of the
Brotherhood Of Railway Carmen Of
America, was not to remain q men,
ber of the labor organization.
The supreme court declares that un-
der decision Of the United States
supreme court. which has been inter-
preted by every other court in tho
country, the oRense complained of in
the Crookston case Is not criminal.

only a corrupt practices act and state
wide primary and add to the list a
bill increasing the gross earnings rail-
road tax, if passed by the house. 1t
will take Favorable action on the fed
eral constitutional amendments pro-
viding for the income tax and election
of United States senators by direct
vote.
In return the house will turn down
reapportionment and offer no further
bills to the senate. The two bodies
will then be together on and will sue
cessfully turn out only the following
list of bills and adjourn:

practices act; gross earnings increase;

at ! Joint session Of house and senate.
II . brief statement Of the needs for
tho three measures mentioned in the
call for the session, . statewide pri-
mary bill. stringent corrupt practices
act and reapportionment bill. In ad.
dillon the governor asks the legisla.
ture to ratify the proposed income tax
and direct election Of United States
senators, both being amendments to
the federal constitution, and to pro.
vide for congressional reapportion-
ment Of the state.
The governor demands the extern
sion Of the primary bill to all state
Offices. He says that the primary law
eliminates the domination Of the spe-
cial interests by placing the people
who are the source of all political
power-in direct control" He makes
no suggestion as to second choice or
other features of the bill.
In brief paragraph devoted to the
need for a new corrupt practices act
the governor says that the present act
is inadequate. -..j
The most vigorous part of the mes
sage is the discussion of the reappor-
tionment question. Here the governor
quotes from the state constitution and
declares that the refusal of the special
session to provide for reapportion-
ment would be a deliberate defiance
of the right of the people to govern
themselves. -
