The Senator's Explanation
Fairbanks Times

Juneau March 19-At the beginning of the first session of the territorial legislature the two houses indorsed the report of the Alaska railroad commission.
 The Alaska Northern proposed to build line to Fairbanks and convince the Presi- dent that sufficient funds were available, provided the coal would be mined by the government or opened to development by others and the road given the hauling of the coal for the navy on contract, as was approved by the former secretary of the interior. The Seward proposition was re- garded as satisfactory if it was acceptable to the administration, subec to the inter state commerce regulations. In the event that the fear of establishing the principle .of government ownership should have caused the defeat of the bill, there still would have remained a chance for rail road from Seward
 If the principle of government ownership had been considered as involved, the bill would have been defeated as is indicated by many speeches which were made during the consideration of the bill, and which appear in the Congressional Record
 The letter which was written to Secre- tary Lane says that transportation is the key to the situation in Alaska At almost any cost, give it any way you see fit, was the way the question was put to the cabi- net member.
 But give it as my opinion that the construction of the lines a3 now suggested will prove a strong argument against gov ernment ownership, as the road beyond the coal fields and mountains will never prove 8 success.
 I advocate the construction of two short lines to the coal fields direct, and trunk line from the southernmost port at Haines inside of Mount St. Elias and the Alaska range to Fairbanks That route is naral- leled by promising mineral ranges It dces not merely cut across country as 1t iS planned to do.
 Wick, Jostin, Ballaine and Daniel Gug genheim all advocate government owner ship. Why? RODEN

notwithstanding and we venture to say that the vast majority of the senators, even when they signed that document, knew very we'll that they so favored it; that hardly one of them would go before the people and tell them that they were op- posed to the government ownership idea. And because this is so, because they were not representing the people of Alaska when last April they signed that document we can see very well that from the very start of their legislative duties they were pre- pared to betray and did betray the people who elected them in this respect That communication is stamped with the seal of the corporations if not vislbly, yet invlsibly and nmistakably.

Discusses the Letter
Nome Industrial Worker)

The action of the senators was evidently an official one, as the superscription and text would imply. Yet of that official act, until the matter is thus given publicity, 'the people of Alaska" concerning whom the senators spoke, and for whom they spoke with all the infallibilty of pontifcal pronouncement ex cathedra, know nothing and knew nothing at all about it. On the contrary, with hardly an exception the papers of the country seemed to be unit in supporting a government or any other railroad, and surely none considered such a question as government owned railroad "pernicious," to use hte language of the presiding senator. The vast ma jority of the people support the govern ment ownership of railroads, the senators

As to the Explanation
Fairbanks Times, March 23


 While we are not prepared to say that Senator Henry Roden will be able to ex plain satisfactorily to Farbanksans his req sons for opposing government ownership of railroads in Alaska his statement, which appears elsewhere in this issue of the Times indicates that he is returning to Alaska full of confidence in his ability to set himself right with his constituents His statement to the Times is all right as far as it goes He will find many Alaskans ready to agree with him that the Haines route offers the greatest opportunities of development and no one can deny the fact that we were ready to accept almost any old kind of a proposition from congress, so long as it promised relief from present conditions; but he fails to offer any kind of an explanation for informing the secretary of the interior that Alaskans are opposed to the principle of government ownership. That looks bad on the fact of it, and it is one point Alas kans will insist upon having explained, for neither Senator Roden nor any of his col leagues had any reason to believe that such a statement was correct

(t alrbankS llmeS, March liJ
 According to wires received here yester day from Juneau, Senator Henry Roden, who has been Outside all winter, is at the territorial capital en route to the Interior In the newspapers of the coast town the scribes have devoted number of articles to the work done by the legislator while he was at Washington. He reports that he Franklin K Lane of the department of the interior, in which he urged the cabinet member to ask congress to grant Alaska absolute home rule rights.
 According to the Juneau dispatches, the senator expects to visit Valdez and Cor dova on his way to the Interior, and he will reach Fairbanks the early part of next month
 At the meeting of the Fairbanks Igloo of Pioneers held on Monday evening, an attempt was made to oust Senator Roden from membership, but on account of an irregularity in the proceedings, the matter was continued until next week.
 number of friends of the senator are anxious to hear him explain the position he took on the Alaska railroad bill and it Is probable that some of them will wire him at Juneau today to ask for his side of the case

END-of-the-summer millinery for those
IL who are able to indulge themselves
in hats Yhich illustrate the seasons, Is
shown in greater variety this year
than ever before in the memory of the
most observant of milliners. The poet
celebrates the coming and going of
the year in verse and women note it's
passing seasons lovingly in their ap.
parel.
Three exquisite hats are pictured
here, one of them from the most re-
nowned establishment in Paris, and
the other two, in every way as excel
lent, originated in America. They are
especially appropriate for wear at the
end of the summer and through the
coming fall
In. the first hat straw shape is
decorated with very heavy ribbon
laid across the crown and tied at the
left side at the shoulder. This ribbon
is very heavy and soft. There is a
wreath of velvet plums with velvet
foliage and small white berries about
the crown. This hat may be developed
in several colors, but in bronze or
purple shades and in bronze-browns
will be found most beautiful
The second hat is combination OF
straw braid and velvet which may be
developed in any of the rich and quiet
colors now fashionable. 1t is remark
ably simple in design. The round
crown is covered with velvet, and the
outline of the brim is emphasized by a
French fold of velvet put on with

old reliable staple colors, dark blue,
brown, gray, and the dark reds make
the best choice for children. The
capes are lined either with plain mate
rial or with stripes or plaids.
When the home dressmaker under.
takes to make cape she should pro-
vide herself with pattern in order
to get the adjustment over the Shout
ders as it should be. Some capes
flare more than others, also, and the
finishing at the neck varies, as do the
methods of fastening.
It would be difficult to find more
desirable model than the one pictured
here. 1t is so managed that it may
be fastened up about the throat, when
required, by buttons and loops on the
under SIDE Straps crossing in front
hold it in place when it is worn open
at the front, as shown in the picture.
In keeping with the fad for suit
hats, caps to match capes or other
wraps keep pace with the times. The
cap shown in the picture is a type
illustrating this fashion. Patterns
for this and for Tams and for sim
pie cloth hats are sold by all stand
ard paper pattern companies.
