ALASKA COAL SHOULD BE DEVELOPED.

It is admittedly that Alaska possessed of great tura wealth in all those commodities that to make commonweah that the people of Alaska ready and to invest their me energies and money the deve opment of the country and the upbudng of the common wealth that the withdrawal from entry of the coal and oil lands and the general policy of the government toward Alaska whereby people denied the of the coal and oil in the development of the other great of the country wholly responsible for the present amentabe conditions and
 present leasing bill is not workable and offers little relief.
 Alaska populated by the character of and who have in former times reclaimed and developed the western and territories of the Union Brave energetic onerprsng and They Alaska believ ing that the government would extend to them the same couragemen protection and assistance that had been the pioneers of other ays that laws would speedily be pro vded under which they might build up homes and fortunes in the country with the hardshps and labor cessary involved in the undertakings that they would be credited by the government with honesty of purpose and that opportunity would be given them open and develop this country.
 To understand the confidence with which the pioneers Alaska inspired and which prompted them undertake the subcton of this country has but examine the his tory of the early days Oregon and Washington and study the liberal provisions of the Oregon DOnatiOn many other laws provided for the protection and the settlers Capital of all kinds received every nducement invest m those territories Immense grants of lands made to promote the construction of railroads into the country deed everything to encourage and nothing to discourage done to promote the settlement and substantial growth velOpment of the country
 What a contrast this liberal and eminently just and sen sibe policy is the present policy of the government toward Alaska and it's people Here the hardshps and difficulties be overcome much greater than encountered in the western territories Yet assistance has been given Alaska enterprise or improvement and who have invested millions the country depending upon the development there of for return upon such investment characterized as thieves and the profitable operation of the railroads has been rendered impossible by the tying the coal lands the consequent cessation of the development country upon which the roads must rely for traffic and business
 When compare the present condition Alaska and its people with what it would surely have become under wise and liberal policy become indeed desperate and dscour aged and are in the humor to welcome any form of legislation and change in the policy of the government that promises measure of relief however small or inadequate.
 We want coal lands opened that all of our can be developed and thus result in greater perty and happiness for the people of Alaska
