that of Col. Roosevelt" declared the
speaker, who found nothing to criti-
else in the career of the American.
Referring to Roosevelt's actions
during the war, the secretary declared
that, with the outbreak of the war in
1914, one of the most glorious periods
in the life. of the former President

RAPID PROGRESS
SEEN IN ALASKA
Completion of Last Link OF
Railroad Expected to De-
velop Territory.

With the completion of the last link
in the Alaskan railroad, built by the
government to open up the vast
mineral deposits in interior Alaska
and make profitable farming in the
valley of the Tenana river, develop
ment of the largest territory owned
by the United States outside of the
forty-eight states is expected to be
rapid. To complete the government
railroad, which was begun several
the administration of Secretary of
the Interior Fall. there now remains
only the construction of bridge at
Riley creek to give train service from
Seward to Fairbanks-both well
known names in the gold rush of
'ss along the trail where hundreds
perished in the rigorous northern
climate.
Falr. Visit Given Up.
Secretary Fall has not yet visited
Alaska. He expected to be able to
visit the territory last summer, and
at that time there was talk or a
visit to the United States most north
ern possession by the President and
a party of members of Congress.
Urgent legislative matters came up
for consideration and the visit was
abandoned.
In the meantime the Secretary of
the Interior has taken two trips into

vast projects, under his direction,
through the reclamation service and
the national park service. He hopes
to be able to take the Alaska trip next
summer, at which time he will confer
with Gov. Scott c. Bone regard
ing certain changes in the territorial
government which the governor deems
necessary to develope the territory.
Plans Should BE Worked Out.
Completion of the railroad, Gov.
Bone says in his annual report. will
find Alaska unprepared to turn the
road at once to it's maximum degree
of usefulness. Colonization plans
should at once be worked out. he says,
and inducements offered to people to
take up homesteads on all the farm
ing land contiguous to the railroad.
Although the past year was unfavor-
able in Alaska from an agricultural
standpoint. 5000 bushels of wheat
were grown in the neighborheod of
Fairbanks and 1000 bushels were
grown in the Matanuska valley for
milling and bread-making purposes.
Gov. Bone says there is reason to
believe the territory should ultimately
produce more than enough wheat for
consumption within it's limits and
should be able to export wheat
One of the most important uses to
which the government railroad will be
put will be that of hauling coal for
the Navy from the Nenana coal fields.
Lignite coal has been found in guam
titles near the road and has been de-
veloped by private companies as well
as by the Navy.
