SENATOR SULZER
! IS OPTIMISTIC
SAYS GOOD THINGS ABOUT
ALASKA. FIRES A SHOT AT
THE DELEGATE
Senator Chas. A. Sulzer, who is
stopping in town for a few days on
his way to Sulzer from New York,
called at the Frogressive-Miner
office yesterday desirous of seeing
the potatoes that were recently re
ceived from Ed. Thornton of Sulzer.
The Senator was quite perturbed
about the matter and claimed the
Frogressive-Miner has been making
some very strong hints for more
vegetables, but to the best knowl
edge of the Senator, they are all
gone for this season and none will
be forth-coming until next sum
I mer. “But” said Mr. Sulzer, “I
have not been trying to grow prize
vegetables for exhibition purposes,
but have simply sent you over the
run of my stuff, but if it is going
to resolve itself into a compe
tion for prize vegetables, you just
. wait until next season and I will
grow some exhibition articles.
“Speaking of agriculture, I want
•o again express anew my confi
dence in the great possibilities of
Alaska. The day will surely come
when the agricultural wealth of
Alaska will be greater than iti
| mineral and fisheries wealth com
; bined. This is confirmed by the
■ statements of leading men all
; through the various sections of Al
aska. Capital must come first to
: open and develop the mineral, tim
| her and other resources. This will
: bring great numbers of people to
Alaska and the agricultural pro
ducts will be produced as a logics1
: seouence to feed the people. It has
■ been so in all great developments
j of our country and history will
i but repeat itself in the development
of Alaska.
‘We have had a very' pleasant
trip to San Francisco and New
York. The exposition at San Fran
i cisco was a magnificient institution.
:?nd probably nothing finer has ever
been witnessed. No one can ever
regret having made the trip to see
this great work.
‘I found conditions in the East
remarkably good: in Fact this is
true nearly throughout the entire
I country. Wonderful crops have
made the farming sections of our
people very prosperous: the rail
roads have so much business that
! they are at a loss in many instances
i to know how to handle the great
volume: the steel industry, which
is the basic one of the country, was
never in such condition as at the
present time when all plants are
working at their maximum capacity
and in most cases no. orders are
being received for delivery earlier
than next fall. The metals are all
in excellent demand, and th?s pros
perous condition of a'l our resourc
es is rapidly permeating all lines of
business, and it is generally believ
ed that 1916 wall be one of the mos*
prosperous years in our history.
“The copper business is in fin'*
; shape and there are no stocks on
hand. The best opinion is that the
pric" of copper will be good for a
I nur her of years, and this is of par
; ticular interest to the Ketchikan
district as copper is our chief re
scue in my judgement. There
i will bo many inquires regarding
' our denosits during the next year.
“A vast amount of copper now
being permanently destroyed by the
^rightful disaster in Europe and
other parts of the world, and al'
this copper used on the battlefield
and sunk in the oceans is gone for
good. It will never be recovered
and used over again as scraps ns is
the case with copper in arts and
'■ industries. Another great factor in
i the copper market is the transfer of
; the control of this metal from Lon-'
[don to New York. Henceforth
New York is destined to be the
financial center of the world and it
will control the copper market of
the world.
"It may be of interest to say that
; I have taken a lease for a period
i of fifteen years upon the Jumbo
[mine from the Alaska Industrial
| Company. In the future T will per
! sonally operate the propert y a=
I lessee. I plan during the coming
| year to make certain improvements
i tvhich will, 1 believe, improve the
efficiency and economy of the oper
ations. Greater power will be de
veloped as the property has been
handicapped in this respect.
"T also have undertaken the erec
tion of a grinding mill for the
treatment of Barytes ore from
the Lime Point deposit. This fac
tory will be built at Sulzer. The
machinery is now being purchased
by men thoroughly familiar with
i the requirements and the plant will
; he completed as early as weather
, conditions may permit. A sma!1
! sawmill and improvements in the
pipe lines will be installed at once.”
The Senator has reserved a few
i words on political affairs for to
[ morrow.
