MEANS MUCH TO ALASKA
The announcement in yester
day’s telegraph tija{ th? Alas
ka Railroad Commission had
recommended the building of
a railroad from Ship Creek to
the Matanuska coal field*. Th?
Admin is tat ion is to be com
mended fgr th? speed with
wmich the Commission has
worked, and bow, if Congre**
will do as well, the year 1915
will see this, the first section
of a government railroad act
ually begun and on the high
road to completion. The find
of the naval experimental
board telling of the tests of
Matanuska coal ha* no doubt
had much to do with the decis
ion of the Commission, as it
s.-.ouid, and it is to be hoped
that the coal will come up to
ail expectations. It is to be
regretted however that Ship
Creek has been selected for
the tide water terminal of the
road, a< past experience shows
that he harbor there i* not sat
isfactory. Either Seward or
Portage Bay would be better,
the former preferably.
