It has been a cause of legitimate
complaint for years that Congress,
as a body, is perversely ignorant
about Alaska, of the splendid de- i
velopment,.and of the more splen
did possibilities- which lie before
the imperial northern territory.
Tlint ignorance. However, is in a
fair way to be dispelled. Judging
by the recent debate on the matter
of appropriations for wagon roads
in Alaska, there aro soma members
of Congress- who have taken to
studying'tlie Alaska cjuestion, and
who have equibpcd'tbernselves with
a splendid fund of information
about that wonderful country.
No member of the House wlio
listened to the speecli of John M
Reynolds, of Pennsylvania, on the
subject of Alaska can hereafter
*ple&d ignorance ofi that territory.
Xha speech was a comprehensive
summary of the resources, the-pro
ductions and the climatic condi
tions of Alaska, full, accurate and
evincing a thorough knowledge of
the subject. Nor-did the speaker
fbrget to emphasize the character
of the population of that great
territory, a population drawn from
among the most energetic, enter
prising young men of every state
ih' the Union*. A* MVr Rbnolds
arty*:: "Thus far we have rep
resented Alaska- on her material1
aidb.-.with herwrealth in gold, silver,
ooal and copper; in her forests of
profitable timber;' in the returns
from her fur-bearing animals of
the sea and woods* ami from her
dishorns of salmon and'whafe, cod
and halibut; and with her fertile
valleys adapted to homes for mil
lion* of freemen. But Alaska is
more. She is the home of as ener
getic, courageous*, honorable and
liberty-loving as band of pioneers as
*w became the pillars of a state.”
The people oi Alaska owe a debt
of gratitude to Mr. Reynolds for
the good services he has rendered
in presenting as he has done the
the real facts about Alaska before
Congress and before the country.-—
