! REYNOLDS AT
LAST SPEAKS
lii Long Letter to Gateway Promo
ter Defends Himself Against
His Persecutors.
Henry D. Reynolds sends to the
Seward Gateway a statement for publi
cation relative to himself and the af
i fairs of the Reynolds-Alaska-Develop
meat Company and other interests
promoted by him in Alaska. The
I statement is too long for publication
in the Gateway, but the following will
I give the gist of the matter to those
! interested:
“The only way that I can account
for the repeated persecution—for to
my mind it has ceased to be prosecu
tion—is that interests hostile to the
Reynolds-Alaska System consider it
advantageous to them to embarrass j
me.
“The fact will be readily recalled
that live of my workmen on the Alas
ka Home Railway were shot down last
year, and one of them killed, and later
the underwriting contract with the
Tacoma Syndicate was canceled under
the pressure of hostile business
interests, which coming at the time of
the panic last October seriously em
barrassed my financial plans, and was
the direct cause of the suspension of
operations.
•‘Since last October I have had am
ple evidence of continued hostility to
my interests, both personal and corpo
rate, in every move which I have seen
fit to make to protect the interests of
my stockholders.
uTo my positive knowledge not a
single stockholder among the 1,700 in
the Reynolds-Alaska Development
Company, or the 500 in the Alaska
Home Railway, has made any com
plaint against me, although strenuous
efforts were made by government offi
cials to have them do so.
“The financing of the Reynolds
Alaska Development Company and the
Alaska Home Railway was on the
cleanest possible lines and no misstate
ment of facts was ever made with
intent to deceive in any literature.
That we were disappointed in some of
our expectations is but incidental to
all similar enterprises of such magni
tude, but the intrinsic value of our
properties cannot be seriously ques
tioned.
“I have reliable engineers’ reports
which prove every statement regard
ing the mines, their value and the de
velopment work reported to the stock
holders as having been accomplished.
“You will recall the fact that the
