ENCOURAGING TESTIMONY
Encouragement over the future of Alaska is reflect
ed in the testimony of Dr. George Otis Smith, director of
the Geological Survey, and General Manager Otto F. Ohl
son, of the Alaska Railroad, who yesterday made their
first appearance before the House sub committee on ap
propriations. We are glad both of these gentlemen empha
sized the mineral resources of the Territory for all
future development, on any sort of a scale, must rise
from that foundation, to our way of thinking.
We have the fishing industry on a more or less set
tled basis; the fur raising business is increasing steadily
and the reindeer industry has a foot-hold. But mining,
in every mineral zone in the world, has always been the
one industry upon which progress began.
We are not so strong for the importation of aliens
to settle upon the homesteads of Alaska though good peo
ple they may be. Alaska will have ample American fam
ilies providing our mineral resources are opened up.
If you boost Seward this winter, next summer will
take care of itself.
