LOOKING AHEAD
Alaskan progress of the past forecasts the future greatness of
the Northland, and justifies all Alaskans in holding to their firm
faith in the Territory's possibilities and worth. By aiming high and
working together—actively and steadily—those having to do with Al
askan progress can accomplish much. “Looking Ahead” to still great
er things, and planning and working accordingly, is the one way that
a high purpose can be realized.
The Alaska Railroad—a pioneer system—is gradually and pain
stakingly striding towards a great goal—the greater development of
Alaska; and that the future is bright and promising is attested by
the steady and consistent upward trend of past and present activi
ties. The Alaska Railroad is “Looking Ahead.”

ed rights that accrue through the re
ceivership;
That the receivers have been unable
because of the consolidation above to
submit bids for coal to The Alaska
Railroad for 5,000 tons of coal;
“That Bartley Howard, in addition
to being a party in st controversy with
said receivership, at all times knew*
that said receivership was in full
force and effect and especially on
the 16th day of December, 1925;
“That judgment debtors are left
without opportunity to be heard in
defense of their rights;
“That under the disadvantages
pointed out and the consequent higher
costs of operations arising therefrom
and from the application for consoli
dation, the report of the McDonald re
ceivership shows cash in the sum of
$10,500 and added machinery and
equipment of $12,000 and in addition
there is blocked out 200,000 tons of
coal of commercial quality and ready
for marketing.
“Of moneys in the hands of the re
ceiver S4.000 represents rebate of
bond to the Premier Coal company by
the Interior department, which leaves
approximately $26,000 indebtedness to
be liquidated.
In the construction of the Moose
Creek spur, 25,000 tons of coal at
$5.00 per tpn were allotted to the
Premier mine as its part of the cost
of the i spur. It is claimed in the
protest under tlm Bedell receivership
the Premier had not had advantage of
payment, for the spur with free coal.
| it 4s -claimed that payments on
; judgments against the Premier mine
have been held up because of appli
cation for consolidation of the leases,
and therefore the protest on the part
of the debtors unless the payment of
amounts, due creditors and expenses
in connection therewith are incurred
bv the Alaska Matanuska Coal com
pany along with the lease.
It is understood that Judge Ritchie
contemplates discharging the receiver
unless sufficient showing is made to
warrant his retention.
As yet no reply has been received
from the Department of the Interior
as far as known, passing upon the
question of consolidation.
