“You have a delightful city here. It
! is pleasing to note the evidence of per-;
I manence and signs of progress. While !
I had some information about the
city and knew it was a substantial
community, I was surprised to find
such a fine tqwn as you have here.
For years I have taken an interest
in Alaskan affairs and have made a <
| study of the Territory, reading books!
about it and studying official and un-!
official reports
The question put to me very often j
on this trip was ‘Why is there not
more people in Alaska?’ If it is a
question of legislation, it is my desire I
to find out, to know what kind of le
gislation is necessary.
1 Both mining and agricultural de
; velopment apparently has been re
; tarded by lack of adequate transpor
tation, land facilities, roads and trails,
i I am greatly pleased with the road
S to Lake Kenai. It is a fine piece of
iwork. The homesteads and cabins
| scattered along its length are but a i
! fore-runner of what is to come.
| I -want to see more farms in Alaska.
| The settlement of the soil makes for
j permanence.
! There are still too many pictures of
glaciers and snow covered mountains j
being spread broad-cast and they have j
tended to strengthen the impression
that this is a land of perpetual ice !
and snow. Look at these cards and I
pictures that I am mailing south. Not !
| a one with a glacier or snow, but all
'of your beautiful flowers, scenery, i
and animals.
As far as I am concerned, I will try
to see that appropriations for both the f
j Alaska Road Commission and the
I Alaska Railroad be made more ge
nerous than in the past, also for the ;
Geological Survey. As long as I am
j a member of the Senate any bill com
j ing before me for the separation of
!
Ithe Panhandle district of Alaska from
i the rest of the Territory, though may
, be entertained, wouuld not be passed.
