TRUITT RELATES
(Continued from Page Six)
Alaskans, that the outstanding ob
struction to progress in Alaska to
day is the condition of “Absentee
Land-lordism" that now prevails.
That is. the Bureaucratic Adminis
tration of Alaska and its resources
in Washington, D. C., instead of by
the people of Alaska. The laws are
made in Washington by men who
have only a slight, if any, interest
in the Territory and its future, and
people representing bureaus whose
interest in Alaska runs concurrent
with their commissions and who
expect to be out of Alaska before
said commissions expire, which is
Shut another way of saying that
j their interest in Alaska is purely a
j selfish interest. The people who
| come to Alaska to make their
j homes are people imbued with the I
'pioneer spirit. They know condi
tions as they exist and are better
qualified than any one else to han
1 clle the situation to the best advan
tage. However, under present con
ditions the Alaskan is in much the
[same position as a ward with ref
ierence to his guardian. He is a
man of much potential means un
der the guardianship of the Wash
ington bureaus which permit him
: to benefit from those means only to
the extent they deem it advisable
jto dole same out to him, and as a
result of the accumulated red tape
[it is dealt out wiht a niggardly
hand, indeed.
I believe that every effort should
jbe made to encourage and foster
prospecting and mining. The “Old
Guard” of prospectors seems to be
dwindling thru the vicissitudes of
age and the necessity of providing
for his bodily needs in other ways,
and if the untold wealth that lays
locked in nature’s embrace are to
be found and wrested from her
grasp every assistance and encour
agement should be offered those
who lend their efforts to that end.
Financial assistance lent to bona
fide prospectors cannot fail but re
turn a hundred fold in increased
production of our mineral wealth.
“I believe in the enactment of all
legislation within reason that will j
serve to invite capital to Alaska,
[and the protection of the same af
ter it comes. I am heartly in favor
of consistent legislation that will j
eliminate the outside fisherman ;
