NORTHERN PACIFIC EXPLOITS
ALASKA IN' UNITED STATES
Alaska’s scenic and industrial ad
vantages are the subject that is no.v
tot-mg presented throughout the nUited
■States in a strenuous campaign inaug
urated by the Northern Pacific rail
way. Prof. Charles Norton Hunt, lec
turer for that railroad, has for some
months conducted addresses in every
important city of the country, ampli
fying his descriptions of the wonder
ful northern possession with stereop
tican slides.
Through the Northern Pacific’s oth
er departments, also, exploitation of
Alaska is being carried on to a
marked degree. This work, it is pre
dicted, will mean a greater volume of
travel to the “Land of the Midnight
| Sun” during the next few years than
j ever before. That Alaska is i ready
proving a drawing card for prospec
tive travelers is indicated by the num
erous inquiries that road is already
receiving from prospective tourists.
The campaign being waged is ex
pected not only to attract tourists but
also to give a decided impetus to Alas
ka’s importance as a country in which
prolific investments can be made.
ALASKAN LEAVES SUNSHINE
FOR SNOWSTORM IN STATE
(Skagway Alaskan)
Alaskans, especially if they live in
I Skagway, should lay in a stock of
heavy clothing when they leave the
i spring sunshine of the “summer capi
1 tal” of the north, for a trip to the
i states, according to a letter just re
ceived by Phil Abrahams from J. A.
Nettles, who is on a visit “outside.”
Mr. Nettles left Skagway April D,
on a trip to his old home in Boston.
Spring had arrived here before he left
but his letter shows that certain sec
tions of the states were not so fav
ored. In Ringllng, Mont., from which
place he wrote, he said he was snow
bound for 22 hours.
Mr. Nettles expects to return to
Skagway the latter part of May.

WASHINGTON, D. C.—Difficulties
of amending state constitutions and
the consequent necessity for a woman
suffrage amendment to the federal
constitution as a measure of war ex
pediency as well as of justice, was
! argued before the senate woman suf
I Dago committee at a hearing Friday
I by Miss Jeanette Rankin, the new
! member of congress from Montana,
j The hearing was at the request of
the National American Woman Suf
i frage association and the Interna
tional Woman Suffrage Alliance and
j was conducted by Mrs. Carrie Chap
man Catt, president of the organiza
tions.
The committee room in the senate
office building was crowded. A signifi
cant feature was the exhibition of the
flags of 22 nations that have granted
woman suffrage by action of their cen
tral governments.
Miss Rankin received prolonged ap
planse as she gained recognition of
the committee, the chairman of which
is Senator Jones of New Mexico. She
told how the various state laws make
it extremely difficult in manyinstances
to obtain suffrage, notwithstanding
the sentiment within the common
wealth may be overwhelmingly in
favor of it. Many times, she pointed
out, it has been possible for a few peo
ple to defeat the will of the majority
in this respect.
A number of senators also spoke in
favor of the proposed federal amend
ment, including Senators Kendrick of
Wyoming, Shafroth of Colorado,
Thompson of Kansas and Walsh of
Montana. They explained the great
benefits that have come to their states,
politically and otherwise, through the
granting of equal suffrage to women.
Senator Kendrick, former governor of
his state, declared, “Every decent man
ought to line up on the side of woman
! suffrage.”
Mrs. Catt spoke in part, as follows:
“It should be rJmembered that 19
j states have voted on woman suffrage
referenda during the past five years,
of which only six were won. In
1 several of the remaining 13, the
i defeat was definitely traceable to the
S foreign vote, organized under the
I direction of unscrupulous native bom
women workers at the polls in each
of these states have reported that
illiterate men, signing their names
with a mark, ignorant men without
understanding, foreign men who could
not speak English, drunken men with
minds blurred, and every other
type which makes up the underworld,
were marshalled to the polls and
directed to vote against woman suf
frage by men notorious for political
dishonesty. These reports have come
from precinct after precinct, from
county after county and from every
state. Let me assure you that none
of the women who have witnessed
such scenes will again give homage to
their government, without a reserva
tion. From that moment they seek
the vote, not as a right denied them,
but as a duty to aid the reclamation
of democracy from the degradation to
which in too many localities it has
been allowed to sink.
“The most appealing argument in
j favor of the federal amendment is
that every opponent of woman suf
j frage of high or low degree is fran
tically opposed to that method. They
are opposed also to referenda, but if
they must chose, they take the ref
erenda, for there are blocks of irre
i sponsible votes which can be utilized
to defeat suffrage by referenda. We
are opposed to the denial of the free
dom of the seas by prowling U-boats
and we are equally opposed to the
denial of the vote to half our people
by piratical, submarine election meth
ods. It is the duty of congress to
rescue this question from further
treatment of this kind. We are out
stripped in the march of progress
which was inaugurated by our coun
try. If we are to recover place, there
must be a 'wake up, America,’ and
that at once.”
