NOME WIL
SEE GREAT PROSPERITY CHANGES
THE SUMMER is fafltly fading away and Winter is drawing near,
and as the Summer months slowly fade and are replaced by the short
winter days which visit Nome in the winter every one can look back over
the summer days and say "it was a good summer" both us to weather
and business.
Sunny California, as that State is often referred to, could boost
no tiner climate than was in evidence this summer in Nome and v ■ uv
While there was a dry spell at the start of the summer which interC ned
with mining* operations to a great extent, it was not serious enoucr: to
hurt mining enough to keep that industry from being a huge sucecs.- t r
the season.
Nome is on the road to prosperity, big business is coming to Nome
and that in the near future as next summer will undoubtedly see. Every
man who is familiar with the possibilities which Nome and vicinity has to
offer are very optimistic in their views in regards to th* future of this
district. With the advent of new companies already this summer and
other companies which expect to conte in next /Spring, evun the pessimist
has a hopeful look on his face when discussing the future of part of
Alaska.
Nome Is going to build up regardless of all the pessimists and
“Gloomy Guses" in existence, and it is reliant upon the cUizer.s who are
progressive in the business world to get behind any move that for the
betterment of this community, and forget any little difference which might
have occurred between themselves and others in the business world.
The Nuggpt predicts at this time that there will be mor* people
winter in Nome than has been the case for many years. Opportunity is
knocking at the door of every man who has holdings in this part of
Alaska, and with the coming of next year there Is no! a shred of a doubt
but what great changes for the better will take place right in <>ur own
locality.
ALASKANS WANT OUTSIDE CAPITAL
‘‘ALASKA CANNOT be forced save by resident development,’* says
the Fairbanks News-Miner, ns a part >f its campaign against nteresting
Outside capital in tin Territory.
No new country, especially a new country like Alaska wheru
development can only come with large capital, can be developed quickiy
except through the use of accumulated savings from older countries.
The contention that Outside capitalistss when they put money into
a new country acquire somethin# that belongs or ought to belong to
thosie who live in the country is absurd. When a man or a corporation
invests one million dollars, for instance, in Alaska he does not take any
thing from any one living in the Territory. He adds a million to the
wealth of the Territory—plus the “unearned increment" that attaches
to other property in the vicinity of the investment and plus the opportun
ities for individuals that are created through the investment The in
vestment of capital in Alaska makes room for more people and more peo
ple adds to the value of all the property and to the opportunities of all
those who live near the added population.
The development of the United States illustrates the value of
outside investments. The West was largely developed by Eastern and
European capital. Population followed these investments and popula
tion caused, for instance, Iowa lands to increase in value from $1.25 an
acre to $500 an acre, and built up scores of cities.
Unless conservation policies can be carried out in such a way that
they will induce capital to come to Alaska for the development of our
resurces, then conservation will continue to prove a brake on progress.
Fortunately for Alaska the Forestry Bureau and those in other branches
of Federal governmental activities realize this. The Forestry Bureau is
now, and for sometime past has been, doing all within its power to induce
capital to come to Alaska t® develop a pulp and paper manufacturing busi
ness. This policy of Col. Greeley, Mr. Flory and those associated with
them has done far more to reconcile the people of Alaska to conservation
than all the rot that has been written or uttered abut saving resources
for the people of Alaska. Alaskans want resources used and not saved,
and that is what the Forestry Bureau officials want.
