DEVELOPMENT HINDERED Policies as Carried Out Declared Absolutely to Have Throttled Opening Vp of Country'6 Large Coal Resources. OREGOXIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash- lngtii, Nov. "". Pinchotlsm haa become the curse of Alaska, according to Walter E. Clark. Governor of that territory. whose annual report is made public to day. Not only has theoretical conservation. as carried out under the direction ol PlnciiOt, absolutely throttled the devel opment of Alaska's vast coal resources. hut Indirectly has broupht to a stand still the constrnction of railroads, upon which exploitation now depends almost entirely. Moreover. Pinchotlsm has tied up In forest reserves vast areas of Alaska land that contains no timber, but which is otherwise valuable, and has withheld from use enormous quantities of mature nd even overripe timber that should be cut. Theory Brings Suffering. Theory In the conoervation of the nat ural resources of that territory has brought abour staimation and suffering. Governor Clark appeals to Congress for reiier; for authority to conserve these great resources In a practical way, and for the benefit of the present generation as well as for the-future. Until this ban is lifted, Alaska must practically stand still. So clear and explicit Is the report of Governor Clark on this question of con servation that it is here quoted at some length. Governor Clark says: The Ill-advised policy of forbidding all development of the large ccal re sources of Alaska, or of placing such re strictions upon development as to make the embarkation of prlvnte capital. Im possible, la to be deprecated, while the policy of conservation by proper use to be encouraged. This coal is needed for the industries of the territory and for the physical comfort of our people. and on no account should It be with held from these uses. A sufficient amount of our coal should be mined to meet the needs of the present gen eration. A large part of the coal used in Alaska la Imported from British Co lumbia, and Is made all the more ex pensive to the consumer because of the payment of duty.

Maban. heiress daughter of the bead of the Sloss- Sheftlcld Steel Company, of lUrmlng ham. now a suburb of this city, had broken her engagement with Count Nasclrnento, a member of an ancient Portuguese- family. Miss Ma ban's papa, though one of the richest men in the state, refuses to be buncoed by a foreigner, who would wed his daughter. It Is said In society circles hero that the Count was not satisfied with one of Pennsylvania's most beautiful daughters, who has a dowry of $1,000, POO In her own right, but that he de manded more and "got fooled. At least Papa Maban refused to bite. Mr. Maban Is said to hare told his sup posed son-in-law rather rudely that he would not give his daughter now more than he had originally announced, and that If he (the Count) wasn't sat isfied, be (tha Count) knew what to do about the matter. The wedding was to hare occurred the day before Thanksgiving but it was said yesterday at the Maban man sion that the engagement waa broken off November 14. Miss Maban Is quoted as laying now that her engagement was not broken off for the reason that the Count asked for an additional portion for his title and his condescension to marry a rich American girl, and later Mr. Maban gave the following; to the newspapers: "Mr. Maban wishes to give to the public no reason why ha broke the engagement off so near, the date of tha wedding.

The next conrerence win pa Held in San Francisco in July, Present System Discourages. "The present impossibility of mining coal, either under title or lease. Is in a measure at least responsible for the sus pension of construction on one of the principal railroads, and has caused a general feeling of discouragement over the business situation In those parts of Alaska where development and settle ment ought to be going on most rapidly. There are mining and other projects. potentially very large, scattered over a wido area, which can not be undertaken until domestic coal Is on the market, but which, with fuel Iras costly, would be developed on a large scale. The ter ritory has now reached a point In its Industrial progress where further exten sive growth Is rendered impossible with out those strong factors In all euch progress cheap fuel and Improved trans portation. "The building of railroads is positively discouraged, not only hy the want of tonnage coal, but by the high cost of fuel for the operation of locomotive en gines. It Is, claimed by the officers of the Alaska-Northern Railway, the con struction of which Is now at a etand-i-till, that because of the high price ot fuel coal It Is impossible to handle with out loss the smHll local traffic which la offered on Its 75 miles of road already completed. The fuel coal required to make a round trip, with a light train is said to be about jir-O. With coal from the Matunuska fields, situated on the surveyed route of the road the fuel cost would be about t-5. If this reduction in fuel cost were possible, the railway's managers assert, trains could be oper ated for the accommodation of the pub lic and the development of the sur rounding region. Present Law Declared Bad. "In the public dl.tcusslona of Inst year It hHS appeared that the opposition to opening tha Alaska coal fields springs .chiefly from two sources those persons who fear a monopoly and those who would have this cohI held as a reserve supply for the future. The present coal land law (act of May 25. 1908) Is not a good law. but it certainly lends no hope to monopolies, but rather Is calculated to discourage the embarkation of capi tal. The public clamor against the pat enting of claims, as far as It affects those which were entered honestly, and on account of which the act of May 28, 1908 was passed, means nothing less than that the Federal Government should act In bad faith with these claimants.. No honest citizen, unless his views are based on gross miainiormauon. win advocate the cheating of any claimant under our laws. "The present laws are so unsatisfac tory, however, that It Is hoped a leas ing system for the development of these coal lands may be adopted, after the present claims shall have been disposed of on their merits. It will be found quite feasible, according to tha best authori ties, to devise suitable terras for leases, protecting both the public and the op erators, and Insuring intelligent conser vation. Extremists Views Wrong. "The view of the etr''ml',t tht " 'he Alaska coal should be kept as a reserve supply for the future has nothing to commend It, and deserves to be con demned by every sincere advocate of conservation. 'In the Interest of general conserva tion of coal, Alaska coal should be mined and used. For every five tons of East ern coal which Is brought around Cape Horn to the Pacific Coast, approximately one ton is burned to make steam for its transportation. To withhold the Alaska coal, therefore, is not conservation, but waste. Alaska has an abundance of cok ing coal which. If available, could be used for the manufacture of Pacific Coast Iron ores, thus not only avoiding the waste of coal now rauwd by the transportation of Eastern manufactured iron, but building up a new industry on the Pacific. The amount of timber cut from forest reserves In Alaska in the last fiscal year was 15,471,000 board feet. This probably represents not more than one-half of the amount cut In all of Alaska, including cord wood used as fuel. The receipts of the Korest Service 'n the territory were J19.502.02. Delays to Be Obviated. "As recommended hy this office, steps have recently been taken toward the fur ther adaptation of the Forest Service ad ministration to local conditions in Alaska. Provision has now been made for scaling forest reserve timber at the mill instead of at the place of cutting, thus obviating delays which, though necesspry under the former system, were extremely vexatious. Still further reforms are necessary in or der that the interests of forest conserva- Hon may not prevent or hinder perfectly legitimate development. "Upon the sound theory that the In vestment of capital In a frontier country should be encouraged In proportion to the natural obstacles which are to be encoun tered, it would seem that Government aid for railroad construction In Alaska is not only justifiable, but absolutely necessary to the early develooment of the terrl tory's great resources and to the settle ment of the country.
