Alaska’s riches lure rail lines to Su via Susitna valley
The speaker argues Alaska’s valleys hold gold copper and vast agricultural potential awaiting population and cheap transport. He says trunk line railroads through the heart of Alaska, especially the Susitna valley, are needed to open mineral banks and a broad agricultural country. He notes gravel banks could yield eight to fifteen dollars daily with affordable transport and mentions Nome’s new Pioneer Press edited by L. C. Denny.
