Ohio has been insulted by a Representative who voted for and supported the Alaskan bill. Now. Mr. Speaker. I will confine myself to my subject. and thereby probably get through sooner: The volume of the future railway traffic of Alaska is purely a speculative proposition. Its total white population is about 36.000. scattered in mere handfuls over an area of 600.000 square miles. There must be an immense immigration to that region before any substantial Increased railway traffic there can be hoped for. Compare the Alaska situation with the Ohio Valley. if you please. Three million people reside upon and near the banks of the Ohio.
