FACTS ABOUT SEW A HI)
Seward is situated on Resurrection Bay, midway of
the coast line of the Gull ol Alaska and Hit) aiiles liom
route of the Pacific steamers to the Orient.
The various trade routes of the North Pacific Ocean,
and all the roads and highways and trails and mountain
passes from the interior converge at this point much as it
nature had anticipated the need ot a gateway thiougn
which the trade and travel of -a great region might find
convenient passage.
The deep, perfectly protected harbor presents an ob
long surface embracing forty square miles, upon which
any ship that floats may sail in satety at any time, and
which in appearance suggests nothing so much as a beauti
ful inland lake.
The mainland and shores of Resurrection supply am
ple space and perfect topograp iy tor the building ot a city
of whatever extent future needs may develop; and this cir
cumstance, added to its natural position as a gateway to
the interior, and the freedom from ice at all seasons ot the
harbor and adjacent waters lead the government to select
:his port as the ocean terminal for the railroad. The un
limited coal and oil and mineral resources of Alaska will
1 low through this port to enter the commerce of the world,
r.nd in return will come the supplies lor distribution o\ei
a territory greater in extent tnan many state combined,
thus making it the great port of the North Pacific or the
NEW YORK OF ALASKA.

surrounding this city, write to the
