SEWARD, ALASKA. MONDAY, OCTOBER 30, 19H>.
The Gateway moved into its new quarters and the
paper will be issued there today. For the benefit of out-,
siders, people who do not know Seward. Alaska, it may l>e
said that the Gateway offices now are in a splendid three
story concrete building. It is one ol three fine concrete1
buildings which have just been completed in this town but
it is the largest of the three. Some day a full description
ot' the building will be given and it is hoped also to have aj
cut of it published so that Alaska might see how Seward,
the terminal of its government railroad, is progressing.
Gr.e often hears it said of a fine new building in Alaska
that it would be a credit to a city of twenty times the pop
ulation outside, but this statement can be made without
the slightest exaggeration in this instance.
You know, a person naturally has a feeling of pleas
ure when a change is made for the better and the Gate
way felt this morning in taking another step upward and
onward that same sensation of progress. And this pro
gress means that the city is progressing and one of its
oldest institutions is progressing with it. In a day or two
the offices will be in perfect shape and too many of the
paper’s friends cannot come to see them.
Mr. van Gilder deserves a tremendous lot of credit
for giving a building like this to Seward. He came in a
stranger and seeing that Seward must grow he set to
work unostenstationusly to erect The Office Block. It is
an enforced concrete building eighty-four by thirty-four
feet in dimensions. On the first and second stories it has
twenty-seven rooms. The basement is large enough to
house the whole plant of the Gateway and on the third
story, in addition to all the rest, are splendid lodge rooms.
Once again, let it be said, Seward should appreciate such
enterprise and confidence as that exhibited by Mr. van
Gilder.
One week from tomorrow the elections inside and
outside will he decided. Somehow, one feels that Alaska
should he in sympathy with the party that is represented
by the Wilsons and the Lanes who gave Alaska its great
railroad. Full credit may be given to the others who are
said to have shown sympathy with the work but, after all,
the railroad was started by the Democratic party. No
matter how Republican Alaskans might be they should
never be heard trving to detract from the work of Presi
(lent Wilson and Secretary Lane.
