YOU CAN’T GET AWAY
FROM SEWARD.
Straws are popularly supposed ro be
an unfailing indication of the particu
lar direction in which the wind i> tdow
ing at the time. This's an old : dage
and has been proven times without
number and if vou believe in the old!
*
adage you must see 4*?l»f band w i iting
on the wall” and realize that you can’t
get a wav from Seward.
Everything points that way and the
latest and greatest indication that ;
Seward is to be the place, is the in— •
formation that the government will j
establish a government land oilice at
this point.
As an indication that Uncle Sam}
has his eye on Seward for a terminal j
for the government built railroad, this •
last is tne most conclusive evidence
that we are IT in the prospective game
of Alaskan prosperity.
Reports from competent engineers in j
the employ of the government in the j
past have always favored Seward as
the most feasible place for the termi
nal of a railroad from salt water to the
Yukon.
The order to mine and send a thou
sand tons of Matanuska coal to salt i
water on Knik arm was an indication. \
The sending of the Maryland to Sew
ard last summer was an indication and
the fact that Seward has the only har
bor where the big cruiser could safely j
anchor inside, only added to the grow- •
ing impression that Seward is the
place. The appointment of a United j
States prosecuting attorney, who is a*
trusted friend of the administration, to
this district leads one to believe that
Seward is the place. The determina-j
tion to establish a government laud of
fice at Seward is proof that the admin
istration is looking for a rush to this
section and wants to he in a position to
look after land matters here. In fact
every move that the government hasj
made only strengthens the position of.
Seward aud if one believes in the old ’
adage that “straws show which way j
the wind blows,v one must admit that j
you can't get away from Seward.
