WHAT CHARLES E. BROWN HAS
TO SAY.
Charles E. Brown, of the firm of
Brown & Hawkins, is an optimist with
a capital O. In fact we think
that Charles E. Brown would assay
at least fifty per cent optimism,
and it is the brand that is based on a
clean cut knowlede of conditions and
founded on a basis ot solid fact. He is
one of the pioneers, not only of the
Kenai peninsula but the Yukon terri
tory as well. He came into the conn
try when there were no trails and has
been an Alaskan, in all that the name j
implies, ever since. He is a broad- j
minded business man, who never hesi-j
tates to back his judgement with his ,
money, and yet is conservative in all
business matters.
The other day we asked him what
he thought of the present outlook for
Seward and this section of the country.
We knew he thought pretty well of it,
from the preparations that ids firm is
making for increased business, and
were not surprised when he said:
“I think that the business outlook j
for all of* Alaska and for Seward in'
particular is the best ever. This town I
is going to boom as few people antici-1
pate. We were already for a boom
once before, but it did not materialize,
just a natural increase in business,
caused by construction on the Alaska*
Central railroad, hut now we are in ;
for a boom, two booms in fact. One is i
right on us now and the other, the big j
boom, the permanent boom that will
take us on with a rush into permanent
prosperity, will start with a jump as i
soon as President Wilson announces
that the government railroad will be-i
gin construction at Seward. The best
days that we, of Seward, have known
in the past, will not amount tooneone
hundreths of what we have in store,
and the wise ones are taking time by
the forelock and getting ready for
their share of the prosperity. The
Guggenheims are dead as a legislative j
influence with the present administra* !
lion. They cut no figure at all, and it j
was the greatest thing that ever hap
pened to Alaska when we got a presi
dent and a congress that they could
not dictate to, nor influence in any |
wav.
* i
“I honestly believe that Seward is
the only place tor the starting of the
government railroad and 1 also he-1
lieve that there will not be an in
stant's hesitation on the part of the;
commission, when they come to the j
work of selecting the location for the ;
terminal. You can look at the natural i
advantages that Seward has in abund- j
ance, and then look at the reports that
have been made by every competent
engineer who has made an examina
tion of the harbors and routes of Alas
ka and you will find that they all point j
to Seward.5' #
Charles Brown is right and we be-1
lieve in him.
