ANOTHER COUNTY HEARD
The following from the Valdez
Times is amusing enough to be re
printed:
“It is amusing to note the friendly
spats between Seward and Anchorage
as to which is the terminal of the
government railroad. Seward trium
phantly points to the fact that no
vessels will get into Anchorage for
the next five or six months as con
clusive proof that the new railroad
town is barred by nature from mak
ing any claims as to the terminal city.
In both Seward papers, however, are
accounts of a gigantic snowslide, cs
tiamted to contain .”>0,000 yards of
snow, which has closed the line to
traffic and which will not be re
moved until next spring because an
ther one is likely to occur at any mo
ment. This, to an unbiased outsider,
would seem to take a great deal of
weight from Seward’s claims, and
leave the railroad without any termi
nal whatever. It may be some day
that the advantages of Valdez as a
terminal point for the railroad to tin*
interior will be recognized. With a
pass of less than 2.0(H) feet to cross
and w ith no steep grades or deep cuts
the Valdez route is the logical one.
The harbor is the best protected on
the coast.”
F. M. Kempfer, manager of the Al
aska Gold Hill Mining Company, of
Valdez, arrived on the Watson. The
property of the company adjoins the
Cl it!* Mine.
