BUILDERS TO
OBTAIN TERMS
BALL VINE WILL SELL LOTS ON
INSTALLMENT PLAN TO
UPBUILD CITY.
John Baialilte made announcement
today of his policy in selling his Se
ward property and the methods he be
lieves should be employed by all Se
wardites in building the terminus of
the government railroad system into
one of the big cities of the Pacific
coast.
"To bona fide purchasers who will
build homes or business blocks," said
Mr. Ballaine, "I will sell any of my
property on installment payments ex
tending over three to five years with
7 per cent, interest on deferred pay
ments. This will make it easy for the
purchasers to get started and will en
able them to get the big end of the
increased prices that are certain as
the rail road extends into the interior.
"Seward’s future, with all the re
sources of Alaska as its foundation,
must depend upon the development of
the country tributary to the railroad i
and the river system that it is to con- ^
nect with the ocean at this point. We
should try to keep Seward’s growth
abreast of that development, build
ing steadily and surely and avoiding
a boom that would be followed by
long depression. Some large build- j
ing operations are on the boards to
begin as soon as the time is ripe.
"The resources back of Seward trib
utary to the route of the new railroad
and river systems are incomparably
greater than the resources back of
Prince Rupert, yet prices in Prince
Rupert are ten times the prices for
corresponding property in Seward.”
GRIGSBY RE-APPOINTED.
JUNEAU. May 25.—Governor
Strong yesterday re-appointed Hon.
George B. Grigsby of Nome to mem
bership on the Alaska commission on
uniform laws, for the term of six
years beginning May 26, 19i5.
The 1915 session of the legislature
failed to make appropriation for the
expenses of the commission for the
next two years, hence the work of
the commission will be somewhat
limited.
Postmaster Deal has suggested to
the postofiice department that the
name of the new postoffice htat he
wants to establish at the new Tolovana
strike be named “Brooks,” in honor
of Afred H. Brooks, of the United
Sates Geological survey, who caused
the prospectors to look there for gold.
Certainly no other man is as deserv
ing of the compliment—(Fairbanks
Citizen.)

ALL-ALASKA REVIEW IS
SELLING IN HUNDREDS.
Many Sending the Copies Outside to
Satisfy Universal Curiosity
About K. K. Terminal
The sale of the first issue of the
All-Alaska Review keeps up to the
splendid pace at which it started out.
Many people are buying bunches oT
copies to send to their friends out
side as they feel that by just rolling
up a copy of the Review and putting
a couple of stamps on it they can tell
their faraway acquaintances more
about Seward than they could by a
day’s writing. Thousands of copies
have already been purchased and the
great pile is dwindling. Several peo
ple have subscribed by the year for
the Review for friends who have lived
in the territory and who will wish to
keep in touch with it. Some of them
have been kind enough to say they
| can think of no more acceptable pres
I ent from Alaska that would not cost
! ten times the money. Taking all in
all the All-Alaska Review has already
surpassed the expectations of the pub
lishers. great as they were.
No account has ever come as to
whether the Fourth division held a
liquor election, or census, or not.
None of the Fairbanks, Ruby or ldit
arotl papers have mentioned the sub
ject and it sems to be clear that an
exception was made of that division.
This gives rise once again to the ques
tion as to whether the judges of the
other three divisions acted on their
own responsibility.

BANK OF SEWARD
ESTABLISHED IN 1905
THE (’HIKE Fl'NCTION of this hank is to receive money on deposit
and after withholding ample reserve to meet the day-to-day demands of
depositors, to loan the balance back again in the community to safe and
worthy customers; thus multiplying cash and credit, increasing the vol
ume of working capital, keeping open the channels of trade, and stimulat
ing commercial development.
Every dollar you deposit with your local hank adds an average of
one dollar and seventy-five cents to the working capital of the community
Every wise and public spirited citizen carries a bank account. Money
that does not work is as useless as a man who does not w'ork.

When Ned is feeling lucky,
Or has a busy hour
We really believe his one best bet,
Is that famous Eastern Sour.
* With crushed fruits from the tropics,
And ice from this Northern Land.
And Sherwood Rye, he frames a drink
That tastes just simply grand.
