Seward, Alaska, February 26, 1914
That Seward has all the best of it as
a terminal for the^ new government
railroad, as seen from the eyes of an
outsider and not a prejudiced observer,
is evidenced by a letter recently re
ceived in Seward from Martin Welch,
a big railroad contractor who was
heavily interested in some construc
tion contracts while the Alaska C en
tral railway was in procees ot construc
tion. Mr. Welch says: “Outside, the
betting on the new terminal in Alaska
is Seward against the held, with the
odds on Seward, and if you take the
field, you can practically name your
own odds. I am sure that the popula
tion of Seward will be more than doub
led hv the first of May, and it is con
fidently predicted here in Seattle, that
within the next two years the pop
ulation of Alaska will jump from
three to five hundred thousand peo
ple, and that, irrespective of where
the government railroad is built.
When you pause to consider that the
Government is going to expend forty
million dollars, and that money will be
spent within a radius of one hundred
and fifty miles from some point
that will take in the three principal
towns of Southwestern Alaska, and
when vou realize that that immense
amount of money is only a possible ten
or twenty percent of what will be ex
pended in the same territory by priv
ate capital, you will get an idea of the
prosperity that is in ^>tore for Alaska
and your section ot the country.”
