SEWARD, ALASK \. H ESDAY, JULY 6, 1015.
It might be interesting just now to know what people in other parts of
Alaska are thinking about Seward, Anchorage and the railroad question
generally. As a matter of fact they seem to think something like Seward.
The Juneau Dispatch, for instance, says:
‘‘Who says that Uncle Sam is not a good real estate boomer?. The pros
pectus about Anchorage sounds mighty good to a prospective investor. It is
similar to the kind put out by private companies when they want to boom a
townsite. Moreover, the government is out after the money. The lots in the
new townsite are to be sold to the highest bidder and there is every indication
that there will be some lively bidding for choice locations.
For instance the “prospectus" says, after dwelling upon tributary re
sources, "the railroad engineering commission is planning to construct at
Anchorage, machine shops, engine houses, terminal freight yards, water
tanks, commissary buildings and buildings and plant necessary in connection
with terminal coai dock site, wholesale houses, brick and cement plants and
other industries have and are about to be established/
Some boosting, that.”
The Fourth of July probably passes around without half the people who
observe it giving the >lighc>t thought to what it stands for. It is probably
the same with all national holidays but a national holiday, after all, could
hardly be a national holiday if people decided to let their thoughts dwell, to
the exclusion of everything else, on the serious events which brought them
forth. A national holiday is never a rational holiday.
SAYS BECKER IS INNOCENT.
NEW YORK. July 3.—Marshal, at
torney for one of the confessed mur
derers of Rosenthal, declared today
that Becker is innocent of the crime.
He declares that he has been made
certain of this fact by the statement
the man he represented, but some
comment has been made on the cir
cumstance that Marshall did not make
this statement before.
VALDEZ, July 2.—John W. Frame
was found guilty by a jury in Com
missioner Love’s court of the offense
of assault and battery against Dr.
Dalton. The jury wrestled all night
and after twelve hours of agony
brought forth the verdict of guilty
with a recommendation to clemency.
Judge Love imposed a fine of $50
and costs the latter amounting to
$172.20. The defendant gave notice of
appeal and it is understood that the
appeal will be perefcted before the
end of the day.—(Prospector.)
