To the
Property Owners
of Seward:
There is a steady and increasing
demand for property in Seward, and
for improved property in particular.
Customers are making inquiries of us
daily ,and* the supply of cabins avail
able for rent is at present extremely
limited. Any kind of a cabin or build
ing in Seward is now rentable. Eevery
! steamer is bringing new* arrivals to
Seward and it is necessary for them
all to have a place to live when they
arrive here.
We want to ask every property
holder in Seward to assist us in look
ing after the wants of the new* comers
and to that end, ask that they furnish
us with a list of their property, that
they wish to rent and we will do all
that we can to lease or rent it for you.
It does not make any difference
whether it is a residence or business
| property, we have numerous demands
for bith, and will be able to place
either for you in a short time.
It is up to the citizens of Seward to
look after the comfort of the new
| comers and as an act of hospitality
| alone it is up to you to list your prop
erty if you care to rent it.
We now have a few choice bargains
in real estate, and if you are in the
market for anything in that line, we
would be pleased to go over the list
with you, and possibly we may find
just what you w’ant .
Strangers are cordially invited to
call at our office and make their
wants known.
