IT has boon suggested that tic* Fnited States Government
<rerf t onument ./ -he Fannur Cana! to commerate French j
geuiu> and French initiative in that great enterprise.
Many Americans may consider this sugges-j
TO DO HONOR hod. The ile Lessps
TO THE FRENCH ndertuking was a eoilossal failure linan- j
'daily, and that fact has cast a cloud of j
oeiittlement upon *. /ire French achievement on the Isthmus of j
F mom. That this ^ an iivust view. Colonel Goethals himself
hears the u e^* convincing testimony.
The gr ; ‘ -n e \mcrican engineers, having completed the
work beg \ ;itul while receiving the thanks of the
National < k*ogr;.phie Society, found occasion to say that without

TilK .nek sheep always follows the white lights.
TENDONS, tarritYs, trusts, taxes, tmnpations and truths all
tantalize.
AFFEARANCES are deceitful, but disappearances are
usually moiv so.

SEWARD
Has the best prospects of any town in
the whole of Alaska: it is now a solid,
substantial community, because it is
the trade center of a mineral region,

and placer deposits of known value.
SEWARD
In brief, is surely destined to be the
most important city in Alaska. Its
ideal location; its fine harborage
facilities; its natural advantages as
the gateway to the great interior of
Alaska; its logical railway route to
the biggest aud best coal fields of
Alask—all combine to insure and aid
toward the building of a big city
