SEWARD. ALASKA. SATURDAY, JUNE 2rt. 1913.
W hen the government comes to erect its mining experiment station the
choice of any other place than Seward would be a mistake. By the construc
tion of the railroad Seward is made the central city ot Alaska. A city in the
interior, oven in the very center of the interior, could not be so central as
Seward in an industrial sense. Owing to the geographical conditions the
most central town of the territory must be on the coast and in a central
portion of the coast. Seward i> almost perfectly situated between the ex
treme southeast of Alaska and the great sea coast of Seward peninsula. It
will also be within easy distance of Fairbanks and the thousands of miles
of territory along the Yukon river when the rail road is in opeiation. lo
place Seward further in towards the interior would take it away' from Nome,
Ketchikan, Juneau and the other coast towns. Of course, Valdez or Cordova
would be just us well situated if they were termini of the government railroad
or any other railroad to the interior, but as they . re not, Seward alone is left
as the most central point for the location of mining stations or any other
institution meant for the use of all Alaska.
News gathering is a peculiar thing. Some times great events take place
and the minor occurrences are crowded out. A quiet, uneventtul poiiod ai
rives and large space is given to some trivial happening which at another
time would not be mentioned. It is an old saying that a man has often gain
ed fame because an editor was short ot dope.
Some days ago a telegraphic dispatch came to this paper telling how
an automobile had chased a cougar near Mount Rainier nnd that when the
car passed the animal suddenly the ladies aboard the auto screamed. The
momentous fact that the ladies screamed was suppressed in the printed ac
count although the news cost money. On the assumption that two ladies
were in the car each scream must have qpst the Gateway about seven cents.
At times people do not understand why one story gets more space than a
story which is more important. Also little misunderstandings occur because
one person gets a longer notice than another, but it can all be accounted for
by the condition of the news barometei.
TWO MEN EOI ND DEAD.
From the Whitehorse Star of June
18th, we take the following:
The dead and practically airdried
bodies of A. L. Dominv and Thos.
Boyd were found three weeks ago in
separate but adjoining cabins, near
the mouth of Swift creek, on the
right limit of the Hootalinqua river
about 80 miles above Hootalinqua
post. Joe Brewer, a pioneer prospect
or and trapper, who makes his home
ten miles up the river from Swift
creek, where he has a mink ranch,
made the gruesome discovery, having
been requested by the police to make j
search for the two men, neither of j
whom had been seen since they left
here together, bnt each in his own
boat, on the 31st of August, 1913.
Dr. F. M. Boyle arrived here from
Valdez on the Alameda.
Amongst the passengers coming on
the Northwestern is Mi'S. A. McDon
ald, the wife of Agent McDonald, of
the Alaska Steamship company.
George Maynard, ot the Nome
Nugget, ami his family will go out
side by way of Seward on the next
trip of the Victoria.

RECEPTION TO BISHOP LUCCOCK
An informal reception was given at
the M E. church to Bishop Luccock,
his daughters Ethel and Natalie, and
Rev. R. C. Blackwell, of Juneau, sup- j
erintendcnt of Alaska missions of the
M. E. church. A very pleasant and
helpful social time was enjoyed by
the large number attending. Mrs. ^
McNeer added to the pleasure by
rendering several numbers on the
piano. Refeshments were served and
all enjoyed the evening.
Owing to an oversight by the Film
Supply Company, Lucille Love will
not be shown at the Casino tonight.
The attraction for tonight is a three
reel feautre, “Sleeping Beauty” taken
from the story in Grim’s Fairy Tales.
