>K\\ \UD. \LASKA. WEDNESDAY, JULY 7, 1015.
What does Seward think of the idea of holding a celebration in each town
of the territory at different periods io observe the semi-centennial of the pur
chase of Alaska?
This is the proposal that has been made at a meeting at Sitka at which
the secretary of the Alaska Bureau of the Seattle chamber of commerce was
present. Some time soon that representative will get around to Seward and I
we might as well make up our minds in time what our course will be. Wheth
er the proposal emanated from a Seattle source or not cannot be told. Seattle,
of course, would have the big celebration and small local celebrations through
out Alaska would be quite an advertisement for the sound city, but of what
advantage would they be to the Alaska towns? There is nothing to be gam
ed by opposing any idea that Seattle might have, and there is no contrary in
tention in speaking this way, but we might as well look ahead.
The booming of town lots at Anchorage by the government seems to
have struck other people as it struck us. It surely does seem funny to see
the representatives of the people try in g to sell something that belongs to the
people to the people and at the largest price they can get from the people.
The Cordova Times of a recent date says:
“The fact that the government is advertising the lots at Anchorage with
all the ardor and zeal of a private real estate agent, may seem all right to
the officials themselves, but it hardly makes a hit with the average Alaskan
who has spent the best years of his life developing the territory, to see th*
officials trying to bring people with money here from the states to attend a
land sale, with the probable result that the Alaskan will never be able to bid
against them unless they put a money value on his experience and value to
the country.”
