Seward' is situated 0:1 Resurrection Hay, midway of
. .. the coast line of the Gulf of Alaska and lJtJO miles from
‘ route of the Pacific steamers.to the Orient.
The various trade routes of the North Pacitic Ocean,
a id all the roads and highways and trails and mountain .
passes front the interior converge at this point much as <t
nature had anticipated the need ot a gateway tluough
which the trade and travel of .a great.region might find.
convenient passage. .
The deep, perfectly protected harbor presents an oh-,
li ng surface embracing forty square * miles, upon which
any ship that floats may sail in salety at any time, and
v hich in appearance suggests nothing so much as a beauti
ful inland lake. . ■"
The mainland and .shores of Resurrection supply am-,
pie space and perfect topog-rap. y lor the building ot a city
0.' whatever extent future need ; may develop; and this ch -
i' lmstance, added to its natur< I position as a gateway to
tne interior, and the freedom from ice at all seasons of the
harbor and adjacent waters le; d the government to select
tnis port as the ocean terminal for the railroad. The un
limited coal and oil and-mineral resources of Alaska wdl
1 iow through this port to enter the commerce of the world,
a id in return will come the supplies for distribution over
a territory greater in extent ti.an many state combined,
t tus making it the great port of the North Pacific or the
N EW,YORK OF ALASKA.
