CHRISTENSEN
TO ARRANGE
FORSCHOOLS
Manager of Industrial and
I^and Department
Sees Busy Year
Andrew Christensen, manager of
the land and industrial department of
the government railroad, arrived from
Anchorage on tho train last night, en
route to Juneau, to confer with the
educational authorities in regard to
school affairs at Anchorage and other
new towns which will be springing up
from time to time along the line of
the railroad.
“There is every evidence of a most
prosperous season for the interior
sections," said Christensen. “Traffic
on the line is so great to and from
Anchorage and farming sections north
of there that the passenger. coaches
are often unable to accommodate the
crowd.
“Four seams of good coal have been
developed on the holdings of the Fska
Creek company," he continued, “and I
believe that two of these will be
mined extensively. It is the intention,!
if possible, to ship some coal out of
Anchorage this summer.
At noon Christensen was the guest I
at luncheon of a committee of the J
Chamber of Commerce, and spoke en-1
thusiastically of Seward’s future as a
fishing center.

them useful the people must work
