A STRANGER’S VIEWS.
Dave Mutchler came to Seward day
before yesterday to meet Ins wife, who
arrived last night on the Northwest
ern. ITp in the interior where we
used to know Dave lit* has the reputa
tion of being one of the best transpor
tation nu n in the game. Dave’s busi
ness is moving things anil making
things move, ami be has never been
accused of lacking in action or getting
action on anything he starts. Al! day
yesterday he spent in looking around
the town, and last night we thought it
might be a good idea to get the views
of a stranger, so we approached him
and asked him what he thought about
Seward. He said: “You know, l like j
this town already and wish that I could j
stop off here for a while and look
around. I’ve hearu a lot about Sew
ard up iti the interior, in fact it s about
the only town on the coast that we do i
hear about up there. There has been
a lot of talk about this place in the
Iditarod, and as soon as the govern
ment let the contract for the carrying
of the interior mail from this town,
that was enough for us. We knew
what the government thought of Sew
ard, and it’s a cinch that when they
start to build a railroad they wili start
right here, and 1 can see no reason
whv anyone would think different.
% *
have been in Valdez and Cordova and
they are out of the running altogether
according to my views. In the first
place neither one of them have a har
bor, and again it is almost impossible
to get out of either town, even with a
dog team. This place has the best
harbor and the best townsite that I j
have ever seen in Alaska, and then you
have some country behind it. 1 was
surprised to learn of the mining ac-;
tivitv that vou have behind vou. Why i
you are in a raining country from the j
time you cross ltainy pass until you '
get to Seward. There is the Cache j
creek country, the Willow creek dis-j
trict, Crow creek, Hope, Sunrise and »
all the mines that are along the line
to mile 71. And then that Matanuska
coal country. Why this is the only |
way possible to get in there and you ;
can bet that Tnele Sam has his eye on
that coal tielil when he starts to build.
You bet T like your town and I like
the looks of things around here, and as
soon as I get back I am going to make \
arrangements for one of us boys to get«
out here and get located. There is j
bound to he a big boom here this sum- j
mer, and I always like to be where the ;
money is, so don’t be surprised to see j
me stick a sign up right here in this j
town of Seward soon.”
