NATION IS DRY
BUT SHIPYARD
IS VERY WET
OAKLAND. Calif., Sept.. 4— The
United States may be “dry” but Oak
land ship launchings will be “wet” for
some years to come. To this end the
shipyard owners of this city have laid
in a supply of California champagne
to be used at christenings. This- step
was taken in deferences to sea super
stitions.
“We had to do it.” said George A.
Aimes, pr sident of the Moore ship
building company. “Sailors will not go
to sea »*n a ship that has not had-a
bottle of w: ie broken over its prow af
; it> hum him \ is a hoodoo ship. 1:
would-be difficult for us to sell our
ships’if they were not-christened ac
I cording to <jllstom.
IM “ shipyard owners stocKeu up
svine only after they had procured ad
vice of attorneys. The lawyers held
ihetv wtuihl he no.violation of law bo
| cause the wine “was neither sold, nor
civen away,, but thrown away."
Oakland nearly had a “dry" christ
enuiK* recently at the launching of the
City ef Berkeley, a Liberty I.oan hon
or ship. It's namesake city. Hovkole'u
:n:joining Oakland, is the seat of the
C uve’sity of California and therefore
“dry" by local option and state on
i mcnt. IVtitions against chnsteninn:
th' vessel with wine were circulated,
with suprpfestions as substitutes of
rr.'ik. trimmer ale. pfrape juice and car
bonated water.
Apparent y (Officials o; the X r.u>:
Corstruction company, in whose ynr 1
the vessel was built, acquiesced in th
ft mapd of th*' "drys*. but when th*
rihbi»n-\vrappe*l bott]£ was smash* -'
ai ahnst the prow, there was a fizz arid

FACTS ABOUT SEWARI)
_ _ \
Seward is situated on Resurrection Day, midway of
the coast line of the Gulf of Al aska and WO miles from
ruute of the Pacific steamers to the Orient.
The various ti'ade routes of the North Pacific Ocean.
0 ,’d all the roads and highways and trails and mountain
1 isses from the interior converge at this-point much as ii
n iture had anticipated the need ot a gateway thiough
which the trade and travel of a great region might tind
convenient passage.
The deep, perfectly protected harbor presents an ob
long surface embracing forty square miles, upon which
a iy ship that floats may sail in safety at any time, and
w hich in appearance suggests n ithing so much as a beauti
fid inland lake.
The mainland and shores < 1 Resurrection supply am
p’e space and perfect topography for the building of a city
o; w hatever extent future needs; may develop; and this cir
c instance, added to its natural position as a gateway to
the interior, and the freedom from ice at alt sea^ons[bt thc„
h irbor and adjacent waters lead the government to select
t! is port as the ocean terminal for the railroad. The .un
j; ailed coal and ail and mineral resources of Alaska yvj.ll
fi >w through this port to enter the commerce of the world,
a id in return will coble the supplies tor distribution oyei
a territory greater in extent than many state combined,
ti us making it the great port ot the North Pacilic 01 the
NEW YORK OF ALASKA.
