WHAT HOBEN MAS TO SAY.
“Seward looks good to me,” said
Harry Hoben the othey night when a
few friends had gathered together and
were talking over the outlook for a
good season. “To my notion, con
tinued Mr. Hoben, ‘’the outlook for
this camp never has been as bright as
it is at the present time. Our mines
and natural resources are looking bet
ter this spring than they ever have be
fore, but that is because the parties
who are operating them have had time
to do some real development work.
They will be employing good sized
crews this summer and taking out
some money and that in itself will
make a big difference to the town.
“And the railroad situation. At last
it looks as though we were going to
have a railroad. President Wilson
lias started out to take Alaska out of
the goat class and from now on, instead
of a place to send misfits to practice
theories and try out visionary experi
mental ideas, it looks its though Alaska
is going to get treatment such as any
governing country should extend to a
growing commonwealth. 1 have been
around this section of Alaska quite a
bit in the last twenty years and am
fairly faraiiar with the topography of j
this part of Alaska, and I can’t see;
where the government will start to I
build from, if not from Seward. We
have everything here that a terminal
should have, and I do not think we
need fear but what when the time
comes, Resurrection bay will be the
place selected for the terminal of the
Government built railroad. I think it
is safe to say that that is the opinion
of half of the population of Alaska to
day, and from what I can learn it is
also the general consensus of opinion !
on the outside, too. There will doubt
less be a big rush of people to this
part of Alaska this summer and I will
be glad to see them come. This is a big
country and there are miles and miles i
of it that has not been even scratched ;
over, and with an increased population, j
we can look for some great develop-1
ment here. Yes, Seward looks good
to me and it is looking better every
day.” _
