LOOKING
Alaskan progress of the past forecasts the future greatness of
the Northland, and justifies all Alaskans in holding to their firm
faith in the Territory’s possibilities and worth. By aiming high and
working together—actively and steadily—those having to do with Al
askan progress can accomplish much. “Looking Ahead’’ to still great
er things, and planning and working accordingly, is the one way that
a high purpose can be realized.
The Alaska Railroad—a pioneer system—is gradually and pain
stakingly striding towards a great goal—the greater development of
Alaska; and that the future is bright and promising is attested by
the steady and consistent upward trend of past and present activi
ties. The Alaska Railroad is “Looking Ahead.”

A communication from Capt. O. A.
i
Johansen, master of the steamer
Starr, who is1 probably the best posted
of all mariners relative to navigation,
needs in this and Westward waters,
was read at the Chamber of Com
merce meeting, at the Seward Crill
yesterday, in which he stressed the
importance of Resurreetiotn bay to
not only the fishing banks but as a
harbor of refuge. Quite frankly he
wrote, Resurrection bay is the closest
to the banks and the safest harbor
in the world. The latter statement
would be doubly so providing the pro
posed lighthouse is erected on the
South point of Rugged Island. Upon
Captain Johansen’s return from the
Westward it is hoped he will consent
to the publication of his letter "which
contains statements of facts and de
tails unknown to the average person.
