tablishde at.Cordova and Seward anc
possibly Anchorage, although Post
master Wood has not received definite
information with respect to such ar
establishment at this point. Postmas
ter Root, of Seward, is sending oul
pamphlets, issued by the postmaster
general, giving information in regarc
to these fiduciary concerns, as fol
lows:

j have more than one account either al
; the same office or at different offices.

“KNUTE” TO OPEN A
STEAM LAUNDRY
! _
(Seward Post)
N. W. Pilger, who recently disposed
of his interests at Anchorage, has ac
quired a new name and from now on
|j prefers to be known as “Knute.” His
previous title was “Northwest” Pil
ger, but he says “Knute,” which was
bestowed upon him on his arrival here,
has its advantages. Pilger is on his
way outside to purchase a steam laun
dry equipment, and will return to An
chorage this spring.

A story sent out from Seward ant
published in The Great Divide, a Den
ver, Colorado, monthly, deals with th<
government railway project in Alas
ka. It is from the pen of one “Jacl
Jungmeyer,” and follows:
“The Seward-Fairbanks govern men
railroad is hated by most of the peoplt
it is being built to benefit. Practically
every old-time Alaskan in this sectior
sneers at it. Its builders are being re
| viled, and the curious thing is that th«
grubstaker,-small miner and ordinary
business man is, even more vitupera
tive than the agents of the big inter
ests that see Alaska slipping froir
their hands.
“The reason is that the Unitec:
States railroad is being economically
; built. There is no lavish expenditure;
i no waste; .no back pickings.
“Many of the old-timers hereabouts
expected to wallow in comparative
wealth, easily draiqgd from the gov
ernment coffers. Merchants find they
cannot dump any old thing into the
commissary at top prices. Merit is
demanded of the employes, hard work
and efficiency of the station contrac
tors, and square dealing of the pur
veyors furnishing the supplies.
"The appropriations given the en
gineering commission, these seekers
of a soft thing have learned, is not a
pork barrel.
“The line out of Seward and An
chorage, so far as I can learn, is be
ing built on a strictly business pro
gram. The reconstruction of the Alas
ka Northern, now the Seward divi
• sion of the road, is being pushed
! through by R. J. Weir, engineer in
charge under the estimate. The same
is true, so far as I can learn, of the
Anchorage division, in charge of Lieu
tenant Mears. The general contrac
j tor—the middleman of railroad build
i ing—has been eliminated in this pro
| ject, the government engineers letting
j out the station work direct to the
| small contractors.
“In the declining days of the old
•Alaska Northern a lax system of dis
I posing of its commissary supplies and
surplus equipment prevailed at Sew
ard. Several merchants here got their
start in business in purchasing wagon
loads of material for a few dollars.
‘They expected the same thing from
us,’ said R. J. Weir, engineer in
! charge, ‘and they have became soured
on us because we insist on doing busi
ness in a businesslike way.’
“Many of the old ‘sourdoughs’ ex
pected easy jobs with big pay from
the commission. They felt the gov
l eminent owed them a pension for hav
| ing opened up the country, borne or
1 them have taken station contracts, but
I practically none of them will work by
I the day at any wage. They’d rather
i wait for a grubstake and prospect the
hills. And while they wait they jeet
the ‘cheechaco’ who has come in from
the outside to work on Uncle Sam's
1,000-mile rail line.
“In Seward the commission is be
ing criticized because it has not erect
ed a showy freight and passenger de
pot, even though the exact terminus of
the road has not yet been determined
nor traffic begun.
“The private transportation com
panies, charging Uncle Sam the full,
high freight rates they exact from
others in carrying steel and supplies,
hate the United States railroad build
ers because they are now using gov
ernment vessels to bring in material.
“All this hatred is going to be pow
erfully reflected at Washington in an
endeavor to retard and muddle the
completion of the Seward-Fairbanks
road.
“Every visitor of consequence to
Alaska this summer has been filled up
with it in the expectation that he will
disseminate it back in the states. And
behind it all is a very active propa
ganda on the part of the few big inter
ests, who foresee in the coming of the
government railroad the end of their
greedy activities. They are organizing
the little ‘sourdough’ dissatisfaction

they had muddled the building of the
