MR. sIMENsTEp COMPLAINS

Charles Simensted of Valdez k cred ftad by the Portland Telegram with complaining that Seattle papers are advertising Seward as the best town in Uni, part of Alaska, and he offered the trade of Valdez Co Portland K the Wcbfo3t city would only take it.. Mr. Simcn~tcd says the Seattle papers credit everything to Seward which comes this way. "although as a matter of fact the bulk of the cargo k booked for Valdez"
 Dear Mr. SimeuSted, you are to be commended for sticking up for your town. \ man who won't shinny on his own side ought to be put out of the church, but did you "hoIer' when the Edith sailed last August with 2loo tons of steel. locomotive and six cars for the Alaska Central at Seward and Iio crro,oted piles for John RoScnc'S new townsite wharf at Valdez, and both big Seattle paper, under top heads an- uouuced that the steamer was taking the entire cargo to Valdez for Mir, Ro,cue's new railroad:
 Repeatedly the Seattle papers have mentioned large cargocs destined for Seward a, going to Valdez. several times stating that the freight was for rne Alaska Central at Valdez Thi, wa, done SD often that eastern papers frruuentIy stated tha, tho railroad wa,buIding from Valdez The Seattle paper, have lately been informed
 Seward has mo quarrel with Valdez. Tr, growth win never interfere with chat of Seward and itS prosperity will redound to tine advantage of all Alaska as will that oG every other community Thf, town wants no credit for anything which belongs to it, ucighbors, but it does want credit for all that k due to itself Until recently it neverrccejvcd such credit
 Incidentally taking up the claim that "the bulk" of steamer curgOeS are de- ,tfued for Valdez, the records of the steamship yompaujc, show, aN recently published in Valdez papers, that a Nuremorc than 5000 tons of freight were carried by steamer into Valdez in che first nine month, of 1905. In the same time about 2o,u0o tons were car ried ro Seward on the same steamers.
 1.-the bulk" of freight carried this way by steamship lines k for Valdez why ha, the Northwestern Steamship Company, whose president iS said to be building railroad out of Valdez, and who |, laying oT a new townsite in that locality. decided to run three steamers by the outside passage direct 10 Sew ard next year, allowing them to return by way O. Valdez?
 It was rash. also, for Mr.. Simensted ra tell ,nc Telegram. if he did that rhr Alaska Central has "aboUt thirty mile, constructed" when it had forty five at the hour of his interview.

HARD LINES FOR RUSSIA

Russia seems Co be in a fair way to repeat the history of France in the las, decade of the eighteenth century, with Wirc in the role of Mirabeau. Tine trouble with these nations whose ruling cla,,c, trample upon human rights for centurie, seems to be that neither side knows when to quit The aristocracy never give up an iola of privilege except upon peril of their lives, and when the proletariat gets a taste of power it k like the taste of blood Co a hungry wolf.
 In Russia. as in revolutionary France, a few far-seeiug statesmen and philosophers could pull the chariot of state out of the mire with the assist ance of either side, but neither ariS- tocracy nor commonalty has sense enough to give and take. In Russia, s in France, the immediate result iS likely to be chaos, anarchy, riotouS bloodshed and brutality.
 If France had followed Voltaire be- fore the Revolution, or Alirabeau after it was under way the Terror would have been avcrted. If Russia had listened to Tolstoi these twenty years OF would follow WiJtc today it could avoid similar fate tbat seems i'm pending.
 Probably it is not in human nature that barbarism should be uprooted eX- cept by barbaric processes. Men are guided somewhat by reason in lands which have known something of jus tice. Reason seems to have no place in lands which have never known it.

Comes Here to Stay

."H. A. Ingalls, another Nome man, is here with his family, and intends to make Seward his future home. He is a great hustler. Before people gener- ally knew of his presence here he had bonded the Falls creek properties and several choice business lots and left for the outside, returning quite recently.
 Joe LcClair another recent arrival, was one of the pioneers of the Nome goldfelds and made a handsome stake there. He says this country looks good to him.
 "A. D. Wentworth and Free Pelton, formerly of the Kougarok district near Nome, are here. and will go to the hills when the weather permits. A.. D. McLennan came down from the Candle Creek country and will cast his fortunes with Kenai peninsula. Bill Eagles is frontiersman who has prospected from Siberia to Peru. He is now here and will remain. A. Ericson came down from Nome on the Corwin and has already located good prospect. He has prospected in the Klondike and in Siberia"

SOME ARCTIC WINTER

The Frozen North" in this part of th, world recrGrS like wild animals before the advance of civilization. Probably every man now living in Seward imagined when he was a boy back in "thr state" that jc7bcrgS per- psually crashed against the shores of southern Alaska with polar bears climbing and sliding over them.
 Recent arrivals in Seward, even coming with the assurance chat this region i, exempt from the tcmors of che Arctic winter have been greatly surprised ,ha, they have no need of 30 North Pole outf, to go out of doors tn safety. Immigrants from Puget Nouuu wear the same clothing they did there and men aImo~. constantly go about tbc streets without oyercoat, as they do ou the Sound
 The Seattle posr-IntelIigcncer was so impressed with the record of temp crature in Seward recently published that ir gave ,nr figures an cditorta, calling attention Co the fact that throughou, last winter the mercury never reached zero, and comparmg the climatic showing with that of th. state, below the for,toth parallel eas, of the Rockies.
 Seward i, pleased toassure the bo~,- Intelligencrv ,ua, nothing ha, been handed out by the weather bureau sine. rhr last return, went down from the north which require, mod.aca- tfon of it, estimate of the southern Alaska climate. The town has had one week of winter. tine first week of December. in which the lowest temp era,urc recorded was 2 degrees above zero an tn. average about lo Since then i, ha, had t.ot and half of snow. which by temperature almost steadily above Juv freezing point and iularmittcu, rains ha, been reduced Go to few .uca., and ou the eve o. Christmas ], rapidly going.
 In one particular Seward has 80 c..- mate yquu,G uy few localities in the civilized world. Ir iS absolutely free from extreme fluctuations of temPera- ture. Puget Sound boast, of a climate free from violent change, but Seward has aImos, as wide a margin over the Sound in tha, respect as the Sound has over rhc Middle West.
 The ordinary daily range of winter temperature in Seattle is from lo to 20 d ,ree-. and sometimes reaches 30 dc- grees. In Seward during November and December the daily range ha, rarely been as high as 10 degrees. Several times the range has been less than that in an entire week and she daily range has frequently been only or ? degrees. During the thir- teen days from December n lo Deem ber 23 the mercury has been steadily between 33 and 42-ouly 9 degrees variation and every hour above the freezing point.

Means Much to Seward

"The advent into this section of such q man as Charles D. Lane means much to this community, as his judgment in matters pertaining to mines and min ing has great influence, being founded on wide experience. He has made a large fortune in mining and has ample means to carry to success ful conclusion anything he undertakes
 "The find on Falls creek is yet only a good prospect, but force of hard rock miners is now at work on the property and it is confidently expected that mine of great value will be developed.
 "Within the past two months many mining men from various parts of the nomhland have come to Seward, attracted chiefly by the Falls creek discovery. Among them may be men toned Theo. Allen, mining expert well known in the west, and son-in-law of Charles D. Lane. He recently resigned the position of manager of the Wild Goose Mining Company, the largest concern in the Nome district. He left Seward on the Oregon, but ex- poets to return in the early spring, as he expresses himself as well pleased with the prospects of this section. Y. NJ. Lane, brother of C. D. Lane is experimenting the prospect work on Falls creek. He is practical miner of wide experience and recognized oIilffy
