ALASKAN ROAD BUILT

Seward. Alaska, Sept. 16.-The first
unit of the United States government
commercial dock on the water front
here has been completed. Work on the
other units is progressing rapidly
with the view of having the entire
structure finished when the Seward
Fairbanks portion of the new United
States railroad is ready for operation
in the summer OF 1917.
Preparations are under way for the
sale, three weeks hence. of govern
ment lots along the water front. The
bench now is lined with small cabins
and other small structures. The lot
sale will give the owners of these an
opportunity to obtain home sites at
nominal figure.
Much of the beach land that is valu-
able for warehouse. factory and siding
purposes is to be leased in small tracts.
1t is understood that already several
locations are to be used for private
warehouse and other storage purposes
as we'll as factories.
