EDITORIAL
COOPERATION

A NEW feeling is coming into being between Seward and Anchorage. It would appear that the old enmity that has existed between the two towns giving rise to pickering and back-bit- ing is giving way before a spirit of CO., operation and good will.
 We hear that Anchorage is going to stand behind Seward to secure, for the latter, the capital of the Territory. The building of the government rail- road from Seward to the Interior has brought Seward in close touch with country which has been opened up by the railroad develops the center of to Seward And if the oil fields in western Alaska prove a success there will be no question about Seward be- ing the only logical place in the Ter ritory for the capital.
 Alaskans generally outside of the first division are coming to believe that the best interests of Alaska would be served by removing the capi- tai d little further from Seattle, which because of her meddling in Alaskan affairs has almost made herself the Fifth Division.
 The stakes are big and much can be gained by a little more good feeling and cooperation with our sister city up the line Seward has nothing to fear from Anchorage. The greater the city of Anchorage, the greater the benefit to Seward for Seward is the gateway through which most every thing must pass to get to Anchorage. The possibilities of this country are great; great enough for us all to pros- per by its development, so let's put our shoulder to the wheel and push things along Let them know up the line that we are ready to boost every thing and anything for the common good of all and if we can join hands in a general boost for this country, we shall all be repaid in the end.

MAIL ROUTE TO
 BE CHANGED IN
 SUMNER OF l922
All Interior Mail be Routed by Rail-
 road-Distributed from Nenana

Beginning next summer all the mail for interior Alaska points including the towns and settlements on the up per Yukon River and tributary sec tions, will be handled by the Govern ment Railroad through Anchorage and Seward and distributed at Nenana ac- cording to information received in Jul neau. No mail will be handled through Canadian Territory and on the Yukon by Canadian steamers after June 30th next year.
 The mail contract held by the White Pass companies covering Interior Al askan routes expires on June Both, 1922, and will not be renewed, it is stated from an authoritative source. Bids are under consideration cover ing three principal routes. One of these is from Nenana to Panama, one from Panama to Eagle and the third from Panama to St. Michael While details are lacking regarding the pro- posed service, it is expected that it will be established on a weekly basis. It is believed by the postal authori- ties that by dividing the water route into three divisions it will give indi- vidual owners of small vessels an op- portunity to compete for the service.
 The White Pass Company has an nounced that it will not operate yes sels on the Panama River during next season. It has also stated that it will make no effort to maintain any fixed schedule of the Yukon river between Eagle and St. Michael Reports re- ceived here also state that the same company will not send ship up the Koyukuk river as has been its prac- tice for number of years. As the company has operated the only steam CT to that district, unless other provls- ions are made, suspension of the ser vice will psobably work considerable hardship on the Koyukuk mining in dustry.
