NEEDS OF DEPUTY COLLECTOR
 CUSTOMS AT SEWARD

The Seward Chamber of Commerce should ask Collector McBride for the appointment of deputy collector of customs at Seward. The need for such an official is imperative. One day this week the Canadian steamship James Car-uthers, halibut boat, entered nort from the haiibut banks, with part of a cargo of fish. The prlnclpal oo- feet in coming to Seward was to make repairs on the vessels machinery which was out of order.
 Upon arrival here, finding the fepalr would take longer than at 1lrst real ized the captain sold his partial eaten of fisb to the local cold storage. Upon which violation of the law the vessel was seized bv Federal authorities up- on orders from the collector of GUS toms at Juneau. While there was technical violation of the law II was fo ~the best interests of all concerned as to have allowed several thousand hounds of edible fish to rot ana De thrown overheard would have been far greater crime.
 Had there been a deputy collector Of customs here a few telegrams oI eA- planation would have saved expense to the boat and the consequent enl- harrsssment attendant upon its selZ- ure. Capt. Carruthers, upon lanolhs here and finding conditions for pro viding for the needs of his vessel stat od thai he would be glad to call at Seward for his coal on future trlps.. u will cause the loss of many dollars lo the town should these halibut fishers be persecuted until they refuse to make this port of call.
 A man should be placed here access sihle to seamen at all times, who Will ,- nov.rs to enter ana clear all yes sels entering port, where these ships are of foreign register. If there is to be any market worked up for the sale of Alaska coal, it must be worked up through Seward, ana to Iuflhef tiiio It is of vital importance that a deputy collector of customs be stationed here.
 Cordova, with but small part Of the shipping that enters Seward Harbor' has a deputy collector. Why this dis elimination against Seward. We be- lieve that if this matter is properly
  presented to Mr Mcbride, collector of customs for Alaska, he will assist Sew ard every way in his power to secure a deputy.
 This matter should be taken up at once before the shipping season con- mences. Seward is destined to do a big business coaling vessels, and should be prepared.

THE completion of the road from Seward to Kenai Lake will see the shores of this splendid body of water dotted with homes of ranchers and pleasure seekers The lake is one of the largest in this part of Alaska, be- ing about 25 miles in length and in places from three to five miles wide.
 Kenai river runs from the Lake into Skilak lake, from which in turn Cook Inlet may be reached. This route of fers natural waterway to the inlet, which though turbulent in spots, can be traversed by small boats. From Roosevelt a station on the lake, launch es may be taken to thf lower end Of Skilak lake with comparative safety. The soil adjoining the lake is rich and could support many families.

ECHO OF H0lOUP
AFFAIR IS HEARD

An echo of the holdups on the
Union avenue viaduct on the night Of
January 2s. which room thereafter
was the cause OF pistol duel be-
tween hold-ups and police officers.
during which two officers were wound
ed and Earl Harrison was killed,
floatcd into the Pueblo county clerks
office yesterday on tho wings of the
United States mail.
A letter from Albert L. Murray.
Ia Block p. enclosed n bank check
signed by County Clerk william Bar
Der for the sum OF SO cents and made
payable to Victor Sincovitz. Mr..
Murray stated in his letter that tho
check was found by his son Calvin,
floating about the street.
This check was for the amount of
rebate on an automobile license for
1879: 1t was written and given to
Sincovi,x on January 20.
On the evening of January 90 tho
pocket book of Sincovitx containing
his automobile license Identification.
$3.50 in silver and this check was
taken from him by hold-ups on the
Union avenue viaduct.
1t seems that he was held up and
robbed before tho colored men who
called attention OF the police to tho
robbers. SincovitZ called the next
day and secured from the clerks Of
fico a duplicate Identification card.
Tho check was undoubtedly thrown
away by tho holdup who appropriate
cd tho money no doubt.
And II would seem to go without
saying that the man who was killed
during the pistol duel had a compan.
ion as tho men hold up stated. for
the check later found was not In his
possession when shot. nor had he Ind
time to go thru the pocketbook of
Sincoviez IL It had fallen into his pos
session.
A watch chain made entirely OF
native gold nuggets linked together.
and valued at $l25. was not taken
from him by the hold-ups.
