ALASKAN CLIMATE IDEAL

Contrary to preconceived notions of the cheechacho, Alaska's climate, es- pecially in the vicinity of the coast, is ideal We have no extremes of heat or cold; we have no heavy gales; no torrential rains, and no deep snows. Thunder storms are unknown, and deaths from epidemics are unknown. During the past two years there has been no infant mortality in Seward, it's younger generation being a sturdy, healthful and independent bunch of young Americans.
Seward daily gateway., 1923-07-12
SEWARD A RISING YOUNG CITY

Seward has a population of about 1000, and a total vote of 332. IL is governed by a mayor and six council men, three of whom are elected an nually. It has fine school system, the town paying 25 per cent of the to- tai cost of the schools, and the Terri tory 75 per cent. Taxes are two per cent on about one-third It has a bank with assets aggregating over S3O0000; modern lighting plant, two sawmills, cold storage plant, cannery, Standard Oil tanks, daily newspaper, five hotels, five restaurants, two bar bershops, two hardware stores, two clothing stores, three groceries, sash and door factory, railway machine shops, one jewelry store, one bakery two newsstands and curio shops, one garage, three auto sales agencies, a blacksmith shop, transfer, coal depot lumber yard, boat building establish ment, large department store, circu- lating libraries, four churches, and numerous small industries. It has a customs office, federal building, the atre building, and a hospital.
 It's water system is one of the best in the Territory, mains reaching to every section of the city, and the sup ply furnished by the everlasting snows of the mountain nearby.

NATURE LAVISH WITH GIFTS

Natures limner has favored Seward beyond any other locality. Here the emerald sides of the lofty mountains merge into the ermine of the eternal snows; her pinnacles and peaks are topped by cerulean skies of azure and the greys, browns and greens merge into a kaleidoscopic painting equalled only by the Grand Canyon of the Colo rado. Limpid rivulets tumble turbu- lently to the sea; rushing rivers and grooming glaciers vie in calling the at tention of the tourist and traveller; an ever-shifting panorama of gorgeous hues greet the eye. In our valleys the grasses are sprinkled with flowers, in blues, in whites and in yellows, making a carpet fit to be trod by the gods of Olympus.
 At Stewards door, or rather in her front yard, stretch inexhaustible sup plies of halibut, cod and salmon; clans, crabs and other shellfish are prolific producers of revenue, and the hills are storehouses of minerals, awaiting the transforming touch of transportation to add to the potential wealth of Alaska. With its self-reliant population there is no limit to the lengths Alaska can go in our produc- ton of wealth. With coal, iron, pre- cious metals, pulp, lumber, timber and an unlimited fisheries production, we are only concerned in preserving our resources, and in realizing a compe- tency from those we loose.
 Alaskans are a patient, forbearing, generous, and hospital people. They have thrown their resources into the laps of outside capital with an un- stinted hand, asking only that it be not wasted. They have built a do- main of wealth rivalling that of Col conda of the Indies. Now that their efforts have fructifed and have bour- geoned into success, Alaskans ask for a full Territorial form of government established under the generous tute- lage of our paternal government, at least until our period of adolescence is at an end.
 We are not foreign race, nor are we interested in foreign schisms and creed. We are loyal, lawful Ameri- cans, with an abiding faith in our flu ture and our minds attuned to the needs of our country.
