WHAT AN OUTSIDE RA|LROADER THINKS
 ABOUT ALASKA E, E,
INSPECTOR FOR THE c. M. & ST. p. RY. SUBMITS
 PERSONAL OPINION

c. T. Spaulding, electrical inspector for the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul railroad, with headquarters at Deer Lodge, Mont, has been a visitor in Seward since Saturday but only eysterday did The Gateway discover who the modest and unassuming chap was. Upon discovering he was a rail- road man, The Gateway took occa- sion to ask him his views on Alaska and the Alaska Railroad and in reply Mr. Spaulding wrote the following:
 Replying to your inquiry as to a railroad mans opinion of Alaska, we wish to say that it is certainly won- derland and a paradise for the fisher man and hunter; it's rugged mountains, streams and numerous glaciers make it an ideal place to spend summer vacation.
 we are especially impressed with the Alaska Railroad arfd the efficient service it renders the public; a rail- road operated through rugged noun tainous country menaced by high water periods, landslides, living gla- ciers, etc., maintaining it's schedules and running specials to connect with boats reflects much credit upon the management. After spending few hours in the shops at Anchorage we were especially impressed with the fa- cilities for doing little of everything in the mechanical line which is ne cessary due to the isolated territory in which the railroad operates.
 "Mr. H. B. Earling, our western representative of the Chicago, Mill waukee and St. Paul railroad, who sailed on the Yukon August 1, passed favorable comment on the Alaska Rail- road while' here. He expressed satis- faction of the service rendered the public and the great asset that the railroad is at this time and will be in the future in developing the resources of Alaska.
 Being associated with an electrified railroad in the States, Mr. Earling was impressed with the great possibilities of hydroelectric generation of power in Alaska and predicts great strides in this direction in the future.
 "We regret not finding our c. M. < St. P. Ky. advertised in your valuable publication as we. give service second to none from Puget Sound cities to all points east, and when we return we will 60 our best to have our line reg ularly mentioned in the columns or The Gateway.
