ka, New private enterprises, some of them sizable, followed all this. None were as big, how ever, as the Alaska Central Rail road project.
 Then came talk of huge guam titles of copper, coal, and oil, and plans for their private ex- ploitation. Is it any wonder that people in Alaska said to each other this is it?" Is it any won der that they thought the lid was off, that the Territory would now be developed to the same extent as the Pacific NorthWest7
 Certainly the time was ripe, and all signs pointed toward Alaska Unlimited. In Katalla, for instance, oil and coal pros poets plus railroad plans brought about a new town, complete with bank, newspaper, hotels, stores, saloons, and shops At Valdez, the location of the military post, cable office, and division court sWclled the population to several times it's present size. At La touche, right at Stewards back door, workable copper deposits were discovered, and town was founded, with talk of huge smelter to work the ore, possibly a smelter located at Seward, In the Susitna River Valley, scores of important gold strikes kept prospectors and boomers coming through on every boat More re mOtely related, but still pointing to territorial prosperity, was the change from commercial cod fishing to modern salmon can ming, and the immense growth of the world market for canned Alaska salmon, which in 1880 had been practically unstable for human food.
 Is if any wonder that thou

sands of ambitious Americans, with few dollars of savings and flair for pioneering, were led to stake everything they owned on Alaska toWnsite properties? Although most of these boom towns soon became skeletons or ghost towns, Seward out-lasted them all, and consequently drew large numbers of disappointed men and women from Nome, Hope, Sunrise, Valdez and Ka- talla. In fact, some of Stewards old-timers can boast of being

MORE ABOUT Story Of Seward
Continued from Page D

All of this is important in understanding government poli- cy toward Alaska during the period of American ownership. It had never been the serious intention of the US. to develop Alaska in the same manner as California and the Pacific North west, by means of vast govern ment subsidies, such as grants of land to railroads; establish
 ment of large military and naval facilities; and the extension of governmental services to settlers wherever they might choose to locate. Alaska was, and in many respects still is, field for future rather than present develop ment. In fact. the Federal Gov ernment has actually fought against most attempts to devel- op Alaska, preferring to channel economic expansion to other parts of the Pacific area. Had it not been fer the discovery of gold and the Spanish War, it is very doubtful indeed that place like Seward could have begun at all. and this same thing was true of most other Alaska towns.
 In the course of the Spanish American War, the United States had acquired a southern baStion for the Pacific rim, as we'll as other island possessions formerly in the hands of Spain. Pacific commerce increased by leaps and bounds, guarded by the US Pacific Fleet, which had played a major role in the victory, and thereby maintained major in fluence in the coastal waters of the Orient Meantime, Imperial Russia, the first world power to attempt Pacific Rim coloniza- tiOn and commerce, had gradu- ally retired, starting with the abandonment of Fort F0ss in California, then the sale of Alas ka, and now, the humiliating de feats of the Russo-Japanesa war.
 Very briefly, that was the in ternational aspect of the Pacific in the early 19O0'S when Seward founded. Reading between the lines, it is possible to compre- bend why the United States was playing for far larger stakes than the development of the Ter ritory of Alaska Number one priority, naturally, went to the building of the Panama Canal, and the quickest possible eXpan-

sion of the ports of California and Puget Sound. Alaska could come later!
 Yet the Spanish American War itself provided a big boost to the growth of the Territory. Thousands of discharged officers and enlisted men, having had brief taste of travel and adven- ture, found the old home town pretty tame and pretty bare of opportunity. Spanish-American war veterans by the hundreds spent their savings in one-way tickets to Alaska. Public lands, otherwise jealously guarded, were opened to limited home stealing by these eX-soldiers. It will be remembered that one veteran, eX-Major John Ballaine, used his Homestead Scrip to ac- quire lions share of the pres ent toWnsite of Seward.
 AS to the discovery of gold in Alaska, it should be recalled that the phenomenal success of hy- draullc and stamp mill opera tions at Juneau and Douglas en- couragcd early development in the Kenai Peninsula. An early stampede, junior size. brought about the settlement of Sunrise and Hope, and made Cooks In let busy waterway, several years before the famous Klon- dike strike. After that, at least one major strike annually kept things humming in Alaska. Roughly, the years are as follows:
 1896-97 Cook Inlet
 1698-99 klondike
 1900-01 Nome
 1901-02 Panama.
 Between the major stampedes were scores of minor discoveries, each of which produced new mOVe mentS of men and supplies. and developed new routes of commerce and new sources of local trade Peaceful little trad ing posts, Indian villages, and cannery sites grew almost over night into roaring gold camps SkagWay, Dyea, Valdez, D1W- son, St. Michael. and Nome bus tied and boomed.
