SEWARD MEN
ARE PEEVED
AT OFFICIALS
-- |
i
Col. Frederick Mears, who is a pas- '
senger aboard the steamer Alameda
en route to Anchorage from a trip to
Washington, is to be met upon his
arrival at Seward by a grievance com
mittee from its chamber of commerce,
the result of a short session of fire
works which were set off when the
^secretary, H. E. Ellsworth, made the
fofiowing statement:
"I believe that we should take the
bull by the horns, go to the mat and
see what is wrong with the present
system of the Mears-goverument rail
road. Mears has taken about every
thing he could away from Seward and
moved it to Anchorage; promised to
run trains on schedule, and then when
a few government men were pas
sengers on steamers, held the trains
to their convenience and discommod
ed scores of real men. those building
up the country. Employees have been
ordered to do this and that, showing
favor to Anchorage and may other
things, including a higher freight rate
from out the line, a few miles than
prevails from Seward to Tacoma by
steamer. These are only a few things
reported as grievances against the
Resent A. E. C., and T believe that a
grievance committee should be ap
pointed to take matters up direct with
Mears.’*
