^ tth every available house in
town already occupied and the hotels
crowded to the point of overflow.nr.
the accommodation of additional ar
rivals in Ne.nana presents a problem
tr.a: is i>ecom..-•a mere seriou. daily.
It s quite apparent that somethin 2
should he done jjnd done promptly,
to take care of the newcomers, but
it is not so easy to say what shotii j
oe aone 10 meet tfie situation.
j he New; believes that the build
ine' of low-priced cabins, close to
the business section of team, would
prove a steady source of income
for asufficiently loner period to war
rant such an investment- The popu
ation of Ner.ana may be swelled a
little beyond normal proportions
during the coming1 summer but
there is no reason to believe the
town "Will ever be le^s popuius titan
tt was during the last winter, when
cl: of the more desirable houses in
town were occupied, Ar.d the odd?
are in favor of a larger population
ir. the winters to come, after Xenar.a
shall bate become permanently es
tablished as a genera! supply cente”.
with avenues of trade radiating in
every direction.
A dozen new- houses would not1
be ico many z< a starter, and it
has been suggested that tents could
be used for emergency require
ments during the summer, at rea
sonable rentals. But there must be
some kind of housing provision
made, for otherwise it will not be
possible to accommodate additional
families. And it is The families that
count most in town building.
With the actual start of work in
connection with the erection of the
big bridge that is to span the river
a: Ner.ana, comes the thought of
a fitting celebration to mark the
closing of the final gap on the Gov
ernment'- Alaska Railroad. It is per
haps a little early to begin prepara
tion- but not too early to commence
planning, for it is certain there will
be a celebration and :i should be
made the biggest event .n the career
of the Territory Travel over the
rul’r ad during the coming summer
will serve as a preliminary to the
main attraction." and by the time the
bridge :c completed the railroad will
be operating sufficiently well to take
care of the many who will then be
ready and wait’ng for the Alaska
celebration. j
China can usually be Jepeded upon
*o d < -omethiiifr to cet her name
in the papers. Last year it was a
famine, which threatened the lives
of m.iliors and now is is internal
strife which threatens the life of the
republic. And next year, very likely,
it .will be another one of those in
undations for which the Celestial
Empire is noted.
W hiie The New? is not ir accord
with all of the provisions of the so
called "New Bill", concerning which
a great deal was said during the
recent primary campaign in Alaska,
the defeat of Senator New in the
Indiana primaries this week is a
matter of genuine regret, for Sen
ator New. during the time that he
ha? beer, in office, has taken a real
interest in Alaska affair? and shown
a disposition to assist the Territory
in every way. Hi? help on more than
one occasion has boosted the Terri
tory over a rough at >n the Con
gressional highway.
