There is no place like Interior:
Alaska and no other people like
Interior Alaskans, according to j
'
:Commissioner R. S. McDonald, who;
returned to N'enana this week from j
a hurried trip to Seward, by way of !
the Richardson highway and Cor- j
dova. There is as much difference
between Interior Alaskans and coast
Alaskans as there is between night
and day, he declared upon his re
. turn. In so far as the people were
concerned, his trip to the coast was j
much like a visit in the States. The |
Alaska spirit was not in evidence.
Mr. McDonald made a fast trip. ]
He left Nenana on the night of j
July 10, accompanied by August j
Peterson, and was in Chitina 52
hours later, waiting for a train to j
take them to Cordova, to connect,
iwith the steamship Northwestern for!
|Seward. Returning. Mr. McDonald]
reached Fairbanks on the night of!
iJuly 24, and was back in Nenana |
on Monday morning, July 26. He 1
was absent sixteen days and trav-j
jeled 1,400 miles, by railroad, auto
.stage, and steamship.
Mr. McDonald was delegated by ;
.the Nenana Commercial, club to go j
to the coast to confer with Secre-|
tary of the Interior John Barton j
Payne, and he planned to meet the :
secretary at Cordova. The Payne
party did not stop at Cordova, how-;
ever, and Mr. McDonald continued .
on to Seward, hoping to catch the
secretary at Anchorage; but upon;
arriving at the Gateway City, learn
ed that the visitors were about to:
leave Anchorage and that they j
would proceed direct to Seattle from !
that point. Mr. McDonald’s boat
had been delayed two days on the ;
way up the coast and the secretary’s j
party had shortened their stay in j
Alaska two days, a combination of
circumstances that made it impossi-1
ble to arrange a meeting. Mr. Me-;
Donald communicated with Secre
tary Payne by wire, but that was1
the nearest approach to a meeting, i
Mr. Peterson also went as far as
Seward, and then proceeded to Se
attle on a visit to his family, and
probably will remain in the States s
several weeks.

reached Cordova at eight o’clock in
the morning, just in time to catch a
train for Chitina. where he made
close connections with a stage for
the Interior. The only time lost
was at Chitina, on the outward trip,
waiting for a train to connect with
the delayed Northwestern.
Cordova, Mr. McDonald says, is j
a busy place, with its canneries and i
shipments of copper ore. There are ;
a number of fine buildings there j
and the town has an air of pcrman- j
ence. Seward also has a number of j
nice looking buildings and business
appeared to be good. But the cli
mate and the people did not appeal
to the Nenanaite.
Many birds and rabbits were no- i
ticed along the trail, and it is the ’
opinion of Mr. McDonald that both i
will be plentiful again within a
short time. There is every reason j
to believe, he says, that they are
coming back and coming back ’
strong, which will be good news to
Interior Alaskans.

CHALLENGING YACHTS
MUST SAIL ATL ANTIC
The Xews has been informed by
a number of readers, in answer to
the inquiry appearing in yesterday's
issue, that the challenging yacht
must cross the Atlantic without as
sistance, which is conceded to be a
considerable advantage in favor of
the defending yacht, because of the
necessarily stronger and heavier
construction of a craft built to cross
the ocean. The rules, however, do
not compel the challenging yacht to
use the ocean-going rigging in the
race. Any changes desired may be
made in the superstructure.
This rule was made while England
held the cup.
