Frank Robertson, who returned to
town, this week from a trip to An
chorage and Seward, says that busi
ness appeared to be somewhat up
set there as a result of the reform
wave which recently hit the coast
towns. It was so quiet, he says
there was not even a holdup dur
ing: his entire stay. There was much
snow on the road between Anchor
age and Seward, and in the Broad
Pass section, but very little at
Seward. The train was 16 hours
making the run from Anchorage to
Seward.

GERIG SAYS NEW TARIFF
WILL CUT COST OF LIVING
A general freight tariff based on
a terminal rate of $45 from Seattle
to Fairbanks is the ambition of the
recently created tariff commission of
the Alaskan Engineering Commis
sion, according to William Gerig,
■who was in Seattle recently confer
ring with traffic officials of the Ad
miral line and Alaska Steamship
Company, regarding a through rate.
’ Mr. Gerig is quoted by the Seat
tle Alaska Dispatch as saying, with
regard to the work of his commis
sion :
“The $45 rate will cut the cost
of living in the Interior about f.O
per cent. The rate from Seattle to
the Interior via St Michael has
been $90 and the rate. Seafle via
the White Pass & Yukon Route.
$76. It is not the rate alone which
will cut the living cost but the abil
ity to secure commodities from the
coast points.
"For instance, when the excursion
train was in Fairbanks, there was
a shortage of oats, which were sell
ing for $150 per ton. Anchorage
and Seward supplied oats wirch,
plus the freight rate, were laid
down in Fairbanks for $75 a ton.
"Sugar was selling at Fairbanks
for 16 cents a pound. Seward and
Anchorage supplied sugar for Fair
: banks at $ cents a pound, plus a
freight rate of one and one-half
cents a pound.
“Heretofore the merchant of the
Interior has been required to have
shipped to him supplier to last from
even to nine months. This ties up
a greet amount of money; besides
the merchant must provHe for cold
and warm storage. With the comple
tion of the railroad *he ir.teiior
merchant can nave commodities
shipped in any quantity and also,
where it is of a perishable nature,
a better quality. The railroad put
Outside turkeys, cranbenie.-' and
other delicacies from Seattle into
Nenana and Fairbanks for Thanks
giving dinners, the r.rsi time in
history.
“Seward will be the transfer point
unlc-f freight during the summer
months is routed by steamer via An
chorage. The railroad management
would like, however, to see aff of
the freight for the Interior be sent
via Seward as \ye would get the
benefit of the through haul, for if
it goes to Anchorage the railroad
loses about $2 a ton. The passenger
business will be via Seward, as the
average traveler is pretty well satis
fied to catch a train after being
aboard ship for seven day \ the time
it takes from Seatti • to Seward.
“It is the understanding that the
Government railroad will lease a
through telegraph wire to the U. S.
military cable system and this will
make many changes at Valdez and
Seward. The telegraph line from
Valdez to the Interior is a hard
one to maintain during the winter
months. The Government railroad
must maintain its wire at all times,
and there is no quest.on but ’hat
the cable system officials will shortly
get a leased wire from the railroad.
This will mean that Seward will
have a larger force and Signal
Corps men will also be stationed at
various points along the Govern
ment railroad.”
If you can’t cell it the old way—
try adrertiiing. It utually help*.
