News from Sunrise is to the effect j
that two men will winter in that
camp this season. At one time Sun
rise was a large and prosperous
camp, with a schooner line running
there from San Francisco and many
stores and business enterprises. To
day, it stands a monument to the
men who made the camp, and within
a few years will probably be gone
and forgotten.
The visit of the Anchorage basket
ball team is a nice thing for Seward
and will help promote a spirit of
amity between the two towns. The
Anchorage boys are a good bunch
of sports and those citizens who
missed yesterday’s game lost out.
It was certainly worth seeing. To
night’s game will be better yet, as
some changes will be made in the
line-up. v
The absence of prospectors in the
hills bodes ill for Alaska in future
years. The prospector is as neces
sary fo the development of the coun
try as the farmer and the business
man. Without the prospector no new
strikes can be made and no new
camps established. Alaska today is
feeling (he slump caused when prices
became so high that the oldtimer
could not afford an outfit. The day of
the grubstake is passed, but the
■man who desires to search for gold
can be encouraged in many other
ways.
Fairbanks apparently is done lor a
resumption of the prosperity that
struck the old camp in the early
nineties. It is true the old Florodora
and other attractions will be missing
but we imagine the town can still
step out a few in case there is an
incentive.
For one Alaskan coast town to
brag about its climate is like a one
eyed beggar boasting to a blind
man. They all ain’t when it comes
to climate.
That Seward has a fine bunch of
girl athletes is shown by the two
basketball teams playing in A. B.
hall yesterday. Seward needs a
large community hall for the ath
letics, as there is nothing better for
the youngsters, and it will help make
them satisfied with conditions in the
Norhtland.
John G. Brady, district forester for
the Chugach national forest, who is
in Cordova on official business, is ex
