EXCURSION MOOSE
PUSS FROM SEWARD
SUNDAY. LABOR DAY
ROUND TRIP FARES FOR CITI
ZENS AND AUTOS SUNDAY
AND MONDAY
The announcement made at local
railroad headquarters yesterday that
on September 5, Sunday, the citizens
of Seward, and especially those who
have automobiles, will have the oppor
tunity to ship their cars to Moose
Pass for a nominal -sum, promises to
be the signal for a general exotus for,
according to present indications, al
most everyone owning cars are plan
ning to take advantage of the spe
cial rates.
Several days ago Mayor L. V. Ray
took the matter, of this probable ex
cursion, up with Gemeral Manager
Noel W. Smith, Alaska railroad, Har
ry F. Morton, attorney, conveyed this
information at yesterday's Chamber of
Commerce meeting. Agent E. L.
Sweek verified the statement last
evening and made the following facts
public.
The train, which will be the regu
lar Sunday train, will depart from
Seward at S a. m. Sunday, September
5. The following day, Monday, Labor
Day, a train will leave Moose Pass at
4 p. m., bringing everybody and their
cars back to Seward. A round trip
fare of $2.40 each will be made for
individuals and a round trip fare of
$10 will be charged for each automo
bile. The only provision attached to
the autos is that they must be loaded
by the owners or other individuals.
This, it is explained is a simple task,
especially from off the loading plat
form on the wharf. Unloading and
loading at Moose Pass will also be
found to be an easy matter.
For the past year The Gateway has
been informing it’s many readers of
the beautiful Moose Pass country and
of the wonderful system of roads the
Bureau of Public Roads department
has been constructing. It is reported
that by the time September 5 rolls
| around the road will be entirely pass
able from Moose Pass to Hope, a dis
tance of 50 miles. Autos now have
been running over its entire length
but the surfacing will be in a. much
more desirable condition in another
ten days.
Little need to take up space dwell
ing on the attractions of that remark
able district, so rich in natural re
sources, but there is need of calling
to the public’s attention that here is
the opportunity that all should take
advantage of. Car reservations should
be made at once with Mr. Sweek, at
the local railroad depot. The Gateway
car is the first reservation to have
been made it is learned. Out Sunday
