Steamer Santa Ana
Now Due In Seward
The steamer Santa Ana of the Kus
kokwim Trading Company, was sched
uled to arrive in Seward from Seat
tle yesterday but no word has been
received from the vessel up to the
hour of going to press. Nothing defi
nite can be learned as to the length
of her stay in port but it judged she
will remain here for several hours.
Saturday, Memorial Day, the Am
erican Legion will hold services at
the cemetery.
HUGE INCREASE
OF SIGHTSEERS
STARTS JUNE 1
The vanguard of the greatest army
of eastern tourists who have even in
vaded Alaska and the Pacific North
west, in any one year, will soon ar
rive in the North, according to in
formation received in Seward from
Seattle. It is predicted that by June
1 there will be a number in Sew
ard and that the number will con
tinue to increase each week, with a
big juimp after June 15, when the
national parks in the States open.
Special tourist agencies as well as
railroad officials thruoutt the east
report exceptionally interest in the
Pacific Northwest, Alaska and in the
tours thru the Orient. It is stated
the unusual interest on the part of
easterners is attributed to the ex
ceptionally clever and judiciously
widespread advertising campaigns,
carried on over a period of years by
the various communities. The cli
max of the travel is looked forward
to sometime in July, at which time
it should be at its peak.
The first real movement of tour
ists to Seward is scheduled to start
this coming Saturday when the S.S.
Yukon, of the Alaska Steamship Co.,
departs from Seattle. It was announc
ed last week that many tourists had
many reservations on this steamer,
months ago. As it is too early yet
for them to go ovor the Richardson
Highway, it is believed the majority
of them will make the round trip
over the Alaska Railroad.
Announcement of tourist parties
coming north on the Admiral Line
vessels was made a few months ago,
in fact, judging from present indica
tion, every steamer arriving in the
port of Seward from this period on,
is expected to arrive with full passen
ger -lists.
