TRADE ON COOK INLET LARGE
"Seward is holding her own, in
the (matter of trading, with any
other locality in this section," said
Alex Fraser today who has return
ed from a business trip in | the
Cook Inlet country.
"Anchorage is securing a large
bulk a* the Seldovia.jPort Chatham
and Kachemak Bay trade because
the scores of little gas boats con
sider the (trip on th© Inlet safer
than coming to Seward, "svhen sev
eral hours is 6pent [on the onen
sea," continued Mr. Fraser." I
found that the prices asked by the
Anchorage merchants are about the
same {is those asked in Seward but
the mosquito fleet [is doing a large
business with the merchants of the,
Cook Inlet metropolis. |
"3eidovla is lively but If many
more merchants go there to enter
business the field wlli be over done.
I have leased the Joe Hanson Pool
room and will transfer my Knik and
Seward stock there, but expect to
return to Seward when the tide
