VOICE OF ALASKA PRESS
-•
Papers throughout the whole terri
tory have interviewed J. R. Heckman,
commercial clubs have entertained
him, political organizations have con
sulted him. He has been a power for
good and the whole territory benefits
as the result of his trip.
Despite his repeated statements
that he was making the trip with no
political aspirations in mind; notwith
standing the fact that he has said pri
vately and publicly that he is not a
candidate for any office, the people of
Alaska have insisted on putting his
name forward for several offices of
importance. It is but a sign of the
regard in which he is held, and if it
were possible to induce him to accept
any office there seems little doubt that
he would be elected, regardless of
who his opponent might be. After
thirty-three years spent in Alaska,
mingling with sourdoughs, studying
tlie country, its needs and possibili
ties, which, added to this enlightening
. trip, bring him forward at this time
particularly as one of the big men of
the territory.—Ketchikan Chronicle.
Valdez lias some big things prom
ised for the coming year. The build
ing of the huge concentrator at the
Granby will provide employment for
one hundred men, the opening of the
Cliff mine will also add several thou
sand dollars per month to the pay roll.
The 2,000-foot tunnel being driven on
the property of the Valdez Gold will
open up a vast ore body of great rich
ness, and will place a large force at
work in the early spring. The Free
Gold is producing steadily, with great
values as the work proceeds. The air
plane company announces that despite
the delays their big machines will be
here ready for work in the spring.
The trail will again be opened for the
passage of autos, and many properties
on Mineral creek are preparing to
start work with the cheapening of
mining supplies. Captain Lathrop an
nounced recently that he would erect
his big theater here when prices cheap
ened. The outlook is good, if ap
proached from the right side. In
quiries are pouring in from prospec
tive settlers and the year 1920 will be
the turning point, not only for Valdez,
hut for all Alaska.—Valdez Miner.
Your true Alaskan is an optimist—a
chronic one. He has that spark of
hope always smouldering in his breast.
At this time of the year he is always
certain that in the spring something
big is going to happen in this imme
diate vicinity.
Douglas Island tofks—wnat ate ten
of them—are true Alaskans in one re
spect, and that is each fall they are
eternally certain that the spring will
bring not only the May flowers, but
renewed prosperity to Douglas Island.
This fall fe have our usual little
chest full of hopes that we can exam
ine at our leisure moments this winter.
We can take them out of their recep
tacle and fondle them and feel them
like a young girl does the embroidered
and flimsy lingerie in her hope chest.
Our chest is unusually full this fall
r—in fact, so full we can hardly get
the lid on. To disclose all the beau
tiful things crammed in right now
would be like having a surprise party
on a person who had been told about
it beforehand. *
So we will just slam down the lid
and turn the key. If you happened to
have had a glimpse of the contents, all
right, you can tell your neighbor about
it, as it may help him through the
days that are to come before all our
hopes are realized,.—Douglas Island
News.
From the recent verdicts brought in
by juries in the district court, it would
seem that those gallows in the attic
of the court house will accumulate a
m *
lot of dust before they are used.—
