“ALASKA—OUR FRONTIER
WONDERLAND"
"Alaska — Our Frontier Wonder
land,” is the title of a booklet which
has just been issued and is being dis
tributed under the auspices of the
Alaska bureau of the Seattle Cham
ber of Commerce, that live, progres
sive commercial body that is nov/
doing so much toward aiding and en
couraging the development of the po
tential latent resources of this vast
territory. “Develop Alaska,” is the
slogan employed on the front page,
upon which is also shown a compar
ative map of the United States and
Alaska. The legend underneath reads,
“Alaska is one-fifth the size of the
United States, nine times as large
as the state of Washington and twelve
times as large as the state of New
York.”
The booklet contains a fund of valu
able information about Alaska and its
resources, dealing particularly with
mining, fishing, fur and other in
dustries.
Under the head of “Alaska’s Needs,”
the booklet recites:
“Alaska’s growth and prosperity is
dependent, like all other countries, on
people—men and women who will be
attached to the country by home and
business ties. The country has proven
so rich in natural resources, both of
the# land and sea, as to assure a strong
and stable population, but such a peo
ple will only be attracted to Alaska
through a policy of encouragement.
“The adoption of a broad construc
tive policy that will make for the ra
tional development of Alaska, through
the peopling of the country by men
and women equipped to combat the
trials and hardships of the northern
frontier, and such a people attached to
Alaska by home and business ties is
the only foundation on which may be
built a prosperous and progressive
northland that will be a source of
strength to the nation.
“The early inauguration of such a
policy is the goal to which all true
friends of Alaska should persistently
labor.
In summing up, me DooKiet says:
‘‘It is only with the construction of
at least three trans-Alaskan railroads
reaching from open harbors on tide
water into the vast interior of Alaska,
with numerous branches as feeders,
that the wonderful resources of Alaska
can be economically developed and
made to serve the uses of man.
“With' the construction of the roads
and the building of the numerous
branches as feeders, and with a liberal
policy of inducement and a spirit of
encouragement toward the pioneer and
pioneer capital, Alaska will pour into
the lap of our people a stream of
wealth, not only of gold, copper and
the precious metals, but also of fish,
agricultural products, meats, furs and
coal that will have no competitor.
“Alaska has a future that cannot
be pictured by the most enthusiastic
optimists. A country that has made
such ashowing with a mere handful
* of men, under the most adverse and
restrictive conditions, offers untold
possibilities. The construction of three
trunk railway lines will result in the
opening up of an empire nine times
as great as the state of Washington,
and over nine times as rich in natural
resources. Its extent and weatih has
never been approached by any frontier
land. Hers should be a future of the
greatest prosperity, and it is the duty
of our people to see that she secures
the national development which she
has so long been denied.
“Our united efforts will be crowned
with a success' that will mean an
awakened empire of the north—
Alaska, Our Frontier Wonderland.”
AGAIN THE CORDOVA KI88
If Cordova drugstores can sell a
compound for ten cents an ounce Uiat
will cause the user to want to glue
his or her lips to something and hang
on like a chuckwalla until a ‘‘thou
sand deaths” comes from the gum
sucking its sale should be suppressed.
Think of the ecstasy of kisBing and
lingering and lingering and kissing
while the biscuits burn, the tides ebb
and flow and the thrills described
below creep up and down your solar
system like a stray comet in the
milky way. This lingering habit may
be the cause of the numerous epidem
ics in our sister town, and should he
investigated by the health officer.
But in that last mad moment
We kissed—our mouthy were met—
Dear God! I'd die a thousand deaths
To kisB and linger yet!
f
A man with a harelip and a gum
boil would have a lonesome time in
Cordova if the above quatrin is in
dicative of the native characteristics.
But this is a free country: If a man
Dr woman prefers a "lingering death”
In Cordova slush, while we may pity
them in that last mad moment, so
long as they linger why deprive a
town of its morning’s morning.—Val
dez Miner.
The Empress theatre will be dark
Tuesday night, on account of the
death of Edgar Rathwell, a member
of the firm having the contract for
the plastering of that building.

Tough Boots for
Tough J
Whether you’re felling timber, pros
pecting, or fishing, there’s a Goodrich
Boot that will carry you farther and
last you longer than any other you
can buy in Alaska.
It’s not made like other boots—*Vs
different, made IN ONE SINGLE
PIECE with a sole tough as a tire
tread that you’ll never need to half sole.
In this ad we show only one style of
Goodrich Footwear-r—the Brown
Driver. Possibly you could use the
knee-high White Short, the 9-inch
Lehigh or the White Hip to better
advantage. You’ll find Goodrich
“Hi-Press” prices no higher than for
ordinary boots—and Goodrich will
last you twice as long. .
