(From Skagway Alaskan)
That Cordova is a hustling little
town Is substantiated by the report
of W. 1). Stout, of Haines, correspon
dent for the Daily Alaskan, who If
visiting in that rity.
He reports that the population ol
Cordova is about 1,000, The city has
every appearance of being built upor
a solid foundation, as it has three
churches, Presbyterian Episcopal am:
Catholic. Eight stores comprise the
business section of the city. Most ol
the stores are specialty stores, deal
log in one or more commodities: few
handle general merchandise lines, as
is usually the custom in Alaska. He
sides these thriving luisiness estab
: llshments the town has seven saloons
five first class hotels, three barbei
shops, one public school, with (href
ably supervised departments, a p’-o
gj-essivo newspaper, two doctors, !hre<
barristers, electric light and v at *r svs
tern, two transfer companies and sev
eral clam and salmon canneries. Mr
'Stout writes that E. 11 Hanley, an old
timer of Haines, and one of the earlv
.owners of the Porcupine mines, is run
liing a cannery near Cordova. ■ -?
“Cordova is certainly a busy pine
at live present time. The town is ful
of people. 1 am told that there an
no vacant houses in (lie city. Pent
range from $1n a month up t >
Monthly exports from the KeniiTo*
copper mines, 1 am told, are uh -at on
and a half million dollars ji month
and that taken front (he differen
canneries make Cordova one id t'e
• important shipping points in \lasict.
writes Mr. Stout, in covering the gw:
oral business conditions in and ahoy
the thriving Alaskan city.

Jumping from business conditions ti
the political field, Judge Stout report:
that he has talked with men fron
Fairbanks and Nome, and that thos<

gentlemen report that Judge Wicker
sham will have a good majority in
both those places. Cordova i cron

no question about how south'- tern
