An effort will probably be made to
get a trail in here by the way of Gul
kana. as the government road at this
point is but a few miles away, and a
trail from that point would do away
with all glacier travel.
Much dissatisfaction is expressed
I j with the present mail service. The
, I present route from McCarthy over the
. ! glacier is dangerous at best, and the
I service is far from regular. Mail by
j way of Gulkana would avoid much of
(j the cause for delay and it is suggest
, ed that the Alaska road commission
send a reliable man over this route to
investigate the feasibility of a winter
, trail between that point and the camp.

Today's news in the Times today.
I
on Saturday evening inst a good
sized crowd attended the meeting at
Kagle hall, which was addressed by
Mrs. Kate Sadler, of Seattle, a pleas
ing and forcible orator, who opened
the Socialist campaign in Cordova.
She spoke for two hours, during which
time she held the attention of her
audience. Mrs. Sadler set forth the
principles of Socialism in a most enr
: nest and convincing way, and analyzed
| at some length the cause of the pres
! ent war and pointed out the danger
I that threatened the United States un
der existing conditions between capi
tal and labor.
Mrs. Sadler's subject was “Reform
j or Revolution," and it was evident
that she was posted on labor condi
tions generally.
“We stand today in these United
States just where Europe did two
years ago." said Mrs. Sadler in her
opening remarks. "It remains for us
to determine whether we shall have
the same fate as Europe or not, for
the causes that led to the war across
the seas are confronting us today.
"Among the nations of the world
there la not one with more reform
measures upon the law books of her
country than Germany and yet it did
not save the German workers from
the experiences of the battlefield."
In discussing the political situation,
the speaker said:
"The Democratic party is asking to
be returned to office because, as Presi
dent Wilson says, we have increased
our wealth forty-one billion dollars
during the past two years of his ad
ministration."
"What has been the cause of this
great increase? The tragedy of Eu
rope. Hut how much of the increase
hi(s the workers received? W’ages
enough for the food and clothing and
shelter necessary to preserve life.”
Mrs. Sadler reviewed the acts of the
last congress, pointing out the im
mense appropriations for preparedness
which President Wilson approved, and
also stated that candidate Hughes
favors this action, and that no re
lief could be expected until the So
cialist party was in power, as it was
against war unless the people them
selves decided by a referendum that
l hey were,in favor of it, as the capi
talists were the only ones to reap any
benefit at the sacrifice of the lives of
the workers.

WILL DEVELOP
i
Col. B. F. Millard makes the follow
ing announcement In the Valdez
Miner:
The Honey Boy Mining Company
was organized two years ago, but the L
property did not show up satisfactory ®
and no stock was issued. Mr. Chil
berg and myself paid $7,000 for de
velopment work. This company will
now be revived to take over the j
bonds on thirty claims known as the
McKinley I,akb property, twenty-two |
miles from Cordova. This property •
carries five veins from ten to seven
teen feet wide, and Mr. James Henley,
an expert and geologist, spent a month
on the property in 1915, and his report
shows an average assay of many
samples of $5.06 per ton of 115 feet of
vein. I have sampled twice and my
sampling verifies his work. I am
spending $2,000 of my own money on
development, and want to spend $10,
000 during the winter. I am offering
100,000 shares of capital stock at 10
cents per share. I am not asking any
one to put in a dollar. I have this to
say: In July the Treadwell mine
ran $2.00 ore and had a profit of $48,
000. If they can make money on $2.00
ore aDd the Gastineau on $1.30, is not
115 foot vein averaging $5.00 per ton
on salt water, with plenty of timber
on the ground a good thing?
As I state above, I am not asking
anyone here to put up a dollar, but
those who went in on the ground j
floor of the Cliff made 900 per cent,
and those who went in on the Gran
ite doubled their money or more, or
at least had the chance to do so.
Should anyone want this stock at 10
cents per share, they can leave the
money with Frank Millard and get a
receipt for same, and on my return
i from Seattle, where I am going soon,
1 will have the stock books and will
cause the stock to be issued to parties
holding receipts. It makes no differ
ence to me whether the stock is sold j
here or not. We will still be friends. ]
but 1 thought proper to let the good "
people in Valdez in, providing they de-1 r
sired to come. This offer only holds
good one week, or until I leave for
Beattie. In the spring this property
will be fully financed.

The Range With a Reputation
Great Majestic
There is as much difference In Ranges as there is in horses. All
Ranges have flues, ovens, ash pan s, etc. You can't judge a Range
from a printed description any more than you can judge a horse that
way. You have to see them to understand why one is cheap at the
price, and another Is dear at any p rice. See the MAJESTIC display
at our store.
