PRECOCIOUS NEWSPAPER YOUNGSTER
IS BORN IN CORDOVA TODAY j
N't >\Y tin'it a iii’W industrial era is dawning for Alaska wo
Vel that tile time is op|u>rtline for the launching of The Cordova
g-ji Daily Times, which is edited, published ami controlled by men
who arc hoiia tide residents of the territory and have spent the
hr host years of their lives in the mystical land of the North. It
will lie our aim to issue a news and independent new spape, dedi
dedicated to the service of the public, and we are willing to risk
our chances of success upon the reception accorded our alt o'
noon visits to your Icnnc or place of business.

POLICY Of THIS UA1LY
IS TO BOOST THE BOOST
EVERY newspaper should have, like a political party, a
platform or set of principles to which it should adhere. Our
general policy is to lie a constructive one and the dominant
platform is Boost! Boost!! Boost!!! Boost the town, the re
sources, tin whole of Alaska. It is better in every way to
BOOST THAN To KNOCK. The world has only contempt
for the KNOCKER, but it lauds the BOOSTER, lie a booster
for Cordova and tbe Copper River valley, and earn the good
will and gratitude of your fellow citizens.
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCHES
ONE OF OUR GREAT COUPS
THE DAILY 'LIMES today print- t,lr Associated Press
telegraphic news service for the first time in Cordova, which
is a guarantee that its renders \\ ill receive t he hest, quickest and
most accurate press dispatches obtainable. It is generally
recognized as the most reliable news gatherer in the United
States, and we feel a pardonable pride in being one of the three
papers in Alaska to receive this superior service. Tbe present
war, the greatest in history, is the biggest news of tbe day and
tbe excellent maimer in which it is covered by the Associated
Pri will be daily'reflected in the columns of The Times. Af
terii' capers are partciularly favored because of the dilTer
. nei me (and especially Pacific coast and Alaska papers^
In .in in* time events happen in the theatre of war and tlie
time the newspapers are issued. When this paper goes to
press each afternoon it will print practically all the war news
happening up to the midnight following, because night lias in
tervened. But the greatest of events might as well not happen,
. if happening, they were not gathered and flashed to the farther
most cornels of the earth. This the Associated Press does in
r a marvelous manner.
ILLUSTRATED WAR SCENES
ANOTHER INTERESTING FEATURE
'I'11E mil"- of the peophyire so much absorbed by tin* events
Uninspiring in Europe, that we feel it incumbent upon 11s to
{not only furnish them with complete and 'unbiased reports 011
fLJMio progress of this great war, but also to print illustrations of
gthe movements of the troops, scenes at the front, and repro
since what photographs and sketches of battles are obtainable.
- In this manner the reader will be given a more vivid idea of
what is actually happening on the battle field.

'I" ire to : oinl daily ami weekly editions wideiv read and
• b that end in view have decided to offer 11 clubbing rate of

it more uppp'priat gift can von make to a relative or
