COURT TERM AT CORDOVA
Once more Editor Wilcox takes his
virile pen in hand to rebuke the Cor
dova Times for its belief that it is en
titled to a termvof court once in a
decade. While wo have no wish to
uncork the vials of wrath that remain
bottled in bond at court headquarters,
we never will be able to get it thru
our ossified cranium where any argu
ment exists in the matter. Business
coming from Cordova should be tried
at Cordova; cases originating at this
place or to the westward, should be
tried here. Cases from Anchorage and
adjacent territory should be tried at
Anchorage. That’s fair isn’t it?
We are willing to admit that we
do not give a hoot whether a court
term is held in Valdez or h-. One
is as convenient as the other, and the
latter place would porbably furnish
more real amusement and excitement
tor the attending parties. What we
are interested in is helping support
a really economic administration of
the court, let justice stray where she
may. The Prince William Sound dis
trict will soon be thrown into the new
state formed by the First division and
then court can be held at Juneau, the
^lltimate center of territorial govern
ment, ' t ' isi*■■ **„,
If Cordova does not get a real hon
est-to-goodness court term, what use
will she have for her new $100,000
Federal building. If she can’t use the
building why not give it to Anchor-:
age, where it could be used to house I
white mule cases. Seward has a first :
class Federal building, and likewise1
no court term. Somehow every day in 1
every way we are getting better and '
better.
The last jury term was held at Cor
dova just twelve years a'go. By the ‘
time another decade rolls around1
there may be occasion for another. In !
the meantime let us thank the Lord
for a Republican administration su
pervised by a renegade Democracy.

about as much right to their pay
