NORTHERN NOTES
With favorable low titles the past
few nights considerable activity has
been evidenced among the clam dig
gers of Cordova. A good many are out
on the flats within sight of town.
Herman Curtis was arrested at Cor
dova by the United States marshal
charged with violation of a federal
statute. His case will come up for
hearing shortly.
Judge Edward F. Medley received
a wire from New York, stating his
son, Edward, jr., left there the other
day for Seattle, en route to Cordova,
where he will spend the summer with
his father.
Friends of Ruth McCain, who was
graduated from the Cordova High
School last June, have just learned
of her marriage in Vancouver, Wash
ington recently to Lawrence Fuqua
of Portland. The bride had been
attending Willamette University, but
has left school and is now living in
Portland. She is a daughter of H.
G. McCain, who until recently was
assistant United States attorney here,
and who is now practicing law in Ket
chikan.
Dan Campbell of McCarthy, while
crossing the glacier about two weeks
ago was caught in a snow storm and
[ snowed in for seven days and then
being forced to mush 40 miles to re
join his companions.
H. D. Foster left McCarthy recently
with a large outfit for the Westover
property on Dan Creek to put in an
other season developing and doing as
sessment work. He was accompanied
by Axel Walstrom and Charles Ander
son.
J. .1. Price, manager of the Dan
Creek Hydraulic Mining Co., near Me
| Carthy. has returned after an extend
ed trip outside making arrangements
for the coming season’s operations
and buying an outfit. During his stay
in the States he made trips to San
Francisco and New York.
Joe White and Otto Elfstrom, who
were in Cordova recently from the
clam cannery at Mummy Island, said
that the loss of the two missing clam
diggers from their camp has been
practically assured. The lantern found
on the beach at Strawberry Point was
positively identified as one belonging
to the pair.
Ore said to be the richest find so
far on the property has been struck
on the 300 foot level of the Hirst
Chichagof mine, according to advices
received in Juneau recently. It runs
about four feet wide. The third ore
chute was struck a few months ago.
A number of underground men at
the Alaska-Juneau mine quit work
onemorning last week, it is said, due
to dissatisfaction with the mine 4-man.
After Neal Jillson had been missing
10 days on Lemesurier Island where
he was employed on the Ibach fox
ranch, a search was instituted which
led to the discovery of his body by
Deputy U. S. Marshal H. A. Pryde of
Hoonah. Reporting to the Governor’s
office, Mr. Pryde said Jillson had ap
parently dropped dead while feeding
foxes.

Looking Ahead!
Alaskan progress of the past forecasts the future greatness of
the Northland, and justifies all Alaskans in holding to their firm faith
in the Territory’s possibilities and worth. By aiming high and
working together—actively and steadily—those having to do with
Alaskan progress can accomplish much. Looking ahead to still
greater things, and planning and working accordingly, is the one
way that a high purpose can be realized.
The Alaska Railroad—a pioneer system—is gradually and pains
takingly striding towards a great goal—the greater development of
Alaska; and, that the future is bright and promising is attested by
the steady and consistent upward trend of past and present activi
ties. The Alaska Railroad is “Looking Ahead."
