CORDOVA’S PAPER.
The Cordova. Alaskan charges
the town of Valdez with acting
wilii poor grace in ils opposition
to the newly appointed tint un
confirmed marshal of liiis divis
ion, charging that the opposition j
here is because the man is lrom
Chililia, and because we fear that
Ostrander may also he appoint- j
ed and lhat, working together,,
Ostrander and Kxum will move j
the court house headquarters to ;
Cordova.
Wrong again.
The opposition here against;
Tlxum is not by Valdez people hut
by former Cordova people now ;
in this town.
No man need tie ashamed of his j
opposition to Kxum. The records j
show that lie owned and rented !
bouses on the line at Chitina,,
charging, as is customary by all j
owners of such places, exorbitant ;
rentals, taking profits earned by I
women in houses of ill fame, lie;
is charged with other crimes]
againsi decency and if they are
true he is not a lit man for mar
shal of Ibis division. Therefore,
believing these things to be true, j
llii1 people of Ibis section have a
light to oppose and experl from j
the decent people of the railroad
town that they also will oppose
Jiis confirmation. Were the Cor
dova Alaskan to deny these
charges and declare lhat they
were not true, then I hat would;
be a different matter, lull Ihej
Alaskan's efforl to accuse \aldez,
of opposing Kxum because he ]
bails from Chilina is far-felched. |
The Cordova Alaskan admits the
■charges against Kxum lull asks
that the ■’maidle of charily he
thrown o\ er hi' s boil Idrrs.
Tln‘ ! loin dioi'-f )sl randcr fac
tion have led the light icrc
jigiiinsl Kxum. and John Frame,
who lived at Cordova for many
■years, is aiding in the efforts Lo
defeat the Chilina man: It may
lie true that these men have oth
er motives. Ie.11 it Kxum is deieat
ed it will he because I lie charges
sire true.
Valdez, people know nothing of
the pasl life of Kxum nor of his
fitness and have, as a rule, re
mained quiet and have expected
those who know I" do the talking.
The cliarue of the Alaskan against
Valdez is based on en\ y.

TRAPS FOR GIRLS. '
The recent, raiding of several
resorts in Tacoma shows iliat ev
ery city seems to have its. own
way of ruining girls. In Chicago,
it is charged, dance hall beer is
drugged wholesale and alcohol is
put into “soft.” drinks, (terlrude
II. Iti illon, a settleme'iil, worker,
testified before I Ik* Illinois vice
commission (hat liipior is sold to
girls under 111 in '-’00 Chicago
dance halls.
"Our investigators learned that
respectable dance halls were a
good thing, for they provide di
version for many young people
without, endangering their mor
als," said Mrs. Mritlon. "but about
half the dance halls are immor
al. The selling of liquor to girls
is often the lirsl. step to their
ruin.”
The thought occurs that if
there are -’00 dance halls selling
liquor to girls and are therefore
to he. classed as immoral, and that
if about half the Chicago dance
halls belong to that class, the city
must'be supporting 400 such in
stitutions, good and bad. This
seems almost unbelievable, but
probably is true, or jl, would not
have been offered as testimony.
Then, if dance halls are to be
found so numerously, how is a
girl |o discriminate, especially it
she is a stranger? Cirls who
turn to dance halls for their
amusement do not want to go
wrong. Iml once inside they are
enmeshed before they know it.
doing inside is the fatal step and
it's mighty easy to fall into the
hands of I he wolves dial lurk
out side.--Taco ma Tribune.
According to Uradsfreet’s, it
cost the average American family
$ 10(i more to live in l!)l? Ilian it
did in I80(). Well, it’s worth it.
See how much more beautiful the
world is, how much brighter the
buildings are, how much richer
lhe: politicians have become, and.
then again, we're older and hadn’t
ought to eat as much anyway. The
compensations are surely worth
the extra'expense.
