I
Well, he’s home again and fairly
bubbling over with enthusiasm and
energy which will be expended to as
sist in the up-building and develop
ment of Anchorage and vicinity.
Chas. E. Herron, owner and pub
lisher of the Anchorage Daily Times,
returned to the city yesterday after
noon on the steamer Alaska from an
extended trip to Seattle and the east
in the interests of his extensive in
vestments in Anchorage and vicinity.
Mr. Herron’s trip wTas a success
and he has plans for further improve
ment in the Daily Times and will start
work, of considerable moment, on his
mining property in the near future.
Mr. Herron is always an Anchorage
booster and a firm believer in the fu
ture of this country. In addition to
visiting his family in Seattle, Mr.
Herron spent several months in
Washington, New York, Pittsburg
and other eastern cities and in every
place he sowed the seed of “Anchor
to Anchorage.”
During his visit in Washington, D.
C., Mr. Herron met many of his old
friends prominent in political circles
and was instrumental in starting sev
eral movements which will be of di
rect benefit to Anchorage. Mr. Her
ron is of the opinion that Delegate
Jas. Wickersham will win the contest
for his seat in the house and reports
that Mr. Wickersham, Senator Cham
berlain,Secretary Lane and others ma
terially assisted him in his efforts to
put through different issues which
, will ultimately benefit Alaska in gen
! eral and Anchorage in particular.
He says that the war situation is
| serious and the financiers are reserv
| ing their capital but that the country
| was never in a more prosperous con
I dition financially and that the people
in the states entertain no fear but
, that the allies will win out in the
world’s war. “When this time comes”
'said Mr. llerron. ‘and the war is over
America is destined to enter upon the
most prosperous area in her history
and Alaska will come in for a fair
i share of the good times. People are
i being attracted to Alaska and realize
that the resources are unlimited; the
government railroad has done a great
deal to put Alaska on the map and I
heard nothing but praise for the Al
askan Engineering Commission on
my trip. I look for considerable de
velopment in the Willow creek district
this season and am certain that the
Cache creek and Broad Pass mining
districts will prove successful.”
Mr. Herron said it was pleasing to
him to see the substantial improve
ment which had taken place in An
chorage during his absence and that
the flattering reports he had received
in regard to the properous condition
of the Matanuska farming commun
ity was indeed gratifying.
Mr. Herron expects a party of
prominent mining men in the near fu
ture who will visit the different dis
1 tricts with the view of investing but
; that Anchorage need not look for the
promised tourist travel on account of
the war situation.
Mr. Herron says he is glad to get
back to Anchorage and doesn’t anti
cipate taking another trip to the out
side until late in the fall.
SAYS MAN KILLED
IN MINE FLOOD
JUNEAU, May 10.—Mary Tassell
brought action in the district court
yesterday to recover the sum of $5,
400 from the Alaska Treadwell com
pany for the death of her husband,
Alexander Tassell, who it is alleged
was killed by rock falling upon him
while in the employ of the defendant
company last month. The plaintiff
has four minor children. Cheney and
Zeigler appear for the plaintiff.
Alex Tassell is the man who was
believed to be the only person killed
when the great flood took place at the
mines two weeks ago last Sunday.
His body was not recovered and it was
alleged at the time that he was seen
afterwards, but all this remains to be
proved or disproved by the testimony
at the trial.
