Eoover--LyonS.

Judge John Lyons, U. s. Com- missionerat this place was married to Miss Harriet l.. Hoover on Jan. 18th, at Fossil, Oregon. This news came as surprise to the many friends of the Judge at this place, no one thinking that he had such serious, or rather happy intentions when he left here.
 Judge Lyons came to Valdez d year ago from Juneau, being ap- pointed U. $. Commissioner for this place by Judge Brown of the Dis trict Court. He has many friends here and also throughout southeastern Alaska, where he has resided for several years and is well known.
 The bride is an old friend and the couple have been engaged for some time. The PRosPEcroR ex- tends congratulations and the best wishes to the haTy couple. They expect to arrive here on the next steamer.

Construction Liable To Begin
 This Season.

Tuesday evening Surveyor Bald- win established his first camp near Station No. 1, on the government trafi. From this point he will run the preliminary survey through Keystone canyon for the Valdez and Yukon river railway. MT. Baldwin has been employed by the company recently organized by Col. Bannistcr and Alfred B. Hes, under the name of Alaska, Copper river & Yukon railway company, to prosecute this work. The right of-way through Keystone canyon Is the strategic point in the con- struction of the trans-Alaskan rail- road, and it is to secure the control of this pass before others claim it that the survey is being made over the SHOW. AS immediate construc- ton mus; he commenced in order to hold the right-of-way, the whis- tie of the locomotive may be heard in Valdez before Oct. 1st, 1902.

TIT GIT ELECTION.
LARGE INCREASE IN VOTES
1iRaS aad pTespedoIS Ti(ksi UinS
Two Tickets in the Fie1d--No Ex.
 citcment Shown.

The election for town officials, held here on last Tuesday, Feb. II, speaks well for the growth of our locality. At similar election, held les than one year ago, the total vote boiled was fifty-nine whereas, the present tally-sheet shows vote of two hundred and seventeen. It would have been larger were it not that many are now on the trail, bound for the interior, and many more have not yet arrived from the states--having gone out for the winter to visit their friends and relatives.
 There were two tickets in the field one known as the Miners and Prospectors' ticket, and tie other as the Citizens ticket. Most of the names appeared on both.
 The polls opened at nine o'clock and closed at five. There was con siderable electioneering during the day and it would have taken very shrewd politician to predict the result.
 The positions are honorary and not remunerative, and as to the personnel of the boards to be se- lected it would be rather difficult matter to tell who, in all our com munity, would be best suited to fill the positions, as there are many competant men.
 There were a few scattering votes and two were thrown out on ac- count of having duplicates folded in with them.
 When the polls were closed and the count made up, it was found that the Miners and Prospectors ticket was elected throughout, with a vote as follows:

A Short History of the Wonder fu1 Development of Our City, Pioneer Business Men and What They are Doing.

Tn the year 1857 the news was published throughout the states that gold had been found on the Copper river in large quantities. Several prospecting parties had been in this section of the country, and it was known that the natives who came out to the coast to trade, brought gold with them. They also had copper tools of different kinds and told of great quan- titles of that metal to be found in the interior.
 This news was soon published all over the world and Copper river was talked of everywhere. Thou sands were going to the Yukon, but the Copper river was easier of ac- cess and many decided to go there.
 Early the following spring the rush for this part of Alaska began, and as the best and only feasible route was from the head of Valdez bay, the larger part of the great crowd landed where the town of Valdez now stands.
 Tents were soon stretched, frame buildings erected and log cabins built. The town of Valdez was es- tablished and sprung up like a mushroom, almost in night. It was soon a little city of tents and was a lively camp. Thousands of tons of provisions and outfits of all kinds were piled on the beach. The stampede for the Copper river was on in earnest. Over five thou- sand people landed here in that memorable spring of '9S. About 4OOO people crossed the glacier, in- tending to prospect the country. Several hundred remained here and some went to other parts of Alaska, or returned to their homes. Dur ing the summer and fall of '9S sev- eral cheap buildings were erected and few stores opened.
 E A townsjte a mile square was laid out and a board of town trus- tees was elected at a mass meeting, and this form of government con- tinued until last July, when the town was incorporated.
 Valdes grew and prospered dur. ing the early summer of 1898, but as fall and winter approached, hun dreds of those who started for the interior returned with evil reports of the country. The fact was that not one in twenty who went into the country was fitted in any way for the lie of prospector. They knew nothing of mining or of roughing it in a new and unex- plored country. Consequently they went a few miles into the interior, sat down and ate up part of their provisions, and then returned to the states, cursing the country that they had not prospected and knew nothing about.
 The news was spread all over the land that there was nothing in the Copper river country; that it was a vast wilderness, the natives were hostile, the country was sickly, and a thousand and one other stories that had no truth in them, and emenated from the imagination of a crowd of weak kneed people that should never have left their count ing houses or work benches.

A Miners Guide.

The Copper River Mining, Trad ing and Developing Co. have pub lished a handsomely illustrated book, entitled Miners, Settlers and Tourists Guide" Ire title suggests the nature of the book, and it will, We believe, prove of great value to the people of Valdez, and more so to those who intend com- ing to urshores and travel through this country. TT e book, as guide starts from Valdez, as that is the gateway into the interior, and de- scribes the Copper river country very minutely and correctly. It should be circulated extensively. The Bertha will bring up a large supply of these books to F. NJ. Brown, who is the Alaska repre- sentative of the company and everyone should have d copy in their possession.

Business went on as usual throughout the day; there was no hard feeling shown anywhere, and |'now that the result is known, we are just as good friends as ever and hope we may all be well and pros porous by next election,
 The present incumbents will hold office until next July, as they were elected last July to serve one year, so those now elected will hold office from July until the second Monday in March, 1903, and there after each board will hold office for one year, beginning on the second Monday of each March.
