CORDOvA HAS TWO
 TICKETS IN FIELD
Hot Municipal Fight Being Waged and Considerable Money Will Change
 Hands On April Sixth.

Two tickets are in the field for the municipal election in Cordova next month and hot fight is promised. The Citizens ticket has the support of the Daily Alaskan, of which Will A. Steel is the editor, while the Peo- ple's ticket is being supported by the Cordova Times, Harry G. Steel editor.
 The Times is making a fight on the management of the city during the past year and the Alaskan Is de- lending the council on the grounds that the city was we'll and economi. cally managed, and that taxes have been lower during the past year than under former councils.
 The candidates on the Citizens ticket are: E V. Boyle, Ed. Currler. w. H. Chase, Chas. Goodall, Price Net tleton, E. E. Ray and Chas. Ross. On the Peoples ticket are: E. J. Davis, Bartley Howard, Geo. c. Hazelet. Thos. c. Price. Henry A. Slater. w. l.. Smith and V. A. Schmitz. Chas. Rosswog was named for the ticket but declined to run and Schmitz was sub- stituted.
 The men on both tickets are cap- able business men and no matter which is elected the interests of Cor. dova are sure to be properly looked after during their term of office. Con- siderable money is reported as be- ing waged on the result of the cleo. tion.

CAPITAL LOOKING
 TOWARD ALASKA
pr. 1runer Arrives Here Direct From
 New York and Will Stay Till Railroad Question Is Settled.

Dr. M. w. Bruner, physician, capi- talist and promoter, arrived on the Mariposa direct from New York City and will remain in Valdez until the selection of the railroad route is made public.
 Dr. Bruner Is well-known here, hay ing first landed on the beach in the spring of 1902, and practiced his pro- fession in Valdez for some time. When oil was struck at Katalla he went over there to try his luck, and soon became interested in the Boring River coal fields.
 He then went back to Pittsburg and interested capital for the construction of railroad from Katalla to the coal, and this enterprise would have been carried to a successful termination, but for the order withdrawing all coal in Alaska from entry.
 The doctor states that the eyes of capital are looking towards Alaska as a field for profitable investment, and that there will be no trouble to finan- ce mining property of either gold or copper, provided it has passed the prospecting stage and is a known quantity.

TIME ID MAKE
 SPRING CLEANUP
Reside ents of Front and Other Streets Set Good Example for Prop
 erty Owners.

The property owners along Front street from near the old cemetery to Rudolph avenue and up that street to Mckinley and along the south side of Mckinley nave set good example ito the other property owners Of the town by clearing their sidewalks ot snow. A gap here and there testifies to an absent or careless owner.
 Spring is here and the snow is go. ing fast but that is no reason why residents should wait for old Sol to do the work without a little assist, ance on their part. Valdez has al ways taken pride in her streets kept clean during the summer. which Is right and proper for one of the great est home towns in Alaska. During the summer there is no prettier or cleaner town on the coast of Alaska and this fact has received comment from strangers passing through. They have carried away an impression that Valdez is a place where they would like to reside.
 The efforts of the Civic League in having the ordinance enforced pre- venting ashes and other debris being dumped on the streets during the winter to be revealed when spring comes. has served to abate that nuis- ance and if tne sidewalks are clear ed of snow it will add to the conven- fence of pedestrians and show that Valdez takes pride in keeping the town clean.
