 Friends:
 There is a time coming now, on cleo tion day, when your vote will have some valuation in regard to electing the City Fathers for the next term. Remember last April how you were fooled. They told you on the day of election what they would do for you "Old Timers" in case they were elect ed; how all you "Old Timers" were sure to get work when anybody was needed. Now all we asked for was to be able to make living in Cordova. where we spend what little we get to keep up the town, and where most of us have been for five or six years. At the present time how many of the "Old Timers" can get one hours work for the city or on the dock? What did MT. Goodall do on the first work

GROUP KATALLA COAL CLAIMS
 REJECTED

The register and receiver of the Juneau land office has given out a de- cision rejecting the application for pat. ent on 41 coal claims in the Boring river coal fields, comprising the Nc. Kenzie Anthracite Coal company. Car. | bon Mountain Anthracite coal com pany and the Alaska Smokeless An thracite Coal company groups Five of these claims belong to what is known as the Green Group" of coal claims, located by M. A. Green, and the remainder comprise the Dough ton group of coal claims, located by c. H. Doughton in 1903 and 1904.
 The government charged that five claims of the Green Group" were To- cated with the understanding that one Harry White, of Seattle, Wash, and associates, would secure interest in the claims
 In the other claims the government charges that they were located pursu- ant to an agreement between c. H. Doughton and locators, whereby Doughton would secure an interest in the claims located It also charged that mine had not been opened on any of the claims prior to loca- tion.
 Testimony in the case was taken in Seattle, Portland. Los Angeles and San Francisco by the government. The defense submitted no testimony, and in it's decision the land office holds that each and all of the charges were substantlated.
 The testimony and exhibits in this noted case were voluminous, compris ing nearly 5000 typewriter pages. and it has required the larger part of two months hard work on the part of the land office force to go over it.
 A decision of the secretary of the interior was also received in regard to 40 scattering claims in the Boring river field. The claimants of these properties had not filed their appllca- tions for patent within three years from the date of location, as pre- scribed by law. The claimants asked for permission to apply for a patent after the three years had expired.
