Some of the trials of the pioneer Aaskans who waited for many years for authority to develop the Territory exemplified by the Cordova Times in the of John E. Barrett who located the site of the thriving town of Mccarthy, adjacent to the Bonanza copper mine
 Barrett located his homestead ten years ago. before the railroad completed to the mines. The railroad needed part of his land for terminals, but under the law Barrett stood chance of losing his claim if he offered to sell before receiving his patent; thus, he rented the terminal property to the company Later, during the gold rush to Shushanna he laid out town and rented stores and camping sites on twenty-five year leases Some of the property has been occupied in this way for ten years, and Barrett, with his patent in hand, is offering deeds to lessees who will pay up the balance of the twenty fveyear leases, and the situation to titles is clear. Just now McCar- thy is showing signs of boom
