''Then let us pray
that come it may
fits come it will for
all that, That man
to man the world
o'er shall brothers
be for all that.”
Burns.
This beautiful
verse was the dream
of only a few ibeal
ists for generations,
Now it appears
that whole nations'
are dreaming the
same. What nations
dream ought to
come true. The
League of Nations
s a step.
MERCURIAL
MOODS
A ’sourdough*
without a vein of
*1 ;. "
humor is dpomed
to disaster.
The h^bit of expect
ing* great thing of
oneself is a power
ful stimulus. It a
wakens undevelop
ed resources and
calls out the best
effort.
The Kaiser has tak
en the title of count.
The New Native
will grant him the
title ’’no-account
We can only be
valued as we make
ourselves v^ln^ble.
The little Home r’aper
Tha little home
papers comes to me,
As badly printed as
it can be; It's un
grammatical, cheap,
absurd- Yet how I
love each intimete
word! For here am I
in the turning town
Where the sad, mad
people rush up $nd
down, And it,s good
to get back to the old
lost place And gossip
and smile for a little
space.- C.H.Towne.
The Insult of Irony.
Irony is an insult conveyed in the
form of a compliment, placing its
victim naked on a bed of briers and
bristles, thinly covered with rose
leaves; adorning his brow with a
crown of gold, which burns into his
brain; teasing and fretting and rid
dling him through and through
with incessant discharges of hot
shot from a masked battery; laying
bare the most sensitive and shrink
ing nerves of his mind and then
blandly touching them with ice
or smilingly pricking them with
needles.—E. W. Whipple.
A WIRE FROM LOPP
SAID HE WOULDTRy TO
BE WITH US AT THE
FAIR.
WHAT’S IN A NAME?
Puzzed over what to
christen this paper. We
asked Mr. Lopp who
knitted his brow for a
moment and gave us
this vital name which j
we bear on the front
page. No name could b:
more fitting. Mr. Lopp
lias helped the evelu- ;
ton of the natives
from a simple,primitive
self-sufficient state to
a a ambitious and self- j
respecting place among;
civilised people.
Names qo mean some
thing. I Ley are the ve
hicles of our thots, the
tools that make human
speech immortal.
Recall the eventful
day in Miss Helen Kell
er’s life when Mrs. Many
pumped water into Hel
en’s hand smith a spell
ed the word “water.”
from that moment the
Mind, dumb and deaf
girl entered into a new I
world enriched with the
means to her soui’s ex
pression.
She learned the ev?rvthind about
us has a name. The g e ei the icm
ber of names you can k;a»n, names of
that thots, things, and actions, and
connect in a correct and logical man
ner, the richer wilf be your mental
storehouse.

The New
Native
Wonders
Why so. many nic
girls in Hydaburg
remain single and
unharnessed?
Why some Native
does’nt start to salt
nnd. pack herring.
Dr. Edwin F. Bowers says:
Children’s diseases are not necessa
ry. The secret of prevention is to
build up resistance by proper living.
LETTER
BOX
Craig, Alaska
Feb. 15, 1919.
To the Editor of New
Native, Hydaburg, AAA.
Lest there should be
somecritcism of the Alas
ka Natives who are striv
ing fv>r the better things;
1 desire to make it known,
through the columns of
your very commendable
iitiie pap.T, that ttyd re
sidents of Klatvocfc rend
ered every assistance pos
able to the white men
who were endeavoring to
capture the native. Peter
Jackson who murdered
Marshal Calhoun.
Peter Jackson was de
nied both moral and ma
terial support by friends,
and the people realize
that, in the new qrder of
things, there can be no
room for rape and mur
der.
After his self destruc
tion, the remain were de
cently and quietiy buried
by relatives and former
friends, and through all
this trying time the peo
ple of Riawock, with out
exception, acted as only
peace loving, law abiding
respectable citizen could
act.
M. L. Bonham,
Acting Deputy
Marshal.
’A MAN OF MIS WORD.”
One of the biggest sins a man
can commit is the betrayal of a
public trust. Man advance in pos
ion and power only in so far as they
are true to faith and confidence re
posed in them.
As with whites so with natives.
The New Native is encouraged by
the news of the Metlaicatlans living
up to honor and responsibility.
Announcement

be held at klawock from
March 11 to 14. The
New Native will print
