HYDER ALASKA MINER
W. R. Hull - - - - Editor
A newspaper whose purpose is to tell
the world about the newest and bus
iest town in the northland, and the
native resources which are responsible
for its existence.
PUBLISHED WEEKLY
Btitered as second class matter Nov
ember 4, 1919, at the post office at
Hyder, Alaska, uuder the Act of
March 3, 1879.
Sant anywhere for $5 a year.
Advertising rates on application.
FIRE PROTECTION
We started to write an editorial
about the need foi fire protection,
thinking that perhaps, in view of
the recent conflagration, whioh cost
one life and a property loss approx
imating $12,000, the community1
might be stirred into action. But
what’s the use? Everyone in town
has known ever since the town I
i started that protection was needed, I
and just how to go about securing)
it. The matter was thoroughly j
threshed out by the Commercial!
Association a year and a half ago!
and then the association was al-!
lowed to die. The half-dozen live
wires could not carry the burden j
for the whole town, and the major
ity of the residents were willing to
play the part of parasites, partici
pating in the benefits to be secur
ed, without contributing toward
their achievement
A Butte policeman, who killed a
“prominent merchant" as the latter
was driving his car through the
I streets at a rate of 40 tniles an I
| hour, now pleads that the shooting!
Was accidental. Why apologise
for killing a speed fiend? He would
n’t apologise if he killed a pedes
trian.
W'fe say sure, let Dempsfey and
Johnson fight, Dempsey Was a
slacker, and Johnson a white slav
er, so why not let them get togeth
er in the Hope that each may knock
the other’s block olT. The country
Would be winner if it lost them.

he is glad there is to be a church
in Hyder is because hfe can then
get rid of a lead nickel he has been
packing for a year.

• The blue law, blue noste, fanatical
joy killers Who are rtespqnsible for
prohibition, are Said now to be
about to start war on the plumbers
for hitting the pipte.
A proclamation has befeii iSsbed
calling Upon the Itish to qUit fight
ing. Might as well try to Stop the
tide from cooling in.

FASHION HINT
Party dresses that button down
the back are de trop. The present
evening gown has no back.
HOUSEHOLD HINT
If you do not wash your win
dows through the winter the hot
sun will not annoy you so muoh
through the summer.
Art is long. Therefore no skirt
now-a-days can be described as a
work of art.
Sanity has returned to the Yu
kon Territory. In the second vote
on prohibition the wets won.
In some states it is a misdemea
nor to give false information to a
newspaper. Pity such a law is
not universal.
All down the ages men have been
making fun of women’s clothes.
Wouldn’t it be fierce if the women
should finally get sore and refuse!
to wear clothes? I
