HYDER, ALASKA. February 27, 193
An excellent beginnig has been
made by the Hyder Commercial
Association. It is possible for this
body to become of incalauable val
ne to the commnnity, but in order
to make it a power for the greatest
good each individual member must
take a personal interest in the pro
ceedings, and not let the enthusi
asm which accompanies the first
few meetings, ever wane.
With its fifty-six pages replete
with high-grade mining infqjrma- j
lion and timely illustrations, the!
fourth anniversary number of North- j
vest Mining Truth. Spokane, is the ]
most interesting publication that
has ever come into the Miner office.
Northwest Mining Truth is always
good, but in this anniversary num-1
her its management appear to have j
attained as near peefection as is
possible in this land of the free an i
home of the prohibitionist.
