AN INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPER
Smiles lighten the pathway
of life.
The man who follows another
i3 always behind.
The wise rush in after - the
fools have located the pitfalls.
In trying to make a iiyipg
people overlook the simple ex
pedient of going to work.
Nobody loves a tightwad ex
cept the people he owes money
to.
Nature supplies brains, but
gives no guarantee that they
wi.l be properly employed.
To be sure most of our i
trout los never happen, but the
unexpected ones always do.
Great men do not label them
selves as such. *
Contentment may be better !
than v'n.l h, but they ought to
go together.
Because “we all have our i
fa ills” gives you no license to
pet yours.
They say that good books are I
a great aid to a man. True
but the ones that help the most |
are bank books and pocket- j
book3.
--o
To attempt to disparage or
w’thhold support from a move-1
si ment, aimed at the communal' (
benefit is not the part of good j i
.citizenship, h
■ To the fair minded citizen it j ]
matters not who may be asso-1'
ciated in an enterprise having 1
as its object the advancement ]
<f the community interests; j
neither is he concerned over j
the prospect that some private ]
interest may be particularly
benefited by its consummation. *
He does not withhold his sup- j
port merely because he doesn’t j(
happen to like gomeone whp 1
has a hand in the matter; nor i
does he seek to decry it by.. J
questioning the motives of [
those.whp are helping to boost t
it along. The fact that the oh- e
ject of a movement is the bet- 8
terment of local conditions is]8
sufficient to enlist *t least the Jj
moral support of right think- r
ing people, without regard to ] \
who may be associated with it
or their reasons for giving it
their support.
Justice demands that those
who are willing to devote their
j time and efforts to helping the
| community shall be permitted
i to pursue their activities un
hampered by stumbling blocks
i thrown in their path by those
who permit themselves to be- j
come so blinded by unreason
ing prejudice or malice that
1 they forget to be good citizens. ;
The business interests of the j
district are not slow in recog- j
nizing the benefits that will
accrue to Alaska, and partic
ularly this section, through!
having a transcontinental rail- j
way terminal at Hyder. Fol-1
lowing the lead of the Juneau j
Chamber of Commerce, the i
Ketchikan Chamber of Com-!
merce recently passed resolu
tions endorsing the effort now
being made by the Hyder
Chamber of Commerce to as
sist the people of Northern B.
sist the people of Northern
B. C. in securing the extension !
of one of the Canadian trunk '
lines to Stewart, B. C. and
thence to Hyder. Banks and
business houses of the “First ,
City” have also signified their !
approval of the proposal in let- \
ters to the local commercial
body in which they express the
intention of working for its
mnsummation. Evidences are i
being rapidly multiplied that <
practically every important t
business and industry in the
rerritory will align itself with
:he movement when they are
possession of the facts pertain- i
ng to the proposal and under- I
stand its almost revolutionary „
searing on the future of Alas- ^
ca. 1
With this prospect in view
;here is no reason to feel dis
:ouragement over the outlook.
Sven though the expected de
u’sion of the Canadian railroad
leads ^regarding the Peace
liver extension is likely to
irove unfavorable to the Stew
irt route, the ever growing
rade of Alaska will continue
o be a tempting prize that will
sventually induce the con
duction of the short exten
ion of one" of the existing
ailroads which will place the
territory in direct rail com
nunication with the outside
irorld.

Just For Fun
The truth will out. That is
why a woman limps in her, new

Traveling in an airship may
be construed as high living,

Never bet with your wife ttn
le3s you are prepared to lose,

“They were a long way from
home and broke, so they drove
the machine fast so the gas

A man may be skeptical in
other matters, but still retain
confidence in his watch and
thermometer.
Twinkle, twinkle, little ftiree,
You are dimpled, we can see
Up above the world so high,
Can’t you make the skirt draw

No, Brother, we’re correct.
The last word of this poem is
“Nigh,” not “High.”

The difference between a rat* |

A writer says that angels are
women’s doubles. It isn’t nec
essary to mention the sex of

There is only one distinguish
ig mark between the stuff
tip Van Winkle drank and the
tuff they are drinking now—
lip woke up.
Why any girl should want to'
