NEWSY PAPER SUSPENDS
The Miner learned with genuine
fagret that the Ketchikan Time*
had suspended publication. Ever
•ince the Miner was established we
hate felt that in the Time* thii pa*
per and thfe towh t>f Hyder had a
sincere Wend, and losing It from
our exchange table is almost like
losing a member of the family dr*
cle. Virile In its editorials and
hewsjr in its record of local happen
ing. the Times always avoided the
rut which reduces too many pa pets
to the plane of mediocrity. We
trust that H. V. Henrikson and
E. A. Heath will soon reentar the
newspaper game—we use the word
“game" here advisedly, for it is a
game, and one well worth playing.
PRffcPEtTfORS—ATTENTION!
For the benefit of bona fide pros*
pectors who havfe writted this pa*
per we will state that the season
this spring is extremely backward
and it is doubtful if much good oan
be done in the hills before the mid
dle of June. Of course it is well to
be on the ground in plenty of time
to be prepared to follow the snow
back. That is the best way to pros
pe-1 this country. The vegetation
here is very dense, and because of
the erne length of the slimmer
days it grows With a rapidity that
is amazing to folks from the south.
The snow lays this Vegetation flat
and before the new growth starts
the prospector has his best chance.
There is a vast amount of unexplor
ed territory within the presumed
area of the mineral belt on both the
Alaskan and Canadian sides,
If you want to do a nice, quiet,
easy business without any fuss and
Worryi exdept possibly worsy about
how yoil are going to meet your
bills, don’t advertise in your local
paper. But If you want business
to roll in on you until you are dog
tired at night from taking care of
it. by all meana advertise. Adver*
tise to get the buainess* tell the
truth in your ads to keep the busi
ness. That's the road to prosperity.
