seiner is a big question. Will he
make money without having to
“bootleg”’ the fish from closed
areas, and will he be able to
steal the fish without getting
caught and paying a fine of $400
dollars? Unable to make a liv
ing, they still go out fishing.

REPORTS FROM RUPERT
Reports from Prince Rupert
printed in the Rupert Daily
News of the 22nd were loud in
praise of the Westminster Glee
Club which will be here tomor
row night at the MacGregor
Theatre.
This is the best group of sing
ers that has been on the Coast
in a long time, according to the
NEWS.
Musical organizations of Ru
pert, Ketchikan and Juneau are
making it possible for the Glee
Singers to come to the Territory.
The appearance of the Club in
Petersburg is by the sole effort
of Mr. MacGregor who believes
the public music lovers enough
to give a splendid audience.

HELPING PUSH OR JUST
RIDING £
-X- , jj
In days that have gone by before S
the Interstate Commerce Com- p
mission and other things that p
have contributed to prevent, the jj
railways were accustomed to jj
carry a lot of passengers on £
passes. They were known by jj
the general name of ‘dead- £
head.’ S
There are very few deadheads p
riding on railway trains nowa- jj
days, but there are a lot of dead- jj
heads in almost every line of jj
business and town. |
Many years ago it was recog- jj
nized that organization was a jj
good thing. g
Everyone is familiar with the g
expression, ‘United we stand; g
divided we fall!” and with the g
other expression, made by the jj
wise Benjamin Franklin, that ‘If g
we don’t hang together, we will g
all hang separately.’ g
Every town of any worth has g
its organization that has proven g
its value to the community ov- g
er and over again. Not many g
care to contemplate what the g
home town would be without ■«
such organizations or institu
tions. Yet there are many in
every town—not excepting our
own home town—who are will
ing to ride but are not willing to
put their shoulders to the wheel
and push. They are willing to
accept the benefits provided by
the efforts and money of others
but are unwilling to contribute
to the cost.
And because it is impossible to
confine benefits to only those
who make the effort and spend
the money, there always will be
a lot of spongers—those who are
willing to receive only and give
nothing. And worse still, get a
real peeve when called for riding
a good horse to death.
