Why the Dollar of 1904 IL Rare.
There are two stories regarding the
rarity OF the silver dollar OF 1904. the
most generally accepted one being the
one which accounts for the scarcity by
saying that they were sent to Africa to
pay the soldiers engaged In war be-
tween this country and TripoIi. There
were only 1850 Of them coined. An
other version OF the story which ae-
counts for their rarity Is that a vessel
bound to China with almost the entire
mlntage of that year was lost. The
former story appears to be the most
likely explanation.

What the changes mean to work of the Association in Bisbee can not be easily estimated. The increased space will add greatly to the comfort of the members of the organization. and will enable the officers to con duct the various lines of work along approved lines and to accommodate much larger number of men and boys than under the old arrangement.
 Secretary Pollard said yesterday that the building of the new addition was one of the best things that could happen to Bisbee, as 1t will enable the Association to offer to young men many of the features of home life that are lacking here for the large number of young men who board away from

Our Country $ Flag
By Bentley .Colinette

By Bentley Colinette
 It is glorious to reflect, in the midst of all patriotic outbursts, that the chief glory of the United States, is not rep- presented by a single star of dominant power or brilliancy, but by Milky Way;srefecting the genius, the ardor, and sound common sense of myriads of citizens.
 Military and naval excellence, the 4 Id over, embodies very high dew A ,.,ment of nationhood. Devotion to a flag is everywhere the most legitimate and most thrilling source of inspiration; but there is one uncommon characteris- tic of the United States in this respect it can and will lead in patriotic fer vor. A prominent part of it's successes. for one hundred and twenty years has been due to men who loved their coun- try and honored it's fag-they have de- servedly won their right to soldier or sailor knighthood.
 Up from the ranks they have come: from George Washington, Perry, Far ragut, Grant, to Teddy Roosevelt heroes all. The flag they have defend ed on so many sanguinary battlefelds on land, and on the boundless oceans, owes it's prestige largely to peaceful 'cens, who found their proper spheres | rough the stress and accident of the times which developed them. There is glory enough under our flag for all. The American forces have no record of either disgrace or defeat whether the field was Mexico, Cuba, Porto Rico, China or the Philippines.

Dr. Hud@in and Party Will Visit Ray River Hot Spring

Dr. J. H. Hudgin and Frank & Gra- ham will start for the Ray river hot springs just as soon as the weather moderates. The intention of the party is to spend at least a month and possi- bly a longer time at the springs.
 The doctor made similar trip last summer and was favorably impressed with the possibilities of that section, and on this occasion will make a more thorough examination of the springs and the surrounding country. Indians state that the internal heat at the hot springs keeps an area of 15 square miles free of snow all winter.
 It is said not to exceed 1000 people are spending the winter in the Dawson end of the territory. Five years ago there was that number of men hanging around saloons and roadhouses saving wood for their board and booze.

Government Pie Eater Wants
 The Whole Trough to Self

The Ketchikan Journal publishes a long winded article on the question of territorial government for Alaska, sign ed by Wm. A. Kelly. All the old ches- nutty arguments, that have been ans wered thousand times, are used. Among them the malicious and internal lie that the object of those seeking self government for Alaska is ''that men with itching palms may hold office and subsist on the peoples money derlved from more taxation" We don't know for sure, but we will bet our Sunday shirt that the author of the article is the same Kelly, of Sitka, who has had his rusty, moth eaten mug hitched to the government pie counter ever since he first came to Alaska.
