It is generally conceded by all parties interested that unless some settlement made in disputes over the ownership of many claims Sullivan creek this camp will in short time become the prey of lawyers hired by the contendng parties to defend their claims in court
 This is an unfortunate state of affairs and M parties to disputes should try and get together and settle their d ferences between themselves possible There are always sides to every dispute and for the conendln parties to talk it peaceaby do no har and ma! possibly lead to salvation of the trouble that Will prove advantageous both parties It is certain that the longer the settlement is postponed the difficult the solution Each day will tend to widen the breach increase the harc feelings of the opposing parties and the troubles must then necessarily be taken into court to the injury of all litigants and the general public
 There are very few disputes between fairmnded men that cannot be settled by friendly talk it both are inclined to give way little for the sake of harmony On the otae hand if the case tried in court both parties interested nearly always lose than the value of what was orig nay claimed By the time the lawyers fees and costs o

INTRODUCTION.

The Hot Springs Post today makes it's bow to the people of this district and Alaska in general all of whom expects from until the good Lord> in His mercy fit for us to cease our labors.
 In introducing The Post to the reading public we will say that chief aim at all times will be to con- duct newspaper in the strctest of the word We will try best to get the news and print it when we receive it. The chief feature of this paper will be our Telegraph Service which will not be second to that of any newspaper in Alaska, and which will be increased as business permits.
 In short time will have complete system of creek correspondence by which will be able to secure all the happenings the creeks. This department of the paper will be carefully watched and will serve to increase the knowledge of people in orher localities as to the work now being done and the work planned for the coming year.
 As to the policy of The Post we will at all times endeavor to be nonpartisan in local disputes of any kind We desire united community, and the foster ing of any little dsagreements through these columns will at all times be discouraged. As to the outside pol itics we will have nothing to do The people of Alaska have as yet vote and the preaching of party princi ples in this territory sensees as preaching temper to the average sourdough.
 In conclusion, The Post must express it's gratica- tion and thanks to the people of this community who have welcomed heartily, and given us such sub stantial support in ths-our first issue We only add that it will be our aim at all times to merit con nuaton of their patronage and will give this district the best newspaper it is possible for us to produce

To Organize
 A. B. Camp

In the immediate vicinity of Hot Springs there are many members Of the Arctic Brotherhood from almost every camp under the jurisdiction of the Arctic Queen, and there seems to be a strong sentiment among them to organize lodge of that popular North iand order in this city, In all like lihood a preliminary meeting of the brothers will shortly be called to take the initiativein in the matter, and by the time old Hoary Winter is doing busi- ness in his usual strenuous manner a charter will have been issued by the Grand Lodge for the new Hot Springs camp. ai as
 This is a movement that will be re- ceived with joy by all the socially-in- clined people of the community, and the Arctic Brotherhood order has al ways taken the lead in. social affairs wherever lodge has oeen maintained. There is plenty of good material in and about Hot Springs to form the nucleus for a splendid branch of that social or ganization, and scores of ''cheechacos' are anxious to go over the trail.
 Let's, get busy and push, the good work along.
