THE NEW YEAR.

Newspapers all over the world are pub fishing appropriate New Years editor ials, so it is up to the NEws-which is the farthest north of them alto fall into line.
 As we want to avoid hackneyed ex- pressions we will refrain from speaking of "wringing out the old and wringing in the new," in fact will refrain from saying anything about wringers.
 There is one thing which should be mentioned, however: The past year has been the most prosperous in the history of Tanana.
 The most noticeable feature of all, however, is the confidence in the future the essence of prosperity. Money is much freer than a year ago, and the merchants say they have done much larger business than ever before No man who is willing need be without work, and altogether Tanana faces the future with confident, certain step. l
 Above all, this hopeful aspect is based on the substantial growth of the town. The Yukon is the natural highway of Alaska, and Tanana is the natural dis tributing point from it to the interior, consequently it is only a question of time when this town will be the metropolis of central Alaska.
 New strikes in the vast area surround ing us have merely confirmed the belief of those who had faith in Tanana's fu- ture growth; while the enlarging of Fort Gibbon military post (which we are as sured will take place when the next shifting of troops occurs), will in itself double the population of the town al most immediately.
 That the wishes of happy and pros porous new year will be fulfilled now seems almost certainty

WHEN POP SWORE OFF.

When pop swore off last New Years My maw was awful glad, Although she sorter cried bit, But that's a way she had. Pop said that he'd done it Jest after Christmas night Except that he was waitin' fer New Years to do it right. When pop swore off last New Years It seemed like he was sore. He scolded maw an kicked the cat Clean through the kitchen door. An as fer me, good gracious, He licked me good enough Jest cause I asked him how it felt To do without the stuff! When pop swore off last New Years He didn't smile fer days, But seemed to nope around the house With jest a stony gaze, An there was simply nothin' That seemed a-pleasin' him. l never see a man so stern An grumpy-like an grim. When pop swore off last New Years It lasted fer spell; But when he started up again Nav said twas jest as well, I guess she knows her business. It made pop act so queer I hope he ain't a-goin' to do No swearin' off this year

Mir. Umpire: Tell your editor that he showed his ignorance last week when, he talked about an automatic revolver. He meant automatic pistol. Only one firm makes automatic revolvers and they are not success. By the way, do you know man can pull a revolver out of the holster, aim, fire and kill-all in a sec ond. How long is a second?
