The above article appeared in the New Years edition of Golfers Week, Iy. a magazine that las a circulation of nearly one million in the United States and Canada. Needless to say the article is a grave injustice to the POrcupine Gold Mining Company, for it leaves the reader with the impres- sion that the concern is insOlvent and unable to pay debts for labor con tracted. In reprlnting the article from the Seattle Times without an investigation, and for making its somewhat harsh comment upon the circumstances-as Golfers imagined them to exist-this magazine deserve severe censure.
 The above clipping from the se- attle Times did appear, as stated, and John Schultz was temporarily denied his money. This was caused by misunderstanding and the following day Schultz and all the other laborers were paid off in virgin gold and there is not a merchant in Haines, skag- way or Juneau who has any fears as to the sOlyency of the POrcupine Gold Mining company,
 They are doing business and doing business on large scale. And they pay as they go.
 In it's anxiety to show some just iHeation for it's original criticism of the POrcupiue company. Golfers has stopped to low and undignified meth Ods. The Seattle Times is not such a reliable paper that other journals can afford to print stories of the na- ture as the one in question without the fullest investigation; and nOtwith standing, Golfers must have been aware that the Times of the following day not only published the story of Schultz and his fellow labOrers- being paid in full. but felt compelled. by a sense of fair play, to make an editor

Haines is at last an incorporated municipality and the voters of the town are to be congratulated upon the wise step they have taken.
 Many advantages will accrue from incorporation and under wise di- rection of the new town affairs there will be no disadvantages to offset the benefits.
