coRDovA's PAPER.

The CuruuNa Alaskan charges the town of Valdez with acting with poor grace in it's opposition to the newly appointed but un- confirmed marshal of this dlvlS- ion, charging that the opposition here is because the man Is from (,hitina. and because we fear that Ostrander may also be appoint ed and that, working together, Ostrander and ENum will move the court house headquarters to Cor1ova.
 Wrong again.
 The opposition here against Exum is not by Valdez people but by former Curduva people now in this town.
 No man need be ashamed of his ODDOsiliOn to ENum. The records show that he owned and rented houses on the line at Chitina, charging. as is customary by all owners of such places, eXorbitant rentals, taking profits earned by women in houses of ill fame. He is charged with other crimes against deccncy and if they are true he is not a fit man for mar shal of this division. Therefore, believing these things to be true, the people of this section have right to oppose and expect from the decent people of the railroad town that they also will oppose his confirmation Were the Cor t'ova Alaskan to deny these charges and declare that they were not true. then that would be a different matter. but the AlaSkan'S effort to accuse Valdez of opposing EXum because he halls from Chitina is far-frtc chcd. The GurhuNa Alaskan admits the charges against E.Xun but asks that tnr "Hlantl" of charity be thruNN over his shoulders.
 The u"-OslranIrr fac tion have led the fight Ter" against ENuir. and John FrHme, who lived at Curduva for many years. is aiding in the efforts to defeat the Chitina man: II may be true that these men hay" "th- CT motives. iuu if f.Xu!n is deirat- ed it will be hecauSe the charges are true.
 Valdez people know nothing of the past life uf ENum nor of his fitness and have. as a rule. re- maincd quiet and have expected those who know i0 dO the taking. Valdez i., I.aSrd on envy.

TRAPS FOR GIRLS.

The recent raiding of several resorts in Tacoma shows that rN- cry city seems to have it's own way of ruining girls. In Chicago. it is charged, dance hall beer IS druygrd wholesale and alcohol is put into "soft' drinks. Gertrude II. Brilton, a settlement worker, testified before the Illinois vice commiss ion that liquor is sold to girls under i6 in 900 Chicago dance halls.
 "Our investigators learned that reSpecA able dance halls were a good thing, for they provide di- version for many young people without endangcring their mOr- aIs," said Mrs. Brittun. ''but about half the dance halls are immOr- al. The selling of liquor to girls is often the first step to their ruin.'
 The thought occurs that if there are 200 dance halls selling liquor to girls and are therefore to be clasSed as immoral, and that if about half the Chicago dance halls belong to that class, tlie city must be supporting zoo such in- stitutions, good and bad. This seems almost unbelievable, but probably is true, or it would not have been offered as testimony. Then. if dance halls are to be found so numerously, how IS a girl to discriminate. especially if she is a stranger? Girls who turn to dance halls for their amusement do not want to go wrong. but once inside they are rnmeshed before they know it.. Going inside is the fatal step and it's mighty easy to fall inIn the hands of the wolves that turk outs ;dr .--Taroma Tribune.

DR.. PRICE URGES
SCHOOL FOR GIRLS
Wants RefOrmatOry to Aid in
UpIift Work Among
COIOred Race

The Rev. Albert Price is receiving
many compliments of the sermon
that he delivered in Smyrna A. U. M.
f. Church last Sunday the subject OF
which was Christ the Leader" DR..
Price handeled this subject in a mas
terful manner and charmed his audi
ence with his oratorical powers. He
said In part
"If the Master we're on earth at
this time think what the uplift move
ment would amount to. What we
need now most Of all is an industrial
school for colored girls in this State
who are incorrigible. l want every
mother and father to interest them
selves in this great movement in Del
aware. We have long been in need
OF such an institution and are far be-
hind other States in this respect. We
should by all means appeal to the
present Legislature to make neces-
sary appropriations and provisions
for the care of our incorrigible girls.
1t is a Just cause and we can succeed
if we will but show our interest in
the movement for the benefit of our
children. We owe it to the little
ones at home and those who have no
homes. Why there are hundreds Of
people in Delaware who do not know
that there is no place for colored
girls in this State except the work.
house, which certainly is not fitting
place for children Of tender years.
II makes my heart sad to see some Of
these tots who have no one to look
after them and for this reason are
growing up to be bad citizens and
some Of whom may bring disgrace to
our race, simply because they have
had no one to take them in charge
and teach them to lead better lives.
| The question is being asked by many
! persons why we do not appeal to the
proper persons and have this awful
condition remedied. l believe that
there are many good people in this
State who would be willing to lend a
helping hand to such a movement
and / hope every man and woman
here today will fully realize the
greatness of it and the bearing it will
have on our people"
After the sermon many people
pledged their support to the move
ment. A revival is being conducted
