HAPPY NEW YEAR.

To the people of Valdez, of this section and the whole of Alaska, the Prospector wishes Prosperous New Year. We trust that the great future of this northland will no longer be retarded by fool conservationists, who have locked up the resources of the territory, preventing their use. We trust that congress will give to this northland a fair measure of the time and attention needed to settle the pol icy of the government towards the territory, and we feel certain that when congress shall have authorized the building of roads and trails and the construction of railroads the prosperity of the north is assured.
 We wish. to all Happy New Year

SPANISH KING IS
 GAY YOUNG BIRD
(Continued from page l.)

(Continued from page 1.) Princess Victoria, British princess, is married.
 It is generally believed here that the queen will seek divorce or a separation. It had always been nthought that the two were happily married and that the young king had forsaken the gay life he was known to have lead prior to his marriage, and the publication today of the story of his escapade with Princess Marie has caused much chagrin.
 The matter will be the subject of diplomatic inquiry between the Brit ish government and the Spanish king.

SMITH WINS IN
CREDITORS SUIT
Federal Court Grants Motion
for Hearing to Allow Smith
to Liquidate Claims

victory for f. NJ. Smith has been
won by his attorneys in securing a
favorable opinion handed down today
by Federal Judge NJ T. Dooling on
their motion for a hearing to allow
Smith to liquidate the claim pre-
sented on July "a by number of
creditors.
On that date petition in involun-
tary bankruptcy was filed by Leo r.
Dickey, E. E. Gilman, Albert Hanford,
the Union Land company and a num-
Der of others whose claims aggre-
gated $1T7,786.50. The attorneys for
Smith held that the value of the Sc
curities in the case of j. NJ. Kane was
undetermined, and that all the other
claims were unliquidated. Three
questions were left for Judge Doo1ing
to determine, as follows: Have suf-
ficient number OF petitioners signed
the petition? Do they hold claims
against the respondent to the amount
required by the statute? and should
the matters not be determined in the
manner suggested? Judge Dooling
held that the questions should be de-
cided in accordance with the motion
made by Smiths attorneys and de-
cided in favor of liquidation of the
claims. which is regarded as a strong
point for Smith.
