MAY CHANCE
 HIS VOCATION

The Stroller int. ld5 leaving the coast sometime during the end of this week, and expects to be in
 Whitehorse by the 9th of February. He is exceedingly sorry that he has had to imnose upon the goodness of his assistants for such a long per iod, as h. did not contemplate stay ing so long when he left here. How ever, he thinks that he will be able to even up somewhat with the min ister by preaching some Sunday ev- ening in the church. He is assured that there would ! q large con- gregation, and that the church cof- fers would not suffer in any way because of his presence in the pull pit. This may be one of the Stroll CTS New Years resolutions and doubtless will be forgotten just as soon as it was made. But no mat ter whether he breaches or not, either in the pulpit or out of it, we will be pleased to see him in our midst once more.-Whitehorse Star.

WANT BETTER
 NAIL SERVICE

Bert Ford, who recently returned to Valdez from the Chisana, states that much dissatisfaction is felt by the American miners iu the White River country because of the poor mail serYice from the coas. to the new camp. While it Is true the government has inaugurated a twice a month service from Mccarthy to Chisana, it is carried by anyone will ing to take the mail into the camp for $50 for which they must agree D hrlas back the mail from camp. Only first class mail is hand led. The mail is drcLTed at each roadhouSe and whoever wants to may pick out their own mail, as a result no one cansead in money to the camU and money is scarce in there so that no one will cash check
 This lack of confidence in the mail prevents the prospectOr, who is willing to prospect ard develop his claim, from securing the money for the work and they are driven to the coast. ."-Yaldez Minac.

DESIRE FOR CONVENIENCE
 CAUSE OF HIGH COST

Washington, Jan. 31-The desire for convenience is the cause of the high cost of living, according to National Democratic Committeeman Fred B. Lynch, of Minnesota, who quoted a number of instances to prove his contention while Bitting In a Washington hotel lobby the other day.
 The average purchase in 8 del icatessen store I know of in St. Paul is 31 cents", be declared. Tt was found to deliver this order cost : cents. After more investigation along this line a friend of mine, who had been put in charge of the store. cut out his delivery wagons, his telephones, and every other item which could possibly be Topped off, and then he cut his prices. The housewife has to go to the store her self and bring her goods home in a basket, but she pays only IT cents a pound for porterhouse steak, Is cents for round steak, and 12 cents for pork and mutton. Think what could be done along the same lines In New York where It Is said the cost of delivering meats and groceries is 37 per cent!
 "I have long known that tele- phones have been largely instru- mental in increasing the cost of living. It Is time the people should make a study of how to elimin- ate expenses that are not neces- sary, when dealing with the prob lem of how to cut down the cost of living"

WOMEN LIKELY
 ID MN OUT

Redwood City, Cal, Jan. 31-In- dications are that the courts will have to decide the validity of the claims filed by the eleven women members of the last San Matee county Grand Jury for S3 daily each during their term of service, and mileage covering their trips to and from the county seat.
 That they will win their case was the general opinion of lawyers here, but for some reason Auditor W. H. Underhill has declined to turn over their fees, iuterposing various technical objections as often as their bills were presented. The women's version is that Underhill was anger ed because they compelled him to make changes in his office manage ment which cost him considerable money and more trouble.
