There is an old saying which says that anything is better late than never. That is our fix. We have been straining every nerve for the past three days in an endeavor to issue a paper yesterday and wish you all, individually and collective ly a very happy and prosperous New Year at that time. We re- gret very much that we were unable to get our machinery in shape to issue 8 paper yester- day, but the darned old press won't run with out persuasion and as We could not get the motor connected we were un- able to persuade it in a way it would understand. How ever here We are at last and We hope you will overlook and eX- cuse our unavoidable lapses and We now wish you all very happy and prosperous New Year. We thank you for the patronage of the past year and hope to be able to serve you in the same capacity to our mutu al advantage for some time to come.

The year just opening prom ises to be the banner one in the history of ketchikan and the district surrounding her. The town itself is on bigger, more permanent basis than ever before, with finer build ings, better streets, more pro- gress and energy displayed a. mong her population than al any other period Of her eX- istence. Unless all signs fail, this year will see the mining industry of the ketchikan district as sume proportions never before attempted, and this at widely scattered points. The salmon market is showing a marked improvement. all, or practically all the existing canneries will operate. and new ones are talk ed of. The price of halibut re- mains good. The demand for our lumber is steadily improv- ing, so that taken all in all, 1914 certainly looks good to us.

Black Hole of Calcutta.

The innate corruption and depravity
of human nature were perhaps never
more clearly brought out than in the
historic Black Hole of Calcutta. That
atrocity stands unrivaled as an In
stance of the utmost suffering human.
ity can endure, passed through by a
large number, yet leaving few sur
viVors to tell the tale Many more
have been slain or executed at one
time, death being expected; but
probably only safe keeping of the pris-
oners was intended, and only fear of
breaking a despot's sleep prevented
their earlier release. Yet this torture,
unequaled in history of fiction,
whose record cannot be read unmoved
after the lapse of hundred and fifty
years. was produced merely by crowd
ing men together in an i'll ventilated
room. No fires, racks, nor scourges
were needed; all that was done or re-

which he was accustomed, crush him
into close proximity with his fellows,

Sick headache, biliousness, dizzi-
