The staff will observe the proclamation of President Wilson by abstaining from labor and will give thanks for the many mercies which have been grant ed during the past year, for the Prospector has many things for which to be thankful During the past year it's entire printing plant was destroyed by fire but this paper has been enabled to rise from it's ashes and to continue to exert an i'm creased beneficial influence in the upbuilding of this community, and of Alaska generally. The Daily Pros pector has made many new friends during the year as attested by it's in- creasing circulation and advertising patronage.

Thanksgiving Day Services.

In conformity with a time-honored custom the President of the United States has issued a proclamation set Iting aside Thursday, November 25, as a national holiday and has exhort- ed the American people to gather in their respective churches to lay tri- bute of Thanksgiving at the altar of God.
 This is an exhortation to which all |true Americans, churched and un- churched, Unitarians, Jews, Protes- |tants, Greeks and Catholics can most heartily respond without doing vio- lehce to their divergent religious con- victions. For as we all believe in God our Father, the Provider of all !good things, justice demands that we pay Him the homage of grateful chill dren. That the peace we enjoy is a blessing to be thankful for is made apparent by contract with the curse of war brought on Europe by neglect of the principles underlying the 'practical recognition of the Father hood of God and the Brotherhood of Man
 A mass of Thanksgiving will be celebrated in the Valdez Catholic church at 8:3O a. m. tomorrow.
 Special music viii he rendered by the Childrens choir. and a sermon to the occasion will be delivered, entitled. Thanksgiving Day; It's Meaning and Message"
 Non-Catholics are cordially invited nor is their presence in the Catholic Church to be construed as taking a part in our form of worship.
 The evening services at 7:30 will be over at o'clock, so as not to con- flict with the success of the Bazaar of our esteemed Protestant friends.

VALDEZ HOSPITAL
 HAS BEEN CLOSED
Institution Which Has Undoubtedly Saved Many Lives Closes from
 Lack of Support.

Dr. F. c. Dalton has announced that the Valdez Hospital has been closed, and that Miss McDermott who has been in charge during the east summer will leave on the Ala meda for the states. The closing of the hospital is to be regretted as it was a worthy institution and in ev- cry way entitled to the support of the people of Valdez and surrounding country
 Dr. Dalton has carried the burden of keeping the hospital open for sev- vral months and now finds that he is not warranted in doing so any long CT. He has endeavored to secure the co-operation of several mining com panies in this district whereby the burden of keeping the hospital open would fall partly upon those most li- able to need it's services but has been disappointed, as the companies fail ed to favorably respond.
 The Valdez Hospital has been the means of saving many lives which would probably have been lost but for the fact that there was such place where they could receive in- stant care and treatment, and it is to he regretted that some arrangement was not made whereby it would have been possible to have kept the in- stitution open. Dr. Dalton was will ing to give his services as house phy- sician free of charge to those who were not financially able to pay for them and has kept the hospital up to {, high standard.

HIGH TIDE CAUSES
 LAUNCH TO TURN TURTLE

The launch Traveller, which went from Seward to Anchorage, turned turtle in Ship Creek and is reported to be lying bottom up tug having failed to right here and it is feared she may be total loss. The accident was due to the fact that the captain took his boat up the creek and be. lieved he had anchored her in the bed of the stream, but when the tide wen, out it was found that the launch was resting on the steep banks, so that when the water receded she rolled over.

COUNCIL WILL JAR LOOSE FROM .$2,000
Franchise for Hes Power Company Given It's Second Reading
 $12,OOO Outstanding Taxes.

The most important matters con- ing before the meeting of the Valdez City Council last night was the read ing of the franchise asked by the Hes Light & Power company and the de- cision of the council to take up $2O00 of its outstanding warrants.
 The franchise was given it's second and will probably receive its final reading at the next meeting of the council. Under the franchise the maximum rates to be charged by the company for service, including light, power and telephones, will be the same as under the franchise granted the Valdez electric company. The franchise also provides that five per cent of the company's earnings above 1000, shall be paid into the city's treasury and that the municipality shan have the right to acquire the plant and machinery of the company located within the corporate limits at any time at it's physical valuation.
 The question of calling for war rants was raised by Councilman Fini- cal who declared that it would not be good business to let the money re- main in the treasurer's hands while the outstanding warrants were draw ing interest, especially as the council did not need the money. The money will be used in taking up warrants issued by the present council. Dur ing the discussion the fact was dis closed that the present council had issued warrants to the amount of $11,50C. since taking office. This amount had been reduced to $S,0O0 and the present call will bring it down to $6,0O0. The treasurer stat ed that approximately $3,000 ill taxes had been collected, leaving about s12,OOO uncollected, from which it is believed sufficient will be raised to care for the indebtedness and provide for the remainder of their term of office.
 The treasurer's report shows that the present council has taken up $6,5OO of the former councils war rants, of which there are still ap- proximately $IO,5OO outstanding, but no improvements have been made by the present council.
 Following the session of the coun- cil MT. A. B. Hes stated in connec- tion with the franchise which his company is asking that they were prepared to establish very low rate for light and power. as they had suf- ficient water to generate power for three towns the size of Valdez, and that his company would not be over burdened with capitalization and in debtedness upon which the consum- CTS would be expected to pay interest, He announced that immediately after the franchise had been approved he would leave for the States to secure the necessary transformers. wires, etc., to begin business. Everything will be on a fiat rate basis.
 The mayor stated that he had re- ceived a communication from the company owning the salt now stored in the City Dock warehouse desiring to know if the salt could be sold to local fishermen. The salt is relic of the period when Valdez had hopes of becoming the center of thriving halibut industry, but which failed to materianZe.

PREMIUM MAY BE
 OFFERED FOR BONDS
(From Sundays Daily.)

Although no bids for the new court house bonds have been received in answer to the advertisements of the supervisors inviting the same, and despite the fact that there is only a week and day remaining before ten ders must be filed, the board is san guine that the issue will be sold, and perhaps at premium.
 It will be recalled that there were no bidders the first time the bonds were offered for sale, but this class of securities was drug on the market at that time, owing to the outbreak of the European war, and the conSe- quent demoralization of business in every line. Since then, however, things have begun to pick up and in vestors arc looking for an opportun- ity to secure frst-class investments. Many inquiries have been received, which in itself is hopeful sign, but the best indication of interest in the  issue is the report lately heard by clerk of the supervisors, R. I. Belcher from an unofficial source to the effect that a Los Angeles firm will be on hand week from tomorrow with an offer to buy the bonds and pay a premium of $350O for them. In the event that this report proves true it augurs well for the disposal of the issue and at fat premium. The dis mantIing of the old building, the housing of county officers in tempo rary quarters and the work of erect ing the new structure will then follow after the acceptance of plans.

HIGH HONOR CONFERRED
 ON LOCAL LAWYER
(From Sundays Dally)

In recognition of his wide knowl- edge of the law of mines, Judge John J. Hawkins, of this city, was extended an invitation short time ago by the Dean of the Law College of the Uni versity Of Oklahoma, to deliver a series of lectures before the School of Law and has accepted.
 He is preparing to leave Prescott next Wednesday, and will be away for the next month. A series of five lectures are to cover the important topics of the above subject, including Regalian Rights to Mines under the Common Law of England and other countries, and the history of the adoption of the present mining laws of the United States by Congress, and which will also embrace the min ing laws as they apply to mining states of the nation.
 This interesting event will take place at Norman, where the state uni versity is located. The distinction accorded this able juri5t is due to his residence in this mining field for over thirty years. during which time he has probably been associated with more important litigation pertaining to mines and mining than any other lawyer in the state. Many years ago he was Associate Justice of the Su- preme Court of the Territory and pre- siding Federal Judge of this district, when his decisions were regarded as authoritative, and attracted nation wide attention Hence it is but fitting that the selection of this attorney for the responsible duty should have been made.
 Judge Hawkins stated yesterday he will cover the legal features of mines, beginning with the history of mining, the customs of miners and mining regulations, rules of the different dis tricts, discovery and location of mines under the laws of the United States, the patenting thereof, adverse suits, with other causes of actions af- fecting mines, the law of the apex, extra-lateral rights, cross veins, con flicts on the surface and on the dip, decisions of courts and local statutes. as they apply to locating and relocat- ing, and the definition of mining terms.
 It is probable he will also visit other Middle Western states, on a similar mission of delivering series of lectures on the same theme.

STOP ATTACKING
 CAPITAL, SAYS BANKER
(From Saturdays Daily.)

While in Prescott yesterday for a brief visit, E. Suffcrn Tailor, multi millionaire banker of New York city was pronounced in expressing his disapproval of unwholesomc laws en- acted in this state, and also certain proposed ones, wherein he stated the assailing of vital industries was under consideration in which large capital Is to be affected.
 He had been in the Salt River valley for several days, and is en route to the Grand Canyon, thence to the coast to visit the expositions with his wife and children. He said: "Ari- zona is wonderful state, and now is the time to straightcn it out The legislature Is in session, and the op- portunity is at hand. Give the mines d chance to operate and above every thing else quit attacking the railroads and stampcding capital. My observa- tion5 of industrial conditions of Ari- zona have been d revelation to me. It is a shame to throttle them. The motto of every resident of the state should be a square deal With that accomplished, Arizona will reap un- told benefits, and be one of the great est states of the union"
