LETT BE \ MERE RUMOR.

There is a persistent rumor going the rounds that Eetchikan is about to lose another efficient and popular official in the person of Assistant District Attorney Holzheimer. That official has only been here a short time, nevertheless. he has made good and while his departure will be re- gretted by all the lawabiding residents, we shall have the consolation Of knowing that in our loss another Alaska town will be the gainer.
 Of course everybody will hope that the ru- nor has TO foundation. However, it is said that he is about to receive the appointment of Dis trict Attorney for the Third Division with his headquarters at Valdez.
 It may be selfish on our part. but it does not 6etrsct from the fact that we hate like sixty to lose him. It is true that he is a Democrat that in itself is awful: despite all that We had party made up our mind to overlook the horrible brand because we believe him to be the right man n the right place

NAVAL
MILITIA NEEDS

Uncle Sam, through the navy depart
ment, is giving earnest consideration
to the assignment of ship to the ma
val militia of Hawaii for training pur-
poses. >...... r.
Governor Pinkham took up the mat
ter of ship with Secretary Josephus
Daniels last month, and has made
public the reply which he received.
Judging from the letter, Hawaii's ma
val militiamen will soon have boat
all their own in which to train. The
letter follows: ....<. 49,. ~.
"Sir: / have your letter Of January
10, 1917, inelosing a letter from the
commanding officer Of the Naval Mill
tia of Hawaii, relative to the assign
ment of ship for the use Of that or
ganization. .. -.-
THE department is keenly alive to
the needs of the Hawaiian Naval Mill
tia for a ship for training purposes,
realizing full well the handicaps inn
posed on the organization under pres
ent conditions. .:
Every effort is being made to meet
the growing demand for ships, and in
the assignment of vessels, the request
for a vessel in Hawaii will receive
most careful consideration, especially
in view of the strategic importance Of
the islands. #... r..

some time in June, and under the

These are stirring times" added
the officer, who has already been in
two of these parades. and most men

see hats lifted to the flag as it goes
