BOY SCOUTS ENJOY
VERY PLEASANT EVENING

The Boy Scouts of Cordova held
their meeting in their headquarters In
the city hall last night, there being
only one absentee. The regular
monthly business was soon trans
acted and the Scouts then adjourned
to the scoutmaster's home and en-.
joyed the evening in playing games
of crokinol and carroms, with some
sweets on the side, while two new
applicants took preliminary tender
foot tests in anticipation of soon be-
coming scouts. Music also helped in
making the, evening pleasant and en-
joyable.
The applicants, Barth O'Loughlin
and Don Foster, did very we'll in their
preliminary tests and expect to take
the final tenderfoot test soon and
wear the bright tenderfoot badge to
show that they passed with honors.
The scoutmaster would like to see
some more of the boys around town
pass the test and become scouts and
have the privilege of wearing the
scout badge and uniform and using
the Boy Scout equipment on hikes
and camps.

But we must also bear in mind that
our main trails into the Nizina ana
Chisana placer diggings are still in
complete and we want the improve
ments to continue along the Sour
dough trail which were started SO well
last seasons With our new bridge
over Mccarthy creek, and the ap-
proach on the other side graded, a
well finished trail will make those
ranches and mining camps more ac-
cessible, and, considering that NC
Carthy derives much of its summer
income from these regions, we should
endeavor to make them more get-at-
able.-McCarthy News.

We repeat what we Nave already
said about the tactical blunder Of
the Republican leaders II we were
those leaders. we should from a
purely party point Of view ratify the
Treaty as soon as possible. Our pol

campaign this summer to put the Re

Whoever wishes to he a leader or
the American people must look To-
ward the future. He cannot lead by
merely critieising the actions Of the
past. II Lincoln had simply attacked
the preposterous doctrine of Buch-
anan that State had no right TO
secede. but that if II attempted to
secede the Nation had no right to
coerce it, he never would have been
elected President. He led a cam
paign, not of obstructive criticism,
but of constructive craftsmanship.

nents and made almost no ,construc-
tive announcements as to the Euro
