All Ready To
 Celebrate 4th

Arrangements for the big double day Fourth of July celebration are all complete and the returned sol. diers' club feel more than satisfied with the results of their endeavors. Though the youngest town in Alas ka, they feel sure that Hyder's first Fourth will compare favorably with any celebration held by her older sister towns of the Territory,
 The grounds are in perfect con- ;ition, volunteers having worked there nearly every evening since the question of celebrating was first de- clded. Road Foreman T. H. Evans loaned the government road grader after working hours, Norman Me- Leod turned out with his caterpillar tractor, and when the visiting base- ball boys see the field they will re- ceive pleasant surprise.
 Following is the program, which will be spread over the two days according as the events fit in for convenience:

Editor. The Nirginan:
The Methodist church has produced
during it's somewhat short existence
some of the worlds most wonderful
orators. First of all, George whit
field, who sometimes preached to
audiences comprised of 10000 or
30, 600 people Then, in the course
of time came Bishop Mckendree and
Bishop H 3. Bascom, whose wonder
full oratory yet fingers in the tradi-
tons of the church.
Last, but by no means least, il not
foremost, comes w. w. Walker. OF
Virginia, one of the most marvellous
orators this state has ever had since
writer of this article was a young
writed of this article was a young
man when w. w. Walker canvassed
the state in behalf of the Democratic
party for Gilbert G. Walker, their
candidate 1t is but truth to say that
he thrilled the entire state with his
eloquence.
on one occasion he was to have
held joint debate with J.. II Chand-
ler, the brains OF the Wells machine.
Mr.. Walker spoke first, and such was
the power of his eloquence as he de-
scribed the condition of Virginia, torn
and bleeding from the great war. now
asssiled by some of her own sons
such was his overwhelming pathos
that Chandler burst into tears ana
made no reply when the time came.
But to come to the point, the fine
son of this great man, through his
friend. Senator Downing, has an
nounced his candidacy for the lieu
tenant governor of Virginia. With
intending inxffinItc Gisyyir
ton, we verify believe that the peo-
pie OF Virginia who hold the memory
of W. w. Walker in reverence will
honor his son by a unanimous nomi-
nation for the Office of lieutenant
governor which he seeks.
senator Harding Walker is a sea-
soued statesman who has served
many terms in our state senate and
Is thoroughly qualified for any Of
fee in the state and is worthy OF any
honor that the people of Virginia can
give him.

DO NOT WANT ADVICE.

No wonder The proponents of the

wish to have the opinion Of the Az
torney General OF Virginia as to its
eenst.yusionaiiiy. BY defeating the
resolution Of senator Mapp calling for

there is something more than a sus-
pieion that the trends Of the measure
fesred that the decision would be
against them.
Ii is entirely likely that the At
torney -Ceneral would have been
bound TO hold that the manufacture

was authorized TO exercise under tho
constitution 1t is difficult to under
stand how it may DO So unless IL

ture opium. or manufacture and dis
tribute every other drug needed for

be true. it follows that the sociliSts
are entirely mistaken in their view
that there must be change in the
farm of cur State government before
the state could socialize ali its in
austfies.
II is quite likely. too. that the Al
forney General would have been
obliged to hold that the proposed bill

lairftion law, enacted by congress. In

conflicts arc perfectly Obvious to the
