 PAY EyLOCY DEPARTED

HOPE, Apr. 21.-Owing to the un- usually high esteem in which the late MT. Altamon Knight of Hope was held by his neightbors and friends, both here and in all the surrounding vicin- ity, the people of Hope feel that it is quite in keeping, even at this seem- ingly late date, to in some small way pay tribute to his memory in print, not only for. the purpose of revealing to the readers thereof that there are those in the world who value true worth wherever found, but who are glad and ready to eulogize where hon. or is due; as well as to set forth the true occurrences at the dime of his passing away.
 During his residence in Hope Mr. Knight endeared himself to all who were privileged to know him. He was the ever-ready friend, the untiring physician and the devoted neighbor to all who came within his magnan- imity. The hour was never too late, the weather too severe, or himself too greatly indisposed to minister to those in need of help, whether of one na- ture or another and the grief felt by those of his friends who knew him best, and who rendered him such last O ccic yrifh hot standing to bestow, is indeed keen in the loss of one so much beloved
 Before coming to Alaska some 27 years ago, MT. Knight was resident of HoQuiam, Washington, as we'll as ot Pendleton, Oregon, and was a native of the state of Iowa. Deceased was 66 years of age. He was member of Pioneer Igloo No. g. He was stricken with paralysis on the morning ot March 30, and lived but few hours surrounded by many of those who lov- ed him best. He was conscious to the last and stated that he was willing to go, now that his time had apparently come, and all his affairs were in or der at all times, as is true of all splendid mentalities; so when the time came to leave no, confusion ex isted for correction by those remain ing behind.
 In the passing away of Mr. Knight the community has suffered the loss of one whose place will not be easily filled. He was laid to rest in the Hope cemetery, simple funeral serv ices being held at his late residence

HARDING BEGINS
LONG JOURNEY
SPECIAL TRAIN CARRYING CHIEF
AND PARTY LEAVES WASH
INGTON FOR WEST
ST. Louis is First Stop Scheduled;
President viii Make Addresses
From Rear of Train; Voice
viii Be AmpIified

Washington. - President Harding
was on the way Wednesday toward
realization of one of the hopes he
has held ever since he entered the
White House nearly two and a half
years ago.
The chief executive has looked for
ward practically ever since March 4,
1921, to the time when he could leave
the capital long enough to visit
Alaska and there study at first hand
the problems which he feels are still
lacking the solution that will make
for proper development of the terri
tory. That time came Wednesday
with the departure from Washington
of a special train carrying Mr.. Hard
ing, Mrs. Harding and party Of
seventy with Alaska as the ultimate
destination.
The first scheduled stop of the
presidential special is at st. Louis
with a seven-hour visit planned for
that city and with the first of the
presidents formal addresses there. 1t
was considered more than probable
when the train left here Wednesday
that the president would open the
speaking portion of the trip with one
or more rear platform addresses be-
fore arriving in st. Louis.
To permit rear platform addresses
to large crowds, special voice am
plifying apparatus has been installed
on the presidents special car. This
will carry the voice of
speaker so as to reach all in crowd
as large as $4,000 persons, whereas
rear platform addresses in the past
usually have been heard only by
narrow circle about the rear Of the
train.
