A preacher of recognized sin cerity and humility expresses our thoughts precisely in the following:
 "The years and more of pub lie service have brought the writer face to face with every kind of character. It is but to tell the truth to say that as between gossipers and other moral perverts, I put the gos- siper at the bottom of the list.
 The drunkard, the gambler, the thief, the murderer, are ali white and shining angels in my judgement, as compared with the gossiper.
 May heaven rid us of these long-tongued vipers that suck the blood of the good names and pure character like some famished leash of torment >
 The wise man learns he should not overwork a dollal any more than he would q horse. Three per cent is a small load for it. to draw; six, 2 safe one; when it pulls in ten for you it's like work ing out West and you've got to watch to see that it doesn't buck. When it makes twenty, you own either a blame good ''critter" or a mighty foolish one, and you want to make lead sure which; but if ii draws a hundred it's playing he races or something just as hard on horses and dollars. And the first thing you know you won't even have a carcass 70 haul to the glue factory.

own than most other Alaska owns of equal size. You know hat. Hyder can do what oth- ar towns of it's size can do, if we think so and make up our minds not to confine our eff 'orts to little things altogether; rot to "shy off" from sizable undertakings.
 Big towns are built by doing Jig things. Big things are done when the man power and the financial power is thrown to- sether and made to cooperate n a common cause. There is only on thing that can keep Iyder from becoming a big own and that will be failure Q pull together toward the general welfare. When four horses pull together conscienti- ,usly, we have a genuine four lorse power. If one of them julks, we have only three horse power. If one of them pulls in the opposite direction, ne neutralizes the efforts o1 )ne of the remaining three and we have only two going for ward.
 Let us try a few years with ] long strong pull all together. Nothing is gained for a town by any other course. It is not necessary that we all agree Dn politics, religion, or or 1ozens of other subjects. No. body expects that and it prob. lbly wouldn't be a good thing Or us if we did. But we must agree on the one big idea of loing something worth while or our town. Not individually put collectively--all for one md one for all.
 Little jealousies, little pre- iudices, and little dislikes are 70 no purpose in a big cause. The man you don't like today will soon pass on and be in his grave and so will you. The next generation won't know or care whether you agreed or not but the next generation will take note of whether we ouilded wisely and got results or whether we loafed on our opportunities.

The announcement last week that the Riverside mine will resume operations within a brief season is a pleasing ter imitation to the long period ot uncertainty regarding the fut- ure of that property. The brief suspension of activities has shown that the loss of busi- ness resulting from a perma- nent shut down of the mine would be a matter of serious moment to the community at large as we'll as to the business interests. Although the pros poets are that a much smaller crew will be employed under the new management, the pay. roll alone will place many thousands of dollars in local circulation, with resultant ben efits to everyone.
 In addition to the direct fi- nancial benefits to be expect ed from a resumption of ac- tivities, the community will al so profit in an inestimable degree as a result of the ad- vertising a producing mine provides. This cannot be meas ured in dollars and cents but is nevertheless of tremendous benefit to the country. But for the publicity provided by the spectacular Premier mine, the district would probably be but little more advanced today than it was ten years ago.
 In this connection it may al- so be said that the community as a whole is sincerely glad that the control of this fine property has been secured by Messrs. J. D. Littlepage and M. J. St. Clair. The existence of the mine is due primarily
 
 to the faith and persistence of MT. Littlepage. It is true that others supplied the means, but this does not in the least di- minish the fact that it was he who daily confronted and ov- ercame the trials and labors and Encouragement of turning a most unstable prospect into a valuable mine.
 He has labored hard and well for the reward that should accrue from his new tenure of the property and he has the best wishes of the com munity in the new venture.

cord, in which the "Shot heard round
