the Lord
Are we glad when Sunday
comes and il is time to join with
our neighbors aud friends in wor-
ship to the one who gives us all tn
blessings which we have; or do VI
have a bag of excuses handy upon
which TO drawl Probably you are
tired because you have thought
too much OF pleasure or some TEN
poral labor. Perhaps you thinl,
Sunday IS day to play.
Oh! people. You who suppose
yourselves to be Christians, ca
You imagine giving our Lord such
frail excuses as these when his
clear gaze is upon you noting the
inmost thought of our hearts
Can we say to him that we can,
when he knows that his spirit
not in the heat and that is the
reasonY
Those who have IL real reaso
for not going to the house of Ged
need not feel guilty before him be
cause he meets with them where
they are, but we who are able bod
led and free to 90 should tax
heed of the responsibility that the
name of Christian places upon Us
and be "Glad" with the psalmist
when it is time to go unto the
house of the Lord.
The way to be glad is 10 draw
nigh unto God during the week,
read his word, commune with him
and learn that he really mean,
what he says. Then when Sunda,
comes we are all alive to the thing
Of God and are anxious to 90
whle the same spirit Is In evil
dence in our fellow men.
Oh come Il ct us go with glad
ness and singing unto the house o.
our God.

CACTUS FRED EXPECTS
BIG BUSINESS AT THE
LAST CHANCE" BAR

When Cactus" Fred Russell opens
his Last Chance Bar" and Gambling
Den at the end of the 'Pay Streak
Trail" on the opening day Of the sec
ond annual Days of 40" celebration,
the key to the door will be thrown
in the briny deep of the River de
Flag. From then on, through hectic
nights and four stirring days, visi-
tors to the most unique celebration in
America will be treated to taste of
what life was really like in the days
of gold"
Located in a specially built shack,
the bar will be built of beer kegs, the
standby Of the early day saloon keep
er. Rough lumber viii be used for
tables, chairs and furnishings. Sperm
oil lights, candles and other methods
of Illumination used in the Days of
'49'' viii be in evidence.
The presence of Cactus Fred
Russell, sole owner and proprietor of
the place, will probably be sufficient
to insure more or less harmony, for
it's rumored that Fred had II notches
in his gun when he opened up the
Last Chance Bar ana GamDung Den
on Pay Streak Trail.

sible relationship between Rocky
Mountain sheep and those found in
the Far North.
Mr.. HolZworth struck north from

The Army's enlisted strength has

PERSH|NG WARNS
!: !. OF REDUCED ARMY
General Says Situation De.

Trained Defense Nucleus.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA. October 9.-Gen.
John j. Pershing broke the silence
he has maintained for over a year
to publicly sound warning last night
that the Army has been reduced to a.
point below which we cannot go
without most serious results
Speaking before the Military Order
of the World War, the Commander
OF the American Expeditionary Force
told his one-time soldiers that the
world ''is not yet free from jealousy
and cOvetouSnesS," and that the "Situ-
alton at home now and in the future
demands the maintenance of a highly
developed nucleus" for national de-
fenSe.
Hits "VOciferOus Minority
Only a "vociferous minority is OPP
posed to such a program, he asserted,
adding:
There can he no earthly justified
ton for saving a few million dollars
a year on the Army during peace, if.
as a consequence. we must spend
many billions in an emergency in an
attempt to make up deficiencies.
ne UfHerence between an adequate
ana inadequate system is not sufficient
TO warrant the risk. There is q point
below which we cannot go without
most serious results, and we have
reached that point"
The general, departing from a dis.
cusSlon of the Army, referred to what
ne described as an unusual condition
Of laWlessness" throughout the coun-
try.
1t is not to our credit that an I'M
usual condition OF laWlessneSs exists
IN our country today" he said High
handed criminals escape the law and
20 unpunished. Officials elected by
the people fail in the enforcement Of
law.
Matter in Peoples Hands.
How long this will continue de-
pends entirely on the people them
selves. We may as well be warned OF
our fate unless good citizens rise up
and demand q change.
The busy lives of present day
Americans TOO often absorb their
thoughts to the exclusion of that con-
S!deration Of the obligations of citizen
snip upon which Il safe and sound GOV
ttnInent under the Constitution rests. /"
The general also appealed to his
audience not 10 forget that the basis
OF our Government is the community"
and the citizens are directly responsi.

order are preserved"

 These Terms of Court.

It seems to the average layman that some way could be found to arrange the calendar of the U S District Court in this Division with some regard to the residents and the geography of the division.
 Again we witness the spectacle of term of court in the East end of the division with most of the from the Central and Western part. This involves not only great and unnecessary expense to the Gov ernment but ltgants, witnesses, grand and petit j TOTS have to be absent from their homes, work and business an unnecessary length of time, frequently involving great financial sacrifice.
 At the present term at Cordova there were three important cases from Kodiak alone involving great many witnesses These are taken past two cities in which the Department of Justice maintains build ngs for court purpOses they will be absent from telr homes about two months
 Now we can not why term Of the district court called for Cordova could not finish there the business arising from the Copper River country and Prince William Sound then by dismissng all but member of the jury, adjourn to Seward and then hear the cases arising from the Railroad Belt and South western Alaska The schedule should be arranged with due regard to the arrival and departure Of the SS Starr so that the majority of the itigants wit nesses etc. would be no more than two three weeks from their homes.
 We understand that to the Westward there are many who would ike to get their citizenship papers, but on account of the uncertainty of the court terms it is impossible for these people to get their papers without great loss. Some of these applicants are odtimers and real pioneers of the Northland, they are mostly independent fishermen and without tgur- ing the loss of time involved it costs of these people S5OOOO or more to get their citizenship un- der present conditions.
 SURELY SOME EFFORT SHOULD BE MADE TO CORRECT THIS!
