Now that the merchants and
business men of the community
are lending their efforts through
the medium of the Chamber of
Commerce to fostering and en
couraging the development of the
country, is it not just and fair
that you should give some con
sideration to what is manifestly
the duty of all good citizens,
namely, to support and encour
age them in their efforts? Isn’t
iit about time you laid aside that
long standing habit of just mere
ly watching; that old indolence
which has contributed so much
to the fading prosperity of the
camp? Don’t ton think that
when others are making all
possible effort for the advance
ment of themselves and their
neighbors, that it is up to you to
get in and do your bit to help
things along? If you are the
least bit discerning you have long
ago realized the futility of mere
ly waiting for something tn
"turn up." You, like many an
other, have been longing for
years for capital to come and do
v-^—'—; : —
for you what you believed could
not otherwise be done.
But capital did not come, large
ly because we made little or no
effort to awaken interest in what
thc country holds. It never oc
curred to us that we were our
selves to blame for thc Absence
of interest on the part ofinvestors.
Also it never occurred to us until
recently that ,in the absence of
Capital, we might well devote
our attention to doing something
to develop the country ourselves.
\lthough we knew that the dis
trict wa6 tlhe repository of an
almost inexhaustible store of
mineral wealth wc were content
to continue waiting for the com
ing of capital year after year
without making a single deter
mined attempt to force develop
ment by other means. So ob
sessed were we with the idea that
capital alone could develop the
county that everything else was
forgotten — including the ex
tremely practical proverb that
"God helps those who help them
selves " The business element of
the community has now awaken
ed to the fact that the future of
thc camp depends solely upon
tiie efforts we ourselves shall
make. They realize there is not
the least hope that capital will
come to take up the burden of
developing the country. The
business men now see plainly
(jnough that! if we are to go
ahead it must be by our own
effort?! and not by waiting for
someone else and they are set
ting about the task with an en
ergy that we would all do
well to emulate.
At least we can do no less than
to offer all possibe encourage
ment. Encouragement is often
a most valuable assistance, espe
cially when one is striving
lagain^t difficulties such as are
presented to the members of the
local commercial body. Remem
ber that they are working for
you; for your interest, your wel
fare, your advancement, as well
as their own. The situation is
such that not one effort of theirs,
if brought to the contemplated
conclusion, but will assist you in
one way or another.
AMERICAN ENLISTERS
CAUSE BRITISH TROUBLE
LIVERPOOL — Americans
who illegally enlist in the Brit
ish army are giving much trou
ble to the authorities. Numbers
of muleteers and seamen of Am
erican birth have joined the
army during the past few
months, as British subjects, giv
ing false names and addresses.
Many enlisted in a Liverpool
Irish regiment, and dozens who
have been detected have recently
been sentenced to varying terms
of imprisonment. Some went
from one recruiting office to an
other, attesting at each under a
different name and drawing a
Hay’s pay and ration allowance
every time.
The number of these cases has
been kept secret, but it is be
lieved to run into the hundreds.
John Joseph Kandy was sen
tenced at Blackpool to four
months’ imprisonment for en
listing in the Seventh Liverpool
regiment as an Englishman, and
not registering as an alien.
PLAN REVEALED
FOR REVOLT IN
BRITISH INDIA
(SHANGHAI—Plans for a
wholesale uprising against the
British authorities in India were
divulged in a veiled manner to
day in the English supreme
court. Sidmond Hay Abbass
;\\as sentenced to fifteen years
imprisonment and his son, Os
wald Abbass to two years for
illegal traffic in arms, in viola
tion of the British defense of the
realm act. Both are naturalized
British subjects.
The evidence showed that the
father and son had engaged in
selling to the enemies of Great
Britain 15,000 rides, 100 revolv
ers and about 1,500,000 rounds of
ammunition, the recipients of
which, it was charged, intended
to deliver them in India, Ceylon
and the Straits Settlements, with
a view to their use in rebellion
against the British government.
D. Goldman, a British subject,
was previously convicted for en
deavoring to act as agent for a
German subject in chartering a
ship which was believed to be
intended for use in connection j
with a shipment of arms to In- |

There’ s one rubber 1
boot that has
“made good’ in
Alaska and that’s the
Goodrich
“HIPRESS”}
White Bcot
“With the Red-Line
’round the Top”
you |cnQW when a Hoot
comes in and simply sweeps the country
like “HIPRESS” has done, it's GOT to
be SOMETHING" UN USUAL-for Alaska wear I
is the supreme test for Boot Quality.
White Goodrich “HIPRESS” Boots actually wear longer than iron or steel!
You don’t have to half-sole them with leather —they far outwear hob
nailed leather soles.
The reason for this unusual service Is that “HJPRESS” are constructed by
an entirely new process—fifty yean ahead of the old-fashioned boot. They
arc made of the same tough rubber that goes into Goodrich Auto Tires—
welded together under enormous pressure INTO ONE SOLID PIECE 1
There’s nothing to came apart—they can’t leak, peel, crack or split!
They’re comfortable, too—shaped to the foot while its working. We
promise that once yeu start wearing White “HJPRESS” you’ll never be
satisfied with anything else.
And remember—there is but ONE “HIPRESS” Boot —it has
a Red-Line ’round the Top.
DEALERS i If not already stocked on “HJPRBW writs st ones for samples and prices.
This it the boet selling, best wearing Boot eerer put into Alaska.
