The tendency to develop small
jealousies is a feature of the
lucai communal hie tnat is to be
sauxy uepioreU as it is not only
ueciueuiy reprehensible but also
.ms a most irimuitivc ettect on
the general welfare ami progress
01 tne community. Doubtless
such manifestations of human
cussedness are in some degree
part aiul parcel of all communi
ties but it is rather doubtful it
one can be found where they
have attained a greater develop
ment than right here in Nome.
We profess no globe trotting
antecedents but, so far as can be
remembered, we have never en
countered a town wliere this pe
culiar failing was niore manifest,
where there were more petty
jealousies, more trifling , nasty
little spites, more slashing and
backbiting and more underhand
ed jobbing than right here in this
little sequestered burg where b\
all the rules of common sense
should exist a degree of fellow
ship, due to close association and
mutuality of interest, scarcely
attainable in more highly devel
oped comunal centers where
the very conditions of existence
lead naturally to individual isola
tion.
In a community such as this,
where the struggle for existence
contains none of the sinister in
fluences, the innate savagery, so
characteristic of other climes, one
might expect a different state of
affairs. There is no need for a
"dog eat dog” policy in
our relations. We are under no
necessity of crushing or tearing
down some one else in order to
advance ourselves. Here man’s
struggle is primarily against na
ture, not against individuals.
There are few ways in which we
can injure our neighbor to our
own advantage. It is to a stern
but bountiful nature that we look
tor most of what we desire and
there is little to be gained by
damaging those about us. In a
general sense the efforts of the
community are all directed to
ward one object, the endeavor to
wrest from mother earth tliat
which we require for our benefit
and sustenance and there is no
necessity for preying upon our
fellow men. Yet, much to our
discredit, many of us are guilty
of conduct toward our fellows
which shames even the utter
selfishness, the cold (hearted cal
lousness, of the outside world and
is doubly reprehensible in that
there is neither justificable rea
son or excuse. We are living
in an environment where oppor
tunity is open for all and the
chances for one equally as good
as for another. There is obsolute
ly no reason for the all too evi
dent inclination to pull our
neighbor down or to belittle and
condemn his efforts to better his
own condition or dhat of others.
We are betraying a most con
temptible weakness when we
give way to trifling jealousnes or
to bacMbiting and Jobbing those
who are doing us no harm. It is
a despicable tendency and has
done us irreparable harm in that
it has at all times prevented us
from getting together on a basis
of mutual understanding and re
gard to advance the interests of
the community—which in the
last analysis is ourselves.

THE LUCK OF
A CHEEGHAGO
FAIRBANKS.—Some people
would call it luck; others would
say it was a matter of persever
ance, while still others, those who
^believe that "vlhat is to be, will
be,” might thing it would come
anyhow. But at any rate Wal
ter Thompson has struck a big
antimony lead on the right limit
of Vault creek, directly across
the creek from the Friedricks
mine. And it is believed to be
the same lead which is being
worked on dbe Friedricks
ground and on Eagle creek. The
ore is of a very high grade, and
where it was struck, the lead is
about four feet in width.
Thompson is a chechaco.
Which accounts for the fact that
some people may call liis strike
“clicechaco's luck.” For most
old timers of the north believe
that cheechacos are lucky and
therefore always try to get one
for a partner when a prospecting
trip is contemplated.
Mr. Thompson is a relative of
E. P Walters, the well known
Dome creek mining man. He
came north last summer and
worked for a while sniping on
|he Xiggerhead, at the mouth of
Dome creek. He soon got tired
of that, however, and decided to
go outside again, but was finally
induced by a number of "his
friends to try quartz prospect
ing.
And his antimony strike is the
result.—Alaska Citizen.

There’ s (me rubber I
boot that has
“made krood“ in
Alaska and that’s the

“HIPRESS”,
White Boot
“With the Red-Lane
’round the Top’’
You know that when a Boot
comes in and simply sweeps the country
j like “JHI PRESS” has done, it’s GOT to
• he SOMETHING UNUSUAL-for Alaska wear
is the supreme test for Boot Quality.
V\ hite Goodrich HI PRESS” Boots actually wear longer than Iron nr steel!
You don’t have to half-oole them with leather —they far outwear hob
nailed leather soleo.
The reason for thio nnaoual oerviee ia that “HJPRESS” are constructed by
i an entirely new process—fifty years ahead of the old-fashioned l>oot. They
are made of the same tough rubber that goes into Goodrich Auto Tires—
welded together under enormous pressure INTO ONE SOLID PIECE!
There’s nothing to come apart — they can’t leak, peel, crack or split!
They’re comfortable, too —shaped to the foot while its working. We
i promise that emee you start wearing White *‘ HI PRESS” you'll never be
satisfied with anything else.
And remember—there is but ONE “HIPRESS” Boot—it has
. "*•«» * Red-Line ’round the Top.
DEALERS: If not already stocked on “HjPRESS* write at onae for samples and prime
