PUBLISHER’S NOTICE.
With the issuf* of the Yukon Valley Nf.ws
of August 7, next, the publication of the
paper will cense, at least temporarily. No
business will he accepted for a period ex
tending beyond that date. Subscribers who
have paid in advance will have the money
for unfulfilled contracts returned.
PERSONAL ANNOUNCEMENT.
In announcing the early discontinua
tion of tliis publication, the opportunity
is taken to thank a generous public for
a liberal patronage and a warm friend
ship. Flush times and dull times, the
paper has done a good business when its
limited field is considered, and its short
comings have uniformly been condoned
and its merits extolled The press, es
pecially, in such parts of the States as
the paper has gone as well as in Alaska,
has lieen complimentary to an excep
tional degree This has been more fully
appreciated because the man who has
made the paper is more of a printer
than an editor and also because the
work of printing the paper has been so
exacting that the editorial duties could
receive but slight attention. Noth
ing has been written for the pajier:
such original matter us has apjieared in
it was simply set up at the printer’s
ease, without copy and usually without
notes. Under such conditions the re
sults have lieen unsatisfactory to myself.
Indeed, the principal reason for sus
pension is that it is physically ini|H>ssi
hlc to continue doing enough work to
make the publication even passably
creditable.
The ptijier is finishing its third year.
What its influence in the community
has lieen is indeterminate. It is true,
however, that at its inception no man
or woman's eharut ter in the camp was
saf** from attack by a publication then
existing here, and the |»aop|e wen di
vided into factions and hatred amt spite
an.l malice ruled. Suclt a condition
does not exist Inlay. If the Yukon
Valiev News aided e\er .0 slightly in
the I s’tier merit its la)s>r has not lieen
in vain. .
It is only just to remind the pu|*.r's
friend* tltul it *a« through the lilw-rality
an*l puldi. spirit of Mr. Ileetcr that
it wag established and maintained.
Personally I wish here to acknowledge
the many obligations I owe him as my
friend and unexacting business asso
ciate.
If it so falls out that renewed strength
should warrant me in again assuming
the responsibilities of the paper's pub
lisher, my aim will be, as it has been,
to keep in close sympathy with the
people, such as they are, rather than to
chastise them into what I myself or
others more powerful would have them
to be. Respectfully,
SAM .T. CALLAHAN.
Under the present law the militia of
the several states may he ordered from
one state to another or compelled to
undertake any service obligatory on the
United States regulars. This places in
easy call a strong force if needed for
coast defense. It has lately been stated
that the state militia v, ill soon number
over 400,000, giving the national gov
ernment a virtual standing army of half
a million men. This has become a
cause for alarm to some, who fear that
so great a force may prove an incentive
to “strong” military action at home.
At last accounts the hospital doctor
thought the Jap who spat on the Amer
ican flag in Los Angeles would recover.
Questioned if Dell
Passed Through Tanana
Regarding the statement printed in
this paper last week that Herman Dell,
wanted for assault on Wally Laboski,
was seen in Tanana on his way to the
Innoko, it is certain that Commissioner
W. 15. Ballou believes the statement er
roneous, and consequently that injustice
was done to Deputy Marshal Vautier at
Tanana.
On the commissioner’s return from
Tanana last week he said there are sev
eral persons in Tanana who know Del If
and they saw nothing of him. Me also
said Deputy Marshal Vautier had been
on the alert and has no reason to lie
lieve the accused man went through that
place.
of course it is not conclusive pr<»of
that because Dell was not seen or heard
of by the deputy, he was not in Tanana
at all. Several js'ople might have seen
the man and refrained from ti lling the
ollicer—from fear of living held as wit
nesses or numerous other reasons.
It is practically certain that “Windy”
Williams claimed to have talked with
Dell in Tanana, just as this paper stated ;
and it is current re|sTt that jwople
a ross the divide believe Dell went to
the llilioko.
Now since the man is gone the matter
i< of n ii o' importance anyway. It docs
not necessarily follow that the Tanana
deputy was Ian in his duty, even if it is
a fact that I Ml was in his town.
