QUARTZ MINING IN ALASKA.

Ihat Alaskas future lies in her quartz mines is a belief that is becoming more and more prevalent among men who have examined the quartz possiidli- ftles for themselves and who are competent to judge In broad sense the statement is equally applicable ttcevery country. There is we'll defined limitation e the life Of placer mining be the deposits large or small, rich cr poor We have already heard of placer claims n this section being worked out in q single season; but to rock mining there is practically no limitation, as its capacity depends solely upon the capacity and endurance of man to follow in their downward course the mneralized seams intersectine the earths crust. It the, placers of California 1has hrst made that state famous but placer mining there has degensrated into minor industry. and quartz mining fer gold and silver, copper, lead. quicksilver and other servccabe minerals has taken aleading position, giving practical perpetuty to the business.
 The same is true of Australia once noted for it's placer mines and of British Columbia, where have been discovered in recent years nexhaustible veins of smeting ores in different districts of the province n fact the future of all tho western states and terri tories, as productive mining felds depends like that of Alaska, on their quartz mineralized rock de- ppsits. Alaska contains of the richest placers ever discovered and the productive ld-bearng area here is undoubtedly extensive than in any gold producing country yet explored But we believe that

We used to think that judges, especially United States judges, were great and mighty men. But years dspel many fond illusions, and we are prone to confess that all made of clay. Recently Judge William K. Townsend, of tho United States district court at New Haven, Conn.,, who delivered the orginal decision in the Porto Rican cases, made the erroneous statement at bar association dinner in New Haven that the "the Civil war stamped out the heresy that the constitution followed the flag" The learned judge ought to have known better; he prob ably does for if the Civil settled anything it was to reaffrm the doctrine that the constitution fol- lowed the flag.

THE ATTEMPT UPON McklNlEY'Ss LIFE.

! Three times in the history of the United States have its presidents been stricken down by asSassins The first Abraham Lincoln, April l5, 1865 the second was James A. Garfield, shot by Charles J. Guieau, July ,, 1881. The third the assassins' list is William Mckinley, shot down in Buffalo x. T, On Sept 6'ofthe present year.
 t Whether President Mckinley be living or, not we do not know. We hope and trust that he has been spared to nation which he loves and to a people Sho love, admire and respect him, both a man and as the chief executive of grea. nation. A plain man esrnestly devoted to- the interests of the coun- try, the hearts of great people have been deeply stirred and the prayers o nation have gone heaven ward that life unsefsh and devoted to the in terests of his country might be spared.
 In the blow that fell suddenly the bitterness of partisan strife and partisan prciudces have been forgotten and united people stand upon that broad and common ground where the rich and poor may pneet together, equal terms, in expressions of heartfet at the calamity which has enveoped the nation and brought loved president within the valley of the shadow of death
 s Abraham Lincoln's death was the outgrowth of the bitter strife engendered by bloody civil war his assassin being man whose mind was undoubtedly unhinged; James A. Garfield fell at the hand of a man who also of unsound mind but the attempt upon the life of President Mckinley seems to have been made by one who proud to declare that he was anarchist. And this, too in a great republic where universal suffrage prevails and the president is a man of the people. President Mckinley has been the victim of stupid crime, which to the shame O, humanity, is becoming more and more freouent Amid the outcasts of humanity are degenerates who >detest all authority who would destroy all govern ment, whose purposes murder, who believe that their mission is the killing of the principal officials of nations
 The'people known anarchists have already a longsand1notabe list of deaths in the past seven years. The list includes President Carnot of France King Humbert of Italy and the Empress of Austria besides attempts made the lives of other person. ages high in authority, which proved abortive.
 Whether the attempt to kill President Mckinley was aweH defined anarchist plot, and Leon Czolgosz ,the instrument selected to exercise it, has not vet been learned. It may have been At any rate it was wholly nexcusable, and it but emphasizes what
 has been many times said, that anarchists are lndif fsrent as to how the world regards their crime
 The doctrine that has been preached for years, that America is home for the free and oppressed of every nation," seems to De at fault Amid the trccst institutions the face of the earth environed bylaws that in the main just and equitable in a land Of plenty where the opportunities are not alone to the rich; the hideous head of anarchy is being raised openly and defantly. The propagandas of 1ae anarchists are bearing fruit.

its permanent future mining field must depend upon its minerazed rock veins. Long after the placers will have been worked out, these mineralized veins will be attracting capital and enterprise to the territory. Although it is known to contain some of the most massive goldbearing quartz deposits yet discovered anywhere, more is expected in the future from its base metal deposits and the coal measures which are dispersed through its mountains When these are fully developed the smoke of smeters will spread over the territory from ketchikan to Bering sea and the entire district will be great hive of homan industry. A change of this kind is taking place in the Pacific states and territories, for mining in them has fairly entered the permanent stage of development And so it will be of Alaska
 The success that has attended the NUGGET ever since its first issue has been most gratifying. That it is appreciated is attested by its constantly increas ing subscription list and the favor with which each succeeding issue is received. The proprietor of the NUGGET may be pardoned for thus publicly acknow- edging the appreciation of his efforts in giving the people of this section live, independent and pro- gressive newspaper It is by the loyal support of the people that he has been enabled to do this. The NUGGET endeavors to stand for the best interests of all the people. It is not expected that everyone will be either pleased with the paper its policy, but know, for the stated above that the great ma jority are. And that is all that is asked. The NUGGEr has much larger, bona tde, paid circula- ton than any other paper published in this section, and this has been achieved in less than three months. As advertising medium it is the best, it reaches the people. The wise advertiser is quick to note this fact the NUGGEr'~ advertising columns show. When person advertises he expects results, and this is what is promised the NUGGEr's patrons. AS a newspaper, it believes in Alaska for Aaskans in decent government honest and efficient admins traton of the laws of the land and in honest, faithful and competent officials to execute them. Along these lines it intends to pursue the course which it has hitherto consistently followed, censuring when necessary and commenting and supporting that and those whom it believes to be honest and efficient.
