NOTES FROM THE CAPITAL
Des Moines, May 9 1902.

DeS MONIES, May lSV@.
Constant inquiries received in the
office OF the secrtary of the executive
council show there is much misappre-
tension among the county auditors
at to the laws that were enacted by
the last genera assembly. In some
cases the auditors seem to be aDso-
lutely at sea on this question. In or
der to stop inquiries and AFFORD IN
formation to auditors, Mr.. Dawson has
prepared circular which will soon
be distributed. 1t contains copy or
the measure extending to July the
time of making the railroad assess
ment. and also the measure to make
the road tax laws conform to this ex-
tension. Facts are given as to the
Anderson road law. which many audi
tors wrongly think has already gone
into effect. The circular suggests the
propriety of the auditors making the
township officers acquainted with the
changed conditions. The measure
making the road tax law conform to
the extension of the time of making
the railroad assessment provides that
at the April meeting the township
trustees shall determine the rate to be
levied for road purposes. Formerly
the law required the amount to be
levied to be fixed The law required
that three-fourths of the road taxes
shall be collected by July Is. This
is changed in the new law SO as to
require that three-fourths of the taxes
locally assessed shall be collected by
that time.

President Marden of The Western

ing Company, SO Ames Building,
Boston, is very much pleased to
announce to the shareholders and
to the public the fact that a public
smelter is to be erected at Grand
Junction, Colo, only a few miles
from their property. This smelt>
ing company has been IN
prospect some few months
and is at this time an
assured TACT, as they will commence
building 400 ton smelling plant
on the first of May. forty acres of
land having been secured, and
plans having been made ready to
start the enterprise. This means a
saving of 500 a car for The West>

Smelling Company in handling its
high grade ore and matte. With
their matte smelter erected on their
property, and the public smelter
few miles away the Western
Slope will have great advantage
in handling the ores cheaply, and
creating a large income for the
stockholders.
President Marden also says: 81

ALASKA.

Alaska embraces about 100000
square miles and stretches through
nearly 80 degrees Of latitude and
50 degrees of longitude. Praotical>
ly no detailed Investigations of any
part Of this vast territory have been
made and at least a third part Of
its area has not even received pre-
liminary topographic and geologic
surveys. Our knowledge Of its
mineral resources is therefore very
incomplete. What is known Of its
coal resources has been compiled
and is presented by Mr., Alfred H.
Brooks in part third of the 23d
annual report OF the United States
Geological Survey, now in press.
This complication is not from
printed sources alone, but is largely
from manuscript notes made on
the spot by Mr.. Brooks himself
and by others.
Mr.. Brooks divides Alaska, for
purposes of his report, of fol>
lows: Beginning on the south,
southeastern Alaska includes the
Pacific ocean coastal belt and is
lands, extending northward to Mt
St. Elias and northwestward so as
to include the Copper River basin.
Beginning on the west, southwest
ern Alaska embraces the Aleutian
islands, Alaska peninsula and adja>
cent islands, Renal peninsula and
the Cook Inlet region, with the
drainage basins of its tributary
rivers. The Kuskokwin region
lies west Of Bristol bay and Cooks
Inlet and east and south of the
Yukon, and drains into southeast
ern Behring sea, chiefly through
the Kuskokwin river. The eastern
part OF this region is broken by the
Alaskan range OF mountains. To
the west OF these mountains is the
broad basin of the Kuskokwin
river. A small southern part of
this region drains directly into Be-
hiring sea by a number of short
rivers.
The Yukon basin includes a
great area lying partly in Alaska
and partly in British Northwest
Territory and British Columbia.
The chief tributaries of the Yukon
are Kayukuk, Tanana, Porcupine,
White, Pelly and Lewes rivers, the
last two uniting to form the Yukon
proper, and their drainage basins
are wholly within Canadian terri
tory. The larger part Of the basin
is occupied by the great Yukon
plateau sloping from about 5000
feet near the head waters above sea
level to 2,5oo feet at the great bend
Of the river. Eeas of this plateau
lies the northern extension of the
Rocky mountains, which, near the
Arctic coast, turns abruptly west
parallel to the coast, forming the
Romanzof, Davidson and DeLong
mountains, the Arctic>Yukon
watershed.
On the southwest side OF the
Rukon basin the Coast range and
the St. Elias range and the Alaskan
ranges form the barrier and in
part the watershed of the basin.

Smells of Cities.

Sir Philip Burne-Jones insists that
each city has it's own peculiar odor
that a stranger can smell city. THE
great blended odor of the entire CITY,"
There is truth in his remarks. When
a stranger enters Munich there is a
smell as of many breweries-a pecul-
iar,. sweetish, yet pungent odor of
malt, not at all unpleasant to a beer
drinker. After a day or two the smell
is not remarked, but after the stran-
ger leaves the city the smell is dis
tinct in his memory; it eXerts a spell;
it urges him to drop his work, to take
the next steamship. We have not been
in Munich for seventeen years, but
that sweet smell haunts us still. Paris
has a peculiarly individual odor; so
has London, so has Berlin, so has
Dresden. Boston, no doubt, has its
own smell, which is highly respecta-
BILE, rather musty, with suspicion of
old family cockroaches.
