STRONG OPPOSITION TO
 RAILROAD AID.
The Principle of Substituting Corporate Institutions Not
 We'll Liked.

Regarding the proposition to grant congressional aid to Alaska railroad enterprises, the Seattle Times correspondent at Washing ton short time ago said:
 The proposition to subsidize Alaska railroads, for which bills have been introduced ill congress, will meet with vigorous opposition in both branches. Even the mem bers of the Washington delegation, who are nearest to the territory entrusted with legislation for it's benefit ill way, are not enthusias- tic on the subject.
 Representative Cushman stated his position in rather an equivocal way. Without declaring himself as for or against subsidies, he said if there ever was a proposition to grant a subsidy which was merito. rious it was that of the Alaskan roads.
 MT. Jones said: II am not an advocate of subsidies as general tmng, but do not care to say at this time whether or not 1 will support the Alaskan railroad subsidy bill."
 MT. Humphrey sai1 he had not considered the question at all.

Alaska Club and Arctic Brother hood Make Systematic
 EndeayOr.
Correspondence.
SEATTLE. Dec. 30, 1904,

SEATTLE. Dec. 30, 1904.
 The Alaska Club has been acting Co-jointlv with the ACrtlC Brother hood in endeavoring to secure tor Alaska delegate ill Congress. The club passed resolution similar to the one adopted at the late session in Seattle of the Arctic Brother hood. Copies of these two resolu- tions were then sent to about thousand business men i'll Seattle with request that letters be writ ten to members of congress other than those from tie State of Wash ington, asking as a personal favor that a delegate be given Alaska. Hon. K. A. Ballinger, mayor of Seattle, has been especially active, and has received favorable replies from the following members of con gress:
 Ernest r. Acheson D. $. Alexander John II. Bankhead Roswell P. Bishop Frank E. Brandegee Theodore :. Burton lanes H. Davidson Blackburn B. Dove Michael E. Driscoll ner
 John F. Lacey Geo r. Lawrence John Lind Jos. F.. RanSden Geo. w. Southwick Alfred B. Kittridge Alfred J. Hopkins Shelby M. Cullum r. [. McCumber Henry C.. Hansbrough
 The replies were all very friendly to the proposed measure. The fol lnwing reply from Hon. T. E. Burton, of Ohio, chairman of the committee on rivers and harbors, is a sample of the entire list:
 Washington, D. C., Dec. IA, Ieol. Dear Sir: Your letter of the sth, enclosing circular letters of the Alaska Club and tLe Arctic Brother hood, urging legislation on behalf of Alaska, at hand. shall be glad to vote for any bill which pro vides for a delegate. and also. il l eau see my way clear to do SO, for any other legislation required iot the development of Alaska.

It las been noticed that several Alaska papers have stated that Col. w. T. Peri ins, of Nome, was backed by the Alaska Club in his candidacy for the appointment as governor of Alaska. This report is misleading. The Perkins Club was formed by the colonels friends i'll the rooms of the Alaska Club, but the Alaska Club, as a club, took no part ill the meeting for the very simple reason, as stated at the meeting by the colonel himself, that under it's bylaws the club could not endorse any man for any office whatsoever. The club can only endorse measures, not men, and 1t will endorse measures only when all the people of Alaska get together and decide on that measure as their joint wishes.
 Among the Alaskans who will be i'll Washington City this winter, or who are already there. may be mentioned the following: B. T. Willard, of Valdez; R. S. Ryan. of Nome; John F. Ballaine, of the Alaska Central railway, of Seward and Seattle.
 Frank J. Cleary, of Fairbanks, after whom the famous Cleary creek was named, spent several weeks III this city. this being the first time in four years he has been outside. He left for the interior via Valdez, and expected 10 get his Christmas dinner with Judge Wickersham.

The sum of $4,000 is to be used in a
more thorough development of the
properties, and it is thought by those
interested that this will put the mine
on a paying basis.
In the northern part of Arizona in
the Jerome and Verde mining districts
a prosperous period is promised, as
mines are being opened with renewed
energy. The leading copper property
is the United Verde owned by U. S.
Senator w. A. Clark and around this
property interest is centered.
Present Indications throughout the
Jerome and Verde mining districts
point to a season of greater activity
than has been known for many years
past.
The working force of the United
Verde mine is being increased, and the
production during 1905 bids fair to sur
pass any previous output. The recent
explosion in the mine delayed opera
tions for a few days. but the burning
portion of the mine is again under

mining operations has stimulated

Complaints are coming from nearly
every mining camp of prominence in the
state that miners are at a premium Park
City, Tlntic, Bingham. Stockton, New
mouse and other camps are supplying SO
many men who have determined to try
their luck in the reservation, either for
mineral or agricultural lands. that it is
next to impossible to keep the ranks full.
AT Park City, Manager c. l. Rood of the
ontario and DAILY, says there has been
quite an exodus and to pick up good min
ers is no easy task Men were wanted at
some OF the properties under his manage
ment day or two ago and it was inn
possible 10 get them, while nearly all of
the mines were running short-handed.
twenty-five men were wanted at the
cactus on Friday to take the places OF
those who had either quit orr secured
leave of absence, but ten was all that
could be supplied from this end
Similar conditions are reported from the
other camps and the expectation is that
there viii be little change in the situation
uhuI storms drive the men out of the
mountains in the reservation country. IN
the meantime, all of the mining cOmpan-
les are following or trying 20 follow the
usual custom of making the fan months

drawing TO a finish, harvesting will soon
be over and teams will be easier to get
Roads viii be in fine condition and the

from appearances, they will not be forth

For twenty years or more the hidden
riches that are supposed TO exist in the
mountains of the Uintah reservation
country have been described by the adj

Spanish mines have been reported found
and many exhibits of gold nuggets
claimed to have been secured from the
Indians who fought off the trespassers
and hundreds of kindred incidents have
been retailed to the press of the state
and country, until the belief has become
widespread that all that any one would
need to do to become wealthy would be
to secure a claim in the reservations
1abulously rich mineral ranges.
AT any rate, the fever is on and hun
dredS, possibly thousands of men are right

is very probable and that miners in the
