SULZER THINKS ALASKA
 SHOULD GOVERN ITSELF

After returning from long trip through Alaska, Congressman Sulzer asid in Seattle recently:
 Congress is too big body to act as a board of aldermen for a country like Alaska, and the time has come when that country should have the priv iIege ofselecting its own governing off, fcers and passing it's own local laws"
 "Ninety-nine per cent of the citizens of Alaska want home rule and territo- ria, government. Their demand is a just request and based upon patriotism. l feel confident that Congress will ac- cede to the request. Alaska is one of the most valuable assets in Uncle Sam's domain, and nothing will bring about it's development so quickly as local self-government. To refuse Alaska home rule would be a denial of citizenship contrary to the spirit of our institutions, and undemocratic, unrepublican and un-American."

ANOTHER GREAT
 LATOUCHE MINE
Regular Shipments Now Going Out From GirdwOOd and
 BarraCk Property.

The Latouche Copper Mining Com pany now has a steady output of cop per ore, which it is shipping from Barracks dock on Northwestern boats.
 The president of the company, James Girdwood, passed through Seward to- day the Bertha on his way to La touche from Turnagain arm, where he went month ago to close up work for the season on his hydraulic placer mine at tbe headof Crow creek. Prior to that Mir. Girdwood had spent most of the summer at Latouche directing operations on the copper mine.
 Mr.. Girdwood says the situation on 1 his property at Latouche is eminently satisfactory, what was considered two years ago to be a fair prospect having assumed the proportions of mine. Tunnels and drifts have exposed a big deposit of copper ore of good value.
 During the summer a doubIe-deck dock was constructed with bunkers of l 700 tons capacity ard a gravity tram runs from the mine to the bunkers.
 "A record for quick development work has been made on this property" said Ar. Girdwood. "In less than eighteen working months the prop erty has been placed on a permanent shipping basis. This work included driving 1900 feet of tunnel, drift and upraise. The company is a close cor. poration, never having had any stock for sale. It is strictly private en- terprise which promises to yield a handsome return for the investment" "
 NIr. Girdwood reports that hydraulic operations on Crow creek gave good 1 returns this year.
