 Of her marriage to Harry Thaw and
 Harry will fight the case as well as he
 can from behind the bars of Mattca-

 Now why the Thaw family should feel that way about it is not clear All the glory that has come to the family has been conferred by the fair Evelyn. Before she annexed them to her train with Harry as the con-
 meeting link the Thaws were no moro
 noted than any other idle millionaire
 family. Maybe they arc sore because Harry is now Il missing link, about

VALDEZ IS GROWING

Receipts of merchandise in Valdez in 1907 aggregated Sl,411 ,671, nearly double the total of 1906, which was nearly double the aggregate of 1905. The imports of 1907 were three and one-third times as great as the aggre- gate two years earlier, showing Il rapid as well as constant growth.
 Valdez ranked fourth last year among Alaska towns in value of mer- chandise received. Nome's total was but 70 per cent more than that of Valdez, and Fairbanks exceeded Val dcz only Is per cent. The bizarre ex- hibition of railroad buildings at Ka- talla put that place notch ahead of Valdez, but there is no present pros pect that it will duplicate the effort this year.
 All this growth in trade comes from the dcvelopm cnt of resources tributary to Valdez. The mcrchan- disc is consumed in the town, around Prince William sound, and in the mining camps of the interior this side of the range dividing the coast water shed from the Panama and Yukon. Scarcely any of it is to be credited to anything but mining development, and very little of it could be taken away from Valdez by any railroad from any other port,
 Valdez Is able to stand alone and build up on the resources scarce yet touched, most of them absolutely un- touched, of which nature has made this town the center, while money is burned on empirical railroad projects elsewhere, but some day capital will accept the opinion of the best cngi- nccrs that railroad from Valdez will reach greater mineral deposits at less cost and with less mileage than line from anybody's tOwnsitc.

SOME NEWS FOR VALDEZ

Walter r.. Clarke, Washington cor respondent of the Post-Intclligcnccr, reports to that paper that poll had been taken in Valdez to settle the post office contest. He does not give the source of his information but it must have been the hot air pipe be- cause nobody in Valdez ever heard of such poll and nobody here knows how it would have come out if one had been taken.
 Nevertheless the POst-Intcligcnccr gives the alleged news a place on the front page of Sunday paper. The learned correspondent further says that the result of the poll being adverse to Delegate Gales candidate the delegate was willing to quit and let the other man have the lob. Strange to say the president went ahead and appointed Gales man any way.
 If any one in Valdez ever heard of this mysterious poll he will confer q favor on the Propcctor by informing it who was invited to vote and who did vote. This paper confcsscs an inglorious scoop but as a matter of history would like to print the facts which seem to have escaped from this town when nobody was looking.
 The P.-I. of February 27 on it's Alaska page has local account and one under a Valdez date line each telling Of poll on postmaster. The latter merely tells of the petitions which had been circulated.

TEXT OF LAW FOR
 PROOF OF LABOR

As.some uncertainty exists regard ing the provisions of the law enacted by the last congress to govern the filing of sworn proof of the annual labor upon mining claims the text of the act is given here.
 '"That during each year and nntil patent has been issued therefor, or at least one hun dred dollars worth of labor shall be performed or improvements made on, or for the benefit or development of, |, in accordance with existing law, each mining claim in the district of Alaska heretofore or hereinafter located. And the locator or owner of such or some other person having know ledge of the facts may also make and file with the said recorder of the dis trict in which the claims shall be sit uate an affidavit showing the per formancc of labor or making of inn provemcnts to the amount of one hundred dollars as aforesaid and spe. cifying the character and extent of
 
 forth the following: First, the name or number of days work done and the character and value of the improve mcnts placed thereon; third, the date of thesperformance of such labor nnd of making improvements; fourth, at whose instance the work was done or the improvements made; fifth the actual amount paid for work and Improvement, and by whom paid when the same was not done by the owner. Such affidavit shall be prima facic evidence of the perform ancc of such work or making of such improvements, but if such aflidaVits be not filed within the time fixed by this Act the burden of proof shall be upon the claimant to establish the performance of such annual work and improvements. And upon failure of the locator or owner of any such claim to comply with the provisions of this Act, as to performance of work and Improvements, such claim shall become forfeited and open to location by others as if no location of the same had ever been made. The aftidavits required hereby may be made before any officer authorized t0 administer oaths, and sthe pro- visions of sections tifty-three hun drCd and nincty-two and tifty-three hundred and nincty-three of the Revised Statutes are hereby extended to such atlidavits.

THAT LABOR AFFIDAVIT

The Prospector prints today the act of the last congress providing for filing sworn proof of the performance of annual labor upon mining claims. The subject is one of considerable importance just now because the law performed must be filed within nine ty days after the close of the year in which such work is performed, and if the construction which some attor- neys place upon the law is correct the subject is one of vital importance to the owners of many thousands of valuable claims.
 Some lawyers hold that the law forfeits and lays open to relocation all claims for which aiiidavits of assessment work are not filed. If this is true existing claims can be saved to their owners only by filing the prescribed affidavit not later than March 30.
 This construction of the law, how ever is not accepted by other lawyers who hold that the law merely cstab- fishes method of pcrpctuating.prima facic evidence of annual labor. The sonablc deduction from the language used, which is as follows:
 "Such affidavit shall be prima facic evidence of the performance of such work or making of such improve ments, but if such aiiidayits be not filed within the time fixed by this act the burden of proof shall be upon the claimant to establish th" performance of such annual work and improve ments. And upon failure of the lOca- tor or owner of any such claim to comply with the provisions of this act, AS TO PERFORMANCES OF WORK AND IMPROVEMENTS, such claim shall br forfeited and open to locatiOn.n
 IL will be noticed thai the law in specifying failure tu comply with it's provisions proceeds to rcritc "as to performance of york; bat dD"s not itNlt' ldIlllIt lo lIIt' lllt' illiCI;-N .t tlS i fatal omission. In the beginning of the act it rccitcs that a locator "mayn file an affidavit as thcrCinaftcr Sppci- fled. It is true that the word "mayn IS sometimes construed ''mlSt' by an accepted rule of construction, but this is not q case of the class which falls within the rule.
 And if failure to file the affidavit foricits the claim why the clause upon the claimant the burden of proof of performance of labor? If his claim is lost wherein lies the utili- ty of any proof whatever?
 The only percmptory language in the act referring to the filing of the affidavit is near the end, where refer encc is made to "thc aiiidavits re- quircd hereby"
 Certainly it seems like forced construction of language after weigh ing all the clauses of the act together to say that the affidavit must he filed to save a claim. But it costs only $l.5O to file the affidavit, and it is worth that much as "prima facic proof' of the performance of annual labor. In some cases it might be worth great deal more.
