Congress will not pass the Gale bill providing for the sale of Alaska coal lands upon an intelligent basis, says the Alaska PrespectoF. We'll, anybody who supposed congress would pass the bill without a ten-year campaign of education might easily be inducted to buy stock in a corporation organized to buy the moon for its green cheese value. What congress doesn't know about Alaska if put in writing would make the congressional library look like loose leaf ledger.

Many Douglas people will remember Frank Burns, who lived here for a number of years, and who is now in charge of the mine of the Arkansas & Arizona Copper Co.,, at Jerome, Ari- zona, and those who do will be inter ssted in the following from a recent number of the Arizona Journal-Miner. h the course of a somewhat lengthy article, descriptive Of the mine above mentioned, that paper says: Remark able progress has been made in the last half year just passed. The shaft has been sunk as far as S7 feet in one month with two shifts, and the miners have been rewarded bonus of Sl.00 each foot over 30 feet sunk in month of 30 days. Whether this bonus is an incentive or not makes little difference for the company have and are receiv
 ing the benefit through rapid sinking
 The shaft from the top to the bottom Is most substantially constructed and is as true as vertical shaft can be built. This is largely to the credit ot Mr. Frank Burns who has had the supervision of the work. MT. Burns is an expert in the line of shaft con- struction in all its branches, having had over eighteen years experience"
