Su1zer Opposes Gale Bill

Washington, March g. Congress- man SulZor of New York announces his intention to fight Delegate Gales bill for territorial government in Alaska introduced in the house Feb ruary 20. Sulzcr's objection to the bill iS it's failure to provide for d com plctc territorial government such as is granted to all organized territories.
 Specifically Sulzcr points out as weaknesses iii the proposed form of government: first, that it dcprives the people of the privilege of clccting members of the upper house of the legislature, providing that the council be composed of appointivo officials; second, tliat it does not provide for d sufficiently large number of members in the lower house and that it so ap- portions them that most of the mem bcrs will be elected from the large towns of the territory; third, the provision that members of the house must be owners of taxable property, thus dcpriving miners and prospectors to election.

TOOK NO PART IN POST OFFICE FIGHT Lieut.. Orchard Denies That Road Commission 0p-
 posed Jefferson.
NOT MEDDLING IN POLITICS
Somebody in Washington Invented Story Which Was Wired to
 Alaska Newspapers.

Lieut.. Orchard of the Masks road commission cabled today from Skag- way to Sam Blum of Valdez denial of the telegraph story published in the Daily Prospector January 2S that the withdrawal of tho nomination of J. ID. Jefferson to be postmaster at Valdez was due to the opposition of the Alaska road commission.
 The story came from Washington and as soon as he saw it in print Mr. Jefferson expressed doubt of it's ac- curacy, saying that he had never had the slightest difference with any member of the road commission.
 The message from Lieut.. Orchard was handed to the Prospector this morning by A. l.. Levy, who re- ceivcd it in the absence of Mir. Blum. It reads as follows
 'I notice in the Valdez paper the statement that the road commission was the cause of the withdrawal of the name of Jefferson for appoint ment as postmaster at Valdez. Please publish in the paper q positive denial of this statement as neither Major Richardson>nOr myself know this man

PLANS FOX FARM
 AT COPPER CENTER
Superintendent Heideman to Cultivate Black Ones
 by Breeding.

A black fox farm, owned and opera ted by the government, is project which C. w. H. Heideman, superin- tendcnt of the agricultural experiment station at Copper Center, intends to add to the productive industries of that paternal ranch. The government has plenty.of land in Alaska for sev- eral kinds of experiments without pinching space on miners and home steaders, and MT. Heidman figures that if black foxes can be generated successfully instead of being inst al = lowed to happen a new and exceed ingly profitable industry will be added to Alaska's wealth.
 Black foXskins are the rarest and most valuable of furs. The finest fur seal skin is worth about 23 cents on the dollar with black fox as the stan dard of value. Mir. Heideman has no fear that fox farm would break the pack of the market for long time.
 Black Foxes Freaks.
 Black foxes are believed to be q freak in nature, like black sheep. white blackbirds and red-haired ne grocs. Still Mir. Heideman thinks the freaks can be multiplied by careful sc- lection and breeding, just as Luther Burbank has produced green roses and other impossibilities in nature. He believes the black fox belongs to the silver gray tribe and in that opinion is upheld by other authorities.
 Fifteen miles from Copper Center stands Mount Drum, quiet hilltop in spite of it's name, where foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests. In the foothills of this rustic resort silver gray foxes are more numerous than anywhere else in Alaska and the tribe is always more or less dotted with black skins. This induces Mir. Heidcman to believe that the region is natural habitat of silver gravs, and he is even hopeful that some thug in the scenery or air currents has tendency to make gray hairs grow atramental. Hence the project to make it the domicile of silver foxes and the site of an effort to strcw more black hairs among the silver.
 Hopes For The Best.
 MT. Heideman's only fear is that partial domestication or too close as- sociation with depraved humanity

C0NCENTRATOR FOR DRYER BAY MINE
Knights Island Consolidated Company Plans to Build
 One This Year.

The Knights Island Consolidated Copper Company plans to build a concentrator at Drier bay, on the east shore of Knight island, where the company has extensive copper property in an advanced stage of de- velopment. The company expects to work large force of men in the mine and have a steady output. A shipment of no tons of ore was made last month to the Tacoma smelter for a test. Numerous assays have shown that the ore is of good grade.
 It is accepted by mining men inter- ested in Prince William sound copper that in order to secure the utmost profit possible from the output of the mines of this region the ores must be reduced by concentrator. Other wise nearly all the profit will go to the smelter trust, and many low grade mines cannot operate except at loss. A concentrator in the vicinity of the mines will mako possi- ble the working of every mining property on the sound which has an extensive deposit even though of low grade. For this reason several con- centrator projects are now being promoted.

STRIKE BREAKERS
 HAVE HARD TIME

John Bodine, one of thel strike breakers who started to the Panama last week, has returned with a story of misery on the trail. He says many of the men had their feet frozen. lost caps and shoes and had to take off their shirts and wrap them around their feet for protection, and wrap towels around their heads in lieu of caps. Bodine says many of the men wanted to come back but the herder held their baggage and they were compelled to go on or lose every thing except what they wore.
 Bodine claims also that the men were poorly fed and some of them threatened to come back on that ac- count but were not allowed to take their baggage. The weather was cold because of tho storm which be- gan blowing soon after they started from Valdez and several tents were blown away and lost on the summit.
 Before the army had been on the trail long men began stealing from each other, and Bodine predicts that some bad fighting may occur, as he says nearly all the men carry guns.
 One night harnessed mule went through tent which sheltered lot of men. A hook on the harness caught guy rope and the mule stam- peded down the trail with the tent. A stray mule was arrested at Ptarmi- gan Drop later, but the missing tent has not been located

Total Receipts of Merchant disc During 1907 Amount
 to S1,411,671.
SHOWS DECREASE
Falling Off Attributed by Collector to Heavy Purchases in loO6
 and Labor Troubles.

Valdez ranked fourth among the ports of Alaska in 1907 in value of merchandise received, and was the only large port besides Katalla which showed marked increase The total imports of Valdez were $1,411, ,871. In 1906 the total was SS63 ,392; in 1905 it was S435, 145; in 19Ot it was S371 ,957.
 Although Valdez nearly doubled it's imports last year it retained the same rank among Alaska ports as in the preceding year, due to the phe- nomcnal increase at Katalla caused by extensive railroad building there.
 The total of Alaska decreased from S52, l60, ,537 in 1906 to $48, ,425, ,33O in 1907. In 1905 the total was $39, ,159, TYP. The decrease in 1907 was due to the miners strikes in the Tanana and Seward peninsula districts and to ex- cessive imports in 1906, according to the report of Collector C. l.. Hobart of the Alaska customs district, from whose annual report all figures are taken.
 The decrease in Alaska trade was all in the Bcring sea and Yukon river districts. Southeastern Alaska show ed an increase of about $4OO, ,OOO, and Southern Alaska-from Yakutat to Dutch IlarbOr-incrcased from &, ,2O5,- 913, to $l, ,566,92 This increase was practically all in Valdez and Katalla, as there was net loss in all other places, only few of the smaller ones showing an increase, Seward and CordOva fcllsof heavily.
 Nearly every port in the Bering sea pistrict and the Yukon river district fell away. The total of Bering sea dropped from S6, 051, 1855 to $1, ,293, ,943 Yukon river ports decreased from $l,659,S1 to $3,564, ,591. Nome fell from $3,7I0,l l8S to $2,425, ,44O. Fair banks dropped from $2, 128, 1892 to $1,- 669, ,109; St. Michael from S1, ,67G, ,577 to $500, ,5l4. Nome and Fairbanks rank first and second, as they have for several years, but St. Michael fell back from third place to fifth.
 The shipments of Alaska products decreased from $31 ,254 ,460 in 1906 to $2S, ,4IO, ,552 in 1907. This loss was chiefly due to decrease of about S2,- 00O,0 in gold production, chargeable to the miners strikes.
