SAW NJ SIGNS IF HARD TIMES IN NORTHWEST
Douglas Mining Engineer Is Back From the East With Optimistic Report of the Industrial Conditions.

DOUGLAS, Oct Especial. )-
 Arthur Houle, the welEknown min ing engineer of the firm of Houle & Houlton, after two months spent in the northern copper country, princi- pally in the interest of the Anderson Apache Mining company, of which he is consulting engineer, has returned to Douglas. Regarding the object or his visit and the results he accom- plished, MT Houle made the statement this morning that Michigan interests have become identified with the An derson-Apache company and that ar engagements have been made whereby, if financial assistance at any times becomes necessary in meeting the ob- legations of the comTany, it will be forthcoming.
 In connection with the success of MT. HOule's nilsson it was stated at the office of the company that Ander- son-Apache is now practically on 'easy street" using the vernacurar. All payments can be met without embar- rassment to the company m carrying out the line of work planned for the mine. This calls for development work as well as production and both
 vii from now on be pushed with in creased vigor.
 We are now in position to go ahead with work we have been plan ming with the assurance that we will in no wise be handicapped by lack of funds" said MT. Houle this morn ing. For the present we will com plete the raise from the 300 to the $50 level This will be finished within three or four days. After that we can
 ship one carload of ore daily and l estimate that the company will then be claering $10,000 a month. At the same time, while getting out the ore
 from the bodies already proved, we
 will start sinking another one hundred , feet: and the development work at present under way in different parts of the mine will be prosecuted more vigorously
 MT. Houle will go out to the proper. ty Saturday to inspect the work done and to consult with his associate, l.. K. Houlton, who is experimenting the work. Mir Houle is very enthusiastic l over the future of the property. Regarding general industrial con ditions in the sections he visited, Mir. Houle says he saw no evidences of hard times
 Hard times is a misnomer when | applied to the northern mining coun. try" he said. Men are at work
 everywhere and all through Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin I could see
 nothing but evidences of prosperity. The companies are not adding to their forces materially but practically all l the labor there is employed and
 wages are good. Boston capital con, tinues to flow into the lake country The eastern investors are best ac
 quainted with that sort of mining and will invest a million dollars there to 1 s10,000 in the southwest. Many taii
 ures have been recorded but the sue l cess attained, in the opinion of the | investors, justifies them in continu ing to put money into the lake coun try"

POLITICS TAKE

Indications That Little May Be Expected In the Way of Im-

(By Frank J. Graf.)

The uncertainty of the political sit uation still has depressing influence on the New York as well as the Bos- ton market. Traders as well as busi ness in general was dull and prices varied somewhat. We have nothing more than Wait on Politics Mar ket.' The Copper share market is at a standstill, there is nothing doing and stocks that are being bought up are by those that are buying stocks for in- vestment and are intended for long purchases. Although trading is light, there has been enough buying to hold up the market very well. In the curb market there is some quiet buying in Black Mountain, Globe, DenE and Shat tuck, also Superior and Greene Can anea. These stocks are being bought up in small lots. Globe Consolidated is being bought for investment pur- poses and from reports of the prop erty. ot looks as though it has passed the prospect age and will soon be one of Globes foremost mines. It will be- come a second Miami. Denn and Shat tuck are in good support at present prices. Superior changed hands at S1325, while Greene Cananea shows signs of worth the greater part of the dSy

HORROR OF BURIAL
 AL|VE KILLS MINER
RESCUED AFTER P HOURS IM- PRIsoNMENT IN coLLiERY
 HE DIES OF SHOCK.
FIRST TELLS STORY OF ESCAPE
Exubsrant with Gratitude to Comrades for His Release, He Soon Sue cumbs to Physical Strain, and
 Death Ends Ills Suffering.

Freeland, Pa.-fmprieoned for 2a hours in the angle formed by large rock with the rib of the gangway in 0skdale colliery Jeddo, and covered by hundreds of tons of coal and earth. Michael Clebon, the imprisoned tim herman, was released at noon and brought to the surface In apparently good shape, though manifestly suffer ing internally. After telling his won- derfu; story he died at seven o'clock in the evening.
 Clsbon, who had been one of the last men in the disturbed section of the mine to abandon his post of duty and rush for a place of safety, was caught and imprisoned at the edge of the fall. He was wedged in a space about eight inches high at the base of 6 steep incline.
 Owing to the unsettled condition of the roof and the mass of material rush ing down the pitch, the rescuing party was compelled to tunnel through tho loose mass and forepole the roof and sides.
 After ten hours hard work the i'm prisoned mans head was reached. Fresh air and nourishment revived his exhausted strength, and he bore up bravely, encouraging his rescuers un- til finally released 12 hours later.
 Medical attendance was given him as soon as he was taken to the gang way He talked freely with his res cuers and profusely thanked all. The physicians. practiced in attending for eign workmen at the mines, are al ways apprehensive of shock following an accident and not infrequently find fatal results; so that every precsu- tion was taken to save CIebon.
 In being taken out to the mouth of the pit he spoke to his attendants and

 Ore shipments continue from the Great Eastern mine. The stoDe looks as well as ever, and the grade of the ore is holding up well-a recent assay of ore from the roof of the stope show ing g per cent copper and five ounces of silver.
 Drifting on the S00-foot level of the Arizona-Colorado mine has been tenn poTarily suspended and the driving of the crosscut south resumed. Superin- tendent S. c. Phillips is of the opinion that the thirty-foot vein already cut is not the main ledge; that, he ex- poets, will be encountered by the crosscut about 100 feet farther south The crosscut is now about 225 feet in length For khe last fifty fleet or more the breast of the tunnel has carried a small seam of tale vita a little copper adherfng to it, which appears to be getting larger and, may, not unlikely, lead to a lense of ore.
 The assay returns have been re- ceived from sample of ledge matter taken from the side of the drifts, and not expected to give high values. The assay sheet shows the sample to con tain: Gold, 4-100 of an ounce; silver 3.9 ounces: copper, 4.24 per cent; in soIuabIe, 37 per cent; iron (sol), 32.s per cent, and sulphur, 15.6 per cent which is excellent, when it is consid cred that none of the best ore was in cluded in the sample.

gave no indication that he was in- ternAliy injured, and the physicians then found no evidence of such in- juries, but were well satisfied with his condition. En route out he said:
 After I felt that I had escaped death, and that the worst of the fall had passed, began to think about get ting out alive. I could not move my body, but managed to get one hand free, and by feeling could understand how escaped being crushed to death.
 After the noise of the falling and crunching of coal had stopped began to listen for some sound which would tell me the fate of some of my com. rades. My own shouts seemed to come back against me from the wall of solid rock, which pressed hard against my sides.
 After what appeared to me to be q day at last I heard the rapping from the reseuing party.
 Tt was only a short time after this that the sound of voices reached my ears, and I was then able to tell the men how to reach me. The work Of rescue was risky, I knew; but, all though I was badly cTsmped up, did not hurry the men.
 Tt was a pretty tight fix to be in, but am out, thank Godl am more than glad that none of my comrades got caught and none of the rescuers were hurt during the work of reaching me.
 'Yes, I will go back at the job as soon as I get my legs strengthened out I thank God from the bottom ot my heart for getting me out alive.-
 When Cleoon reached home he was able to greet his wife and two httle children, and he appeared in good spirits Dr. Smith insisted on the usan being put to bed and absoluts quiet being maintained Notwithstand ing the precautions thus taken the physicians apprehension soon began to be verified. At five o'clock Dr Smith was again summoned and found the patient suffering from shock. Two hours later Clebon died.
 pr. Smith later stated that shock superinduced by the terrible nervous strain during the hours he was i'm i prisoned, was the cause of death, al he was uninjured physically.

 NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-Extrene dull ness again characterized the trading in the list today. but prices were hrm and news was not of a character to in duce commitments either way. An irregular London market induced some selling at the opening but offerings were well absorbed and the list lapsed into dullness. Political news is or somewhat caImer character, but tne attitude on the part of traders is waiting one until something happens to create activity.

Not Quite Right

The Whitehorse Star of the 10th inst. says: "Editor Hopp, of the Douglas Island News, is sloughing his Slav- onians off on Yukon and advertising for ministers for his own town"
 The Star is just little bit mistaken. We are just as particular as to the the qualities of the preachers in this town as we are with the Slavonians. But the Slavonians are alone respon- sible for the "sloughing." They came many of them, right from their native land to Douglas Island. They were entirely ignorant of mine work, but were given positions in the mines at S30O day-such wages as they neYeN dreamed of getting in their own country. They allowed their false leaders-paid salary for so doing to lead them into a union, Of which they knew nothing, and it was their votes that precipitated strike, un. reasonable in it's demands and impoa- sible of accomplishment
 There are thousands of American workmen, all over the United States today, who will be and are glad to take the jobs that these Slavonians re- fused, at the command of the Douglas branch of the Western Federation of Miners. As for these striking SlaT- onians when they now ask for their jobs they find that they are not want ed. and SO the "sloughing" to the Yukon is a natural process. As for the leaders who got them into trouble, they are still drawing their salaries, but for the rank and file there is noth- ing left for them on Douglas Island but a scant existence on two meals a day at the federation soup house. So they are going on every boat, to the north and to the south, in the hope that they may again find job as good as the one they scorned at Treadwsll. Meanwhile the Boss Tarkelsons who led them into this slough of Despond, wax fat, wear rings on their fingers and eat of the fatted calf three times a day. No, the Slavonians have no one to blame but themselves for their sloughing.

Ossfied Man On Diomede

While cutting ice from which to get water, Akasaruk, native of the Little Diomedes, recently made find which promises to be of untold value. Inside a cavern over the mouth of which he accidentally rolled stone in bis act of getting ice, was found the body of a human being completely and perfectly metamorphosed into stone.
 The nationality of the man is doubt less Japanese, though from his phy- sical features he might easily bo mis- taken for an Eskimo. That he is Jap anese was proven almost couclusively when the government teacher on the island. who was immediately sum- moned to the scene of the discovery found,a parchment containing Japan ese writing. The preservation of the parchment and the characters thereon is certainly remarkable, the writing be- ing easily deciphered.
 The teacher, whose name, by request, is withheld for the present, by using advertisements and directions for med iciues written in the Japanese, has translated the parchment and found it to be a diary.
 This diary contains the account of tue departure of large number of people from Nippon, which is the old uame for Japan. After telling of the trials and yiccissitudes of a long ocean trip, record is-made of a landing on what is probably the shore of Kot- zebue Sound. Further record is made of start on a return trip to Nippon by three men, ostensibly to bring more colonists. Here the account stops, and it is probable the man fell into this cave when the company was camped on the island. It may be that the boat was wrecked and this man stranded on the island alone.
 There is little doubt now, in the face of this discovery, that the Eskimos are descended from an oriental race. The contention that these people originated in this frozen cline, scarcely ever tenable, will surely fall before this re- markable revelation.--Nome Nugget.

The Alaskan Way

The theory that those who live in cold climates are a phlegmatic, frost, bitten folk, will not hold good in view ofthe intense energy shown by some of the people who inhabit this jolly part of the Northland known as Southeast ern Alaska. An additional refutation of the charge is found in the active in- terest displayed at election time.
 Alaskans are not privileged to take part or have a voice in the choice of president, and on only one occasion have they elected delegate to con- gress. However, in the incorporated towns, each year a council of seven member is elected and also one mem- Der of the local school board. But 1t is these annual contests. these teapot tempests that excite the Alaskan to his best efforts and causes him to to show the metal be is made of. And it is really matter of wonderment, at times, how we'll the untried Alaskan voter uses his perceptiye faculty in the preparation of his ballot.
 The most notable thing, however, at election time is the enthusiasm display ed. Who ever heard of parading the street with brass bands and banners in support of the candidacy of an asPir- ant for position on the school board?
 Yet that is exactly what was done during the recent campaign" in Ju. neau. And when the fight was fought and the victory won-what a celeora- tion there was! It was then that men gave themselves up to hilarious happi- ness such as nations will sometimes upon receipt of the news that their armies have been victorious in battle. Staid business men and bankers, whose feet travel in the paths of rectitude and right from force of habit, joined i'll the throng, and were foremost in issu- ing the invitation, "come up bOysi and have something"
 The general rule in these Alaska con- tests is to fight to the last ditch on election,day, but the best of friends all the rest of the year. There are ex- captions, however, to this rule. But it is the vim and vigor of the contest that prevents successful candidates from becoming careless of their duties. It is pretty safeguard.
 The thought strikes us, if Alaskans become so enthusiastic over contest of such minor importance, what a glorious old time there would be fl they were allowed to participate in the struggle between NTaft and Billy Bryan.

Douglas Island news., 1908-04-15

The man who lives throughout tbe years of long life without family ties or association, 'alone in his cabin" presents sad phase of human life, the conditions of which are not made more sorrowful when in the fullness of time he dies as he has liyed-alone. There is, it is true, something shock ing in the close of such life by acci- dent, as was the case with a pioneer of Coos County who recently met his death in the smoke and flames of his cabin; or by violence, as is not infre- quently the case where the recluse was 8 miser. But generally speaking, a human being who lives from youth to hoary age entirely for himself leaves no ripple on the sea of life when he sinks, alone, beneath the surface. The pity is not for bis lonely death, but for his lonely, fruitless life.-Portland Ore gonian.
