HYDRAULIC PROPOSITION.

Hydraulic mining is the most pro- missing method of exploitation for the Iunoko district, according to the report of mining men who are inyesti- gated the district this summer To carry out this scheme with the great est possible profit, three things are necessary-thorough prospecting of the gold-bearing ground under expert supervision, the bringing of water from a considerable distance, and the consolidation of all mining interests, This plan applies to Gaines, Little and Ophir creeks, near the headwat- CTS of the Innoko.
 There is ample water in Gaines creek for hydraulicktng, though on account of the grade the tailings would have to be disposed of by me chanicaI means. The two other streams would have to be prospected very carefully to determine whether there is enough pay gravel to justify the expense of bringing water from a distance. The consolidation of the claims would be no small task in it. self, for there are 1,2OO claims re corded in the precinct.
 The total gold production of the Inuoko for 19O7-S is estimated at $S5- 200. Of this amount $72IOo is cred tied to the year 1908 Four claims produced more than SlO,OOO each, but

The above article appeared in a late issue of the COrdoya Alaskan and is a fair sample of the mis-state- ments which the Tory press of Alaska are wont to print.
 One not familiar with Alaskan pol, itics would infer from this article that Delegate wickersham was just finish. ing his term of office, when in point Of fact be is just commencing it. While he took his seat in the House last March 1t was only because Presi, dent Taft had called special session Of congress and every one knows that the time Of congress was taken up with the consideration of the tar. iff bill, and had little if any time for Alaskan affairs, but in the face of that Delegate Wickersham was recog. nized by a republican speaker and as, signed seat on the republican side Of the House and was placed on two important committees.
 While new in the office of Delegate wickersham was not unknown in Washington and his influence was felt there even before he had taken bis seat, and no unbiased man, read Ing the records can say that he did not make good even during the spe- cial session.
 Delegate wickersham's term of of- flee is all before him, and when he has finished his term, and not until then, does it become any fair minded man to say whether or not he has kept faith with the people who sent him there, to say whether or not he has made good, for it was the people who sent him there and not a cot erie Of political iobbers to whom he nor the people owe anything.

PREMATURE CRITICISM.

As might have been expected, Wick. srsham failed to make good, for the very reason that he was not re- cognized at the capital as a regular Republican. Party lines are drawn in congress and 1t is hopeless for any man to expect to successfully put through legislation Of any importance unless he Is in thorough utilization and harmony with the dominant side and this side is the Republican side. -Cordova Alaskan.

 After reading the public statement of this fellow-sufferer given below, you must come to this conclusion; A remedy which cured years ago, which has kept the kidneys in good health since, can be relied upon to perform the same work in other cas- cs. Read this:
 R. c. Feuton, 39O5 N. Cheyenne st., Tacoma, Wash, says: q gave a state ment for publication, telling of my ex perience with Deans Kidney Pills som years ago and am now pleased to confirm all I then said in their favor. I was afflicted with kidney trouble and finally became so bad off that I was obliged to give up my work. had dull, heavy pains through my kidneys and on one occasion I was confined to my bed for almost a month. The unnatural condition or the kidney secretious also plainly de- noted that my kidneys needed atten- ton. When I learned of Deans Kid ney Pills, I procured a box and be- gan their use. I felt great relief from the first and before long my trouble was entirely disposed of. l have since had no return of kidney complaint"

Milwaukee, Wis, May Tive can
not join hands with the Prohibition
lists, because their principle is wrong
in SO far as they mix good use and
misuse of things that in themselves
are gifts of God.
I'VE regard this as wrong prin.
ciple to prohibit on account of mis-
use the use, manufacture and sale OF
anything that in itself is. not bad"
This is the declaration of Rev. Carl
Eissfeldt, of the Lutheran Orphan
Home who at the recent United Luth-
eran conference of Wisconsin was au-
thorized to 8 e the stand of the
Lutheran clergy.
I'VE have investigated to see IL we
could join hands with the Anti-Sa-
loon Leagues. We find that while they
claim they are not identical with the
prohibition movement, declaring they
would only eliminate the evil of the
present system, in their annual re-
port it is plainly stated that not ex-
cessive drinking or misuse of any
beverage. but any use, manufacture OF
sale of alcoholic beverages is work

Newspaper iniquities came in for
their share of condemnation In a

that he reioiced in their efforts to
promote the common weel and COM
mon good of the people,"
However, there is room for a clean
er journalism, with "the sordid love
of gain" eliminated, he thinks.
OF the labor question, he said: PAY
labor what it is worth and not at
the lowest figure at which it can be
obtained
He vigorously scored the system Of
dealing by contract. "Give us a spir-
it where we will need no tie of con-
tract"
The American people are on the

Perils" at the Auditorium Monday
night
"The corrupt debasing business
methods of the age are abominable
and | will blister and pucker them
wherever l can," he shouted.
He told of having obtained state
ments from business men concerning
the veracity of their kind. One of
them declared that 70 per cent of all
men engaged in business are liars,
and another. placed the ratio at 80
per cent
As a remedy. he says, people must
purge the country of its frenzied and
dishonest spirit of commercialism.
This can be accomplished through the
influence of Christianity, he declares.
He gave a particularly hard rap to
Ill gotten and unconsecrated wealth.
Likening it to wild beast, he said:
at has fangs and thirsts for blood;
It preys upon the weak and helpless
with nothing to guide it but its own
rapaCity.
Tainted dollars have a deadly af-
termath God keep our dollars closn.
Get your kites down and come to
the six-day earthly battles of life"
was his advice to the churches.
"The time has come" he said,

with the men of the cloth in fighting
the hard battles for political ideals

Rev. Wallace M. Short thus began

wrong in it's application. For the

as criminal, can only beget contempt
