Twenty. six men are now engaged on the famous Beatson mine on Latouche island. It is now demonstrated fact that this big copper mine Is true ledge of ore, rather than "oio~'out'
 or deposit of mineral lying ln huge pocket. The ledge has been traced a considerable distance, by means or tunnel being driven nearly paraliei with the ledge. Crosscut tunnels branching out from the main tunnel tap the ledge at intervals of 50 feet apart. In all of these tunnels the ledge is encountered, and practically the same character of ore and the same width of ledge matter maintains. The width of the ledge is IS feet and the ore is a sulphide, or chalcopyrite. It will average 15 per cent copper. There is an immense blowout from this ledge, and it is at this point where the mining operations have chiefly center ed. It Is figured that the Beatson ledge runs through the island. James Girdwood, who is interested in claims contiguous, is now installing an air compressor drilling apparatus, which he purchased from the Alaska Central Railroad com. pany, and will drive tunnels in the hope of striking a continuation of the rich Beatson lode-Seward Gateway.

la the opinion of the editor the ex- pression "Virtue is it's own reward" has received quite a jar. At Skagway he took nothing stronger than an ice- cream soda and came home sick and has been under the weather ever since, while others who paid for rooms and never occupied them, who drank every thing from stark naked hootch to Mumm's, came home in good shape, or were in good shape shortly after reach ing home. This thing of being held up by all the ladies as bright and shining example of decorum and decency is delusion and snare.-Whitehorse Star.

Alaskan Mining Laws

HIdShdLl 4VAlAul4S A@" "S
 Denver, Colo.-The American Mining Congress is preparing to make an ex haustive inquiry into mining conditions in Alaska, with special reference to needed changes in the mining laws, and to this end has appointed committee of five men who will spend most of the summer conducting investigations and preparing recommendations The re- port of this committee will be one of the chief topics for discussion at the next annual session of the Mining Con gress, which will be held at Goldfeld, Nevada, Sept. 27th to Oct. 2ud, 1909.
 The names of the members of the committee are: J. l.. Steele, chairman, Landlock, Alaska; Maurice D. Leehey, Falcon Joslin and H. R. Hartman, of Seattle, and w. l.. Leland, of San Fran cisco. All five are heavily interested in Alaska, and are more or less thor cughly acquainted with mining condl tions in that district. Several meetings of the committee have already been held in Seattle, and after sub division of work, the men respectively departed for Alaska to make their special invest tigations. The questions to be taken up, together with the name of the party to whom the task of Investigating has . | c,l
 1st. Corporation Laws and Proven ton of Wild-catting, assigned to MT. Steele.
 2nd. Transportation, specially with reference to miuiug roads, assigned to Mir. Joslin.
 3rd. Laws relating to water rights, assigned to Mir. Leland.
 4th. Laws relating to coal and oil lands, assigned to Mr. Hartman.
 5th. Mining Laws, both lode and placer, assigned to Mir. Leehey.
 It is especially desired that all Alas ka mining men who have any recon mendations or suggestions to offer to the committee with reference 10 any of the above, should correspond with the chairman as promptly as possible, addressing Mr. J. l.. Steele, of Land lock, Alaska.
 No movement of recent years has meant so much for Alaska as this ef- fort of the Mining Congress to remove the restrictions which are hindering the development of that territory. The rapid rise of AIaskain gold production, the opening up of vast bodies of copper ore, and the discovery of large beds of good cCal have so attracted capital that demand is now arising for needed changes in the laws so as to secure pro- lection and justice for all concerned. This committees report, if adopted at the session of the Mining Congress in Goldfeld, will be made the basis of an appeal to the congress of the United Ii States, at it's regular session next De- cem Der, to take up the question of amending the mining laws of Alaska in line with these recommendations.
 1t is hoped that all mining men who have any interest in this matter, and who recognize the handicaps resting upon Alaska, will communicate with the chairman of the committee, and lend such assistance and cooperation in making these investigations as will enable the committee to make it's work thorough and with greatest advantage tO the territory
