PARLIAMENT
BADLY. SPLIT

(By United Press Leased Wire
CONSTANTINOPLE, Jan. g.
Just as anticipated, the Turkish
parliament, SO far as it can be
divided along partisan lines at all,
is splitting into fractions dOmin-
ated on one side by the allied
Turks and Armenians and on the
other by the Greeks.
OF the other nationalities re-
presented in the national legisla-
ture, sufficient proportion are
ranging themselves under the
Turko-Armenian banner to give
the allies comfortable major
ity.
The division represents not
alone radical, but political Diff
ferences of opinion. While max
ing it clear in everything they do
and say that they want no one
to suspect them of reactionary
tendencies, the Greeks may be
considered as representing the
conservative element in the as
sembly.
For all of its members protes-
tations, there is an under current
of feeling that the Greeks are
unfriendly to the new Turkish
regime. "

Today's dispatches indicate condi- tion of cyclones, blizzards, fire and tidal waves that makes us feel glad that we are safely tucked away in Alaska. Not only are we free from terrestrial calamities, up here, but it is long ways for bill collectors to come. Re- mem brance of missdeeds done in the volcanic days of youth grow dim after crossing Dixon's entrance and are quite forgotten here, and never men, toned. Life takes on sweeter tone; the wrinkled brow of anxiety IS smoothed by the winsome spirit of content. Lips grown hardened with artful tales to landlords are touched by the lily fingers of forgetfulness and they smile again.-Ketchikan Miner.

More Gold Than Grub

The Innoko country has during the past year been attracting considerable attention among miners, several of whom have come out from there to Seward and given reports of the new diggings. The Nome Nugget recently published an interview with John Mor row, who went into the Iunoko country last fall. Mir. Morrow said there had been shortage of food in the lnnoko region in the winter, and that when he left Kaltag on his way to Nome there were fourteen dog teams ready to start for Diskakat with grub for the miners.
 Mir. Morrow purchased forty-one head of reindeer last fall and drove them to the new diggings, and sold every pound of the meat at 65 cents per pound. Before he arrived with his herd of deer the only fresh meat to be had was few moose which trappers were bringing in from the Kuskokwim dis trict and retailing for S1 per pound, but the forty-one head of reindeer put the moose trust out of business.
 About 300 miners spent the winter in the Innoko district, and every man was working either for wages at s6 per day and found, or $1 per hour and board himself.
 There are three creeks in the district to date that are producers, Ophir, Little and Gaines. On Ophir some fifteen outfits are working; on Little, about eight, and quite a number on Gaines.
 Bedrock on the respective creeks is from eight to twenty feet, with little or no seepage to contend with. Dave Black and Max Nelson are taking out a fine dump on Ophir, and it is report ed that they have one foot of gravel just above bedrock that will average 25 cents to the pan, and they get from S1 to S3 on bedrock.
 MT. Morrow reports that there are no idle men in the whole district, but pro- visions are high and scarce. Flour on Ophir creek brings $25 per 100 pounds; beans, 50 cents per pound; sugar, rice and articles of that nature are three pounds for S1. Drinks and cigars are 50 cents.
 The country abounds in fine red-top hay in summer, and people cut many tons which has ready market at s76 per ton. The outside products, such as hay, oats. etc., retail at S25o per ton.
 The food supply for the Innoko coun- try is shipped in via Fairbanks, and they get it over from that point about two months earlier than if they had to wait for boats from St. Michael in the spring.

G. W. Vance, a Dominion telegraph lineman, recently made the trip from Carcross to the Stikine and back, after Billy Cooper, who poses as the crack musher of the North, had given up the job.
 A writer in describing the intensity of the cold in the Arctic regions says that water thrown on the ice will crack it, just as boiling water breaks glass. This happens because the ice is so much colder than the water.
 Capt. George Bunnell, of the U. S. signal corps, committed suicide last week at Washington. Capt. Bunnell was in Alaska from 1900 to 1904, when he supervised the construction of the government telegraph line from Valdez to Fairbanks.
 Bids for the care of the Alaska in sane for the next four years were opened last week. Goddard & Brooks, proprietors of the hot springs at Sani- tarium, were the lowest bidders at S25 per month per patient. The next low est bid was from Portland, Ore, $27 50.
 Henry and John Kalem, former resi- dents of Skagway, were suspected of the murder of the wife of the former, whose mangled body was found ou the railroad track, near Seattle. It was supposed that the crime was committed to obtain the S5,OO0 for which she was insured. The evidence produced at the inquest was not sufficient to con- vince the coroner's jury.
 M. A. Harries is supposed to have lost his life on the trail from Fairbanks to the Innoka. He left Valdez in Feb ruary and passed through Fairbanks. The last seen of him was at Lewis roadhouse below Panama. About b miles from there his sled and dogs were found. It is supposed that the team broke through the ice at that point. It is thought that Harries unharnessed the dogs and pulled them out, and, in trying to save his outfit, fell into the water and was carried under the ice.
 Some little time ago when our stamp mill first started to "expose" the rich ness of the quartz properties, there was tremendous hullabaloo and the cleanup returns were eagerly awaited, reporters besieging the stamp mill at all unreasonable hours. Now, in spite of the many tests made, there is re- msrkable and myterious silence on the part of the press. With brokers as- sociation aching to do business with barrels of money to invest, it is time those startling returns were made pub lic.-Fairbanks Bulletin.

The Valdez Prospector in recent issue states that Delegate James Wickersham is to be asked to intro duce into the first session of the 6lst congress a bill having as it's purpose making it possible for mining men to aid in road building in Alaska. The bill applies to placer mines only and it's purpose is to make it legal for plac- CT miners to expend on roads in the district where the mines in question are located, the money required for assessment work.
 The man who plants corn gets corn. The one who puts his hand in the fire gets burnt. The chap who hates every one is hated. The fellow who loves everyone is loved. You can't beat it, boys, it's the law of nature, The little man who does his work the best be can and thinks success gets success. The fighter who thinks his opponent can lick him gets licked. There is no such thing as luck. If you do right only right will come; you do wrong you'll get the worst of it. Let's be kind and square and see if it doesn't make us happy.-Buster Brown.
 Portland, Ore. - Fifty-eight day marks, as aids to navigation, are likely to be placed along the 1000 miles of Yukon river between the mouth of that stream and the boundary of American territory. Capt. Charles Pond, inspec- tor of the United States lighthouse dis trict comprising Oregon, Washington and Alaska, has been told by Washing ton to gather data showing the feasi- bility of the proposal. If final action
 is favorable, small army transport now on the Yukon may be used as soon as the river is free from ice to place the aids. Capt. Pond has been author ized to put in TIT aids to navigation in Southeastern Alaska, from the British Columbia boundary to the other side of Prince William sound. Thirteen of these are fog signal stations and 72 are lights. The lighthouse headquarters office will be busy for several weeks pushing preparations for heavy spring work in north coast waters.
 The Bonnifeld country lies due south from the city of Fairbanks, across the wide Tanana flats. The his tory of the Bonnifield quartz move menC dates back three years, when John Bonnif1eld, who was exploring some of the tributaries of Wood river for placer, noted what appeared to be quartz ledge crossing several of the river's feeders at abont the same dis tance from the main stream. In Au- gust of the following year portions of the great Blue Horn ledge, as it is called where it crosses Sheep creek, were staked by John Bonnifeld, Sam Bonnifeld and Arthur Cruger. The early assays showed values ranging from $7 to SS per ton. The ledge was easily followed for distance of more than five miles across country, as the out-Croppings, especially in the valleys cutting it, were unmistakable. Assays and mill tests by both local assayers and some Colorado firms prove that in five different sections of this distance the ledge carries free gold in sufficient quantity to be worked prodtably. Some asssys run s60 and s7o to the ton.
