utterly intolerable, in fact, it was so
that could not possibly forget about
1t. 1t did not take long before it
spread to my shoulders and arms, and

raw flesh on account of my scratching

Mexico City-The Diaz government,
thoroughly aroused by the spread of
brigandage and vandalism incident to

Significant changes In the kind 10
development Alaska Is receiving ara
interestingly reflected on the Pacific
coast this spring. Instead OF q multi.
tude of individual outfits the steam.
ship companies are receiving consign.
ments OF milling and lode mining
machinery in great quantities. A
number of big dredges for the han.
ding of low-grade placer ground are
included and, of course. the usual
cargoes of supplies. These largely
take the place Of individual outfits an

buys In the north at the trading post
nearest the field he 10 going into.
The heavy mining machinery In
generally consigned to southwestern
Alaska ordova, Valdez or Seward
each of which points Is having its
first real lode mining boom.
Valdez began last year with the
sensational gold output from the
Cliff mine, whose two-stamp mill pro-
duced 100000 in the season. In.
stead of one mill there win be at
least seven there this year.
Seward is headquarters for several
good gold lode camps. Beginning
within two miles of town they ex-
tend far up into the great Susitna
basin, much of which is still unpros-
pected. The leading camp is Willow
Creek, in the heart of the basin,
which produced 100000 with FIVE
stamps last year.
Cordova not only has a promising
gold lode camp Of it's own-The Nc
Kinley Lake section-but now has a
completed railway to the heart of the
great ,Chitina copper region. There
will be much prospecting and devel-
opment all along the 200 miles of this
railroad and beyond it in absolutely
new territory. Much development Of
a large sort will also be done by
capital on established properties.
There is no doubt of there being a
boom and big influx of population
to this region. 1t is already on.
Even CONGRESSES refusal to lend
Alaska a much needed helping hand
is not to be quite fatal, 1t would
seem.

political wisdom of the auburn haired
politician. 1t says:
"lnndvlsable to press charges against

1t may be remarked in passing that
the charges were not pressed.
Harry Joseph had ordered the Re

the result of the primary election, but
the disheartcncd Republicans at the
Republican headquarters had not the
courage to do so. Mr.. Joseph is at
present In Chicago IN attendance upon
the American Mining congress. How
ever, he Will be back to vote at the
city election
Some speculation has been INDUCED
in as to what part Harry will take in
the campaign. 1t is certain that a
campaign without Joseph is a soup with
out a relish, Mr.. Joseph g friends are

OF the former speaker of the Utah
