VICTOR BERGER'S
VALEDICTORY.

Victor l.. Berger, the Socialist rep
rcsentative, of Milwaukee, who will
not return to Congress, has issued a
valedictory in which he reviews poll
tical conditions, claims that the Pro-
gressive campaign was made on
'scmi-socialistic PLATFORM" ard de-
clares that Colonel Roosevelt polled
hundreds Of thousands of votes that
should have gone to the Socialist
ticket.
Representative Berger declared that
there shuld be at least 50 Socialist
members in Congress to put ginger
into the old parties"
"Thc Democratic party" said he. "is
eactionary because it is controlled by
coalition of the South and Tam
many. The South is 80 years behind
the North in economic development.
| It's just entering upon the riot Of
capitals development through
which the North has passed during the
last 80 years. An industrial panic is
due in about one year. That will
mean Democratic hard times ard soup
kitchens. This time the panic will
break up the solid South and cause
riot and disturbances"
Berger is naturally sore from the
fact that his political sun is setting.
His prophecies of what will take
place under Democratic administra-
ton will take their places among
those Of Mother Shipton and Johanna
Southcotc, we'll known characters in
English history.
The above brings to min da fore
taste of a mightier man than

years ago, at time when the Repub-
lican party was in its Infancy, said
that should that organization ever get

ALASKA REPORT

GEOLOGICAL SURVEY DEPART.
MENT PREDICTS GOOD MIN
ING DISTRICT NEAR VALDEZ

Thousands of gold seekers who /
Joined in the mad rush to the Klon-
dixie hurried over ground containing |
that very treasure which they ex-
pected to find at the end Of their
journey. Many Of these gold seek
ers. indeed, must have passed in
sight of the quartz vein near Valdez
glacier, which IL years later was
developed in what is now known
as the Cliff mine This vein has
been averaging about $50 ton,
mostly in free gold, with little
change in depth, the concentrates
running about Z per cent and carry
ing about 800 worth of gold to the
ton. This is probably fair measure
of the gold content of the ores Of the
district, though many property own
ers report contents ranging from SIS
to 5000, or even higher. The Cliff
mine became productive in 1910 and
proved TO be very profitable. Its
success greatly stimulated prospect
ing by local miners and also attract
ed the attention of non-residents.
who quickly recognized the posi-
bility of developing here a new min
ing district AS result, several
hundred lode claims were staked
and considerable development work
was undertaken in 1910 and 1911
At this time Alfred H. Brooks, &c
ologist in charge Of the Alaskan
work of the United States geological
survey, visited the region and made
an examination OF its possibilities
J and his report, just issued by the
survey as Bulletin 520-D, shows thai
the most encouraging feature of the
district is the fact that one lodt
! has been profitably mined to deptt
of about 400 feet and for about 5Ol
feet along the strike. SO far as car

logic conditions at the Cliff minis
which are not found elsewhere in thu
region. Although, as in all minini

A "Moonshine" Mule

What shall the Federal Cover
ment do with a pack mule that
makes regular trips across the
line out Of old Indian Territory. gets
its pack filed with liquor and goes
back again to distribute its supply
to.regular customerst This problem
was laid before the United States
District Attorney at Muskagee,
Okla. The Information stated that
the bootlegging mule made it's trips
without a pilot and that the name of
it's owner of those persons who sup
piled the liquor was unknown.
The mules field of operation is
along the line between Creek county,
in the old Indian Territory, and
Payne county, in what formerly
was Oklahoma Territory and where
the Federal liquor law does not ap-
ply.
Someone in Payne county is said
to load the mules pack. whereupon
the animal returns across the line,
stopping at certain farm houses.
where the farmer takes out his bot
tie and drops 1.-The money into the
pack. A special investigation will
be made to ascertain the power
