SUFFRAGE FOR KAN. AND ARIz.
RESULT IN OREGON AND NIGH.
GAN IN DOUBT.
Women of Eight of the States Now
Have the Right to
Cast Vote.

Minneapolis, Nov. Woman suf-
frage had it's victories in the general
election on Tuesday. The cause won
in two of the five states that voted on
It. The result in two other states still
is doubtful. In the fifth state, Wis
consin, the proposed amendment was
defeated decisively.
Kansas and Arizona have Joined the
procession Of western states who &C.
cord women equal suffrage with men.
In Oregon and Michigan the result is
in doubt. In Wisconsin the amend
ment was defeated by a majority of
$4,000
This is the third time that the ques.
tion has come up before the voters of
Oregon. The women have placed their
hopes high on winning this time.
Washington, the sister state to the
north, granted women the right to vote
at the last election and this fact was
! expected to have had an important
influence.
The states that are now committed
to suffrage are California, Colorado,
Idaho, Utah, Wyoming, Washington,
Arizona and Kansas.
The defeat of the cause in Wiscon-
sin did not come as surprise 1t was
reported that the brewing interests
were working against it and also that
the German farmers, who poll heavy
vote, had been urged to oppose the
proposition.
One cause is universally given as
the reason for the result in Wiscon.
sin. The German and Scandinavian
populations, conservative always,
could not per persuaded to abandon
the old teutonic ideal of the woman
as the home-maker alone.
The German-American alliance took
an active part in the campaign against
suffrage. Its work was done quietly,
but thoroughly. Scores of suffrage
speakers had invaded the state
months before the election. The work
Of these speakers was largely multi.
fed by the declarations of the alliance
to it's members. The league forbade
its members to become involved in pc.
litical strife.
Interest in the suffrage amendment
was not particularly keen in Kansas,
fewer than two-thirds of the voters
taking the trouble to mark their bal.
lots either for or against it. Those
who did vote for it were overwhelm.
ingly in favor Of it, however. The
estimated majority is in excess OF
$4,000.
Interest was much keener in Arizona,
Every important precinct in the state
returned a substantial majority for
the suffrage amendment.
Suffrage leaders in Michigan were
hopeful Of victory. An active cam.
paign had been INDUCED in and the
chances of success were bright.
The influence Of women in politics
was felt to a large degree in Chicago
Minneapolis and St. Paul women are

ments are being made by some of the

New Railroad Stimulates Industry.
 Aside from the increased produc- ton. the m-st important event of the year was the opening of the Copper river region by the comple- ton of the railway into it. The industries already stimulated by this line strikingly illustrate the importance of railway communca- tion to Alaska. As no progress was made in the opening of the coal fields, the needs for cheap fuel in Alaska are being met by the substitution of oil-burning for coal burning engines. The importation of California crude oil is rapidly increasing, with a corresponding de crease in the use of coal Some new drilling was carried on in the Katalla oil field during 1911, one or two old wells being reopened and small production made.
 Good Prospects for Increased Lode
 Mining.
 Although most of the gold still comes from the placers, much pro- gross was made during 1911 in pay ing the way for an increased cut put from auriferous Odes This work was carried on in most of the gold-bearing areas of Alaska. but the most notable advances were in the Juneau. Valdez, Kenai Peninsu- la. Willow creek and Fairbanks dis tricts. Aside from the increase in copper mining the advance made in developing gold lode mines is the most encouraging feature of the years operations. Dredge mining also made great progress, notably in the Nome regicn. Mr. Brooks information is that. in the entire territory, P dredges were operated for the whole or part of the open season of 1911. In addition to those operated, at least half q doz en were in process of construction Geological Survey Press Bulletin

 Iditarod-Inroko Yielas Largely In-
 creased Output.
 Little detailed information is avail able regarding rhs seasons opera tons in the Iditar d-Innoho region. It is reported that the total gold production for 1911 mas q value of $3.500.00o compared with SSoo.uo0 for the previous year. II appears that much of tha gold produced was fir m the Flat. Otter. Willow. Happy and Chicken creek basins. in the region tributary to t1e town of Iditarod. and that in this field some work was also done on Black. Little and other creeks.
 On the Kuskokwim side of the di- vide, including the Goorget-Vn and Tokatna regions, Julien and Moore creeks were reported to be the scenes of the most important min ing and it is said that gold placers have also been found on Dauliu, Crooked, Beaver, Marietta and Mich igan creeks. In the mnoko re- zion Canes and Little creeks are said to have been the chief pro ducers. There was much prospect ing during 1911 in the lower Kus- kokwim region Mining continued in a small way n Tuluksuk creek, and it is reported that some prom ising finds of gold ulaccrs had been made near GnOdneM4 bay.

Alaska is on the up trend. Judg- ed by a large advance in her min eral production in 1911, as estimated IT. Alfred H. Brooks, of the United States Geological Survey, over the output for 1910, mining activities in the Territory during the last year have actively increased. This i'm provement is apparent notwith- standing the continued tie up of all Alaskan coals, the development of which would, it is believed, give a greatly added impetus to the Territory's various industries. The fuel demand is being partially met, however, by the use of fuel oil
 The value of Alaska's mineral production for 1911, is estimated at $2O,370000. Of this amount ST. 10000 is to be credited to gold production, against $16,12S,749 for 1910. MT Brooks further esti mates that the Alaska mines pro- duced 22,900,O00 pounds of copper in 1911. or more than five times the Alaska copper output of 1910, which was 4,241,6S9 pounds In addition to gold and copper, Alaska mines and quarries in 1911 produced silver, tin, coal, marble and gypsum to an estimated value of $39000O, an increase of over $20000 as con- pared with the value of the same products in 1910.
 Mineral Output Over Two Hundred
 Million Dollars.
 The total value of Aaska's min eral production since mining first began in 1880 is, in round numbers, | s206, 100000, or more than twenty nine times the sum paid to Russia for the Territory. Of this amount $195. 5.950.000 represents the total val ue of the gold production Alaska produced its first copper some ten years ago. since which time the ter ritow has contributed 56,700,00O pounds of this metal. valued at $S,- 17O,0O0. About 40 per cent of this total amount was produced in 1911. 1 The favorable showing made by the Alaska mining industry during the year is due, first, to the very large output of copper, and, second 10 the greater production, compared with 1910, of the gold placer mines in the Innoko-Iditarod region

 New Placer Districts Discovered.
 In the summer of 1911 some plac- CT gold was found near Red Noun tain, Cn the headwaters of Indian river, which is ill the koyukuk river drainage basin. There are said 10 be about 50 men prospecting in this region and little placer gold was mined. The auriferous gravels of the Nowitna river region also excited some interest in 1911, though no important discoveries are re ported
 The Ruby creek region of the Yukon attracted renewed interest in 1911. Ruby creek is small stream flowing into the Yukon from the south opposite the mouth of Meloz- itna river about 200 miles below the Panama. Gold was found in the Ruby creek gravels in 1907. and since then there has been a little productive mining each year Con- siderable excitement was caused among the Yukon miners by the re- ported discoveries during the sum- mer of 1911 of rich placers in some creeks located in this general region and 20 to 30 miles from the Yukon. As consequence, there was a general movement toward the new find from the Yukon camps These discoveries of placer gold were made in the headwater regions of SOlatna river, which heads on the south side of the Ruby creek di-
 vide and flows northeastward to
 join the Nowitna, a southerly tribu- tary cf the Yukon. The creeks re

THE PEEVlSH CHILD
NEEDS TREATMENT

When child sulks drowsily, or Is
fretful, 1t is usually due to some slight
disorder Of the digestive organs, and a
mild laxative is very often all that is
necessary to restore cheerfulness and
buoyancy OF spirits.
In cases where the use of gentle,
effective laxative stimulant Is indi-
Gated, many of the best physicians are
now prescribing DIR. Caidwells Syrup
Pepsin. This preparation is admitted
~ the perfect laxative, being mild, yet
positive in its action on the bowels,
and far preferable to violent cathart-
les and pnrgative waters. 1t is very
pleasant to the taste and is an ideal
remedy to regulate and strengthen the
stomach, liver and bowels It's easy,
natural action makes 1t especially de-
sirable in the case of children, dose
at bedtime being sure to have the de-
sired result next morning, with no at
tendant unpleasantness or discomfort.

by druggists everywhere in SOC and

this splendid remedy write to DR.. w.
