GEOLOGICAL REPORT
 oF s;|TkA DISTRICT i
Report is Issued by the United States Geological Sur
 vey

The Sitka Mining District of Alaska" by Adolph knopf, is a brief report just issued by the United States Geological Survey as Bulletin 50i. While the output of the mines of the Sitka district has helped to swell the value of the annual mineral production of Alaska, the production has at no time been comparable with that of the big producing districts of the territory. The gold dcpOS- it's of the Sitka district are found in quartz SO that the development has been that of lode gold mining. Although inc first lode mining in Alaska is credited to the Sitka mining diSlricl--in l87 I--liltIr or nothing was actually produced until 1905, when discoveries of aurifcrOnS lOdcS were made near klag bay, on Chiragof island.
 The conclusions reached by Mr. kunpf as iO the mineral rrSniir- crS of the Sitka district are that they consist of gold and gypsum, With granite as d possible undr- vrluprd resource. The gold is found in quartz lndrS and two I.prnprrlir$, at klag bay, have been put nn d productive basis, with strong pr"mis" of prosperous career. The ores. which range in value from S15 tO 500 d ton, are of considerably higher grade than the average ore of south eastern Alaska. A large number of ore bodies of the same grnar- al character have long been known to exist near Sitka, but owing lO the lOw-gradr ores con tainrd in them none have yet been brought to a producing stage. The indications afforded by present developments point strongly to the conclusion that the entire strip of territory contiguous to Inc west coast of ChicaTof island offers a more encouraging in hucrmrnl iu the search for new ore bodies than any other part of inc region.

VALDEZ AND sHAckLEFoRD.

From present indications the Republican primaries to be held on March 6 will be d harmonious affair. It is. possible there may be more than one ticket in the field but such action is not an ticipatcd by those who are in closest touch with the situation.
 The judges have declared there will be none of the sharp political practices employed here such as were used in the COrdova pri- marirs. SD far as the CordOva convention is concerned the great majority of Republicans will have tO chose between two evils if they wish in take part in the rlrr- lion. The situation has drvrl- nprd into d Shacklcrord or anti Shacklrfnrd fight. The former element iS headed by Boryrr, at- iornry for the Copper River rail road in Alaska, and the antis arc ihr Slandpallrrs of the Rcpubli- can party in Alaska.
 The majority of Valdez Rcpub- licanS voted Inc independent tick ct last election and arc not over enthusiastic in their support to either of the warning elements. There ;S. however, no question as io how this community stands in regard to Shacklcford being elect ed national committeeman to the Chicago convention. He is not wanted and the Republicans who arc not part of the machine may lend their support 10 eliminate him, prcfcrring an unknown qual- ity to a positive evil.
