ALASKA, ITS POSSIBILITIES.
When Rightly Handled, Gold Supply
Inexhaustible.

That Alaska has attracted large
combinations of capital sufficient to
prove it one of the richest gold fields
in the world Is already well known, but
the most optimistic estimate fell short
of that made by Joslin at Washington.
lie speaks of a placer area that will
not be exhausted in thousand years,
and Of thousands Of miles of country
rich in both placer and quartz There
is nothing in romance more stirring to
the Imagination. and yet each of his
statements is fortified by details giving
presumptve evidence of sober truth.
The most striking feature of his re-
port Is that in Alaska they are working
for the most part only the gravels that
will carry from So to $40 yard where
as in California we work them down to
a value of cents a yard. In q few
areas they are dredging on a lower ba-
sis but the lowest Of these Is six times
higher than the paying minimum IN
California.
with adequate transportation ana
coal mining. Alaska would be able To
tan supplies Of gold practically mex
haustible. and as California can not
fail to share largely in her prosperity
it is in the best interests Of this state
to aid the territory in every reasonable
appeal to congress.

tours Mr.. Bryan is far from being
a poor man, and the common estimate
OF his fortune has been quarter or
million dollars.
If Mr.. Bryan is the devoted servant
Of the people. as per many professions,
he might at least spare us the know
ledge Of his financial sacrifices. " ne
cannot make both ends meet on VIZ

more ipconspicious side line than the
lecture platform. and even on the pat
form he might be euphem1stic enough

words Of sanity and wisdom to the

and the peril which he had in view
was something vastly different from
that conjured up by the hosts who
are now holding the stage trying to
get the ears of the American people.
They, themselves, in Col. Watterson's
opinion, constitute the real peril. We
are threatened, he says, with govern :

cess on one hand by the vainslorious
assertion of our puissance, on the

selves of their own freedom, stilNlng
to regulate everything by the act ct
the legislature rather than by the cus-

tone and sense Of self-reliant man

enslaving themselves to petty rules
and regulations, to which they assent
on the theory that they are for the

WARRINGTON. -. G.. July IA.
Congressman Smith has made vigor-
Gus protest at the postoflice depart

ment to make reasonable provision
for Increased compensation to the star
route mail carriers in Idaho on account
of the Inauguration Of the parcel post
system. At the time the contracts
were entered into the additional weight
of the mails incident to the Inaugural
ton of the parcel post system was
not contemplated, and the carriers
have found 1t necessary to provide adj
ditional horses and wagons in order to
take care of the large quantity of pack
ages which is now being carried
through the mails. In many instances
marketing Is sent to the towns through
the mails, and in some of the remote
places In the state a great deal Of mer-
chandise Is carried. which imposes an
extra burden on the mail contractors,

department weighs the mails during
March and April at a time when the

gresham Smith contends that it Is un-
fair to the carrier to adjust any al
lowance which may be made for car
rying parcel post packages on weigh
ing conducted during those months
and that the Weighing should be made
during June and July. especially In re-
mote places in order to get fair esti-
mate Of the quantity of mail carried
during the year upon which to make
the calculation for extra compensation
for the increased quantity. He has the
assurance of the department officials
that all complaints will be investigat-
ed and reweighing be made If IT APP

loss and depreciation, and long and
costly period of reimbursement?
Why Not the Referendum?
These are questions which the Ann

the Underwood bill contemplates.

RISKS OF MINING.
Explanation Of Different Stages of In
telligcnt Work.
(Paciiic Mining Journa

(Paci6c Mining JournaD.
Mining is such a risky business,
one often hears. Few stop to note the
differences between looking for mines,
opening up prospects and working de-
veloped properties.
There are three distinct stages in the
making of a mine; 1t must first be
discovered then developed from mere
discovery or prospect into mine The
first stages are the risky ones. 1t Is
obvious that only certain localities
have mineral possibilities and after
mineral in place has been found 1t may
not be payable under the conditions
presented either from want of quality
or quantity or by reason of inaccessi-
bility. No mineral that can not be
made to pay where found can be con-
sidered an core" It is in these prelin-
mary stages that the risk comes. When
ore has been found in quantity and
developed to the stage of profitable
production and blocked out ahead sui
J ficiently to insure several years run
at reasonable rate of production
then the risk becomes no greater than
that of any other business. 1t is only
at this stage that 1t is really mining
Prospecting and developing prospects
is quite another game and one subject
to considerable risk but they are not
strictly mining and should not be s.
considered
Another thing often confused with
mining is specializing in mining stocks
The owner of a few hundred or fe"
thousand shares of cheap stock CON
siders himself "intcrested In mining
and notorious mining stock iohhers are
some times spoken Of as well know
mining men, Real mining is making
holes in the earth developing minera
deposits. Buying and selling pieces q
raper with gilt letters on Is gampllh
in stocks and Is not to be confuse'
with mining as q business.
