There can be no longer any question but that the mining industry of this region is due tor a waking up at once, that will bring it into the place it is entitled to in the mining in- G1stry of the world, for the news that the Great Boulder Company of London and Aus tralia had taken over the op- tons of the Alaska Venture syndicate absolutely removes iHe least fragmant of doubt.

 PIONEERS' HOME

The Alaska Pioneers Home, which will be opened about July 25, at Sitka, is not a homo
 for indigent persons, but for pioneers of Alaska, who from Iphvsicial disabilities or old age arc in need of a place wherein they may recover or may spend their declining years in peace land comfort. This was the in tention of it's promoters, and tt is intended that the disabled lnen-miners and prospectors- who are physically unfit longer to pursue their calling, and tp whom fortune has been unkind shall not become the objects of public charity or suffer from want. This is the spirit which was behind the idea, and it is G.ong these lines that the Home will be conducted. IL may, however be pointed out, that the Home is not intended for those who have brought 'EnsfQrtune upon themselves through over-indulgence in sleong drink. But the pioneer the men who have blazed the tra:ls and have met with the want of success that IS too of
 ten the lQt ef the men i'll the advance guard of civilization will be cared for, The Terri torlal Legislature appropriated $ lJ,000 for the maintenance of the home until it's next ses son. Il is not a large amount, and as pointed out in these col unns yesterday by Represent ative Arthur G. Shoup, the Home is not debarred from re- ceiving donations of any kind money or books, or ther usc- ful articles that will serve to make the home attractive to it's occupants. A good liabary is particularly needed, and AL aska and other newspapers would be desirable.
 The people of Alaska gener- ally should take an active inter- est in the welfare of the Pio- neers' Home. It is a worthy institution and will be main- uained in a worthy cause. -Em- rlre.
