BOSTON PAPER QUOTES
 JACKLING ON JUNEAU

Quoting Col. D. c. Jackling, the man. aging director of the Alaska Gold com pany and ne Alaska-Gastineau com pany as itssauthority. the Boston News Bureau says:
 "Record.breaking progress has been made in driving the main tunnel at the Alaska Gold Co. property, showing what may be accomplished in scientific mining in the frozen North. One and one-half miles of the 10000 foot 12x1O foot bore has been driven in one year and and month. This progress, he says. challenges any tunnel driving in this country. The average progress without adits has been 500 feet month ly.
 During November 62O feet of diff. cult ground was penetrated. When this tunnel is completed the company will have entered into a great range of precious metal. with gold values pre- vailing.
 This work is destined to stimulate interest in Alaska mining, as this de- velopment is being watched by all con- cerns engaged in mining in this coun- try"

GOOD TIMES ARE
 NOW UNDER WAY

NEW YORK, Jan. 9.-The Financial News, reviewing the first week of the New Year, says:
 "There is no question but that bus mess sentiment is improving. No sud den boom is expected, but with the liquidated position of trade, 1t is be- lieved that there will be every stimulus to increase commitments.
 Tt is best opinion that the country is facing better times. The world has experienced adverse conditions, but 1t would seem as if 1t was passing out of the shadow into the sunlight of prosperity.
 Interest in financial circles centers entirely on the currency bill. The con. sensus of banking opinion is favorable. It is felt that something has been ac. complished, and there is readiness to give President Wilson the credit which is his due.
 "When the bill is in actual opera tion, it will mean an enormous exten- sion of credit.

DOUGLAS NEWS PRAISES
 VOLUNTARY TAX PAYMENTS

We note that the Treadwell. and, we understand, several others of the big mining companies of this part O; Alas ka, have stepped to the front and paid their Territorial tax, when it is well understood there is no legal way in which to enforce It's collection. We are pleased to note that there are citizens who wish to obey the law. even if there is no punishment possible for its vio- lation. If all men were built on that principle, the penalty clause attached to laws would be unnecessary. It is wrong to kill or steal, but it is only the fear of the punishment that keeps some people from doing 1t. ThesAlas' ka Legislature made some good laws, but there are thousands of good CD citizens as long as lawyers and courts will help them dodge.-Douglas News.

ALASKA CONVICT IS
 SEEKING HIS FREEDOM

District Attorney John Rustgard has received a letter from R. V. Ladow, president of the Board of Pardons re- lating to the case of Walter H. Dean, who is now serving 12-year sentence in the Federal penitentiary, at Leay- enworth. Kan. having been trasferred from McNeil Island, to which place he was sentenced by the judge of the dis trict court sitting in Juneau. Dean was convicted of two crimes. For grand larceny committed at Douglas he was sentenced to four years, and sentence Of years was imposed for aiding in an attempt to break jail.
 Mir. Ladow has become interested in the case, and has started an inyestiga- tion on behalf of the prisoner. Accord ing to the president of the Board of Pardons. Dean alleges that he is in. noeent of the crime of larceny for which he was convicted but guilty of the aid in attempting to break jail. He declares that he was convicted on perjured testimony of Mike Sullivan, who. he says. is now doing time at McNeiPs Island, for that perjury, and upon other perjured evidence.
 The president of the Board of Par dons says that he finds upon inquiry that Mike Sullivan is, indeed, serving time at the McNeil Island peniten- tiary for perjury. but does not know if it is for the otrense alleged by Dean.
 Dean and another prisoner were con- fined in the Federal jail here awaiting trial for the larceny at Douglas when the attempt at jailbreaking occurred. It was the custom to allow prisoners in the corridor, one at time to shave. In some manner Sullivan, while out, secured a short piece of lead pipe, and as the jailer came to the door to let Dean out the latter threw pepper in the jailer's eyes, thinking that the way was clear, and Sullivan struck him with the pipe while he was blinded. Howev- CT. the door was still locked and their plan to escape was frustrated.

CANNERIES WILL
 DOUBLE CAPACITY

Although last season was a disap' pointmeut to most of the cannerymen of Southeastern Alaska, there is still an optimistic outlook for the indus try in the future" said R. E. Davis, head of the Tee Harbor Packing com pany, who is now in Juneau, having arrived on the Al.Ki. Mir. Davis is making a flying visit and will return South almost immediately.
 We shall double the capacity of the Tee Harbor plant this comnig season" said Mir. Davis, "and look for a greatly increased pack of salmon next season. We must not allow the de- mand for the establishment of hatch cries to grow cold, however, for the supply will be greatly diminished un- less measures are taken to increase the propagation. The hatcheries on Pu. get Sound are demonstrating all the time their . 'lity to keep up the sup ply. All tn ackers are anticipating increased ' Ees soon and more hope ful tone is ident. More people will eat fish hereafter on account of the high price of beef and other meats"
 So firm is the belief in better times for the fishing industry of Alaska, that many of the Southeastern packers are making arrangements to increase the capacity of their plants. It is known that the Hawk Inlet cannery is to be greatly enlarged. In fact the lumber and other necessary materials for this improvement were aboard the Jeanie enroute to that place at the time the vessel was wrecked some weeks ago. From reliable source 1t is also learned that another and one of the largest and best canneries. that of the Hoonah Packing company, is to have its capacity doubled. E. A. Sims, of Port Townsend, is the head of the Hoonah Packing company and very much interested in Alaska. He is also member of the Washington State Legislature and was Republican floor leader in the last House of Represen- tatives. It is needless to say that he takes an active interest in fish legis- lation.
