Beaumont, Judge Full Ter of Fairbanks has granted the plaintiff an absolute divorce from her husband, who is over 70 years of age, and is at present a prisoner in the federal penitentiary at McNeil's island.

The ground for the divorce, as stated in the complaint, was assertion.

EX-CABINET OFFICER
 CHARGED WITH GRAFT
Member of Taft's Administration Said to Have Winked at the Destruction
 of Alaska Fur Seals

Washington, Jan. 1S.-Quite large sized sensation was sprung in this city yesterday when it was announced that the house com mittee on expenditures had unaerthed 8 charge of graft against one of the former cabinet officials. The committee accuses Charles Nagel, secretary of commerce and labor in the Taft cabinet of securing graft in the protection of the seals in Alaskan waters. It IS charged that the former sec retary winked at the destruction of the fur seals in Alaska, although large sums were secured to protect them from unlawful kill ing.
 Charges of graft are also made against former high government officials and off cials of the North American Commercial Company From the information already given out it is learned that the govern ment officials were working a division of the illegal seal profits. On the strength of the showing made by the committee on ex- penditure it is probable that congress may order an investigation of the affair.

REPORTS FROM NELCHINA
 ARE MOST ENCOURAGING
New Discoveries Said to Have Been Made and Results of Prospecting Are Pre-
 sumabIy Satisfactory

Valdez Jan. 20.-Angus McDougal, 8 we'll known miner, returned today from Mel china and reports that the camp will be very large producer. He has ordered an Empire drill with fvench core for the pur- pose of prospecting the deeper ground where the best placer pay has been located. He is returning at once to the camp to con tinue work There are now 250 men in the camp and three women. Guy Birch, Se- attle attorney, and his wife, have secured good claim The Grifiths brothers of Fair banks have secured from knik owners an option on three claims on Crooked creek, paying s9, 900 cash down They have 8 Key stone drill working with nine-inch core, and the results have every indication of being permanently satisfactory.
 A new discovery was made on Dublin gulch, about IS miles from Crooked creek. The gulch is, however, small containing only four claims There is an l8-inch streak of pay dirt, and pans run from 25 cents to dollar.
 Many who were formerly in the Chlsana are now all heading towards the Nelchina camp including Bill Black the Nome and Council freighter, who has 28 horses stead lily employed freighting into the Nechina and with not an idle hour since he started, and at very good rates. It is reported that well known Nome mining men have impor- tant interests in ths camp, following the visit of Jafet Lindeberg and party last fall

Physicians Taking Out Licenses

There has been a great deal of core spondence between members of the territorial medical board with view of raising the standard of the medical profession in Alaska More than 60 per cent of the repu- table physicians in Alaska have applied to the board and secured territorial licenses While this is not compulsory for those es tablished before the new territorial law went into effect, it is an evidence of good faith and an additional guarantee that those securing the same are in first class standing as physicians and surgeons

A JUDICIAL HUERTA
aldez Commoner

The ketchikan Morning Mail says: Judge Jennings recently refused to grant saloon license to Chris Petievith of Juneau on the ground that there are already too many saloons in Juneau The wrong part of this is the fact that the decision in the matter IS with the judge of the district court. Juneau has nineteen saloons located sufi- ciently convenient that no one, however famished need perish for want of drink, and we are not saying that the judge is unwise in his decision, but 1t Is 50 foreign to anything like democracy to place this decision at the disposal of any one man that we are unable to see how an American congress could 80 legislate"
 That is the whole thing in nutshell, Brother Mail Judge Jennings thinks nine teen saloons are enough, but suppose Judge Jennings should die (and the good most always die young) and some other judge should be chosen who would decide that one saloon was enough Would not his opin- ion have as much right to prevail as the opinion of Judge Jennings? There should be no judicial Huertas in Alaska. Bob Jen- nings is no better judge of how many sa- looms Juneau needs than the president of the Bartenders' Union of the capital city.

ENTITLED TO BLAME AS WELL
Fairbanks News Miner

Every grand jury of the past has been permitted or induced to report upon the district attorneys office of this district. Full some praise of District Attorney Crossley has been put through at least one grand jury of other days. It would naturally ap- pear that if grand jury is permitted to praise him for any reason, another grand jury should be entitled to blame him, if that grand jury believes that he is to be blamed We do not believe that the sup pression of the grand jury's report was caused by any desire on the part of Judge Fuller to protect the district attorney, and do not believe it is just that such impress sion should prevail

JUNEAU TO YIELD YEARLY
 TWENTY MILLION DOLLARS
Four Properties Alone Will Exceed Present Gold Yield of Entire Territory
 LiveIiest Alaskan City

-Four properties within radius of three miles, with Juneau as the center will be producing within four years, when the de velopment now on is completed, total of 1 S2O, 900, GOO year. This is more gold than is now produced annually in Alaska, and ap- proximatelv as much as the production of the great gold states of California and Col orado."
 Such is the statement of Philip c. Stoess, mining engineer, in the Seattle Postlntelli- gencer. Mir. Stoess returned recently from business trip to the Southeastern Alaska metropolis,
 "The significance of these figures is fur ther indicated when it IS known that the production of the great Treadwell mine now is less than $3,000,000 year. The Tread we'll is one of the four properties which are making Juneau the center of the greatest mining activity on the American continent Its production is about 100000 tons of ore running something less than s2.50 ton. This is to be considerably increased.
 "The Alaska Gastineau and the Alaska Juneau properties will develop capacity of not less than 5000 tons day, and the Ebner property which has been tied up by litigation for long time, will be put on heavy producing basis by the United States Smelling and Refining Company.
 In Small Area
 "All this production is in an area of not more than ten square miles. With many properties producing and developing on each side of Juneau for 100 miles, it is reason able to suppose that there will be other properties that will perhaps compare in wealth with the large ones mentioned. Out side capital IS being attracted to the Juneau country by the remarkable record of the properties already devloped."
 With all this development, however Mir Stoess says there are many idle men around Juneau during the winter. This condition will be removed with the opening of spring.
 Liveiest Town in Alaska
 Juneau right now has the reputation of being the liveliest town in Alaska, MT. Stoess says One thing that surprised him was the number of automobiles in use in that town of not more than 5000 inhabitants.
 There are several fine cars in the town" he said Two of the big stores make their deliveries by auto, and the cars are used 8 great deal, notwithstanding the restricted area in which they can be operated. even noticed one taxicab in the city"

RICH QUARTZ FIND NEAR sUsIThA
Was Reported by the Mining Expert, John
 F. Baird of lditarod

The Seward correspondent of the Seattle IS, writes as follows to that paper:
 John F. Baird a well known mining and business man from Iditarod and Fairbanks, who has just arrived in Seward from the big interior camp, says that at Susitna sta ton, on his way out, he saw some of the richest quartz he has ever seen during lifetime spent in mining camps. The quartz was sample weighing l6S pounds, and Mir Baird says that at a conservative estimate there is more than $1 1000 in free gold in the sample
 "The ore is from lately discovered ledge and was located late last fall by two pros pectors named Gage and Baker. When they made the discovery they banned and nor tared out specimens of the ore, and at Su sitna station had $2,000 in dust that they had extracted from the ore with gold pan and a clawhammer They took the largest piece of the richest ore they could find and loaded it on dog sled and brought it down to the station.
 Nugget gulch has long been one of the best producers in the Cache creek country in placer way, and the gold all shows recent release from quartz, which leads many to believe that the recent find un- covers one of the principal sources of the Cache creek paystreak."

Seattle, Jan 26-What IS left of the stor- age egg stocks may receive stunning blow by the opening of the sales of eggs from the Orient at 35 cents per dozen, the same price as the April product.

WOLVES DESTRUCTIVE TO GAME

C. B. McDowell of Chicken creek, who has made study of the habits of caribou, has written an interesting letter about the same, says the Juneau Empire
 He says the main caribou range ot Alaska is bounded on the northeast by the Yukon river the southwest by the Panama river and the southeast by the White river In this district the snowfall is lighter than in any part of Alaska the climatic conditions are the most favorable, and the feed the most plentiful.
 The calving season is during early May and the letter says one may travel for days over the rolling hills near the headwatres of Seventy river and the hills appear to be in motion, owing to the thousands and thousands of herds of caribou and their young The calves readily become domestl- cated, and will follow man. During the calving season no males are seen among the herd. They join the ''cows" in June or July.
 The letter states that 9 wolves will de- strov more caribou than all the miners and residents in the territory. Even the tourist head hunters are not nearly so destructive. The wolves camp upon the flank of the herd, cutting out their prey and feasting upon them continually. The writer believes a bounty of s1O head on wolves should be offered. This has been recommended al ready by the governor in his report, Mir. Mcdowell thinks that the caribou, if prop erly conserved will become 8 valuable Alas kan industry, supplying the markets of the world.
