TO NOTIFY EVER Y MAN
That He is Wanted in The Army
 In Defense of His Country

LONDON, Oct. PA scheme promulgated by the Earl of Derby seeking to avoid conscription, finds considerable support among all clas- ies, particularly among the offic- als of the recruiting board.
 In speaking of his scheme; the Earl said today.
 "The changes that propose mak- ng have not been necessiated by any shortcomings on the part of the re- ruiting staff, but by the, exigen- .ies of the present situation, which, my mind, requires entirely new methods of dealing with the sub ect."
 The plan is to send personal etter to each eligible man of the ountry, in which he will be told hat his country needs his services. And only in the event that not nough more respond to the call will onscription be resorted to.

GOLD AND COPPER DEPOSIT
 OF VALDEZ DISTRICT

The United States Geological Survey has recently issued, as Bull letin 622-E, report on the gold and copper deposits of the Port Val dez district, Alaska, by B. l.. John son. The report describes the dis tribution, gelogic relations, and char acteristi tics of the mineral deposits of the district. The Port Valdez dis trict is one of strong relief. The mountains inclosing the fiord rise abruptly from sea level and in parts of the district attain elevations of 4,000 feet within a mile of the coast.
 The mineral resources of the Port Valdez district comprise depos- it's of gold, silver, and copper. At present gold and silver are the only metals recovered from the ores, but recent developments indicate that the Midas mine, on Solomon Gulch, will soon become a copper pro- ducer. Last year nine mills of var ious types were in operation in the Port Valdez district, and it is esti- mated that between 250 and 300 men were engaged in mining at one time or another during the year. The value of the total mineral pro- duction to January 1, 1915, has been about $9O0,OO0.
 A copy of the report may be ob- tained free on application to the Director of the Geological Survey, Washington, D. c.

 The President as we'll as Secre- tary Lane were asked the nature of the charges, the answer came back denying that any charges had been filed either against the Governor or his secretary.
