Tuneau Gold District

One of the greatest assets of Alaska and sources of trade for Seattle will ultimately be the development of the great bodies of low grade ore in and about the Juneau district. ln addition to the properties of the Treadwell mine and the near by mines of the Jackling ] interests, capitalists are now develop ing a new body of ore under the name of the Alaska Gold Belt. The ore in the Juneau district is practically inox- haustible and the amount of gold an- nually produced is reliant only upon the supply of machinery to reduce it..
 In the mine now being developed gold runs about S2.17 per ton of ore produced at a cost of D cents a ton. The combined product of the four great plants of the district within the next two years promises to produce profits ] of S75,OOO,OOO annually, as indicated by present plans for expansion. The pay rolls will probably reach Sl,OOO,OOO a month.
 The development of all of these ore bodies is in the hands of interests pos sessed of ample capital, without which these great riches could not be retriev ed. The plants now established assure the stability of the Juneau district. With the added impetus to placer and quartz mining, Alaska should ultimate . ly get into the class of the South Afri- can Rand as a gold producer--Seattle P-

Fiqht With an Owl

John George, a woodchopper from up the Klondike, who has been yisiting the city the last few days, recently had a desperate encounter with an owl and barely escaped with his life. George espied a fine large owls nest in the top of a tall poplar tree, and started to climb the tree, with the intention of getting the young owls. The mother owl flew off 100 yards and waited for her chance. She wisely waited until George was about 30 feet np tbe tree. Being deuuded of branches, tbe tree was difficult to scale, and Gorge hnd all he could do to keep his brogans wrapped about the trunk. While he was intent on hugging the tree he heard an awful swish in tbe air and glanced np to see the infuriated mother owl descending on him. The bird struck

Anthony Claims

It is reported that a deal for the antimouy claims in the Wheaton dis trict owned by Duncan Berback, How ard Cochran and Theo. Becker has been put through, by which the property passes into the hands of Vancouver syndicate which was represented by Mir. Whitfield, of the latter place, for merly an oldtime Yukoner who has been at Carcross for the past several weeks
 According to all reports the property in question is rich in antimony and at the present time the demand for that metal is greater than for many years, owing to the neces sity for it in the manufacture of war munitions, principally steel and bullets.
 The new owners of the property, it is said, will go to work at once mining antimony which will be hauled to the railroad at Robinson station in motor trucks which have already been or, dered and are DOW probably on the steamer enroute from Victoria. It is the intention of the new owners to put from fifteen to twenty miners at work, as it is desired to get as much of the metal as possible on the market before winter sets in.
 Tbe price paid for the property is said to be s2OOOO There are other antimouy holdings in the same district and further sales will likely be re- ported.-W hitehorse Star.

George in the shoulder with such a terrific blow bis coat was ripped and he was almost knocked from the tree,
 Several times the bird returned to the attack and struck him in the back and rent his clothing. His skypiece was sent with the winds and when John hit the earth, after sliding, ripping and tearing down the tree at lightning speed, he felt as though he had been in a contest with a buzzssw during bus. mess hours. Staggering to his feet, he beat a hasty retreat, wildly gesticulat- ing and keeping his hands in fighting attitude over bis head for fear the old bird would renew the attack,
 The big battle took place opposite the Hay Ranch. Later the little owls were secured when the tree was cut down and a fine photograph was taken of them.-Dawson News.

Dawson.-Dr. Alfred Thompson, member of parliament for Yukon, who has just returned from the session of parliament at Ottawa, tells of much interesting Legislation there which has a direct bearing on this part Of the North which pours millions annually in gold into Seattle. He says: "Times in Canada are affected greatly by the war, but they are improving gradually. In the East, where most of the mann featuring is done, many of the factories are now turning out munitions of war, and in some communities they are get ting work which they would not other wise get, thus helping to that extent. The crop prospects are good all over Canada and the acreage this year will be larger than ever before. ln the prairie provinces the wheat crop is the most promising, and as prices are high good harvest there will result in creating such a quantity af new wealth that it is bound to affect the whole country.

utilize the labors of men now idle.
 Government bonds for such develop ment would be snapped up eagerly. It's merely a case of bringing togeth- CT idle money and idle hands.
 Wary as private capital may be, a government bond always locks good to it.
 In such a case more of Our wheat and meat would be bought by our own 'Workingmen, instead of being sent abroad; many factories, instead of making military supplies, would be producing articles of necessity for our own people. We would be less of creditor nation, but would make greater progress toward domestic prosperity. -3 pad,
 We are selling everything to for eigners and are buying nothing of them. Yet business failures the past year were more numerous than the year before; bank clearings were less; the freight movements on our railroads only recently took slight increase; building is practically stag. nant; railway and ether develop mental construction has been at a standstill. All this speaks eloqucntly of the fact that capital has been i'll hiding, instead of working. 5

ADVERTISING aCHEAPENs

F;lAn advertising club in indianapolis Advances the position, that adver- Using does not increase the price of advertised goods, says the Pittsburg Dispatch. This is correct, when all athe factors of distribution; are taken into cdnsideration. As in 1ilah,ifac- tures,. a fixed magnitude, of plant is essential for certain expected out put. Wise management, efficient heip, careful supervision, watchful econ- omy, sometimes doubles production from the same resources. Under such administration, enlargeent of opera ton means chaapcning in the cost of product. This is business" in it's best sense. A share of the profit goes naturally to the consumer.
 Much the same thing is true as to the factors that govern advertising, considering it even from the stand point only of the man who pays the advertising bills. But the buyer posi- lively gains also, through oppcrtuni- ties to get what are called bargains and through chances to procure also other kinds and qualities of desired goods of which nothing would other wise have been known. Moreover, there are numerous special counter advantages available only through ad yertising publicity. Indeed. the fact is that the customer profits more iron, store news than the storekeeper him. self.
 The other aspect of the matter is from the, standpoint of the . erchant as determining the fact of cost. that advertising does not on the whole in crease the price of goods because of the big sales which it effects-sales not only of particular lines which
 may be specifically named, but of all sorts of stock in whose behalf no spa-
 clal drive had been made. Further.
 more, a business that has been large. 1 ly developed by efficient advertisine
 saves money quite sensibly by mar
 rowing the proportion of fiNec lcharges tc, gross business.
 | But all this is well enough under
 stood by those who have studied ant
 who know from experience tho bene fits of judiclous advertising. Thos; who do not know should give it a fai
 and intelligent trial.
