Those who are opposing all proposals
 for military preparedness and who
 cling to the fatal delusion that an army lean be improved and soldiers trained
 after a war has broken out are making
 much of some remarks addressed by General Wood to the business men on Che breaking up of their recent camp
 at Plattsburg. The general express
 ed himself as delighted and astonish-
 ed at the progress which they had
 made. and went on:
 You have progressed to point where, ! if necessary. you could take squad or company of men and drill them in the school of the soldier and whip 1 them into shape
 If these men could be prepared for the work of a noncommissioned officer or a subaltern commissioned officer in the short period of a month, why could tune. There are many answers. In lae first place, the men who assem- bled at Plattsburg were exceptional men; men of highly trained intelli- gence of quick perceptions, trained by considerable experience of various kinds, who had achieved success in many different fields; who had great facility in acquiring and assimilating and who had developed executive force in other pursuit.
 Further. they took up the work with devoted their trained fla culties 10 it with concentration, and were on the job all of their waking hours. As a result, and very much to the surprise of Gen. Wood, it de- veloped that men of this high order of of affairs who had achieved distinction-by deVoting their entire attention enthusiastically to the work for a solid month, had reached tent to train a bunch of raw recruits in the simple elements of drill, so that they could be taken out of the awk- ward squad and take their places in the company line. IL is long, long time after the recruit leaves the awk- ward squad before he becomes a real soldier. There is a long. long interval between the length of time which it would take for men like those at
 Plattsburg to learn the bare rudi- ments of soldering and the length of time which it would take an average punch of raw recruits to do the same.

City Official Paper
NOME, ALASKA, OCT. 16, 1915.

The announcement from the customs house that there Is an excellent pros pect that the gold production of the season will probably equal, if not ex- cell that of 1914 is gratifying news. As stated by the customs collector, MT Reed, the total shipments for the sea- son including the sum sent out on the last trip of the Victoria, were but little more than S175,000 behind those of the previous year. This indicates nothing less than that the gold pro- duction of the district is steadily in creasing, despite all hindrances and drawbacks. The summer of 1914, 1t will be remembered, was a fair aver age season with but a portion of the unfavorable conditions that have marked the season now drawing to close. There was a fair amount of water and the period of operation was longer continued than during the pres ent year which has been backward in every degree. In addition there were number of dredges operating which have been idle during the whole or part of the present summer. The sum- mer of 1914 was more favorable in every way and the gold product should have greatly excelled that of the sea son just passed. There was more water, more labor employed and more extensive operations. The season of 1915 will go down in history as one of the dullest from a mining point of view that has occurred for several years Activities throughout the min ing period were restricted by lack of water, there was a scant field for labor, as evidenced by more idle men than ever before and nearly one-fourth of the dredges, the most important factors in gold production, were closed down for one reason and another dur
 ing the greater part of the summer
 In view of these untoward conditions
 the prospect, amounting almost to certainty that the gold product will be equal to if not greater than last
 year, can be taken as positive assur- ance that the mineral output Is not only not falling off but Is actually be-

That it will pro- duce more money than the legislature appropriated Is the belief of both MT. Cobb and Territorial Treaurer Wal stein G. Smith. MT. Cobb thinks the territorial income from taxes will amount this year to $200,O0 or $225,00O which will probably be from s5O,0OO to $75,O0 in excess of the expenditures under the appropriation bills. While MT. Smith said that he had made no attempt to make any estimate, he thought it likely that MT. Cobb's fig ures are not far out of the way Juneau Empire.

Game warden report a peculiar fea-

 in most other portions of Alaska and
 especially along the Panama river they have but one calf The Kantishna is a paradise for moose and wild animals 0 fall kinds for it is seldom visited bS hunters, ana the few white men and Indians in there kill only for their own consumption, which hardly makes
 an impression on the immense num- bers of game animals.
