LEDGE B|SMUTH DISCOVERED IN
 INTERIOR

That bismuth mining may eventual ly be one of the industries of interior Alaska is very evident from the fact that good sized ledge of rock, car rying the metal in commercial quan. titles, has been found in the Totalin ika country. The ledge is owned by Jack Leach and associates, who are now contemplating opening up the ground in the spring, with the idea of mining and shipping the ore.
 The extent of the ledge is not yet known. Where discovered it is about 15 inches in width, and that the ore carries bismuth in commercial quan. titles has been demonstrated by tests, which show it to be from 10 to 20 per cent pure.
 The commercial value of pure bis. muth is upwards of $500 to the ton. Mir Leach and associates therefore feel that if their ledge is extensive, and it's contents will be determined in the spring, they have fortune in sight
 Bismuth is one of the easiest me tals known to mine. It melts at a tenn perature of 26S 3-1O degrees centi- grade, and can therefore be smelted with wood fires. The plan of MT. Leach and his associates carries with 1t the construction of a smell shelter, where the rock will be smelted, thus obviating the necessity of shipping the ore outside and paying transpor, tation and smelting charges on it.
 As far as can be learned this IS the first considerable body of bis muth ore to be located in Alaska. Heretofore most of it used in the United States has been imported from the mines of Saxony and Bohemia, although the State of Connecticut has mines from which a considerable quantity of the ore has been taken. During the year 1911 approximately 86 tons of bismuth were imported into the United States at a cost of about $311 ,OOO.
 Bismuth is used chiefly as a con stituent of alloys and amalgams. Combined with other ingredients it is also used as medicine and in face powder and paints.

SALARIES LEGAL OFFICIALS |S
 ATTACKED

LONDON, Jan. 20. - The heavy toll of the lawyers is the text for many complaints in these days when econo- my is being largely practised by the rich, and urgently preached 10 the poor. Wherever members of the le- gal profession are employed by the government in positions involving professional practice their financial rewards are far beyond the scale of those received by other government officials, however difficult, dangerous or brilliant may be the service of the less fortunate branches of officialdom.
 The three highest legal officials of the government, and a considerable body of judges, draw larger salaries than the prime minister of Great Bri- tain. The highest officers of the navy and army. whose duties often involve physical hardships and the risk of death, are poorly paid in com parisOn with those who represent the government in the courts. Today the people are beginning to ask why this should be, and members of the demo- cracy in politics as well as laboring men are asking the question ins1stent- ly. It has become a burning topic with the Democratic organs of the press. Why should the lord chancel- Tor, whose duties are largely ornamen tai, be paid more than five times the stipend Admiral Jellico- receives, Is a frequent query.
 The office of lord chancellor is the most shining target for attack. That office is now costing the government $125,000 year. It commands a salary of $50.O00 and a pension of $25,000. Lord Buckmaster is drawing the sal ary, and three living predecessors, Lords Halsbury, Loreburn and Hal dane, are receiving pensions.

HAVE ORGANIZED ID HELP
 ALASKA

There is a town in Washington well known to Alaskans because it is now the home of many who formerly resid- ed in Alaska. Wenatchee is working for the interests of the territory and the Wenatchee Commercial Club has started a state wide movement, which can best be explained by the article appearing in the Wenatchee World of recent date:
 The Wenatchee Commercial Club Alaska Development committee is starting work with a vim. While all recognize that the object of the com mittee working for the opening of Alaska to settlement through the building of railroads and remedial legislation is more or less a selfish one, because it means added outlet for Wenatchee products. yet it Is something which should have been done years ago. Wenatchee has considerable population of former Alaskans, many of them having come out of that country on account of the unjust laws. These men, with Sec retary Soderling, initiated the move to band the commercial bodies and the. trade organizations of the state into an Alaska development league. with the hope of creating a sentiment fav- orable to more just laws and also for the purpose of inducing immigration to Alaska. When thss Is done. Alaska can easily sustain an immense popu lation and afford a market for a great portion of the products of the Wen- atchee valley"

Tabers left arm pitching was working
well and he famed out his opponents
quite frequently. Dempsey was a sure
first base man and did not allow any
man to get by him with ease. At the
bat, he also proved the big gun. The
high school was weak, however, in the
catcher's position and this proved
costly to them several times during
the game.
On the whole, however, the game
showed that the high school has the
makings of good team this year and
if men can be developed as well in
this line as they were in the basket
ball season, the inter-class contests.
which will come off next month, will
prove of great interest. Severa, of the
schools best men were not in suits
last night, either, so this item must
likewise be considered 1t Is expected
that the star men for the senior team
this year will be Ackley. Anderson,
James and Al Taber. The juniors will
be lucky with Dempsey and will also
have several others, among them
Wilson and Kuehl. The sophomores
have a good man in Ed Taber and
have some others whom they expect
to spring and the freshman prospects
will include Dopp and Wilson.

A CADDYLESS BAG
In Keeping With Increased Price
Golf Supplies John ID. Cady Finds
Way of Saving Money.

Coincident with the possible in
crease in the price of golf balls be-
cause of the European war and with
rumors that clubs may cost more be-
fore the summer is out comes the
news Of a possible saving for golf
players. John D. Cady of Moline,
president of the Western Golf associa-
ton in 1912 and 1913 and winner of
the trans Mississippi championship in
1914, has invented a caddyless bag.
The principle is similar to a two
wheeled truck. The bag rests thereon
at an angle of about As degrees, so
that the golfer may reach his clubs
without stopping. The bag is pulled
about the field behind the player and
has collapsible legs to keep it erect
when not in motion.
