1T F|C|ALS TO HOLD INQUEST

Adyices received in town from Chatanika are to the effect that Commissioner Samuel K Weiss and Deputy Marshal Pete McMullen left the creek town Tuesday for the MCManus divide, where the commis sioner will hold an inquest over the remains Of the unknown man which were found there in August. The inquest was not held before this time chiefly on account of the illness of Commissioner Weiss, in whose jurisdiction the remains were found but partly on account of the fact that travelling in the late sum- mer was very bad. The remains have been hanging in a sack in tree since the time that they were discovered the authorities having or dered that some disposition of them be made to keep them from being molested.

HANDSOME ORE FROM TeIKHeLL

Probably the handsomest specI mens of gold quartz ever exhibited m Valdez were those brought m bl Nick Meckem from his recent lind near Teikhel The specimens are almost pure gold. with just enough white quartz to offset the yellow metal to advantage.
 NIT. Meckem states that the new lind IS but fifty or sixty feet from tbe mouth of the tunnel on the claims he has been working for the mast two years So far as known, this new discovery has been cover ed by snow for many years. This ,rar Mir. Meckem says. the snow has melted back farther than he ever saw il, and, prompted by curl osity. he went over to look at the ground thus uncovered Finding traces of quartz. he dug away some Ol the OYeTburden, ana tht SlEH' which met his eyes when he got down to the solid rock was electri- t,lng. The bright yellow metal stood .orth big as house to Niek's eyes, aRd he straightway proceeded to gather in a few specimens So plen- ufullv is the gold distributed through the rock that it is not stretchlhR t any to place the values at $2on,- 900 to s250.000 per ton, and MT. Meckem believes he can take out " nice little sum by banning the erod- ed rock lying along the vein, and when he returns to the property, within a day or two. will take with him the necessary pan to perform this work.
 It is not known how extensive thiS ore body Is, as but little work h. been done When he returns he VIII strip the lead as far as possible to de termine the extent of the pay chute.

WINTER WAS
 LATE IN 1911

According to an old sourdough. the river did not close to navigation here in 1911 until well toward the middle of November. He says that a boat left here for Ruby on Novem Der 5. and al that time there was no ice in the Panama. The trip to Ruby was made in four days. and the boat was not bothered in the least by the ice. As matter of fact. no ice appeared in the river for three or four days.
 Many have thought that this Is the latest season that the river has been open. but to equal the record of 1911 the freezeup will have to hold off for few days longer. As flecks of ice are now appearing in the Cinema river the chances are that the record will not be broken this season.

.SUTHERLAND'S PRESS AGENT IS USING CANNON
IS NOW ENGAGED IN CASTING SHRAPNEl INTO THE
 ENEMY'S CAMP.

On September l2, under the caption of Tom McGowan Coming Home. the Evening Hopper contained the following tribute to it's patron saint:
 Aside from sentimental reasons and old acquaintance. Dawson and its future only affects Mir. McGowan by it's connection with the affairs of his company, the Northern Conner. cial company. That fact was never stated in the campaign that had Lawson gone dry" the Northern Commercial company would have been one Of those Dawson business houses which would have been com pelled to close it's doors. for lack of business which would follow prohbi- ton. Tom was fighting for his com pany's existence, and for nothing else. not being willing to accept a cent for his work or efforts against the small-town movement of the Pro against almost or seemingly impossi- ble odds was a victory worth while in the North"
 Isn't that rich? Do you catch the full significance of that statement? The doors Of the N. C. Co. in Daw- son would be closed if the Drys won. But Tom didn't say anything before election Why? Was he afraid that the oldtimers up there would sacri- flee even their whiskey -and-sodas if such a result could be achieved ? But, judging by the closeness of the vote, It must have leaked prob ably through that LEAKY PEN he took with him.
 Now We gather from the above item that the sick man of Fair banks" also wants to go to Juneau to fight for the existence of his com pany" without a cent for his work. although he is not an amateur leg islator" like the rest of the bunch, according to his man Friday. We entirely agree to that, for an anna teur is one who pursues vocation without regard to remuneration or emolument. and that is not much in Toms line.
 We also noticed in the Hopper last evening that Senator Suther- land stands for nothing in which Fairbanks is interested That is in of mines which our delegate secured for us and which Senator Sulzer attempted to steal at the last ses- sion? Senator Sutherland did some effective work then for a couple of strenuous hours, and we cannot re- call that he has been even thanked for it. On the 29th day of March, 1915, Sen. Sulzer introduced me morial asking congress to establish the school of mines provided for in H. R. soand-so (giving the number of the bill which established a school of mines at Fairbanks) depending, no doubt, upon the ignorance of the other members in regard to what this bill referred to, it having passed con gress only twenty-siX days before. But he found the senators from the Fourth division wide awake, and his memorial was amended to read mine experimental stations" instead of school of mines. Still. when Sen. SulZer was here he was received with open arms, while the Old Reliable Dan was scarcely noticed Such is gratitude-Advt

Collegiate football virtually was in full swing throughout the west to- day, with coaches still busily en- gagged in sitting players and smooth ing plays for the bigger games of the near future. Practice games thus far have given the bleachers no particularly scintillating stars whose names they might bracket in their yells.
 The California varsity continues to devote much of its practice time to starting plays, observers having commented much on the peculiar sys- tenn evolved. Using. it is said. a starting signal such as adopted by the Harvard varsity, the Bears have evolved various fake maneuvers de- signed to give opponents considerable trouble in timing their attack. In spite of the work of Coaches Smith, Zeigler and Mahan. the tackling of the Bears first squad has come In for criticism.
 They have downed their opponents consistently thus far. however, hay ing prevented two strong club teams from scoring on them.

\ Oklahoma CITY, NOV l7--lnterest o.
members Of the lower house Of the
coming legislature is already active in
the matter OF organization OF the
house The speakership is subject OF
much comment and alignments are
beginning to be made up against the
coming session, which viii begin the
tirst Tuesday after the first Monday
IN January which will be the second
day IN the month
Most frequently mentioned as a
probable selection for speaker ii Paul
Nesbitt Of McAlester. He has had
much experience in legislation of OK
lahoma. His leadership in behalf of
democratic measures has been active
and aggressive, In the last leglsla
turo Mr. Nesbitt was friend of the
administration throughout, and his
achievements at that time led to fore
casts that he would be formidable
candidate for the speakership in the
sixth legislature. Mr. Nesbitt is ac-
tive at this time as Oklahoma presi-
dent OF the Jefferson highway pro-
Ject and has become one of the most
widely known protagonists Of improy-
ed highways TO be found in this state
While no definite announcement Of
candidacy has been made by Mr.
Nesbitt, it is taken as fact that he
will be one Of the men to be reckoned
with in the speakership contest.
Candidate From West Side.
ON the west side of the state is
Everett Petry, young man with a
fine set Of qualifications for the place,
and with the backing it is understood,
of many Of the Democrats in the legis-
lature from that section of the state.
The shrot grass country has been very
loyal to the Democratic party this
year eliminating all the Socialist
members who were from that part of
the state increasing the Democratic
majorities all along the line. This |
representative from the short grass /
region who is much discussed and /
whose availability and fitness is TO be .
presented in the house has not had 1
experience in the legislature ,as has
Mr. Nesbitt, but he is said to be most Il
tit for the place, being a lawyer of 4
ability and having been educated for
public life.
Some leading Democrats OF the
short grass country assert that they
will push Mr. Petry for the speaker
ship and their claim for the place will
be based upon the showing that has
been made by the short grass country
md upon the fact that their country
las not been honored in the past with
his leading position in the legisla
ure

Others have been mentioned for the Il

whose names are heard as Robert
