WORLD WIDE DEMAND FOR COPPER SENDS
 PRICE UP \ NOTCH

New York, Feb. 8 -- The unpre- cedeated demand for copper metal from foreign and domestic sources has resulted in an advance in the quotation for delivery in the sec oud quarter of the year. It is re ported that price of 27 cents a pound wag offered for March de livery and rumors were current that 80 cents were bid for delivery in February, which, however, could not be confirmed. Not since March, 1907, has copper been so high. The market has been bare of available supplies for almost three months. All the leading producers are booked to the eN- tent of their output well into the last hals of the year and it is free ly predicted that the demand will increase.

torneys, doctors and automobiles. But very few payments, or even returns, have been made by the mining industry. Many operators who are known to have made large profits, have so far not only failed to pay their taxes, but have ig- nored all letters sent from this off, flee demanding a compliance with the law.
 It has so far been the policy of the territorial officers to ad- minister the law in Q spirit of fair ness and liberality. All who in gcod faith desired to test the law were given the opportunity to do so, without being penalized, and those who desired to settle their debts to the territory were allowed to do so, by paying the amount of the taxes and accrued interest. The policy of fairness to all will bs continued. But 1t Is intended to exact penalties hereafter from all those who have persisteRtly ig- nOred the law and refused com Dliance with it's provisions.
 In some sections there appears to be an impression that the laws passed by the people of Alaska through their legh5lature arc mere jokes, and that they can be 5afe- ly ignored. Steps will shortly be taken to correct this view.
 While with the incomplete data now on hand no very definite statemCn- can be made as to the amount of taxes stiu due the territory, yet there is enough to safely say that if the revenue laws cf the territory are sustained by the court of last resort the treasury will have . cash balance OH hand when the next legislature meets cf not less than $250,0O0.OO, It may exceed $3OO,OOO.OO.
