A discovery which may have the ef- feet of bringing Seward into the lime light in the copper world was made on the day before yesterday by Frank Skeen and Charley Emsweiler over at Porcupine bay. Some specimens of the ore were brought to town by the discoverers and are extraordinarily rich. These specimens were not taken from the ledge itself but were found imemdiately beneath the ledge on shelves. They carry over thirty per cent copper and the ore is the same class as the ore at Latouche which, however, carries only about sixteen per cent at the best. The ledge dis covered by Messrs. Skeen and Ems weller is believed to be the ledge which Likes was supposed to have dis covered but it is evident that Likes only found stains and float under the real ledge and did not find the ledge itself. The ledge is located behind a glacier and can be seen up above but is in position where it cannot be reached without some work being done. The discoverers figure it is about twenty feet wide and they can trace it distinctly for a hundred feet or so from below. The prospectors took a ladder along but even with this aid they were unable to reach the spot exactly although they found plenty of pieces of float below on shelves of the steep incline. This is

WHAT JUNEAU SAID
 ABOUT OUR BALL GAME
(From Juneau Empire)

There is no place where there arc Americans but that politics, business, wars and rumors of wars are not com pelled to take back seats when two good baseball teams and a close series of games are nearby. Passengers on the Alameda say that when the yes sel arrived at Seward with a full list cs tourists there was no one on the wharf to take the vessels lines when they were thrown ashore. Everybody was at the ball game watching Sew ard win the third and deciding game of a hotly contested series from An chorage-the hated rival. The cir cumstances that the series stood two games to one and that the total scores in the three games were Seward 10, Anchorage 9, fully explains the lack of interest in the Alameda, her tour ists and business. There was no other place on earth for those Seward Americans than at that baseball field.
 ,e championship of Kenai Peninsula had to be settled, and that absolutely required the presence of the pOpulace. And, let it be said in behalf of their red blood there was none on the Ala meda who did not understand the nice ties of the situation and appreciate them fully.

WHAT THE P. I. SAID
 ABOUT JOHN BALLAINE

Some time ago the Gateway pulp lished a confusing cable message about an editorial in the Seattle Post Inteligencer from which it was diff cult to get meaning. The P.-L of August 20 has now arrived and the editorial in question is in evidence. 1t can hardly be called an editorial that would please Alaskans. It gives ali the credit for the government railroad to its own people out there, but fol- lowing, for curiosity's satisfaction, is what it says about John F.. Ballaine:
 "Now an aspirant for congress, a town lot promoter of Seward, who stands to profit handsomely by the AL askan development Uncle Sam is en- gagged in, bulges into the equation with the preposterous claim and pre- tense that he carried the project through and that but for him and "my campaign"-even though Jones and Poindexter, Humphrey, Johnson, La Toilette, Bryan and Falconer were zealously on guard and Secretary Lane watching every phase of the leg islation-everything would have been lost and moreover, and more prepost- erous still, that even now, unless he be sent to congress, the government of the United States, whether Republi- can or Democratic, may call halt to the railroad building, charging off the millions already spent and forthwith de liver Alaska over, bag and baggage, to the Guggenheims, the Morgans, the George w. Perkinses and other robber barons ever iniquitously seek ing whom they may devour!
 "And with brazen effrontery he placards the town to this effect and buys space in newspapers to advance his fake propaganda.
 Seattle has a dozen candidates for congress, more or less. Any one Of them, if elected, can be depended up on to stand up for Alaska and give instant battle to any octopus that may happen to show its ugly head in men ace of Alaskan development. Only one candidate, however, has Alaska town lots for sale and he, by reason of this selfish interest involved in his candidacy and the imaginary bugaboo he has deceitfully conjured up, and the money he is spending in vain at tempt to bamboozle an intelligent electorate, is clearly the least fitted of the lot 70 serve in congress.

FLFYS DAUGHTER
 DIES OF SHOCK
Sheriff Who Was Nearly Lynched
 Now Suffers Another Torture.

LIMA, Ohio, Sept, 1.-Sherifr EIey who was almost hanged Wednesday by mob because he saved negro prisoner has now added to his tor lures a heart pang. On returning to his home he found that his litt'e daughter had fallen dead of shock caused by the fright when the mob entered the jail seeking the life of Charles Daniels, the negro who had been arrested for an assault on a woman and whom Eley as sheriff had spirited away to a place of safety. In addition ta the death of the sheri- ifs little daughter Mrs. Eley's sister is in a serious condition as the result of being assaulted and abused by the mob and her death may occur at any moment. Some of the people of the state are calling for the arrest and punishment of the leaders of the mob whom some of the newspapers are describing as cowardly murdcIers. The federal authorities will probably take hand as Eley was doing only his duty when wounded and when a moose was placed around his neck. The occurrence has created tremen- dous furore all over the country.

BULGARIA DECLAREs WAR

SALONIKA, Sept Lit is officially announced that Bulgaria declared war on Romania today. The most tereStng question being discussed amongst the peo- pie of the various natonaes in Saonka is the relative merits of the ROumanian and Bulgarian armies. It is as sumed that Bulgaria has nearly quarter of million men engaged on the eekSerbianacedonan fronts but she will have much again direct against the Roumanians in the north while Romana will have to employ large part of her army against Austria The opinion is that the Roanians and Bugarians face each other about on equal footing except that the Bulgarian army has had the advantage of the experience gained in former wars. On the other hand Roumania has population which is about once and half the size of that of Bulgaria which has about four millions.
