LAST week the Mesaba Ore at
Hibbing began its twenty-third
year of existence. We sincerely
hope that Editor Atkinson will
pardon the word existence" as it
is no such thing and the Ore has
always been in the foremost ranks
of the live ones. Here's hoping
that the old man will continue in
the influential manner he has
acquired for years to come and
that his pen with its distinctively
peculiar gift of language will lose
none of its telling effect.

SCIENTIST SAYS DREW PLANSOF
 SUBMARINE

Prof. Herschel Parker, the scientist who has twice tried to scale Mount Mckinley in Alaska, without success, arrived in Seattle from New York. He is en route to Seward, where he will spend the coming summer prospecting in the interests of eastern capitalists.
 Prof. Parker became interested in mining during his previous trip to Alaska. and discovered number of leads in the Seward district, which are now under development and give promise of becoming producing mines The building of the government rail road in Alaska, he says, has served to attract the attention of capitalists to the mineral resources of the north. and he predicts that in future there will no shortage of capital for the development of the industries of the territory.
 IL IS not geheIdlly kho"h tldI Iiol' Parker, in addition to being an eX- plorer, has several inventions to his credit. He claims to have drawn the plans for the submarine for which Henry Ford took credit, but states that he will take no action against the Detroit manufacturer if the nation is to get the benefit of the discovery.

CANNER|ES HAD A B|C PACK
 IN 1875

The twenty-third annual report of the Alaska Packers Association, for 1915, is at hand. The capitalization of the company remains the same. viz: $7.50000O authorized capital. di- vided into 75,OO0 shares Of the value of $100 each. The present issue is 57,5OS shares. leaving 17.492 shares in the treasury.
 The association carries its own in smance on buildings, wharves. ma chinery, equipments, furniture and on products in the course of manufac- ture and finished in it's own plants; also on all floating property and on cargoes of box shocks, lumber and coal. All up and down general car goes are insured at full value, and salmon and merchandise stored in warehouses in San Francisco at about one-half of their value. At the close of 1914 the insurance fund showed credit of $2,OO4, ,93147, and carried $501 .497.S5. The amounts charged for losses and expenses aggregate $119.- 199.74. The fund now amounts to $2,- 180, ,425, nearly all of which is invest ed in bonds.
 The association owns sixteen can neries in Alaska and Puget Sound, To cated at the following places: Alas. ka-Nushagak ?, Kvichak 2. Naknek 8. Egegak I, Chignik 1, Alitak l, Karluk 1, Cook Inlet l, Fort Wrangel l, LOT ing, 1; Puget Sound--S -Semiahmoo. 1, Anacortes 1.
 The pack for the 1915 season was as follows:
 sockeye 9,461 cases, red 67IO74 cases, king 25,931 cases. coho 939 cases, pink 24O.427 cases, chum 5O,- POS cases; total 1,O24,O4O cases. Salt salmon 327 barrels.
 During 1915 the general markets for canned salmon have been very irregular The stupendous war has disarranged the trade, the transpor- tation and the finances of the world Lack of transportation facilities, al- most prohibitive freight and exchange rates, together with he closing of the Panama canal. have seriously inter fered with the prompt and economic distribution of the pack Contrary to general impression none of the gov ernments of the warning nations have purchased canned salmon in large quantities. Only to Australasia have the salmon shipments been made nor mally and in usual quantities.
 During the year 1915 $216OOO worth of the bonds of the association were redeemed and cancelled, reducing the bonded indebtedness to $55S,OOO
 The insurance fund was increased $3S2, ,29811.
 The profits for 1915 were $559,- i 299.O4.
 Quarterly dividends of $50 per share have been paid during 1915
