Tom Ward, the well known Koug .lrok miner, says that the mining sea- son in the kougarok has been an ex- ceptionally good one, all of the num- erous operators apparently doing right we'll. The dredges operated with good success and experienced few delays or breakdowns. The water supply has been ample during the season and the open cut miners, generally speaking, handled some- thing more than the usual quantity of paydirt. Being one of the largest owners of copper properties on the peninsula, Mir, Ward is naturally op- t;mistic over the copper outlook and announces that the copper prospects of the district are looking better all the time. Little development has oc- cured during the present summer but additional work IS contemplated between now and spring on the more prominent properties owned by him. self and others.
 Mir. Ward intends to leave for the outside shortly and will probably confer with Andrew J. Stone, pro- 'moter of the Sawtooth power plant project, who has displayed close in - terest in the Ward copper properties.

Kerensky, as premier minister of war

cost of war, though it will increase
the financial burden which the country
is finding it necessary to carry. 1t is
stated in Washington dispatches that
'the secretary made no recommends
dation as to what part of the total
should be raised by taxes and what
part by bond issues or other credits.
1t was reported, however, that the
treasury department would favor rails
ing $1,OO0,O00,000 more than had been
planned in taxes, making the tax bill
total $2,670 100000.
1t is, perhaps. no more than an in
teresting co incidence that on the very
day the secretary of the United States
treasury department submitted his new
financial estimates to the senate, the
chancellor of the exchequer in the
British house of commons asked for a
new war credit of 65O,000,0O0 pounds,
Or more than three billion dollars. The
chancellor announced that the total
Of British war credits now stands at s.
1872, 100000 pounds, or more than TWEEN,
ty-five and half billion dollars.
Great Britain's total advances to her
allies and dominions have reached a
total of 25,0OO,00o pounds. Part of
the increased army expenditure, the
chancellor of the Exchequer explained
yesterday, was due to the fact thae
/ Great Britain had made greater pay
ments to India for service rendered in
connection with the war. There was
also an increased expenditure for air
planes. Another increase in army ex-
penditure, he noted, was due to the
fact that the casualties at the front
had been lower than last year. The
Let daily increase in war expenditure
aside from loans to the allies, and al
! lowing for expenditure. which subse-
lquently would be paid, continued the
chancellor, was 100000 pounds. 1t was
!, evident, he went on, that the budget
estimate would be largely exceeded
mainly on account of advance to Grea,
Britains allies.

LET WELL ENOUGH ALONE.

Unless the action of the ways and
means committee is a decidedly mac
curate barometer of the sentiment of
the House of Representatives in the
General Assembly, the attempt to re-
peal the present tax equalization law is
doomed to prove abortive. The vote of
20 to II by which the committee adj
versely reported the repeal bill may
safely be taken to indicate a desire on
the part of the lower branch of the
Legislature to allow the present sta
.tute to stand unmolested for time at
least, until some better means of ad-
justing the situation has been devised.
The simple fact that no remedial
measures were proposed by the re-
peal advocates undoubtedly had more
than anything else to do with the ad-
verse report by the ways and means
committee. The attempt at repeal is
based simply on the claim that the
present method of tax equalization is
inefficient, although no improvement is
suggested The reversion to the old
system is, therefore, the only alterna-
tive, and in view of this fact, the great
majority of the ways and means COM
mittee evidently feels that the pro-
posed repeal would mark step back
ward
The local equalization boards, oper-
ating under the present law, have this
year alone added many millions of
dollars to the tax digests of the various
counties and although it is alleged by
these who would repeal the existing
statute that the expense of maintain
ing the equalization boards is too great
in proportion to the value of the work
accomplished, the figures submitted
from the state treasurer's Office fail to
bear out this contention.
| Governor Dorsey is consistently ad-
Ivocating the retention of the tax equal
iZation law until some means can be
discovered of more efficiently admins
ltering the matter. He, along with what
/ is conceded to be good majority in
the legislature, does not believe in
going back to an obsolete method on
account of the fact that the existing
mode of procedure does not fulfill the
needs of the situation in every de-
tail.
1t were far better to allow the taA
equalization law to remain on the sta.
tute books and have commission ap
pointed to study the methods of Other
states, with the idea of suggesting {
more efficient system than to wipe thu
slate clean and start back where tn,
commonwealth found itself in the mat
ter of tax returns in the old hit-or
miss days.
