MINING GAME

The Mining and Scientific Press OF
San Francisco devotes considerable
space in recent edition to Alaska.
There are three leading editorials de-
voted to this territory. ]. L. McPher
son, manager Of the Alaska bureau
of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce,
contributes an interesting article on
"Alaska's Mineral Development Dur
ing 1915" an Occasional Correspon-
dent" writes on Mining Copper at
Kennecott, Alaska" and F. LIE Roi
-Ti-urmond is the author of an article
on Broad Pass, Alaska" All arti
cles are illustrated with half-tones or
maps.
Mr. Mcpherson notes with spirit
OF optimism the beginning Of Alaska's
career as a producer of platinum, ship
ments of that metal having been re-
ceived on the Outside from three
Widely-separated sections Of the ter
ritory-from near Ke;chikan, from the
upper Copper river and from Dime
creek, Seward peninsula. HE says
that in spite of labor shortage, high
cost everywhere, and the Enterprises
Of war, there was considerable devel-
orment in Alaska mining. He calls
particular attention to thel develop
ment of molybdenite by the Treadwell
company near Shakan, the beginning
OF tunnel to connect the workings
of the Kennecott and thu Mother
Lode, Willow creek production and
the erection of mill on the North
Midas Copper Company's pbperty on
the Kuskulana river The beginning
OF coal shipments from Be4ng river
coal fields, and the Increased coal
production of the Matanudka coun-
try, are regarded as favorable indi-
cations for the future.
An Occasionsl ,G6srjl scndent''
says the country in the vicinity OF
Kennecott offers plenty of induce
ments to investors and developers.
He says the Kennecott is making
brilliant success. It's ore is of the
highest known grades, and, notwith.
standing the high cost of labor and
production during the war, the cost
of production was only cents
pound. He sees wonderful future
for this company and the various
properties it is acquiring.
F. LIE Roi Thurmond describes the
Broad Pass country and gives a short
outline of its history, both of which
are hopeful. He secs a striking re-
semblance between the Alaska range
at Broad pass ard elsewhere and tue
Southeastern Alaska country.
The Mining and Scientific Press
says there is great opportunity in
Alaska for exploration work by young
men with some capital and mining

PROPOSED
MAIL SERVICE
FOR ALASKA

In recent dispatch to the Seattle
Times Jack Underwood, one of its
correspondents in Washington, D. c.,
says:
Airplane mail service between Sc
attic and ports in Southeastern Alaska
is one of the probabilities of the near
future.
1t is likely that the first expert
ments along this line will be made
next spring or summer, and If the
experiments prove successful In
Southeastern Alaska the service will
gradually be extended to Southwest
ern Alaska and probably to Nome and
1ditarod.
A number of conferences at which
plans for the project were discussed
have been held by postal officials, and
it may be said that it looks decidedly
encouraging for the installation of the
service within the next six months
Seaplanes will be used in the first
tests, if the present plans are consum-
mated and it is not unlikely that the
first ship to be used in the service
will be built in Seattle. There was
a disposition on the part of the pos
tai officials to obtain seaplenes from
the navy for this and other services,
but experiments have proven conclu-
sively that seaplanes and airplanes,
like other machinery, must be espe-
cially built for the purposes for which
they are intended to be used.
A battle airplane, it has been dis
covered, requires so much alteration
to fit it for mail-carrying purposes
that the expense is almost as great
as that of constructing a new ma
chine.
Would Meet Inadequacy
For some time the mail service in
Alaska has been inadequate. The first
class mail is carried by express and
second-class by freight. Under this
plan steamship operators naturally d.
rect their vessels to call only at those
places where sufficient freight is Of
fered, and many of the smaller towns
are left without mail service for
weeks at time. No mail has been
delivered at Kodiak or points to the
westward since October.
Governor Thomas Riggs, Jr., OF
Alaska has been working on the pro-
Ject 81 tffiplane or seaplanA mali sery-
ice to Alaska for some time, and yes
terday had long conference with E.
N. Colt, vice president of the Boeing
Airplane Company of Seattle ON the
matter. Another conference at which
postal officials will be present will
be held Friday.
A number of aviators in the service
here who were recruited in Alaska
say that one of the greatest obstacles
will be found in the Taku winds,
which blow with extreme violence dur
ing the winter months. Others, how
ever, claim that these winds will not
Interfere to any great extent with a
seaplane such as is used by the navy,
and which must stand a test against
a sixty-mile wind and against a forty
mile sea. .a
The original plan of development
OF the airplane service, according to
Information furnished at the postoff1ce
department, was to gradually extend
