WANT BAN LIFTED

Immigration societies of Japan are advocating several notifications of the regulations now governing Japanese immigration to the United States and other countries. One change asked is the extention from a year and half to three years of the period allowed for the return to the United States of Japanese who have gone to the homeland for visit. It is said that there are now in Japan several thousand Jap anese who cannot return to Ameri- can soil because they have over- stayed the time limit
 Another change proposed is to permit Japanese picture brides to obtain passports for the United States immediately after their mar riage has been reported to the American authorities. At present a picture bride must wait in Japan six months before she can leave to join the man she married by mail.

ALASKA SOLDIER
 ID RETURN SOON

Willis Nicely, son of Mrs. Mar garet Nicely, of Nenana, at present with Ambulance Co. 25O, 18th Sani- tary Train, at Camp Lewis, writing to his mother recently, states that he expects to be discharged from the army very soon.
 He says that he will take ship for the North immediately after he has been discharged and will head straight for Nenana. He will prob- ably come in by way of the Broad Pass trail.
 The commanding officer of the ambulance corp of which Willis is member sent the following letter to Mrs. Nicely:
 Camp Lewis, Jan. 21, 1919 Mrs. Margaret Nicely,
 Nenana, Alaska.
 MY DedI LNlCcly
 ''In few days your soldier will receive his honorable discharge and start for home.
 "He is bringing back many fine qualities of body and mind which he has acquired or developed in the military service. The army has done everything it could do to make him strong, fine, self-reliant, yet 
 "You have been an important member of that great army of en- couragement and enthusiasm which helped to make him and us all better soldiers. You can now be a great help in keeping alive the good qualities he is bringing back from the army, in making him as good citizen as he has been a good soldier.
 His fare and necessary expenses to point of induction will be paid by the government. He will re- ceive all pay due him. He may if he wishes, wear his uniform for four months, from the date of his discharge. The government will also allow him to keep up for the bene- fit of his family, his insurance at the very low rate he is now paying.
 "His return to civil life will bring new problems for you both to solve. The qualities he brings back will help you now as your encourage ment helped him while he was away and in your hands and his rests the future of our country.
 "As his commanding officer I am proud of him. He has done his duty well. I and his comrades will bid him goodbye with deep regret and wish him every success after he returns home-that spot in every mans heart no other place can fill.
 "Yours sincerely,
 w. V. CHALMERS-FRANCIS,
 Capt. M. c. Comdg."

A REAL AID

Of the several suggestions made relative to securing government aid for prospectors, as a means of stimu lating the search for placer gold and other valuable minerals in the territory of Alaska, the proposition put forward by Engineer in Charge Freak D. Browne, of the Alaskan Engineering commission, seems to the News to be the one most cer- tain of accomplishing the desired results Mr Browne's suggestion was not intended as substitute for other movements already started, and it is not his desire to interfere in any way with those plans. He merely points the way to new source of aida very logical source.
 Mir. Browne believes that the min eral branch of the federal govern ment should render to the pros pectors and miners of the territory the same sort of aid that is rendered to the farmers by the governments agricultural experiment stations. His plan, as outlined to the chair man of the Alaskan Engineering commission, is to have the mining bureau send out geological and min eral experts to give the various dis tricts mot only thorough mineral surveys, but to further establish, perhaps, bureaus nearby where these researches may be compiled, and if possible where lectures can be given and details presented to prospectors and others ~who are able and willing to go into the country and make a search for mineral"
 These men, in the opinion of MT. Browne, could do vast amount of good in properly presenting the resources of the country to those who, with little resources, are will ing to take long chances The pres ent trouble is, he points out, there are many who do not know mineral ores when they see them.
 Mir. Browne believes that Alaska's development must be chiefly along mineral lines and that "there is no better way to encourage this de- velopment and make Alaska worth while, than to have development experts come and report to the people just what they find, and per haps help in every way possible the bringing of these ores to the smelter.'
 Government geologists already have rendered the territory valuable assistance, and the establishment at Fairbanks of a branch of the Blu reau of Mines also is step toward greater development; but the activl- ties of the government should not be permitted to stop there. There should be experts available to in- vestigate every district and to rend- CT practical aid to the men engaged in the search for hidden treasure to inform them where to look fol certain ores, how to know the ore when they encounter it, how best to go about development and whether or not the search for certain min' erals is worth while.
 There are countless ways in which Alaskan prospectors could be assist ed by such experts, at small cos' to tLe go, arnment and with inestl snable benefit to the territory. And the plan should receive the suppor' ut every section of the country each f W. ich would share in the incrs ased development that woulc resu'

the cellarette, and caught the clink
of glasses. l could hear an occas-

were saying. Tonko went in with
chopped ice, and I heard Neil tell him
they should not need him again. Then,
just as the door closed, he said:
do you mean to tell me, Frederick,
that you refuse to help me?"
So Mr.. Frederick was one of the
men, and he had refused to help Neil.
In what? Was it someone else who,
like Scott, wanted to get rid of what
Neil had sold him? Was someone
again threatening Neil? I must know,
l would know. I put out the lights
and crept to the library door. Now
that Tonko was dismissed for the night
there was little danger of the SER
wants seeing me. But if Neil or one
of those men should open the door,
discovery was certain. Yet / deter

l crouched low, little to one side
of the door,-the opposite side to
which it opened. Yet l soon was able
to distinguish the speaker and to fol-
low the conversation to a certain ex-
tent. They all spoke loudly, as if ex-
cited, sometimes angrily.

The world is full of suckers. If l

was trying to justify himself.
"The someone else will get caught,

Then the other mantle one they

I did as I had planned, Neil only
laughed at me for my pains.
"Tonko hasn't touched it." he de-
clared.
But you-you only opened that bot
tie last night. You haven't-you-
couldn't drink all that in one evening ?'
We'll, I did! So stop your fussing.

I saw that Neil was disturbed. He
had not been drinking, but he looked
rather wild-eyed and not at all like
himself. I laid it to the amount he
had drunk the night before, and tried
to soothe him by saying l was afraid
it would make him ill., But he paid no
attention to my half-hearted apology
for my fault-inding, and asked me to
hurry dinner.
A couple of men are coming up here
after dinner to talk business" he told
men when I asked him if he was going
out.
He ate scarcely anything, but drank
several cups of strong coffee. He had
also mixed himself a cocktail before

KEEPING AT IT.

The following from the Prescott
Journal Miner shows that mine man
ayers in Arizona are following the
same policy that is practiced by the
very few large copper companies in
New Mexico.
The copper collapse has closed
only the Metcalf and shannon mines
at Clifton, and the Jerome, which was
closed when the men refused reduced
wages, is still idle. Several have re-
duced forces, by laying off unmarried
employees, and are keeping men who
have homes. Some companies are
producing at cost greater than the
present price of metal
The Copper Queen of Phelps
Dodge, at Bisbee, is doing much de.
velopment work in order to retain en-
ployes. though from an economic and
financial point of view this is not jus
titled under present condition. Many
companies could save money by clos
ing down, but this would work hard
ship upon miners who have been en-.
couraged to acquire homes ana would
throw many out of employment, add
