 A most unfortunate effect of the
 decline in gold, especially in placer mining, is the discouragement of the procpector. Though many prospectors devote their attention to the search for copper and other minerals, they as class are said to be devoted to their vocation by the hope of finding rich placers which they can develop by individual effort. The loss of 900 men to the placer-mining industry, as shown by the above table, means the less of an equal number of at least potential prospectors. Many prospec- tors have been drawn away from Alas ka by the high wages and good bus mess opportunities which war condi. tions have created in the states. It is, indeed, no longer necessary to go to Alaska to obtain high wages. As consequence probably half, possibly three-quarters of the ~pre-war Alaska prospectors have sought other fields.
 Gold dredging continues to hold an important place in Alaska placer min ing. In 1919 there were 28 dredges i'll operation for the whole or part of the season and they produced gold to the value of about $1,10OOOO, compar- ed with an output of s1,425,OOO worth of gold by 28 dredges in 1918. Two of these dredges were operated in 1919 in the Fairbanks district, two in the Iditarod district, one in the Birch Creek district of the Yukon basin, one in the Georgetown district of the kuskokwim basin, and the rest on Seward Peninsula. One of the Fair banks dredges and the Kuskokwim dredge were first operated in 1919 and had successful seasons, showing that dredging can be profitable even under adverse conditions. This fact and the successful gold dredging in Seward Peninsula during the last fifteen years proves that this type of mining has an future in Alaska In nearly every placer-mining district of Alas ka there are large areas underlain by auriferous gravels which justify ex- haustive prospecting for the purpose of finding dredging ground. The suc- cessful use of cold-water thawing in connection with dredging enterprises should give a further stimulue to this form of mining.
 The Yukon camps are the most iso- lated of the important Alaska mining districts and are therefore the places where the cost of mining is highest, 1 so that they are the most sensitive to present economic conditions. This fact is reflected in the comparison of their gold output for 1919 and 1918, made in the subjoined table. Fortu- nately the loss at the Yukon camps was in part offset by a somewhat greater production of gold at the mines on Seward Peninsula.

morning.
DR.. O. H. Weaver, who is attending
the wounded men, said that Sheriff
Player has wound in the region Of
the stomach but he expresses the be-
lief that the abdominal wall was not
pierced by the bullet, hence he does
not consider the wound dangerous.
The bullet could not be located, how
ever.
Deputy Sheriff Dixon was suffering
from hemorrhages from a wounded
right lung. A bullet struck him high
on the right chest, but the ball could
not be felt from the skin. The sur
geon says that he is in worse condi
ton than the sheriff.

E. w. Dingwell, a prominent at

day and Wednesday, having a case
for a client in the District Court in
session this week. Mr.. Dingwell is
not only a well known attorney, but
is one of the best known republicans
in the state of Iowa. While in the
city he made this office a very pleas
ant call and during the conversation
Mr.. Dingwell told US that he was in
the state of Minnesota recently and
covered a territory of no less than a
thousand miles. During his travels
he came in contact with men in all
the walks of life and learned that
there WIS a strong sentiment in ia
vor of Senator Harding, the republi-
can candidate for president. Mr.
Dingwell said Minnesota in his judg-
ment would go for Harding by no
less than $4,000. AS Mr.. Dingwell
is well known for his conservative
statements, We do not doubt but
that he is correct in his conclusion.

Just a word about the re-
cent price reductions on dry
goods.
Shrewd merchants have been
planning and wishing for a
good stiff reduction in prices
on cotton goods, and jobbers
and manufacturers have fin
ally acceded to these just de-
mands.
This store is always a leader
i'm such movements and was
in a position to offer these re-
auctions among the very first.
In June We radically "cut"
on silks and now on all cotton
goods you will find our prices
cut from 20 to 30 percent.
This is not true in ready-to-
wear goods and an inspection
of the illedged IS to so percent
cuts being offered in many city
stores will show that they are
all old goods from last spring
and even farther back. The
new fall garments are not be-
ing sold at a discount, and in
fact are very scarce.
We have a few garments
from last season that we will
literally "shave" if you want
discounts" instead of new
garments.
