Brooks Says Government
 Will Not Build Shelter

Dr. Alfred H. Brooks, who lis chairman of the Alaska Advisory committee and al l so at the head of the United States Geological survey, is at present making an investi- gations on the coast, as a member of the inter-depart- mental committee, to deter mine the feasibility of smelt. ing copper ore within the ter Iritory. The chairman has visited the coal and oil fields of the katalla district and is now on a tour of Prince
 William sound for the pur- pose of making a thorough study of the copper resourc, ies. Both the Kennecott and Latouche districts will be in- ivestigated and all the ele- ments entering into the sue. cessful operation of a smelt- CT will be given careful con-
 sideration.
 Brooks says that it was
 not the idea of the committee that the Government should undertake the establishment 'of a smelter in Alaska. He is convinced that it would be impossible to secure an ap- ipropriation for such an en. iterprise. The investigation is being made, he says, to de- termine the feasibility of a 'smelter in Alaska, the plan being to turn the data over to anyone interested.
 The results of the sum- imer's work will be made the subject of a report to be pub llished at an early date and ii is the belief of Brooks tha, private capital can be secured ito establish a commercial 'smelter at some point on or inear the coast.

Tanana Comes And Goes;
 Big Cargo For Nenana

The steamer Tanana was in port yesterday from the lower river, having arrived
 from Gibbon at an early hour in the morning with a tow of two heavily laden barges, most of the cargo be- ling consigned to the Alaskan Engineering commission and consisting of railroad mater Iial and general supplies.
 The steamer started back down river late in the after noon to pick up another barge, which is just inside the mouth of the river, in deep water.
 Considerable difficulty was Experienced in coming up the river, owing the low stage of the water and to changing channels, the latter being a very unpopular trait of the Panama river. The shifting silt, which moves overnight sometimes, gives navigators no end of trouble, especially toward the end of the season when the nights are dark and the water low, as is the case just at present.
 The cargo of the Tanana included a large shipment of bridge timbers.
 The passengers arriving on the Panama were: Charles Masse, J. w. Wilson, M. H. Kirkpatrick, w. Galal, Jas. A. York, B. Dawson, John Maloney, John McHugh, M. Mcleod, James Byrnes, Thos Clarke.
 The barges landed in port by the Panama were the Ca mille, with 12,OOO kegs of powder, and the Pete, with bridge timbers. The barge at the mouth of the river is the Moose, with a lumber cargo.

pays the following tribute: 1T is a
patriotic purpose that inspires the re-
union of those who served their coun-

it taught must be reiterated. The
first of these is patriotism. The de-
Tense of our country and its institu-
TONS which is the cause of righteous
ness among men. must always be the
supreme choice of our citizens.
The second is that our nation is
world power, not living unto itself
alone. but able and willing to do it
part in bearing the burden of civiliza-
ton and realizing that therein is a
broader and deeper Americanism
stronger and more glorious America
Il can congratulate you on your de-

the Poles would be sufficient to in
flict a decisive defeat upon the soviet
armies the newspaper declares.
THAT is why the Bolsheviki high
command is so anxious to- finish the
struggle against Poland as quickly as
possible. Soviet officers who have
been taken prisoners confirm this in
formation adding that the successes
gained by General Wrangel in south
ern Russia are causing considerable
anxiety in the ranks of the Bolshevik
army. The Russian Bolshevik gov
eminent. therefore. wants to finish
with the Poles so that it may turn its
attention to General Wrangel before
the autumn rains make campaigning
in southern Russia impossible.
THE Bolsheviki believe the capture
of Warsaw will end the war with Po-
land, a belief which is by no means
shared by the Poles. Soviet commits
sars. for the purpose of encouraging
their soldiers, are holding out dazzling
prospects of rich booty in Warsaw.
Little impression upon the men is be-
ing made. however for the morale of
the army is decreasing. In the region
of Brest-Litovsk a number of worn
out and hungry detachments have re-
fused OF obey orders, and 1t has been
necessary to replace them with fresh
troops. Summary executions had no
effect upon the men; the soviet sol
diers are tired of war
