set forth that with all due respect to those gentlemen, and granting them every good intention and not ques- tioning their veracity that the fact of the matter Is that these mining prospects mentioned by the witnesses have been known to the expert min ing engineers acquainted with Alaska for the last ten and in some cases twenty years, and the reason the mines are not shipping today are two in number. The first reason is that the individual owner or company eith- CT lacked faith in his property or did not possess the large amount of capi- tai needed to develop the property on paying scale, and the other reason is that the ore Is of such character that it would not pay the mine to ship under any circumstances. Yet these men have for years been talking about these so-called mines and have continuously overlooked their own
 
 the blame for their non development upon transportation and smelling.
 With very thorough knowledge of mining conditions in Alaska, let it here be added very pointedly that most of these alleged mines that have failed to make good are little more than prospects. Just the moment-a man or group of men has a promising property in Alaska, he could not only bond it and work it himself with profit under the existing transporta- tion and metallurgical conditions, but he can also find a ready market in the mining centers of this country. One need only to point to the mineral pro duction of Alaska during the period of costs for the years 1917-1920 inclus- i've, amounting to more than $105,- 000,000 according to official figures and it will be seen that while these duct their mining operations others have not only contributed largely to the mineral wealth of the world but there is every reason to believe that they carried on their mining opera tions successfully.
 It would be much better we think if MT Brooks would devote his time to the work of the U. s. geological sur vey in discovering new sources of ore supply. In other words if he will To- cate the "smelts," the shelter will follow in due course of time.

Woodland Lake Is All Right

Replying to a current issue in
which Woodard lake receives a slam
and Long lake boost, permit me, as
proprietor of Woodard lake resort, to
say that under the persevering insis-
tence of our bathers, / am compelled
to answer the same by calling the
attention of the public to the fact
that we do not have to draw in road
sand to make our beach as nature
provided for that in the beginning
giving us a bottom as hard as a road
bed and as white and clean as the
ocean beach. Again, we don't have
to fence it in for the protection of
the bathers as they will neither sink
in the mud nor meander beyond a so
called danger line, as history fails to
reveal the fact that any person has
ever drowned in this lake AS to the
purity of the water of these lakes,
would add, that while Long lake has
its origin in the swamps to the north
east, Woodard lake is spring fed.
However, there is not a shadow of a
doubt in any sane persons mind but
that either water is suitable for
bathing, and | challenge any legiti-
mate chemical analysis to show the
adversary.

ROSCOE'S IMPERIAL
CARNIVAL SHOWS
LOCATE IN BELONG
BIG CROWDS GATHER ON EACH
NIGHT TO TAKE IN" VAR
IOUS ATTRACTIONS

Lee Wade and son, of Adrian, Mich.
struck town on Sunday and Monday
morning started the erection of their
little show city on the lots at the
corner of West Main and Broas st.
A large number of people were on
hand all day Monday to watch the
stages of construction as the differ
ent shows and attractions were brot
out and put together, piece by piece,
until by Monday night the company
had every thing up and ready to DIS
pense pleasure, thrills and entertain
ment through the various agencies,
mechanical and human, which they
had brought with them for this pur-
pose.
The aggregation consists of a large
Ferris wheel, excellent Merry-go-
round, Airplane swing, which gives
one all the sensations of a real air.
plain, numerous shows, concessions
and other like attractions, which are
be ng very literally patroniZed by the
people of the city. One especially
good attract on is that of Doss, the
wonder man who grows in two min
utes time from six feet tall to eight
feet tall and who can lengthen his
reach in either arm to foot longer
than his natural reach. While this
may seem like fake, it is an actual
fact, local people having examined
his body and he having demonstrated
his growing and reaching stunt to
large audiences each night during this
week. For list of the complete at
fractions, see the advertisement of
the company on page two Of this is
sue.
While the ordinary carnival is look
ed upon with disfavor by a lot of
people, Mr.. Wade says that he has
always tried to maintain high class
of shows and attractions, eliminat-
ing all bad features of the carnival
and carrying everything good. This
he believes is as nearly as possible
carried out in the show which he has
here at present. He is the best type
of show man which we have as yet
met with and it is his request that
in case anything wrong is noted with
anything on the grounds, that the
matter be brought to his attention
and he will have it corrected at once.
