TIE LEAGUE MIDGET.

II there remains any forward looking gentle
men who stiu believe the league In not dead
since the United states has finally decided to
have mono of It. let them consider the leagues
financial budget then reverse themselves.
We viii touch but a few high points. Tho
salary OF the secretary general is fixed at St2o-
600 year. and according To tho rules Of the
new day" this nominal compensation IL cx-
omptcd from taxation OF all kinds The under
secretary receives 10000 per annum, while an
undetermined number ot additional secretaries
or undcrlings receive $4,000. The financial al.
rectors, number not specified begin at 5000
and run up to $4,000. then lot OF commis-
sloncrs. dutics unknown, are to pull down from
$4,000 to $4,000 per annum, followed by a
whole regiment OF undcrlings whose honor.
arium ls fixed at from $4,000 to $4,000 year.
There is more TO he told, but It all runs along
the slmc general line. In fact, there * no limit
to the offices or their emolumonts since tho
league is a sclf-pcrpctuaung and solr-dIctatIng
affair.
hut what We started out to say Is this, There
isn't going TO be any league. For since Uncle
sam has decided To remain aloof there is nobody

patriots who have been pulling for the thing
viii positively refuse to work unless the ghost

two great appropriation bills. Aside from those
two measures there was not single biU failing

HAWK INLET CLAIMS
 ARE BEING WORKED

Considerable work, to cost in the neighborhood of $10,000, is to be done on group of about forty claims owned at Hawk inlet on Ad- miralty island by Charles Williams and J. Brown, according to MT. Will jams, who arrived in Juneau on the Frances E., says the Empire. Among the claims are those at one time owned by the late George Reid and Dr. Martin Damourette but which Mir Williams said he located two years ago after the former owners had failed to do their assessment work on them for several years.
 The new owners have each year, since locating, been doing their assessment work and this year be- sides doing assessment will have an engineer survey them to make map of them, it is said, and also de some work in opening them up.
 MT. Williams will be here for a short time awaiting crew of men and then will leave for the claims to start work. According to him there is no bonanza mine at Hawk inlet but very large body of high grade ore which he and his associates hope in time to get developed in such shape that they can dispose of it to some mining company that will work it on a big scale.
