Reviving of Mining.
(Ketchikan Chornicle


 Reports coming from the Hyder district are that the Big Missouri is showing up tremendously rich that it will be a property par with the fabuously wealthy Premier mine.
 At the present time freighter is coming north with supplies. and equipment for the reopening of the Jumbo mine at Sulzer. At Helm Bay Kasaan, Hollis, Chomley and other places in the vicinity of ketchikan more men are in the hills prospecting or mining than have been out in many years And the outlook for this line of industry is brighter than before the
 Particularly helpful will be the deyelopment of the Big Missouri. The Premier, with it's great divi- dends has stimulated interest imagination of the investor of the East and among the big fnanciers has failure And now the opening of the Big Missouri if it will show up anywhere good the Pre- mier will mean double interest.
 A mining engineer recently from the East has let it be known that the result of the Premier show ing it is becoming easier matter interest capital and the Big Missouri showing will make it just much easier again.
 Even in Ketchikan the difference in the attitude of the investor Where a few years ago it practically impossible to raise dollar for any thing except fishing proposition today people are turning their attention and money to the development of mines.
 The bodies here in abundance, within a few miles of Ketchikan, and it will not be many industry of the district Like all lines industry those who go in early and stick it are those who will reap the harvest.

MEXICAN SITUATION CLEARING UP.

Washington correspondents say the United States has receded from the position that she would require Mexico to write into treaty agreement that would tipulate that the conscatory provisions the 1917 Constitution not retroactive a condition precedent to the recognition of the Obegon Govern ment It has indicated that it would be satisfied with any other form of assurance long it would nave the force of law and not be a subject of mis- understanding in the future. This position of the United States and the ratification by President Obregon of the financial agreement between Finance Minister De Ia Huerta and American bankers with reference to the refunding of Mexcos foreign debts it is believed, may lead to early usm men of the Mexican situation and the recognition of Obregon
 The Mexican Supreme Court in five decisions has held that the famous Article 27, which the Government ail the mineral oil, coal other natural resources other than surface rights the soil is retroactive However the decisions satis- factory to Secretary Hughes, who contends that the wording of the decisions all based the Texas Oil Case, provides hole that would leave the Govern ment an opportunity to break through and coniscate American properties acquired before 1917 The de- cisions it is also contended at Washington, do not the Constitutional provisions for division large estates and church properties acquired adoption of the 1917 constitution through condemna tion proceedings The United States Government con tends that American citizens who hold large landed estates acquired before the change in the Constitu- tions and the Churches which hold property under like circumstances must be protected well those holding mineral, oil and coal and water rights.
 However, the position the United States has taken and the prospect of early adjustment Mexicos financial obligations it is believed will enable the statesmen of the two countries get together long.

NO CAUSE FOR COMPLAINT.

Those who inclined to complain because President Harding did not make his promised visit to Alaska going long way for something with which to find fault. With Congress in session and considering important matters and more than million men out strikes il would have been impossible for the President to Alaska and not neglect the Nations business.
 Of course the failure of tue President to visit A.aska has been a keen dsapp ment to the people Of this Territory There very great regret because of the that made it impossible for him to come But there is no thoughtful Alaskan but that realizes his proper place has been at the capital where his services have been needed by the people of the whole counry-includng Alaska.
 the meantime the hope is general that the situation might devlop that he may visit us next year his letter Gov Bone he expressed the hope that he might be able to to the Ter ritory year and he promised that he would if it possible. There is question but that he will keep the promise if he do without eopardizing the interests of the country.

 He referred particularly to the Presidents plan visit 10 the Territory this summer-plans that had to be abandoned when the Congressional session dragged along past July.
 The speaker also emphasized the appointment of Secretary the Interior Fall proof of Mr. Hard Sngs desire something constructive should be compished for the Northland during his administra tion.
 So many other matters claim the Presidents at tention that if anything is to be accomplished for the Territory, there must be constant work it's behalf.
 Why launch a campaign to have either Mir Harding MT. Coolidge, both, in company with substantial delegation from both chambers of Con gress visit Alaska summer?

II It Fits

A cynic thinks when woman gives up her own name to take that of her husband it is the last thing she ever gives up for him, but it is only the start of things she's gonna take from him
 After the present styles it would be pretty hard to imagine anything short of the fig leaf being classed as a daring gown.
 A man might be able to talk fiuently in half a dozen or more lan- guages. but he hasn't any more chance than a rabbit in an argu- ment with a woman who knows only one.
 You cant break Natures speed laws and get away with it. The old girl has traffic cops disguised as stomachs, nerves, hearts, lungs and brains, and one or the other will get you soon or later.

 When fellow rises too high in his own estimation he is pretty sure to fall in the estimation of his | friends.
 Notwithstanding the fact she ex- poses so much fit, the sharp criti- cism made about her never gets under the skin of a fapper. Paint too thick to pierce, probably.
 The reason lot of couples do not care to elope is because they need the wedding presents to help furn- ish their new heme. Vixen it comes to listening in the old eavesdroppers still prefer the keyhole to the radio.
 Some men who haven't any more backbone than iellyfish have made success of life by marrying a girl who had million, ''bones." Don't lose sleep because the gos- sips talk about you.

German Swamp.
{ (New York Tribune.)


 The further slump in the gold price of the Ger man mark furnishes further evidence of what is the matter with Germany.
 Her troubles are not much due to any repara tion burden she is carrying, is likely to be asked to carry to fiat money. The seeds of her disease are to be traced not Versailles and it's treaty ehamber but to Berlin and it's printing establish mens.
 One of the largest German business concerns re- gently reported that it had been compelled readjus wages IS times in year. Imagine what this means when management figures the cost of goods for future delivery It like trying a boat down Niagara The wonder is that German industry is disorganzed, that it has not come to a dead stop.
 The German Government lacks the courage to stabilize German currency, and the German people apparently lack the intelligence to insist that it do SO Russia has been wrecked by the application of communistic principles; Germany is similarly wreck ing herself by fatism. primitive country can stumble along with barter, but industrial country cannot-must have money of known value
 Germany herself. But so far she has shown no disposition to apply the remedy. Instead draining her paper money swamp she pumps more water into it. What Germany needs above all things is a huge bonfire and currency whose value in relation to gold is fixed
