600,00O Joneses Be Asked
 to Buy Jones Mine Stoca

RENO, New, Jan. 12.-What's in a name?"
 That is what Harry Lee Jones, Reno mining man, is attempting to ing company, which carries his name and has for it's stockholders only people by the name of Jones.
 Many people scoff at the scheme and recall, disgustedly Conal Doyle's story of "The Red Headed League; '; but that does not bother Harry Lee Jones. He has sent out a circular proclaiming the merits of his com pany to some 600,000 Joneses in the United States and has received an- swers from 250,000 of them.
 The correspondence ensuing has brought to light the statements that the captain of the Mayflower was named Jones and that it was he who signed the first treaty ever made be- tween the Indians and the Pilgrims. Many are related to the great naval officer, John Paul Jones; there is the son of the famous Golden Rule' Jones, once mayor of Detroit. Mother Jones, who has been interested in mining" for some time; Bob Jones, the evangelist; Daniel Fisk Jones, we'll known Boston surgeon; Ad miral H. P. Jones; and Senator A. A. Jones of Arizona.
 Part of the plan of Harry Lee Jones is the giving of ten per cent of the net earnings to charity. Jones tions thus endowed will have to be connected with the Jones family.

NEW GOVERNOR
 H SAID TO BE
 AIM JOHN FRAME
(From Alaska Weekly.)

Political interest has been aroused by the departure from Seattle during the past ten days of John Frame, pri- mary choice of Alaskans for National Committeeman, and Charles H. Mil Ter, assistant U. s. district attorney of Ketchikan, who has been asked to resign on more than one occasion, ac- cording to Washington advices.
 Charles H. Miller was asked to re- sign shortly after the visit of his chief Arthur G. Shoup, to Washington, fol lowing the Cleveland convention. Mil Ter went to Washington and it was understood an investigator was sent to Alaska by the Department of Justice to investigate charges made by Miller who returned to Ketchikan to resume his official duties.
 Miller was non-committal regard ing his Washington mission while in Seattle, and Mr. Frame also declined to discuss his trip to Washington. He stated, however, that he had been assured his seat as National Commit teeman and would vigorously oppose several appointments of officials now serving in Alaska
 The mission of Miller is puzzling, and it is said it indicates the selec- tion of Gov. Frank Lowden of Illinois as Secretary of Interior. Miller is relative of Gov. Lowden, who backed him for a judgeship under Harding. Miller has violently disagreed with Shoup regarding the conduct of his office in Ketchikan. He vigorously prosecuted liquor cases and social vices causing abatement proceedings to be instituted closing a large num- Der of buildings.
 Frame and Miller arrived in Wash lngton last week where it is reported they were granted an interview with the Attorney General. Frame is op- posing the reappointment of Governor Scott c. Bone of the Territory. Among other Alaskans in Washington are Senator Frank Aldrich of the First Division and Senator-elect Howard of the Third division. Just what mission called these Alaskan legislators to Washington is not made known.
 Frame charges a plot by Federal officials in Alaska to keep him from being named National Committeeman after his election in the direct pri- mary

It was said that as far as the con- tractors were concerned, they had completed the hydroelectric project for the town of Petersburg and were ready to have the juice from the Blind Slough plant turned on about New Years eve. Before the juice could be turned on and hooked up with the town transmission line, some small electrical appliances are said to be needed, and it is said these are coming via mail.
 None of the city officials could def initely say as to when the power may be turned on but thought it would be accomplished in another two or three days.
