More than an ordinary announce
ment is the statement made recently
by Alpheus Geer, founder of the Mar.
shall Stillman movement, which is
designed to be a reconstruction cen
ter for men with prison records, that
its first service clubhouse will be
opened in the fall. For it represents
but one more piece of evidence that
the thought of the civilized world is
undergoing a radical, but exceedingly
important change in it's relation to
those whose have been stigmatized in
the past as criminals beyond redemp-
tion because they have, perhaps only
once, ventured beyond the law and
come within it's power
More and more it is becoming rec
orginized that the way to redeem men
who are under cloud is not by plac-
ing upon them load to render their
progress virtually impossible, but
rather by employing methods that
will help to lift the load, heavy al
ready beyond the ordinary, under
which they are laboring.
The projecting clubhouse. to b.
known as Service Club No. 1, will
be equipped with all those features of
normal enjoyment which mean so
much to young men, and is to be avail
able as general meeting place for
men of the neighborhood, without dis
tinction as to their past connections.
1t is simply demanded that they shall
be recommended by member of the
organization, the object being to give
every man a chance to "get started
right" and the requirement being
that those enjoying the clubhouse's
prerogatives should be willing to deal
con the level" with the organization
and with their companions. It's aim,
therefore, primarily is to help those
disdemeanor, under the condemnation
of being outcasts to become safe and
self-respecting members of society.
In this connection, what Mr.. Geer
said rdcently when discussing the
movement shows the foundation upon
which the work is being builded, a
foundation which should ensure it's
success.
eve are not reformers," he declar-
ed, adding, "The whole idea of the
Marshall Stillman movement is bas-
ed on the fundamental law of service.
By teaching that the law of service
is a definite law and that in keep
ing within the law we receive de-
finite reward, we show these men,
many of whom were formerly trans
gressors of the laws, how to reach the
security and satisfaction of honest liv-
ing.
With such a keystone in it's build
ing structure, there should be no doubt
regarding the valuable work that it.

oneself is still large part of the law

A Clubhouse
For C0mebacks

the old one, when a new railroad,
street car line or boulevard will divert
trade to someone else.
! But there are some things that are
eternally good fortune.
Friendliness is worth more to a
man than a ten per cent dividend.
1t will sell more goods than low pric-
es, win more cases than eloquent ap-
peals to the jury, convert more sim
ners than any argument or creed. The
hardest man in the world to resist is
the friendly one. We can steel our
selves against the clever chap and we
can stubbornly refuse to accept the
arguments of the efficient one, but we
surrender to the friendly man.
Usefulness is worth more than good
fortune. The useful man will seldom
be without employment. He can do
a necessary piece of work little bet
ter than anyone else does-it puts
himself on the preferred list. He en-
joys the comfortable distinction of
having the world bidding for his
services. He need not be clever, bril-
liant, CONSPICUOUS or lucky if he is
useful. Seek first the virtue of use
fitness and other things will be add
ed unto you.
Nothing succeeds like Character.
Your character is what you have left
after the bank has failed, the crops
are ruined, the house is burned and
the family has died with the flu. Com
petition may rob you of your hard
won success, but nothing can ever
steal from you your good character.
We make our misunderstanding it
out of circumstances and fashioning
it with faith. 1t is the one thing
which the world cannot give us and
the one thing which we ever get with
cannot be taken away from us with
out our consent.
Truth outlasts Success. John Brown
was hanged, Elijah P. Lovejoy was
shot down, Lincoln was assassinated
but the government at Washington
still lives-slavery is dead Calico
was imprisoned. Huss was burned at
the stake. The Puritans were exiled
and the Huguenots were massacred,
but the free right of the individual
is increasingly recognized.

Take chance on it. Follow it thru

more rewards than losses.
In all of these CANDLES you are

such things as happiness and self

Marking the definite aban- donment of recent prospecting activities, the last of the SUD- plies and equipment used by the Premier Mining Company on the Cantu group was haul ed into 9-Mile by Ernest Bry- son last week.
 As stated in an earlier issue, the activities of the company were confined solely to explor- ing the quartz-porphyry de posit. A number of open, cuts were sunk on the porphyry zone and several diamond drill holes were run in the same area but no attempt was made to explore the several massive galena showings found farther down the mountain from which shipments were made by the overs last year.

The naval air mapping expe- ditioh, engaged during the summer along the Southeast ern Alaska coast between Ket- chikan and Juneau, complet- ed 12,0009 miles of mapping before suspending operations a few days ago. This is about half of the, work, which is ex- pected to occupy, three years before the entire Alaska coast is mapped. The expedition has returned to the States but will return next summer to map the Chi chigoff and. Baranoff Islands and the mainland between Fly der and Mount Fairweather.

Work on the Spider Group has been suspended for the season, after several months of intensive development work which is said to have disclos- ed a large amount of ore of good milling grade in the tun- nel, in addition to providing much valuable information concerning the trend of the higher grade ore bodies known to exist on the proper ty. The latter have yielded the finest native silver smples so far found in the district but have not been explored al depth. Several tons of high grade extracted during the season, has been sacked and will be shipped south this fall.
 The management plans to re- sume operations early next spring.

B. G. Raymond, president of the Commonwealth Mining Company, arrived from Seattle Sunday and left at once for Cascade River to renew devel- opment work on the Company properties in that section.
 Mir. Raymond, who is a prom inent manufacturer of electric al goods in the Puget Sound metropolis, is accompanied by Capt. E. Sherman, of Se- attle, who is also interested in the Commonwealth com pany.
 Emil Davis, resident manager, states that tn e company plans to do considerable work be- fore the snow flies. A cross cut will be run on the main ore zone from the tunnel, which is now in about 100 feet. Gen. .eral exploration work will al- so be done on a strong zinc showing found on the proper ty. The vein is several feet in width on the surface, is well mineralized and has been traced for a considerable dis tance. Owing to the low price level maintained by that ele- ment until recently, no attempt has been made to explore the vein, but with zinc rapidly be- coming one of the most sought for of the lesser metals, it is believed that the Common wealth vein may be developed into a valuable deposit.

ELECTION CAMPAIGN
 WARMING UP

| l With the general election
 less than a month away, the
 political pot is again steaminy up, with an occasional gurgl denoting the close approach
 of the boiling point. Judging from the tone of press con-
 ment, the forthcoming con-
 test is likely to be one of the
 livlrest since the ROW far off
 days when John w. Corson came in with a pot of Seattle money to wrest the delegate ship from Wickersham-only 1 to find that his good had d coin of the realm produced no other effect than to in- crease public enthusiasm In favor of his opponent.
 Both candidates for the del. egateship are. now, stunning the Territory. Sutherland has visited the Nome section and is back on the coast after a visit to the Interior. Candidate Maruuam recently delivered his initial address of the cam paigi at Fairbanks and wlIl probably proceed to the Nome section before appearing O. the coast. Press reports O. his Fairbanks address state tha. Marquam stressed the danger presented by the mass voting of Indians. So far as the Eli st Division is concerned this ap- pears to be the principal ls- sue of the campaign.
 In an address at An chorar Sutherland is reported 0 ha> defended his opposition l. proposed literacy test fo 70 CTS on the ground th2t would "disfranchise maly O. timers, as we'll as lnd4a:.5 The delegate also adm 1 sanctioning the defamatory article published in the Hearst papers but declared that it was intended to refer only to Ketchikan and the Bristol Bay region.

SEBAKWE HAS B. C.
 SILVER OR BODIES

The Sebakwe main tunnel, on which work has been in pro- gress for several months, is now in about 635 feet from the portal and is being ex- tended at the rate of about 30 feet per week, according to reports from the property.
 Owing to the soft charactr of the ground encountered during the earlier stages it was necessary to timber up to 360 feet and the use of power drills was almost impossible until recently because of the broken character of the rock.
 Recent reports from B. c. Silver indicate that the two big ore bodies located neal the north line of that property extend into the Sebakwe hold ings at a point near the south easterly corner of the group. For a time it appeared that the ore bodies in question were cut off from the Sebak- we by a granite dyke, which apparently abruptly terminat- ed both deposits on the north erly end. Later developments have disclosed that the gran ite is intrusive in character and had merely cut the ore deposits in two without affect ing or moving either body or their disposition. A cross cut was recently driven through the dyke and not only reveal ed that the continuation of the big ore zones lay on the farth- CT side but also disclosed that the dyke, instead of being a solid body, is split in two sections, with a good grade o1 milling ore between, in addit- ion to some high grade, 20 tons, worth close to $100 per ton being sacked in driving through. The dykes are about eight feet apart and are be- lieved to have risen to the surface long after the format- ion of the ore deposits.
 The practical assurance that the B. c. ore deposits extend into the Sebakwe is gratifying and will no doubt cause a considerable increase of inter est in that property.
 The present expectation is that the new tunnel will tap the ore about four hundred feet from the present face.

MINING EXTENSION OF RICH PORTER IDAHO
 ORE BODY

Operating on an extension of the rich main vein of the Porter Idaho group, which runs through their property, Fred and Will Jancowski, Ell Watland and G. D. Davis are engaged in sacking up high grade ore showing native ruby silver in profuse quantities. The vein from which the ore is obtained runs through a narrow. wedge shaped claim lying between two ofthe Port CT Idaho properties, one ot which is above and the other below: The claim in question is about 80 feet. wide at the point where the vein crosses. The vein is said to be about 5 or 6 feet wide at that point and carries about 5 feet of the same character. of ore. as is now being mined on the Porter Idaho about 500.rfeet below.
 The partners have rigged d cable to convey the sacked ore down the mountainside to a point where it can be reach ed by pack horses. So far they have extracted in surface op- erations about f5~ or 20 tons of ore that will average about $200 a ton and will yield all excellent profit for their work.
