Wm. E.

The tunnel was in 225 feet at the time he came down. The second ore zone was encountered some days ago and contains disseml- mated veins of we'll mineraliz- ed ore. No assays have beer, made, but MT. Younkin, who is a conservative and widely experienced mining man, says it Hooks very good"

IMMENSE ORE BODY
 ON WOODRINE

Although in a distance of 200 feet from the portal, the face of the No. 2 tunnel on the Woodbine property is still Ill the same massive body of ore in which it was started months ago, according to authentic re. ports received this week. As this tunnel is a crosscut, the continuance of ore throughout its entire length leaves no doubt that the ore body is the largest so far found in the district.
 The upper or No.1 tunnel is in about 60 feet at present but has not encountered the ore body which forms it's objective. As the outcrops indicate that the latter should be reached at a distance of about 112 feet from the portal, the tunnel must be extended consider ably before the ore is reached.
 Double shifts are being work ed in both tunnels.

TO RENEW WORK
 ON INDIAN?

Recent arrivals from the south report that rumors are rife in southern mining circles hat the we'll known and high ly regarded Indian Mines properties will shortly become The scene of renewed operat- ions under the direction of ah English syndicate. Whatever ruth may be contained in the reports, so far as can be learn. ed, they are based on no defi- aite authority. It may be said n their favor, however, that certain details are of a char. acter to suggest that they have at least some basis of fact and may forecast an early resumpt- ion of development.
 The Indian has reached a 3tage of development where t appears that adequate fi- nancing and good management will make it a prolific pro, ducer; hence we hope that the reports referred to are authentic.

WICKERSHAM TIES UP APPROPRIATIONS MADE
 BY LEGISLATURE

BY LEGISLATURE
 Claiming that appropriations of the Territorial legislature for the offices of Governor and Territorial Secretary and for all special legislative expenses were unlawfully made, James Wickersham, former delegate to Congress, has filed a suit in the District Court against Ter ritorial Treasurer w. G. Smith to enjoin the latter from pay. ing out any funds set aside for the indicated purposes. The total sum involved is $42,000. The list of approprl- ation items enumerated by Wickersham in his complaint embraces appropriations fo1 the Governors office totalins $17,690, and including salaries and clerical hire, travelling and contingent expenses o1 the Governor, dissemination of information about Alaska, entertainment and repairs to the Governors mansion. Ap- propriations for the Secre- tary's office affected by the suit amount to $21,700 and in- clude salary of Secretary and his assistants, additional cler- ical help, office rent and con- tingent expenses. The appro- priations for legislative ex- penses tied up by the action total $3,300 and include the compensation of all extra cler. ical help employed in the Sem ate and House during the re. cent session of the Legislature, The latter appropriations were made to cover extra work nee essary to preparing the journ- als of the Senate and Hous. for publication and for other necessary clerical work fol- lowing the actual session. As result of the tying up of the funds, it is regarded as unlike ly that the journals of the two houses will be completed until the legal action is defi- nitely settled.
 As stated by Judge Wicker sham, the action was filed by him, "for himself and other taxpayers similarly situated but is regarded by legislative members as an aftermath of the defeat of the Controller Bill. This view is given weight by the fact that Judge Wicker sham, in a speech in support of that measure before a joinl session of the Legislature, warned the legislators of the possibility of a legal action being brought to test the legal ity of their rights to perform Territorial duties, even though authorized and empowered to do so by the Legislature.
 Following the issuance of a temporary restraining order by Judge T. M. Reed, Treasur. CT Smith was scheduled to show cause on May II, why the order should not be made permanent.

ENDS SESSIONS EIGHTH LEGISLATURE

The eighth Alaska Legislat- ure closed it's session at Juneau at 1880 D. m. Thursday May 9th, after appropriating ap- proximately $2,5OO,O0O in gen. eral and special appropriat- ions and after dealing with more measures requiring ap- propriations than any of it's predecessors. The appropriat- ions made were larger than those of any preceding legis- lature. At the same time it also rejected more measures grant ing money than any previous Territorial legislature.
 The session ended in the Sen ate quietly and harmoniously i; after the disposal of almost every measure before it, while that of the House came to a close after a brisk battle over the Dunn bill increasing the maximum allowance of aged pioneers qualified to be mem- bers of the Pioneers of Alaska to $35 per month. The effort of Sheldon to force passage of this measure precipitated a lively debate during the clos ing hours but the session end ed without action being taken on the bill.
 While the Legislature pos sesses the distinction of hav- ing refused to raise taxes on industries in any degree; even lowering them in some cases, at the same time it was the best spender since the Legis- lature was created.
 The eighth Legislature pass ed a total of 82 laws, of which 49 originated in the House and B in the Senate. A total of 98 bills were introduced in the House. Of this number 33 were defeated, three died in the Senate and seven in the House without being given consideration; three were with drawn; and three laid on the table. Of the total of 70 meas ures introduced in the Senate, 33 passed both branches o1 the Legislature, twenty-five were lost, five died in the House, two in the Senate with out consideration, and five were withdrawn.
 Following is list of the meas ures introduced and passed in the period following the Her aids last report.

BIG JUNEAU PULP
 TIMBER UNIT IS SOLD

lAO OAoIAAOI II OA COICL VI LI1S Alaska District recently an nounced the award of the sec ond large sale of pulptimbel in Alaska this season. This timber unit is located in the vicinity of Juneau and com prises 835, 100000 cubic fee, or 5,O0O,0OO,OOO board feet. Bids were opened April 25. The only bid received was that of George T. Cameron, publisher of the San Francisco Chronicle, who bid 60 cents per cord of one hundred cubic feet for spruce pulpwood ana 30 cents for hemlock pulp wood.
 The rates bid are to apply to all material cut during the first ten years of operation. At the end of that period and at five-year intervals there after the rates are to be re, ajusted to make them con. form with the then current values of stumpage in South eastern Alaska but the con tract specifics the maximum. rates that may be set for the two five-year periods immedi- ately following the initial ten year period. The timber is to be paid for as cutting pro, ceeds. The sale runs for 60 years and the amount of tim. Der involved is sufficient t. supply the needs of a 50O-ton newsprint plant for that length of time. The purchaser is re quired to have a paper mill of not less than 200 tons daily capacity in operation by April 1882 and this capacity must be at least doubled by 1942.
 The necessary water power for the paper making project is available at Port Snettis- ham, 35 miles south of Juneau, and can be developed under licenses to be issued by the Federal Power Commission. The license period is 50 years. Surveys made by federal gov ernment show that not less than 100000 horse power is available at Port Snettisham and that most of this can be developed at very satisfactory costs.
 The initial investment in the paper mill and power project will be in the neighborhood of $1O,O0O,OOO.
 It is undestood that MT. Cam eron is acting in this matter on behalf of the San Francis co Chronicle and two other large Pacific Coast newspap, CTS which plan to form a com CTS which plan to form a cor poration and establish a plant for supplying their combined newsprint requirements.
 The region considered as tributary to Juneau and the Port Snettisham water powers is estimated to contain IT bill- ion board feet of timber 95 per cent hemlock and spruce. This extensive forest resource is to be managed by the Forest Service on the basis of provid- ing a sustained annual yield of timber to the paper mills i and sawmills of that region for an indefinitely long period.

 Sixty tons of concentrates from the Dunwell left for Van> couver on the Catala last week. The small size of the shipment is said to be due to a need for sufficient ore to make up a shipment. of even tonnage tor dispatch to Swansea, Wales, by the British Metals Corporal ion, which is at present pur, chasing the concentrates on a basis of 90 per cent of the value on delivery.
