A new visitors record was made at the Alaska Museum, Juneau, last month, according to Rev. A. P. Kashevaroff, cur ator. The total registration for July was 2,75O, or 500 more than was registered in July 1926. The total of registered visitors since the season opened was 5,0O9. This is many more than have ever been register ed at any corresponding time in any year since the institution was opened.

OFFICIAL FLAG ON
 WAY TO FRANCE

The first official flag of the Territory of Alaska, after be- ing displayed for several days in the Territorial Museum at Juneau, is now enroute to France with the Alaska dele gation to the American League Convention. The flag will be displayed at the Legion con- vention in the French capital and will also accompany the LegionaireS in the convention parade.
 The flag is the result of a con- test conducted by the Alaska branch of the American Legion among school pupils through out the Territory and was de- signed by Bennie Benson, a 13- year old boy in the 7th grade of the Mission Territorial school near Seward, Alaska. The design was submitted to the Territorial Legislature, by which it was adopted as Alas ka's official flag. The Legis- Iature also appropriated $1,- 300 for making the official flag and a number of souvenier flags of the same design. One thousand dollars of the appro- priation was to be used to send the designer and an escort to Washington, D. c. to present the first flag to President Coolidge. For some reason the Benson boy could not make the trip with the flag as. origin ally planned, so the flag will not be presented to the nations chief executive this year.

 It is currently reported that MT.

NEW ORE FIND
 ON SILVERADO

A new ore discovery of con siderable promise was made last week on the widely known Silverado property, as 3 result of recent surface prospecting activities carried on by John Hadn't.
 Samples of the ore displayed by MT. Haahti are of distinct ly high grade character. The ore is a close grained steel galena, with but little quartz showing in their makeup.
 According to Mir. Haahti, the vein from which the samples were obtained ranges from two to four feet in width and is practically solid ore through out.
 The new find was made at a point near the glacier and some distance north of the old work ings.

MOUNTAINVIEW PRE-
 PAIRING TEST SHIPMENT

Test shipments of ore from practically all the known ore bodies on the Fish Creek prop critics of the Mounatinview Gold Mining Co.,, will leave for the south in the near future, according to manager Arthur Moa.
 The plan is to ship about a ton of ore from the Grey Cop per, Gold, Marsh, Dave, and Skookum Creek veins, which form the most important ore masses of the extensive vein system. Additional patches of similar quantity will also be taken from several other veins which appear to warrant q fuller determination of their values than is revealed by as- says.
 The Skookum Creek tunnel has now reached a point fiji teen-hundred odd feet from the portal, which brings the face to a point directly below the surface outcrops of the Grey Copper vein. Owing to the dip of the vein, the tunnel must be extended a short dis tance farther before reaching the ore. The east fork of the tunnel is also being extended to cut the Gold Vein at depth. Extension of either of the two ore bodies to the level of the tunnel promises to provide 8 large and. valuable ore tonnage for future operations, in addit- ion to tht alread revealed in the Skookum Creek vein.

Seattle news dispatches re- port that on official investigat- ion of the facts attending the recent demise of Mrs. Florence Brennan has revealed that the former local woman came to her earthly end through nat ural causes. The immediate cause of death was peritonitis, superinduced by acute alcohol ism. The dispatches say that search is being continued for one l.. P.

 The investigation showed that Mrs. Brennan had been operat- ing a hotel at North Bend, Wn., for 10 days pior to her death and had posed as the wife of Knapp, who disappeared before she died.

SAYS RYDER MOST PROMISING CAMP
 IN TERRITORY

Jas. H. Hewitt, we'll known mining man returned to camp Wednesday after an extended trip to the south and later to the Fairbanks district, where he was located for a time at Berry.
 MT. Hewitt states that al- though there is considerable activity in Fairbanks in con nection with the big ditch con- sctruction project, business is greatly overdone as result of a large influx of people dur ing the past two years. There is comparatively little actual mining in progress either in the Fairbanks or Broad Pass sect ion at present, MT. Hewitt says, although there are some very promising gold quartz proper ties. Money for development is lacking, however, and no ex- tensive hard rock development is in progress. MT. Hewitt en- deavored to lease one promis- ing free milling quartz prop erty but could not see his way clear to meet the overly large payment demands of the own CT. The tendency to ask large payments on properties still in the prospect stage is a marked feature of the mining situation, he says, and is considered by him as largely responsible for the failure of capital to become interested in the quartz possi- bilities.
 Everything considered, Hyder is by far the best emp in the Territory, MT. Hewitt says. Mo- where in all the wide area of mining territory covered by his trip, was there as much real mining activity and develop ment progress as is visible in this district, he said, and no other camp appeared to have anywhere near the local min eral development possibilities.

U. s. COMMISSIONER
 RESIGNS OFFICE

U. s. Commissioner T. w. Nc Donald has rendered his resig- nation to Judge T. M. Reed of the District Court and will re- tire from office at the close of the present month.
 In announcing his contem- plated retirement Judge Me- Donald said that his desire to relinquish the office was due to the discontinuance of the local office of deputy clerk of the district court, which, save for a short period last spring, has been connected with the local commissioners office for some years.
 As the salary and other per- quisites of the deputy clerk form an important and the only assured part of the emolu- ments of the commissioner, the discontinuance of the deputy clerkship will place the com missionership on a purely fee basis.
 Judge Mcdonald states that the fee earnings of the Com missioner's office during his incumbency have been so small that he does not feel inclined to remain in the office during .he coming winter, if it is to be deprived of the small salary and office rental allowed in connection with the deputy clerkship.
 Clerk Dunn's communication announcing the discontinuance of the office, intimates that such action was taken at the instance of the Department of Justice, the letter stating that much correspondence on the subject had passed between his office and the judiciary de- partment.
 Commissioner Mcdonald plans to leave for the south for the winter soon after his retire ment but will return to Hyder in the spring. As his letter of resignation was not forwarded to Judge Reed until Wednes- day, it will probably be some days before his successor is an- nounced.

VIM. C. CAMERON
 EXPIRES SUDDENLY

W. c. Cameron, postmaster al Stewart and one of the most widely known and highly re- garded citizens of our neigh bor town, passed away sud- denly at his home Monday ev- ening as result of heart fail ure.
 Mir. Cameron was apparently in normal health up to a half hour or so before his untimely demise.
 Deceased, who was 52 years of age, was native of Quebec and had resided in Stewart since 1910. In addition. to hold ing the position of postmaster, MT. Cameron was also the local immigration agent, Customs Collector, Justice of the Peace and president of the Stewart Board of Trade, having been elected to fill the latter posit- ion on two successive occasions. A man of splendid capacities and attainments and a leader in everything pertaining to the progress and welfare of his community, MT. Cameron's death is deeply-regreted by all who knew him. He is survived by his wife, two sons and a daughter.
 The funeral was held We'd nesday at St. Marks church and was attended by practic. ally everyone in Stewart, in ad- dition to 8 large percentage o1 Hyder's population, and all government officials from both sides of the boundary line. Business houses on both sides of the line were also closed during the funeral.
 The impressive funeral service was conducted by MT. E. w. Carter, and R. w. Stewart, M. R. Jamieson, A. E. Young, w. J. Crawford, P. s. Jack and H. P. Gibson acted as pall- bearers.

PREMIER REACHES
 NEW HIGH LEVEL

The recent peculiar fluctuat- ions in Premier stock develop ed a marked upward trend during the past two weeks. The sto.k was quoted on the Van couver stock excahnge Fri day at $2.36, bid, $2.39 ask ed. This is the highest mark reached in considerable peri cd and warrants the view tha t the feeling of insecurity cngendered by false and mis- leading reports published last year has been effectually dis sipated at last. The new high level may also be attributed in part to the very promising out look for Premier operations on the Prosperity Group in the Marmot section. All accounts agree that this property is very likely to develop another bo- nanza mine.
 Porter Idaho is also showing a strong disposition toward better prices. The stock has ad- vanced fully 50 per cent since May 1, at which time it was quoted around IA cents per share, as against a new high of 22 cents this week. This may also be due to some extent to the Prosperity operations, as the rich ore body found on the latter property is definitely known to be an extension of the Porter Idaho vein system. With one or two exceptions, all other stocks have resonded to the upward inclination to some extent, although no important advances have been recorded.
 Dunwell has not yet reacted to the frank and clear expfan- ation of the company's situat- ion given by president R. M. Stewart at the recent annual meeting. Since July 1 quotat- ions have been featured by an almost uninterrupted descent. from $1.48 to the vicinity of 70 cents this week. Wednes- days quotations were .6412 bid, .69 asked. All present evil dences indicate that the pre- vailing low prices are not justi- fled by either the situation of the company or conditions at the mine.
 The misleading reports to the ing a prospective lack of ore are to all appearances entirely refuted by president Stewards report showing that of the 58,- 900 tons of originally estiR1at- ed ore reserves, approximately 45,000 tons is still available, without consideration of the potentialities of the recently discovered Ben Ali vein, which MT. Stewart stated had been traced down to the level of Bear River at a depth of 750 feet and for distance of 1900 feet. Assays of this ore were so high, he declared, that the directors should not feel justi- fled in assuming that they would be typical of the entire vein.
 Perhaps the most convincing argument that the affairs of Dunwell are in sound shape is to be found in the fact that the old board of directors was unanimously reelected by the approximately 500 sharehold- CTS attending the meeting.
