 ELECTS NEW BOARD

The annual general meeting of the Hyder Chamber of Com merce, Inc. was held in Cham Der of Commerce Hall Tuesday evening, with the bulk of the membership in attendance.
 Aside from the election of a new board of trustees, the meeting was given over almost entirely to routine matters and developed little business of general interest. The election resulted in the selection of the following trustees:
 John Hovland, E. L. Dale, Frank Reichenback, Holger Johnson, E. D. Haddon, Arthur Moa and w. c. Blanton.
 The new board will meet Tuesday to perfect it organi- zation and elect from it's own membership, president, vice president and secretary-treas- .urer. The present incumbents are: LA. Hall, president pro tenn; Holger Johnson, vice president, and S. V. Warren, secretary-treasurer
 The Chamber also decided to resume the former practice of holding luncheon meetings once month and selected the third Tuesday of each month as the day on which these in teresting and beneficial gather ings are to take place. The first luncheon to be held under this schedule will take place Octobr 18th.

SURVEY TO
 COVER EIGHT MILES

The location survey for an ex- tension of the present Texas Creek wagon road, recently authorized by the Washington authorities of the U. s. Forest Service and Bureau of Public Roads will cover total of eight miles, according to an- nouncements made at Juneau by Forest Service officials a few days ago.
 The survey will extend from the upper end of the wagon road now being constructed by Seims and Carlson, to the head of Texas Creek. Construction of a road over the proposed route will open the Texas Creek valley from end to end and be of inestimable benefit to the mining interests of that district. Save in a few in- stances, mining properties along both sides of the valle! would be able to connect up with the proposed road by in- stalling a mile or less of road or tram.

RYDER LEAD HAS
 ENCOURAGING SEASON

Development work during the present season on the Texas Creek holdings of the Hyder Lead Mines, Inc, has been not only decidedly encouraging but has added greatly to the prospects of that promising property, according to local representatives of the com pany.
 The discovery of several new leads of considerable promise was the outstanding feature of the seasons operations. One of the new veins was stripped for approximately 300 feet and is said to average better than two feet in width over that distance. Assays of.the ore dis closed average values in ex- cess of $60 per ton in gold, sil- yer and lead. The remainder of the new leads were also ex- plored so far as time would permit. The bulk of the seas on's work was devoted to tun- neling on the original leads and to a systematic surface prospecting of the entire group. An official survey of the property preparatory to patenting, was made during the season and a permanent bunk house was constructed. The latter is a structure of wood and corrugated iron and will house a good sized crew.
 Company officials say an im- portant result of the seasons operations is that the excellent gold values carried by the ore have held up in fine shape.
 Wellington Beaton, president of the company, is expected to arrive from the south Sunday.

B C. SILVER REJECTS
 PREMIER MERGER
OFFERREPORT

Southern mining publications report that the much discussed Premier-B. c. Silver-Sebak- we amalgamation deal has failed of consummation, ow- ing to the rejection of the Pre- mier offer by the B. c. Silver shareholders.
 The Premier proposition is said to have been acceptable to the Sebakwe people but failed to meet the views of the B. c. Silver organization.
 It appears, however, that in spite of B. c. Silver's reported rejection, the deal is not en- tirely off and may be resumed on a somewhat altered basis.
 Seen from the local angle, the ultimate absorption of B. c. Silver by Premier appears an almost certain eventuality of the future, unless B. C.. shareholders are wiling to add several hundred thousand dol lars to the large amount ex- pended on development work during the past seven years and wait another two or three years before realizing a return on their investment.

Co-ordinated publicity for the entire Territory through the publication of a special 1927 All-Alaska Review edition is proposed by the Cordova Daily Times, of which H. c. Steel, veteran Alaska publisher, is owner and editor.
 The Review will cover every part of Alaska; setting forth within it's so pages the divers flied activities, resources, com mercial and scenic advantages and future possibilities of ev- cry section.
 To make the Review as com prehensive as possible, the publishers are asking the coop eration of every Chamber of Commerce in the Territory in providing a writeup and photo graphs of their respective dis tricts for insertion.
 In response to an invitation, the Chamber of Commerce has delegated to Chas. F. Sand ford the preparation of an art icle on the Hyder district for inclusion in the Review, and has named Arthur Moa and E. L. Dale as a committee to se- cure views for illustrative pur- poses.

MINERAL OUTPUT
 BIGGER THAN 1926

The bureau of mines reports that in 1926 the industries producing minerals in the United States and preparing or reducing them for use were. as a whole, maintained at higher level of productivity than during 1925. Measured by total value, S6,262,0 100000, the output was the next larg- est ever recorded.
 The aggregate value of the output of metals showed {; small increase over 1925. The most notable large increase was shown by zinc, whereas gold and silver showed notable decreases. The production ot gold continued the decline which set in about 1916. The average price of silver was 2 cents an ounce less than 1925, causing a decrease in the quantity produced.
 Production of copper increas- ed moderately. Imports were larger. Slackening of foreign demand is indicated by small CT exports. A marked increase in domestic demand was in sufficient to offset these fact ors, and domestic stocks in creased. The price trend was slightly downward.
 The lead and zinc industry was characterized by record production, intense activity. high prosperity, and excellent demand, although price levels were lower than in 1925 and declined during the year.

salization of S5OO,OOO, par val le $1 per share. One hundred ,housand dollars was raised by he sale of treasury shares at par, and development work started.
 During the past three years large amount of develop nent work has been carried put, mainly on the Silverado geins, where some 1900 feet of tunnels were driven; the main tunnel, 600 feet long, crosscutting the Central vein at a depth of 200 it. At this point the vein did not prove satisfactory, and work was transferred to the Canyon vein at an elevation of 1500 2t. Five hundred feet of tun- nel has been driven towards his vein, but the striking of highgrade ore on the Glacier claim above a few weeks ago has diverted all efforts to this section of the property. De- velopment of the Canyon vein, which carries high gold values, may possibly be continued throughout the winter, if weather conditions compel the stoppage of work on the Glac- fer claim.
 "This new discovery was also made by John Hadn't, and was rendered possible by the receding of the glacier, thus exposing the ore so long sought for. An area of possibly thirty acres is now exposed that was covered by ice twenty years ago."

GROUP
 SHOWING UP GOOD

Development work on the Monarch group in the upper Fish Creek area continues to yield most promising results. Under the direction of Marshal ). 1ckis, the main vein has now been traced for a distance of about 1000 feet on the surface and is showing up excellently under open cut development. The ore is mainly steel galena and gray copper, and carries excellent values in gold and 'ilver, in addition to lead, zinc and copper.
 Open cutting has disclosed hat the vein widens rapidly from few inches at the sur face to Is inches or so at a lepth of 6 or 8 feet and carries ] shoot of high grade along either the foot or hanging walls which yields large gold gilver values.
 Seven assays made recently rom ore taken from various ections of the vein gave the 'ollowing values in gold and silver, in addition to lead, zinc md copper values. The lead averages about 35 per cent, zine 7 per cent, copper 2 per cent.

SILVERADO IS
 NOW PROGRESSING


 discussion in local mining cir cleS. Four veins have now been uncovered, and ore is being sacked for shipment from the No. 1 and No. 4 veins at the rate of two tons daily. A large number of assays to determine the grade of ore being sacked indicate that No. 1 vein aver ages $200 per ton in gold, sil- yer and lead, while the aver age of No. 4 vein is $500.
 Samples of the ore displayed during the past few days ap- pear to sustain the claim of we'll informed mining men that the strike is the most sensat ional made in the district since the bringing in of the great Premier. i. The high grade streaks running through the veins contain native silver ir solid masses, often the size o1 ones finger or larger, while native silver nuggets weighing several ounces have been pan ned from the decomposed veir matter. The ledge matter it self is said to have assayed il some instances from 2O00 to 5000 ounces of silver per ton
 Old timers of the district re call that one of the earliest orc shipments made from this dis trict came from the Silverado and ores carrying sensationa values have been known to ex ist somewhere on the property since 1908.
 In. an effort to trace up the early history of the property the Herald obtained the fol lowing interview with MT. P s. Jack, of Stewart, one of tht districts most prominent resi- dents.
 "In September 1902" MT Jack said, "J. w. Stewart anG the late D. J. Rainey located the Rainier claim on the mountain east of where the town of Stewart now stands This mountain has been nam ed Mount Rainey, in keeping with the custom of naming prominent peaks after old tim CTS.
 ''In 1908 the partners found a boulder of float ore in the canyon about a mile below the glacier, and as a piece o1 this ore ran nearly 2000 oZ. ir silver, considerable prospect ing was done each season ir an endeavor to locate the ledge in place, but in each instance the search ended un- der the edge of the glacier.
 'In later years" MT. Jack continued, similar float ore having been found in a gulch to the south of the glacier, John Haahti took up the search and located the Silver ado veins four in number in 1920. In the following year the Silverado group of five claims was bonded to J. J. Coughlan of Vancouver fol $65, ,OOO. Development work was started, camps and trails built and a tramline installed from the workings at an el- ovation of $500 to a terminal at 150O feet. Twenty seven tons of ore were shipped, net ting $175 per ton over freight and smelling charges, but fo1 some reason or another the bond was allowd to lapse and the claims reverted to the owners.

Mr.. Sargent, who is cousin OF
Attorney General Sargent, neighbor
and intimate Of the President, said
afterward that the lingering hope
that Mr.. Coolidge will be nominated
and elected despite his present inten-
tions, is fortunately serving as a
stabilizing influence throughout the
country. If it were not for this prev
alence of hope, he believes there
would be a depression felt in business

certainty over the future.
This railroad chief said that the
President showed that he did not care
to discuss the subject, and that his
brief response was not OF nature
to inspire any hope that he could be
persuaded to change his mind.
Mr.. Sargent said the President ap-
peared to be far more interested in
what he and his associate had to say
about crops and business conditions.
They told the President that business
was good, generally speaking. and
that the crops in the Dakotas and Ne
