be construed TO be an act of negll-

that such failure on its part did not

We need only two things to carry

Mr. Walsh said that a survey
throughout the state has disclosed
that IN some towns a chairman and
registrar exist IN name only.
Walsh Presidee
Chairman Walsh announced at
the morning gathering,
It is the first time in many years
that any such group has been called
together by the democratic party
and marks the opening of the most
extensive campaign undertaken in
the recent history Of the party.
More than 200 responded to the
call, Slxty-four towns were repre-

Smith, he cannot lose. At least, that
is view generally accepted. This
state has gone for Cleveland three
times. The state was carried once
for Wilson. In 1916. Wilson lost the
state by $1,000: in 1918. we lost the
state by 5000; in 1920, when the
republican landslide came. We lost
by 10000. in 1922 by $4,000, and
in 1924 by $4,000. another land
slide. In 1920 and 1924 we did not
get out the vote.
This election is going to be won
or lost by the work you do and the
work others do in getting out the
vote, The republicans have a thirty
per cent advantage already in max

If we get out this thirty per cent

 ALASKA COLLEGE

Jack laid aside his paper. lighted his p1ne which had gone out and then with quizzical smile remark ed: 50 far. so good, Larry, but what l would like to know is how lis the proenector going to recognize a nlireralized country when lie meets one ? Anybody can recocD.ze 9 mineralized area after mines have been developd there, but suppose you are in a new country, what are you going to do then ?
 '"Tha; is a fair question, Jack. To start with I'll admit that the beet prospector might pass thru (. mlneTaljzed district and totally nlics all fhe signs but there are scne ilelrFul guide-posts availabl Sup pose we were travelling thru a new country and were following either along the ridges or up a valley. We would watch for float or for out croppings. We might do a little banning on the bars and if we didn't find anything we would pro- bably conclude that it was hungry country and keep on travelling. l suppose that every mining district has been passed up that way at some time.
 T believe we should go one step farther and ask ourselves what the districts of western North America have in common. My ob- servation has been that they are usually in or near ixyrusion igneous rocks such as small cupolas or granite or monzonite Others are along the margins of great granite batholithS such as the coast range hatholith that trends thru British Columbia and Southeastern Alaska. Don't tell me about the exceptions for J know that there are many but that isn't a bad rule to cover the majority of the rich districts. So when we are prospecting and come upon intrusions of these igneous rocks contend that there is a good place to pitch camp and spend a few days in close prospecting If we do not see any signs of mineral 'Zation in the zones around these intrusive masses we should move on and try another.
 "Also I have noticed that where you have ore deposits you generally find dikes close at hand If climb ed up on a ridge and saw dikes cut ting across from one ridge to the other like big ribbons, would say to myself: Larry, here is a good place to do little prospecting. These dikes tell me that they are from a deeper intrusion and that the overlying rocks have been fractured. Hence, if the in trusion happens to be mineralizeo this mineralization can be out of the intrusion into the fractured rocks above somewhat after the same manner in which the dikes were injected"
