closely identified as possible with their
calling In civil life, so as not TO estrange
them from 1t or make them lose chance
OF reSuming their former activities on

Change for Worse With Peace.
For many decades, up to the war,
criminal statistics in Austria showed a
certain stability in numbers and grade
Of offenses. With peace, q temporary
change for the worse set In.
The remnants Of the great Austrian
armies, partly demoralized by war. were
swept back to the impoverished and
starving homeland already overcrowded
by civilian fugitives from the provinces
Of the former vast empire.
It Is not to be wondered that with
chronic lack of food and all other COM
modities brought about by blockade dur
ing the war, the rate of criminal Of
lenses, principally theft. burglary and
fraud, rapidly reached an astoundingly
high level.
This movement was reversed, however,
when conditions in Austria became more
stabilized, and the following years re-
duced crime statistics sharply.
Two Methods Of Confinement.
Austria has six large prisons, five for
men, one for women, in which only per-
sons sentenced to penal servitude of
more than one year are kept. They
accommodate $3.50 prisoners. Besides
these, there are Is prisons connected
with the principal law courts, and more

than 200 district jails with total ca
pacity Of 1900.
Two methods Of confinement are
practised, solitary and Joint" deten-
ton. In the solitary form the prisoner
lives and works in his cell entirely
alone. He sees nobody except his
warder and once a month superior
officer of the prison, and Is not per-
mitted to speak. In complete silence
his days and nights are passed and
only q short daily walk in the courtyard
brings him into the open air, under the
supervision of q warder.
Solitary Confinement.
In the common cells, in which the
prisoners live in groups of about IA,
the convicts take their meals together,
and they work together in common
work shops.
Solitary confinement is either ordered
by the governor Of prison as discipline
for disorderly prisoners, or is given
convicts who ask this form of punish
ment.
II a man has a clean record in prison
he can, by serving a term in solitary
confinement, shorten his sentence about
one-third.
Austrian prison rules afford we'll
behaved convictS further opportunities
Of earlier release. After a prisoner has
served half his sentence he can get
conditional release whereby he enjoys
freedom so long as he behaves. If he is
found guilty of any offense, however
slight, his original sentence Is revived
and he has to serve 1t out.

Austria in 1919. This abolition brought
no appreciable change in homicide
statistics. Murders did not rise above
normal, as predicted by opponents Of
the measure, nor did they fall below
normal. In this Austrian criminologists
saw proof that capital punishment Is
not deterrent of murder.
In Austria, the percentage of re-
cidivism is high. Nearly SO per cent OF
the released Jail population resumes its
criminal activities and finds its way
back to prison, so the same percentage
of the average prison population must
be classed as habitually criminal.
How to deal reasonably with GRIM
inality both from the point of view of
protecting society and endeavoring to
reform the individual criminal is as
puzzling and perhaps as hopeless in
Austria as in every other country.

A cable report covering de- velopment progress on the B. c. Silver, issued by the London office of the Selukwe company July 13, provides an interest ing insight from official sour- ces regarding the recent high ly promising ore discovery on that property in the announce ment that the ore body encoun- tered in drift 636 on the 9th level had been opened for a distance of 120 feet, with the ore continuing in the face. The average value for the whole 12O feet was given as $22 per ton across g width of ' feet. As ore was still to be seen on both the hanging and foot walls, indications pointed to the ore body being of some- what greater width, the esti- mate being around ten feet. Some of the cut samples were said to have given assays rang ing between $60 and $100 per ton.
 The ore body is considered the downward continuation of the rich All Premier stope, &C., cording to the report.

AMERICAN CREEK
 MINING COMPANY
 SURVEY COMPLETE

The work of surveying the big
 mineral holdings of the Ameri- can Creek Mining Company, on
 American Creek in the upper
 Bear River section, has been completed by Dalby B. Morkill, B. c. Land Surveyor, according to Oren F. Hill, president and managing director of the com- pany, who, returned to town Tuesday, after spending most of the past week on the prop cry. MT. Morkill is now en- gagged in survey work in the Marmot River section.
 MT. Hill informed the Herald that work on the company property, comprising fifty-two claims and fractions, is prog ressing steadily under the di- rection of A. Pasco, local met allurgist and assayer. Between 10 and 12 miles of trail has been built leading to the many different known ore bodies and showings, from which hun- dreds of assays have been made during the past four or five years. The work now in progress is confined entirely to systematic development of the surface showings. The com pany is also constructing a good camp, so located that the various and widespread ore ex- posures can be reached by the shortest route possible to at tain.
 No more convincing evidence of the confidence of local min ing men in the future of the American Creek Mining C. property could be found th9a is presented in the authoritat i've statement that William ]. Tolin, manager of the Mou ain Boy Mining, has purch a very large block of stock II the former company, the prop ties of which adjoin the Mount ain Boy.
 The Mountain Boy is already a proven mine and sensational developments on the property are expected to be announced in the very near future, accord ing to those in a position to know the inside facts regard ing recent operations.

.HYDER LEAD MINES
 DEVELOP PMENT AT
 INTERESTING STAGE

With the upper tunnel now exploring the lower extensions of the celebrated Castle" out. crop, one of themost remark able mineral formations ever encountered in the North, de- velopnent activities on the Texas Grey properties of the Hyder Lead Mines, Inc. are now reaching a decidedly in teresting stage and may yield surprising developments in the near future.
 Samples taken from the Cast le outcrop in earlier periods disclosed the presence of veins carrying values ranging be- tween 800 and $100 at points in the great up-shrust of min eralized material, which at a distance bears a remarkable resemblance to the ruins of some ancient castle. Although these high values are consid- cred to be in most instances of secondary origin, it is possible that they may go to consider able depth; hence the unusual interest attaching to the pres eat activities.
 The tunnel is now in over 18O feet and is penetrating a heav- fly nineralized body of orc ranging from 8 to 9 feet ii width and carrying good work ing values. Commercial values have been encountered practic- ally throughout the entire length of the tunnel. Sampling Of the tunnel late last fall over a distance of 160 feet and across a width of three feet disclosed an average of $50 in gold, silver up to $8.40 per ton and total values, including the lead, ranging up to $43 per ton. An average of the drift over the same distance disclosed an average tonnage value of approximately $10 per ton. As most of the drift lies only g short distance be- low the surface, the lowest depth attained being only 90 feet, and much of it in a decom- poged area where considerable teaching has undoubtedly oc- cured, indications point to an increase in values as greater depth is attained.

MONARCH VEIN SHOWING STRONG
 IN NEW TUNNEL

From 9 few stringers at the surface to a heavily mineral ized ore body four feet in width within a distance of 19 feet from the portal of the new prospect tunnel is the interest result attained under the de- yelopment program launched in recent days by the Hyder- Monarch Gold Mining Comp any on the Monarch group, lo- cated between the Riverside mine and the Fish Creek prop critics of the American Mining and Milling Company.
 The vein is clearly defined, with both walls free, and is strongly mineralized across the entire four feet of width, al-
 hough the heaviest concen- 4ration occurs along the foot wall, according to Arthur Moa, general manager of the comp my.
 Values at the new level have not been determined but ore appears of good commercial grade. Samples taken from the surface exposures a short dist 'ance beyond the present face of the tunnel have given assay returns running over 1000 ounces in silver per ton and high values are expected when this area is reached. The tun- nel is now in 27 feet and is ex- pected to reach the lower ex- tensions of the high grade zone within a short time. The ore is galena and carries con- siderable gold in addition to the silver and lead values, ac-- cording to the surface assays.

to compensate for the loss of an aliens life.
 There is a trite saying of Pres. ident Wilson to the effect that Legislation IS generally con- ceiVed for the benefit of the few and not in the interest of the many" and it certainly ap- plies to some of the actions of the Alaska legislature. Why on earth a body of men select ed to represent the people of the Territory should incorpor- ate in their compensation act a feature so unjustly adverse to citizenship is beyond my com prehension.
 There were several men in the 1927 session who vigorously opposed this feature of the compensation law but there were also several slick fellows who were working for their masters-the large mine oper- ators- and they were able to secure a majority of votes for the measure.
 I, of course, would have you understand that I am in favor of a workmans compensation act for Alaska and I raise no question regarding amounts fixed in the present law for in- jury or death but I believe the whole act a most unscientific hodge-podge and should be changed to conform with the cooperative methods thathave been adopted by many of the States. I believe the revenues of the Territory are ample to allow participation by the Ter 1itory in the payment of com pensation to injured workmen.
 It is possible that other busi- ness organizations in Alaska may take this matter up and make it an issue for the next election of legislative mem bers. It seems to me that la boring men throughout Alaska should be informed regarding the strange compensation law they are now working under and they might make some ef- fort to have it changed.
 At least a citizen of the Unit ed States resident in Alaska ought to be informed that his legislative representatives have discriminated against him in securing employment, and have by law made aliens pre- ferred employees.
 Sincerely yours,
