WILLOW CREEK DISTRICT
 SHOWS MUCH ACTIVITY

Mining in the Willow creek dis trict, says the Anchorage Times, is showing much activity this sum mer, according to Dan Kennedy, of the firm of Kennedy Brothers of Anchorage, who has returned to town from a business trip to the hard rock belt. He mushed over the entire district from Fishhook and brought back a lot of speci- mems from various of the properties for display in his sample case. One of the specimens, from the Gold Cord mine of the Golden Bear Min ing company, is very rich, carrying values of about $4,0O0 to the ton.
 There are about 120 men in the district at the present time, MT. Kennedy estimates, including two road gangs. The biggest force is employed by the Willow Creek Mines, operating the Lucky Shot and War Baby, there being about 40 men there, working under the direction of J. L. McAllen. The com pany has it's new compressor in op- eration and the results of the work being done appeared to be very sat isfactory.
 There are about 12 men working at the Gold Cord mine. from which property shipments of high grade have been made to the Tacoma shelter at regular intervals during the last year. In addition to the mining operations, which are pro- ceeding steadily, the company is now laying the foundation for a mill, it being the intention to have the mill in operation by the first of September.
 The Fern Gold Mining company has about 15 men working at it's mine on Archangel Creek, under the direction of T. s. McDougal. This is largely in the nature of develop ment work.
 The Marion-Twin Gold \ Mining company has about Is men em- ployed this summer, with work go- ing on at both the Gold Mint mine on Little Susitna and the Craig creek property.
 There is a small crew at the Ma bel, four men doing development work at the Martin property, two at the Independence and several others scattered over the district, including Mike Sherry, Thorpe, "Fortymile' Miller, and other old timers of the hard rock belt, the activities extending all the way to Purchase creek. s#=.#

FAIRBANKS COUPLE
 GET YEAR IN JAIL

MT. and Mrs Guy Burch, who have operated the Summit road house, near Fairbanks, during the past year, are under sentence of a year each for violation of the Alas ka dry law as the result of raid which was conducted recently by U. S. Marshal Lynn Smith. The trial of the couple took place before U. S. Commissioner Boyd and a jury last week and each was given the limit, a year in jail and fine of $1,000. Mrs. Burch is to serve her time. at the detention hospital and her husband will be confined at the federal jail The appeal bond was fixed at $2,5O0 and the couple were given "A hours to obtain bondsmen failing which they gave themselves up. Mrs. Burch formerly was en- gagged in the restaurant business in Anchorage, her place being known as the Poodle Dog grill.

AIRPLANE SEARCH FOR
 HORSES UNSUCCESSFUL

Seven horses belonging to the Alaska Guides Inc, are lost in the hills in back of Anchorage. Sixteen of the horses belonging to the hunt ing organization, during the early part of July, wandered off, appar- ently in an effort to escape the mos quitoes, and only nine of the anil mals have been recovered. Of the horses recovered, two were in a badly run down condition as the re- suit of the attacks made upon them by mosquitoes, the bugs having kept the animals continually on the move, without an opportunity to feed.
 A plane was dispatched for a thorough search of the surrounding country but without seeing any thing that resembled a horse. The plane took the searchers to the head of Eagle river and over the lakes and glaciers in that district; over the Indian summit, to within a short distance of Tarnagain arm; across to the other side of Eagle river and down to salt water, talk ing in all streams along the way The plane was kept as near the ground as safety would permit most of the flying having been done at an altitude of about 400 feet with frequent dips close to treetop' to enable the searchers to peer through the foliage. If the horses were in the district visited, they were completely concealed by the foliage of the trees beneath whicf they had taken refuge from ths mosquitoes.

of Tarr Inlet the Canadian steam- ship lines could defeat the purpose of the Jones Shipping Law, namely that of preventing a Canadian snip carrying either freight or passen- gers from one United States port to another.
 The Canadian ship could take on passengers at Skagway, and instead of proceeding to Taku Glacier pure ly for the tourists benefit, they could proceed up Glacier Bay to the head of Tarr Inlet and show the tourists the glaciers that come down to the waters of Glacier Bay After touching at the Canadian GUS toms house they could proceed to Wrangell and continue to Vaneou- yer and Victoria.
 Railroad Feasible The potential value of this dis covery, however, is the more inn portant one. With the use of ther- init it is believed that an entry in to the Yukon could be gained by way of Chilkat Pass. A railway could be built up through this pass into Whitehorse, northward into Fort Selkirk and thence northward to Dawson City. Klondike and west ward to Region.
 Once through the Chilkat Pass the railway would be on the great Yukon plateau and not only in the heart of the highly mineralized area of the Yukon, but also in close proximity to many fertile valleys capable of producing large crops In very short period due to the long summer days.
 In so far as Northern British Columbia is concerned, this could be developed by branch line southward from Whitehorse or through the Chilkiot Pass.
 Thermit Comes In
 In order to accomplish this, how ever, a quicker recession of the glacier would be necessary. It is in this connection that Professor Barnes new discovery would be of inestimable value, for thermit, which is a mixture of aluminium and iron oxide, is capable of dis lodging millions of tons of ice in very short period. Tests made of thermit have shown that it can disrupt icebergs speedily, cracking and disintegrating h e massive blocks of ice much in the same manner as a volcano in eruption.
 With the discovery of thermit the presence of a glacier should no longer offer any serious obstacle to engineers laying down a railway. The clearing away of glacier should be far less expensive than boring a tunnel through the Rocky Mountains. And there are many such tunnels, the latest being the Great Northern Railway tunnel in the State of Washington.
 Thus it is that Canada proudly lays claim to the new territory do mated to her by nature. Her troubles have dissolved into thin air. She no longer needs to worry about how to give the Yukon and Northern British Columbia access to the sea. The gateway to the Yu- kon has been served to Canada on natures golden platter.

wing the Schools

Every good citizen must sympatblze with
the purpose, even if he disagrces with the
method, of the group OF men and women who
have organized to rescue the public school
system from the grasp Of Cofin and Ship. The
most serious Indictment that could be drawn
against this city is that it permitted its schools
10 get into hands ha were cher uncean or
ignorant as TO permit vendor Of vcntators or
purveyor Of jobs to control the entire system.
That situation is I'm itself denial of the
value Of education as a factor OF progress.
But It happened. nevertheless.
The schools at the present time vacillate
Between the suggestions of political boss and
the political manufacturer Of ventating sys-
tens.
Only very recently ba, the hand Of Coffin
become apparent in the control Of the schools.
He did moi permit his influence to become
known until he needed the Jobs to bolster up his
fastfailing machine
And it is significant that very many who
were complaccnt while he was running the
finances Of city and county became indignant
when he placed bossism on the pedestal Of the
pedagaCue.
There is one sure aud certain fact. The
present school commissioners are either too ig-
norant or worse to he permitted to direct the
schools of he city They were elected in wave
OF bigotry when every standard was forgotten.
They may be useful but their place is not in
the school system
Now comes group Of men and women who
declare that Coffin shall not corrupt the schools
as he has corrupted every other part of public
affairs with which he has had a part. Fathers
and mothers have asserted that no man who IS
free because Of the statute Of limitations oper
ated to conceal his attempted bribery Of
Governor is fit TO run the schools.
Not only Coffin but Coffnism must be ban
ished from the school system.
They must not be an adjunct to political
machines operated for senator's or governors or
potential governors.
Let it be hoped that the ticket of the group
of men and women who defy Coffin will be Of
such outstanding character that not even the
most thickskinned Of Cofin men would dare
to oppose them at the polls,
After that comes the more difficult task of
getting the votes counted

ATEW YORK-Colectors of art treasures live in

burglars.

Individual whereas the would-be artist travels in
small armies and has the burglars instinct for get

Manhattan I am told. fairly swarms with young
and women who believe they should be subsi-
died by rich art fanciers.
Furthermore. these youngsters. with the assurance
and front of book agent seek to storm the gates of
private galleries and collections. Some actually
coed in getting into the milliOnaires home to sketch
some treasured painting
A ND it is for this reason, more than any other,
n informed that the connoisseurs and mpor-
tant buyers seek to keep their names out Of the news
papers,
Sir Joseph Duveen for instance who is the worlds
most famous buyer of Paintings and who is bidder
at every important art auction, has been heard
to make verbal bid.
He has signal system which is understood only
by the auctioneer Few III the auction are even
aware that he has made bid. Sitting fairly close to
the auctoneer, he merely moves mis- lips slightly.
These movements caught by the person In
charge who replies with sort of nod. Thus trans
action is closed without the slightest publicity attend
ing.
THE other day it discovered for the first time
j. that certain Mr.. Harry Winthrop is none other
than Mr.. Henry Du Pont, the big powder man from
The south This revelation followed the paying of
$4,000 for a mahogany highboy-the highest figure
ever secured for single piece OF furniture And
mysterious Mr. Winthrop appeared the purchaser.
Believe it not none other than William Ran
doph Hearst attended this particular sale ncognito-
and was not recognized He was found to have used
the name of Wood.
IT is often incredible-at least to mellow so many
people whose and pictures forever in the
limelight escape recognition at public events

announcement carried list Of names OF celebrities

folk and autograph hunters ever assembled in Man

A RECENT disaster at the New York baseball

NEUSSOLINI is one Of those
Iva thrifty souls who overlook
nothing.
Whether it is a railroad in AL
oania, a treaty with the pope or the
estate Of an Italian laborer, II Duce
is right there to see that he gets
what is coming.
A claim has just been filed with
the surrogate of New York, by the
italian government for 5000.
The 5000 was saved up by Antonio
Comincio, who died four years ago
without heirs or will, and who re-
NAMED an alien, though he had
been in this country thirty eight
years.
The Italian government claims
that Antonio Comincio was sub
iect of King Victor Emmanuel at
the time, and that according to
Italian laws his estate should revert
to the crown.
According to American law, the
estate of a person who dies without
heirs or will, revertS to the public.
Under this law, New York has col
Iecter thousands of dollars from
aliens, as we'll as citizens.
The property is deposited with the
city chamberlain where it is held
twenty years for possible claimants.

Lame Ducks

The Senate has approved the Norris lame DUCK
amendment for the sixth time in recent years.
It now goes to the house, where leaders heretofore
have opposed it and accomplished its defeat.
What their attitude will be this time has not been
revealed There is no question as to what it should
be, however.
The house should adopt the amendment and give
the states opportunity to ratify it. No tenable argu-
ment can be advanced against changing the archaic
system which keeps a newly elected congress from
taking Office until thirteen months after election.
The amendment would have the new congress as
sembe annually on Jan. following the November
election The President would take Office Jan. 10
Men repudiated by their constituents would not be
able to remain in congress for more than a year.
House leaders have opposed the amendment be-
cause the presence OF lame ducks strengthens their
control Men who have been defeated and who are
not answerabe to the voters easier to handle than
those who have an election day ahead Moreover.
lame ducks frequently want government jobs, and It
behooves them to please those who can bestow them
House leaders should put selfish political consd-
erations aside when the amendment is considered in
the lower chamber.

nation It is to probe the inefcency of officials and
methods and the inadequacy OF machinery and laws,
which have made up, according to the President the
most lawless nation in the world. 1t is to tap the
reservoirs Of popular psychology which permit and
sustain this widespread lavlessness.
The cause Of the evil is in the people and the cure
is in the people
Therefore unless the people follow this inquiry
month by month and understand its evidence the re-
suits Of the investigation will be negligible There have
been plenty Of academic studies and solutions Of our
inept legal system in general and of prohibition in
particular and another such by this national commits
sion will not help mucn.
The whole practical problem is to let the people
what is wrong that the large group Of other
wise law-abding citizens the President calls them
will obey the laws.
Whether that entails further trial of the prohibit
ton experiment" or scrapping the experiment which
fails prove its worth the solution depends almost
completely popular support
To hear the evidence before this commission is the
peoples duty. incidentally, it is the peoples right

Control of Education

DEsPITE the fact they have
- signed a treaty the pope and
Mussolini do not seem to be in
complete accord, Mussolini claims
the state should control education
as a civil right.
While the pope claims the church
should control it as religious right.
The control of education is the
most important factor in life.
Every one in power aspires to It,,
and every one who wants power,
hopes for it.
Williams Jennings Bryan thought
that parents should exercise it.
Educators, arguing from the
standpoint of experiences, think that
they should have it.
AS a. matter of common sense, no
one ever has, or ever will control
education for any great length OF
time.
Education is a matter of growth.
It is compounded on the eXpe-
riences, discoveries and ideals OF
forgotten millions
The moment it comes under con-
troll it ceases to be the real thing.

ton thought, judging from the
manner he disappeared about his
business-or was it business?
The celebrated new city ordi-
nance which the mayor said would
lessen civic ills and speed business
expansion of this fair city, might
be all right if the 1900 or more
policemen would try to enforce it.
A ride about downtown streets any
night will disclose twenty to fifty
cars operating at unlawful speeds
and burning no lights.
It seems that cars in this city
either burn bright lights all the
time or none at all. Again it is
a common sight to see four people
crowded into the drivers seat. The
policeman who sees them-or, bet
ter said, who refuses to see them
permits the unlawfully laden car to
pass without molestation,
Why is it that on those widened
streets north autoists are permit
ted to drive at any speed they de-
sire when the city ordinance says
thirty miles an hour is the maxi
mum in the outlying districts. What
is stop or preferential street for,
if it doesn't mean the driver must
stop before driving into it?
There are many in this town who
believe that if the fellow who con-
tinually chants over the radio about
safety first, tells what he is sup
posed to be doing to make the
streets safe. would get his gang to-
gether and prevent speeding. pre-
vent double parking, and likewise
permit parking only on one side

ington under thirty feet in width,
and force motorists to put their cars
in garages instead of leaving them
in the streets all night without

he now is obtaining, through mis-
representation. from the taxpayers.
