He hopes that start car be made in time to permit thu work of boring tunnel to be "un- derground' by next winter.
 Tn the Ketchikan district, cor. siderable survey work is necessary Mir. Fla said.
 A large force of men will be pu to work by the Zellerbach peopl, here this summer, he commented

 FOR FINAL CLASH
Property of Leaders of h. surrection Is to Be
 Con6scated

MEXICO CITY, March I2.-Stiff opposition to the Federal advance appeared likely as reoei troops are concentrated heavily at Torreon to meet the northern drive of Fed eral General Gales.
 General Amazon, Federal Com- mander at Monterey, announced he IS planning an advance on Saltillo with his army of 10000 men in an effort to drive back the insurgents on their Torreon base.
 Government officials generally belief that the rebel movement will ntegrate rapidly as Federal forces approached but the revo.ution leaders gave every indication of putting up strong re- sistance.
 Tn Sinola, insurgents are con- tinuing cautious advance from the Southern Pacific Railway toward Mazatlan where 1000 Federals are strongly entrenched.
 The Government has announced confiscation of the property of the Chief rebel leaders. Gen. Cruz, Gen. Manzo and Gen. Aguirre, as well as the property of Gov. Fausto Topete of Sonora. The property is valued at several hundred thou sand dollars.

 As the Commissions authority in Alaska is exercised through the Forest Service, Assistant District Forester B. F.

HELENA, Mont, March 12.-Jo- sepf K. Toole, aged 78 years, Mon- tana's first governor after State hood, died last night as the re- suit of heart attack. He had been confined with stomach disorders for months.
 One of the most active figures in the pioneer days of Montana, Joseph Kemp Toole succeeded in having his name written on many pages of that states history and became it's first elected governor
 He had just passed his Fist birth day anniversary when he was elec- ted a district attorney and before reaching the executive mansion had served two terms in the terri torial legislature and as delegate to the 18th and 5Oth Congresses. An indefatigable worker for Mon- tana's statehood, Goveror Toole de- voted most of his energies to that end while a delegate in Congress and accomplished much toward the passage of the states enabling act
 With the admission of Montana to the Union and his four years in Congress at an end, he returned to his home and became the Demo cratic candidate for governor ir

Patronage to Be Distribut- ed by the Hoover
 Administration
METHODS TO BE USED
 NOT YET ANNOUNCED
Sch em e Is to Prevail in Other Parts of Coun-
 try, 1t Is Said

WASHINGTON, March 12.-Rec- ognition of the leaders of the Hoov- CT Democrats of the South, in the matter of Federal appointments in that section, are likely to be adopt ed by President Hoover as car dinal policy.
 There are also indications that in the Eastern and Western States, regular organization leaders will be required to consult, on appoint ments, those who had charge of the Hoover preconvention cam paign, in those cases where men are not now identified with the regular State party leadership.
 While there has been no formal announcement of methods to be pursued in selecting Federal off cers in the States south of the AGason-Dixon line, the general ex- pectation is this will be largely in control of the committee for each State in which the Hoover Demo- crats have a membership.
 The plan of handling the pat ronage is being tried out in New York State where Edmund Mac hold. State Chairman; Charles D. Hilles, Republican National Com mitteeman and William Hill. lead CT of the Independent Hoover for President organization are func- tioning. A number of appoint ments, including three Judgeships to be made in New York State, are ready for action, but so far the committee has not yet made recom- mendations.

 IS PUBLISHED
Bradleys Review Condi- tions of Alaska Juneau
 Cow Expand

There was an increase in 1928 in the amount of development work done, and in the amount of stopa area cut over the preceding year in the Alaska Juneau mine, according to the annual report of P. R. Brad ley, Consulting Engineer of the company, which has just been re- ceived here. The operating sur plus for the year was $980,09921, as compared to STITCHED for the previous year.
 In President F. w. Bradley's re- port to the stockholders, he says "the assurance of continuous and substantial profits justifies the poll icy of expanding operations over the mining field tributary to Ju- neau."
 STATEMENT OF EARNINGS
 The company's statement of earn ings for the year showed mineral recovery of S3,316,01ss9 and gross operating profit of $1,l56. .799.50. After deducting interest charges on the funded debt and loan accounts, and plant depreciation the com panys operations for the year showed net profit before deple- ton of $781 ,106.13
 In MT. P. R. Bradley's report it was said: "In the year 3,718,140 tons of ore were trammed to the mill; 92.4 per cent of this was from the south half of the Alaska Ju- neau mine; 6.3 per cent from the north half: and 1.3 per cent from the Ebner property.
 "Twenty-three powder drift blasts were made in the year using 198.- sS50 peunds Of powder ;4Ssn aosditis14 bulldozing con SUI med 1.062, 300 pounds, making total powder consumption of .34 pounds per ton trammed. The powder used in drift blasting was less by TABOO pounds than the consumption in the previous year, yet there was an increase of 6,000,000 to 100000 tons of the amount of broken ore remaining in the south ore body over the amount in the same stopes on December 31, 1927
 From the ore tranmed to the mill, 51.72 per cent was rejected as waste and the balance, 48.28 per cent was fine milled.
 "Tae overall recovery of gold was 76.36 per cent of the assay value of the rock trammed; and the re- covery of the ore fine milled was 34.66 per cent of its assay value.
 The corresponding figures for the previous year were 70.46 per cent and 81 go per cent respectively; in- creased extraction for the year 1928 is due to increased metallurgical efficiency in the mill and in part due to the fact that recovery in creases as the grade of ore in- creas."
 PRESIDENTS REPORT President Bradley's report to the stockholders follows in part: Operating profits of your com- pany for the year 1928, before in- terest and depreciation, totaled S1,- 566, ,79950. During the first half of the year, the property yielded at a better rate than the last half, but the assurance of continuous and substantial profits justifies the policy of expanding operations over the mining field tributary to Ju- neau, Alaska.
 Tn pursuing this policy we have taken working development options in two prospects so located that all work can s5c supervised from the fC1~+;,,,x,l o,, Dooo E1i0hf1
