THE ASSOCIATION OF QUARTZ WITH ORES BY DEAN PATTY,
 ALASKA COLLEGE

Jack and Larry were plOddlng

 after putting in hard shift in the
 tunnel. Jack dropped down on a big rock with the remark: Let's
 take five, Larry. l have been try ing to think, and I cannot walk and think at the same time-sort of a
 single track mind. guess you would
 call it." Larry dropped down neal : by, picked up a piece of quartz float lying on the trail and mechanically
 began breaking it between two
 rocks. then examining the fresh
 surface of s'color". Don't try to think too hard on an empty stom-
 ach, Jack. Doctor says it's bad for the digestion. Well, go ahead and get it off your chest
 sWlat I don't understand, Larry, 'S why quartz is so often associated with valuable ores. It seems to be pretty well understood by everybody that quartz and ore are almost uni |versallv associated but have never heard anyone attempt to explain why. Take one of the eastern sportsnaen who came out here hunt ing in the summers. Now, if one of those fellows was crawling along lon @ ridge to get pot shot at a bunch of sheep and he should sud
 ienly crawl across a quartz ledge he would immediately forget all about getting a shot at the sheep and bepin looking for gold
 Some but not all of them, Jack. I have seen some of these hunters who would rather get themselves a nice sheep than be president of the First National bank back in thell nome town

 'I'll admit that I am good and hungry but don't figure for min ute that you have me stuck" Larry retorted When I took the Short Course that winter at the College we talked about that subject quite a bit. Putting the explanation into my own words it is something like this:
 "The original home of the ore is in the signeous intru- sions, such as granite and monzon- ite. These intrusions were once deeper in the earth and were i'll molten condition. The geologlStS call these molten areas by the term These magmas contain the chemical clements which rocks are composed of and they also coll- tain minor amounts of such metals as copper, lead, silver, gold, etc. One magma may be particularly rich Ill gold, another in copper and some oi hem apparently have only very small quantities of the valuable metals.

Extend Pacific Highway to Alaska.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer.)

The Washington State Good Roads Association, now in session at Bellingham, is considering one lof it's major convention items the extension of Pacific Highway across Canada to the interior of Alaska.
 The association has been highly instrumental in giving this State admirable highway system. It is pleasing to know that its members are plan ming the extension of it's influence over broader fields.
 The Alaska Highway link would entail about $50 miles of new construction to give the States and Canada physical road connection with Alaska's
 interior. The bearing of such a link upon devel- opment in the Northern Territory is beyond estma- tion. If when the highway is completed it would place Fairbanks within three automobile days of Seattle. Keeping in mind the vast interchange of peoples and commodities which good roads have brought within the boundaries of the United States and between the United States and Canada, fore cast is possible of the eectrifying effects which highway connection would have upon Alaska Most of the construction would fall within Canadian territory. The local effect of this upon British Columbia and Yukon would doubtless be highly beneficial, but upon study it might be de- termined that, in view of the special interest of the United States in the project there should be some arrangement for cost apportonment that would
 involve treaty negotiations.
 These matters which could be settled as they arise. The important thing is that large and responsible group of good roads enthusiasts has given the matter semiofficial status It said to have the sympathetic interest of high members of the Canadian Government.
 Cooperating with the enterprising nation to our North, the project should be realized at distant date. When completed, it would do more than bind the States with this countrys Northern Empire; it would even firmly bind the two English speaking peoples of America in ties of friendship peace, neighbory intercourse and commerce. The Pacific Highway extension to Alaska should engage the active efforts of civic leaders and
 organizations on both sides of the international
 boundary.

SKAGWAY'S CONTRIBUTION.

It would not be neighborly if we refrained from making special mention of the wonderful flowers and vegetables and chickens and other specimens of creative genius that were sent from Skagway for exhibition at the Southeast Alaska Fair They speak volumes for the intelligence good taste and industry of the forcuturasts, agriculturalsts, etc, of the Gateway City For many years the people of Skag- way have earned the right of their town to be called the Flower City They have made the most of very favorable circumstances up there in grow ing beautiful flowers producing delicious vegetables and raising prize winning chickens. That Skagway is town of contented residents living in beautiful homes is apparent to who has seen the exhibits that have been sent from there to Juneau They have contributed tremendously to the beauty and interest of the Fair.

PAYING FOR THE INTERNATIONAL
 HIGHWAY.

The circumstance that most of the construction, and necessarily most of the cost of a highway through Canada connecting Alaska with the States would be in Canada has led to the suggestion that some of the cost of the road in British Columbia and Yukon Territory ought to be borne by the United States The Seattle Post-Inteligencer, in editorial in another place in this paper sug- gests this would be a proper matter for treaty negotiations And it would.
 The suggestion has been made that the road be built joint American and Canadian under taking The idea has been advanced that the two countries arrange for joint road commission to have full charge of the undertaking, including the location of the route from Fairbanks to the inter- national boundary at the 49th parallel and the construction of the road and that the cost be di-

vided a fifty-fifty, a sixty-forty, or some other equitable basis. Of course the road once constructed. each country would have jurisdiction over the mileage within it's boundaries
 If such a thing should be undertaken there would still be the problem of connecting those parts of the highway that would lie in Canada with Alaska coast towns. There ought to be roads from tidewater at Taku Inlet and Lynn Canal and, probably other points to connect with the main road. These would be proper matters for arrangement through the American and Canadian governments.

Sensible Prohibition Move.
(Trenton Times. )

Prohibition Commissioner Doran has announced that the use of rifles by Federal agents in urban areas and settled communities is to be discontinued as safety measure to reduce the hazard to "inno- cent bystanders" in the enforcement of the Eight eenth Amendment and the Volstead Act -
 Although no official regulation has been issued by his office, Commissioner Doran declares that here after prohibition agents to use only service pis- tos in cities and populous communities
 Records of the Prohibition Bureau show that 142 persons have been killed in enforcement activities since the prohibition laws became effective There is ground for hope that slayings will be apprecably reduced by means of the Commissioners insistence that all agents operating in congested areas rely upon the ordinary weapons used by local police

HIGH MONEY FAILS
TO BREAK MARKET
Selected Stocks Move Up
ward Despite Selling
Movement.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March 1e.-Call money.
advancing successfully from the re-
newal rate of 8 per cent to 9 and then
to 10 per cent, checked activity on the
stock market today, but did not bring
about a general reaction. Buying of
Anaconda and selling of Radio were
features. Anaconda, crossing 1877 was
at new high for all time. Radio new,
below 96, was at new low on the re-
action.
Baldwin added to it's spectacular gain
Of the day before, but on smaller
volume. The turnover fell below that
of Monday.
Radio was pressed for sale in the first
hour and dipped to a new low on the
reaction, but was not allowed to stay
there long. The pool resumed opera
lions cautiously, and the stock began to
creep upward toward yesterdays close.
The turnover was heavy and progress
was slow, but the selling was we'll alb
sorbed.
Other Strong Issues.
In other directions National Cash
Register, Underwood Elliot Fisher,
United States Realty and Lambert were
taken in hand by their respective spon-
sors. Once move was started it re-
ceived plenty of support. 1t was the
action of stock on the tape that made
1t friends rather than any developments
in its own prospects of financial con-
dition. The fact that these selected
issues we're able to move ahead SO easily
showed that money was not factor.
Despite another advance in the mar
ket for copper metal, good deal of
early realizing came into the standard
copper stocks. Anaconda and Kenne-
colt were especially affected. American
Smelling e. Refining, CRANKY Mining
and st. Joseph Lead pushed rapidly
forward.
In the utility group Western Union
made a good showing. The statement
of the president as to the competitive
status of the company In relation to
Radio put stop to the gossip about
Telegraph was higher and there was
g. Telegraph.
Rail Group.
The rails were heavy at the start, as
they have been for some time. Subse-
quently. however, they dvelopd better
tone. New Haven was well bought and
the feature of the lower-priced issues.
Baltimore & Ohio, rallied moderately,
but was held back by the now general
belief that only the regular dividend
would be declared at the meeting this
month. February earnings statements
are due in few days now and in most
instances they are expected to make
good comparison with those of a year
ago.
Money renewed at 8 per cent, which
was the rate for new loans yesterday.
Although demand was not especially
active. the rate was firm. Time money
was unchanged at per cent for all
maturities. with little business done.
