COPPER

\
 The value of the copper produced l from Alaskan mines in 1928 is es- timated to have been $6,100,00O. This marks a decrease of about s1, ,150,000 over the value of the cop per produced by these mines in 1927 and a continuation of the decline in the production of copper in Alaska that has been more or less steadily in progress since 1923. In 1928, as in former years, practically all of the copper came from two mines near Kennecott, in the Copper River re- zion, and from one mine on Latouche Island, in the Prince William Sound region. These mines alone, accord ing to the published records of the Geological Survey, have yielded cop per worth s200,0O0,000 in the IS years or so that they have been ac- lively developed.
 In the vicinity of the known ore bodies at these mines extensive tests have been made to determine their extent and to disclose any other bod ies. The extent of the deposits that are being mined has thus been close ly mapped out. No notable new ore bodies are reported to have been dis covered during the year. Although large parts of the known ore bodies osY &O ha mi, h, ing depleted each year, so that, un- less new deposits are found, a still further decrease in the output of cop per from Alaska is inevitable. That there are in the Copper River region, as we'll as in other parts of Alaska. other deposits that hold promise of profitable development seems likely, and prospecting work is in progress at a number of these places. The successful development of a large copper mine, however, is an expen- sive and time-consuming task, and none of the prospects that are now being exploited appear to have yet reached such a stage that their fu- ture can be predicted with certainty.
 SILVER
 Most of the silver produced in AL aska during recent years has been recovered from the copper ores, in fact, during 1927, the latest year for which complete reports are available. over three-quarters of the silver came from that source. With the great reduction in the output of cop per ore in 1928 the quantity of sil- yer naturally shows corresponding decrease. The greater output of gold from both lodes and placers resulted in a slight increase in the amount of silver that is associated with the gold obtained from them. The quan- lode or placer gold is, however, rela- lively so small, and silver is so low in price, that the increase in output of gold means an increase of only few thousand dollars in the value of the silver recovered from those sources. Some silver is also recovered from ores that are principally valuable for the lead and silver they contain. Most of the ore of this sort is mined in the Hyder district in southeastern Alaska, and is shipped to smelters in the states for treatment. Silver-lead ores are, however, known in widely separated parts of the Territory and some mining and prospecting is in progress at several places on ores of this type. The high cost of trans portation and treatment discourages development of or search for these ores except in the more accessible parts of Alaska.

SENATEPASSES "P00R CONVICT"
 MEASURE , TO 3
Dim ond Makes Strong Speech for Pet Measure
 Resolution Is Tabled

The Senate yesterday passed Di- mond's poor convict" bill by a vote of five to three. Senators Anderson, Dimond, Frame, Ben- iamin and Sundquist voted for anG Senators Dunn, Hess and Steel against the bill
 Senator Dimond spoke for about 90 minutes defending the measure He argued that it was designed to aid law enforcement, refuting argu- ments that it would tend to break down enforcement. He pointed out that longer jail sentences rather than fines are considered the best deterrents to law violations. The bill, he added. is designed to put the poor man on the same footing with those who have money.
 The Senate tabled it's resolution directing the Attorney General to eodify the Session Laws of Alaska and the Compiled Laws. There was wide difference of opinion among the members as to how far this work should go, and how much of 1t should be required of the Attor- ney General.
 The Senate considered in second reading Benjamin's bill to boost license taxes on all classes of non resident fishermen to $50. The Committee on Fisheries, of which Senator Benjamin is chairman, rec commended the bill be amended to apply to trollers only, leaving un- changed existing rates on other classes of fishermen. The amend ment provides $50 rate for one line trolling boats up to 20 feet long, and $50 for boats over that length and using more than one line. This measure was continued in second reading for the day.
 Frames measure providing for a shipping subsidy in Cook Inlet vat CTS, carrying an appropriation of $10,200, passed in second reading.
 President Steel appointed Sena- tors Frame, Hess and Benjamin to represent the Senate on the Legis- lative Committee to confer with Secretary Karl Theile relative to continuance or discontiiuance of the Territorial work heretofore per- formed by his office. House mem bers on the committee are: Shat tuck, Tarwater and Lomen.
 Two new measures were intro duced by Senator Dimond in the Senate yesterday. One of these in-

HIGH SCHOOL PUPILS WORKING HARD ON THE
 DECLARATION CONTEST

Students at the High School are beginning intensive work on the Southeast Alaska Defamation Con- test to be held here on April 16 Elimination contests will be held on Friday afternoon at the High School, when the contestants are expected to be reduced to two. Later the better of the two will be chosen to represent Juneau in the final contest.
 Representatives are expected to be here from the High Schools in Ket- chikan, Sitka and Petersburg. No word has been received from the Wrangell or Douglas high school concerning their participation in the contest.
 Last year the contest was held in Petersburg and the year before in Ketchikan. Juneau has won the cup twice and much interest is felt this year since if Juneau wins, a third time, the cup will remain here.

MILL OPERATION
 DELAYED FOR FEW
 DAYS BY WEATHER

The Juneau Lumber Mills is all ready to start operations for the season. The plant is in readi- ness, crews have been engaged and logs are in the mill pond awaiting the breaking of the weather to more moderate conditions.
 It was planned that the mill would start operating on April 1, but the prevailing cold snap will hold up the start for a few days, it was today announced by com pany officials.
 Several rafts of spruce and hem lock logs that have been secured on the flats over the winter were recently lowed to the mill pond. Material to supply the mill for some time is assured by the logs on hand.
 The mill is now in a more mod ern condition than in the past. new installations have been made and the equipment has been completely overhauled.
