GOOD RESULTS ON
 PREMIER BORDER

Encouraging results are re- ported from the diamond drill ing campaign now in progress on the Northern Light group of the Premier Border Gold Min ing Company, adjoining the the famous Premier mine.
 Values disclosed by the drill cores recently are said to have ranged from $3,16 to over $56 in from one to five foot sect ions.
 The drilling is to be continued with a view to thoroughly ex- ploring the porphyry areas ad- jacent to the head of the main tunnel.

RYDER LUMBER MILL
 MAKES EARLY START

The Hyder Lumber Company saw mill resumed its lumber producing activities Tuesday morning after the usual winter shutdown. The resumption of operations occurred three weeks earlier than last year in response to an excellent spring lumber demand, especially from the Stewart district.
 The company officials are looking forward to a more than normally active season of lum- Der production.

STEWART RESIDENT
 PASSES AWAY

George A. Fraser, prominent resident of Stewart and a pion- ger business man of the dist rict, reached the end of life's way in Victoria last Sunday, according to advices received in Stewart. Death eliminated a long period of illness result ing from diabetes and occurred while MT. Frazier was asleep.
 Mr. Fraser was aged 63 years. He was engaged in the drug business in the district since 1919, coming here from Victor ia, where he was in business for many years. He was at one time prominent in politics and was a member from Grand Forks in the first Mcbride gov ernment.

ALASKA JUNEAU
 HAS BANNER YEAR

Showing a total production of $3,500,000 in round figures, the Alaska Juneau Gold Min ing Company in 1929 expert encad the most remarkable year in it's notable history. The production was approximately S300,000 more than that of 1S- 98. The net profit before de- preciation was $1, 100000, or almost $200,00O larger than in 1928, when the net was $920,- 900.
 The Juneau mines output for the year was virtually as large as that of all the other gold mines, including lode, placer and dredging operat- ions, in the entire territory. The total production for the year of all gold mines was slightly in excess of $7,000,000. The ton mage trammed and that milled was slightly larger than in 19- 28. There was trammed out of the mine last year 3,840,00O tons as compared to 3,700,000 tons for the preceding year. Of this quantity 100000 tons was milled, some 100000 tons more than in 1928. The force maintained during the year av- eraged 665 men per day. The payroll, including bonus paid for this force, carried an ex- penditure of S1,350,000, or

SAYS ALASKA MINING
 SHOWING GAIN

Alaska mining is showing a gain, according to B. D. Stew art, supervisAlg mining engin- ger and federal mine inspector for Alaska. In a recent state ment, MT Stewart said more prospectors were in the field in 1929 than for the last 20 years he had been in the territory. MT. Stewart regards both the Alaska and Talkeetna mount ain ranges as very likely pros pecting areas for the future. About the most important thing to encourage prospecting, as he sees it, is the extension of trails so that access may be had to new country. Building of trails, he believes, is of moro importance than customs mills or sampling works.

ASSERTS UNITED EMPIRE
 OUTLOOK GOOD

Four feet of good ore across the face of the tunnel and val ues at depth much greater than near the surface, are the out standing statements of the an nual report of the United Elm pire company, as presented to the directors by managing di- rector Wm. Damn, covering the work done on the United Elm pire property during 1929.
 When work ceased last year there was four feet of good are across the face of the tunnel, the report says. At this point the vein is six feet wide. Sam ples taken by several engin- eers, including two government engineers, across from 24 to 27 inches of the vein gave returns running up to POT ounces to the ton in gold and silver, in ad- dition to lead and zinc, the re- port states.
 Extension of the present drift for 150 feet, MT. Damn stated, should bring the workings un- der the spectacular high grade croppings. After driving the additional distance, the high grade could, in his opinion, be mined at comparatively low cost. With this work done the face of the tunnel would be about 160 feet below the sur face. To date values at depth have been much greater than those near the surface, and it is believed by engineers that his will continue to be the case in this ore shoot.
 The financial condition of the company was reported as fav- orable and activities will be continued during the coming season, according to the offic- ials.

FIRST DIVISION SHOWS SMALL GAIN
 IN POPULATION

Preliminary returns of the 1880 census issued by the gov ernor disclose that Hyder is the seventeenth town among the forty-one communities of the First Division in point of popu- lation. Juneau ranks first on the list with population of d,015, Ketchikan is in second place with 3,780 residents; :; Petersburg is third with 1,217, and Sitka is in fourth place with 1,053. Juneau also poss- ess the largest population of any town in the territory. As the returns from the Second, Third and Fourth divisions are not in, the populations of Nome and Fairbanks are not deter mined, but it is conceded that the capital city is the largest in the Territory, with Ketchikan and Fairbanks in second and third place. Juneau gained 958 in the ten years since the 1920 census, despite heavy losses following the closing down of her mines some years ago. Ketchikan gained 1922 in the past decade.
 Six of the seven recording districts in this division show a gain in population, the Sitka district alone showing a loss since the 1920 census. The re- duction for the Sitka district was 365, and 172 for the town of Sitka. Chichagof, with a population of 172 in 1920, lost 103. A few other smaller places also lost in population.
 The net gain for the First Di- vision was 1,736.

HIGHWAY BILL IS
 PASSED BY HOUSE

The great project for an in- ternational highway between the United States and Alaska through British Columbia was advanced another stage with the passage by the House of Representatives of the Suther- land bill providing for a spec ial commission to study the proposed construction. As in- troduced, the measure carried $25,000 for the purpose but this was reduced to S10,000 by the house, according to Wash ington news reports.
 The bill authorizes the pres ident to appoint three special commissioners to cooperate with a Canadian commission t. determine whether the pro- posed highway is economically practicable. The results of the study are to be reported to Congress.
 The bill is now before the Senate for final action.

MORE NOMINATIONS
 AT NEXT PRIMARY

An increase in the number of candidates for elective offices 10 be nominated at the primary election April 29, is a notice- able feature of the official notices of the election posted this week by the US. Commiss- ;oner.
 In previous primary elections the list included only eight nominations for each political party, namely one for delegate to Congress, one for territorial senator, four for representa- tives to the Alaska legislature and two for divisional road commissioners.
 Additions made by the 1929 legislature to the number of elective offices in the Territory have now increased the num- Der of party candidates to be selected to eleven. As a result, the list now includes nominat- ions for the following:
 Delegate to Congress
 Commissioner of Education.
 Territorial Highway Engineer Territorial Auditor
 One divisional senator Four members of legislature Two divisional road commiss- toners.
 Under the order of election made by the U. s. Commission CT, the entire Hyder recording district is made one voting pre- cinct for the purposes of the primary. The polling place will be Chamber of Commerce Hall.

INDIANS LOSE IN
 EFFORT ID SUE US.

Efforts of the Tlingit and
 Haida Indians of southeastern Alaska to institute suits against the United States for alleged alienation of hunting, fishing, trapping, timber and land rights, the latter embracing large areas of improved water front land, were given a sharp setback in the House of Rep- resentatives a few days ago when the house committee on claims killed the bill intro 1uced recently by delegate
 jutherland permitting them to -ue the federal government for he loss of the alleged rights, which they contended were granted the tribes by the Rus sians plior to the acquisition of Alaska by the United States.
 The measure is said to have been introduced by the dele gate at the instance of Judge James Wickersham, present candidate for nomination for delegate to Congress, who, with William L. Paul, was en- ployed by representatives of the Indian tribes to prosecute the suits.
 The measure was introduced last month and was promptly referred to the claims commit ee. Itswould have opened the way for a wide field of actions against the government, as it authorized the tribes to sue either jointly or separately in one or more actions at any time within five years from it's pass age and approval and set aside practically all limitations tend ing to hinder or prevent such actions.

ROWLAND GIVES PORTLAND CANAL
 FINE BOOST

Declaring a conviction that the Portland Canal country will become a great mining center, John Hovland, pioneer mining man and president of the Unicorn Mines company, gave the camp splendid boost in an interesting paper on To- cal mining development read by him before the Seattle Min ing Club February 8.
 MT. Hovland, as reported by the Alaska Weekly" gave a general outline of practically all the more important local development activities, in ad- dition to brief history of the district from the time of the discovery of the mineral depos it's in 1898 down to and includ-. ing the discovery of the great Premier mine, of which he was one of the first explorers, and also outlined the general geo. logical conditions in their relat- ion to the ore occurrences. The paper also referred to the lead ing properties in the Bear, Sal mon and Texas creek areas and described their location.
 In conclusion he said with ref erence to the possibilities of the district:
 'It is true that it has been very slow and expensive to de- velop, but that condition should now be overcome owing to the knowledge we have gained from the development of the Premier mine and the adjoining property, the B. c. Silver. From an investment standpoint, it seems to me that person will get a better run for his money in an old and es- tablished district where he would have to face all the diff faculties involved in developing a mine in a new district"

GEORGIA RIVER GOLD
 PROSPECTS PROMISING

Development activities during
 the past year on the Georgia River properties of the Georgia River Gold Mines gave satis- factory results, while work in January of the present year developed more encouraging results, according to a recent authoritative statment in the south.
 More favorable ground was encountered on January 4th, when the course of the vein changed to the east. On Janu- ary 9th a foot of ore was struck which assayed $2.80 gold :; S12.60 copper, a total of $15.- 40. The vein contracted later, only to again widen out to 1-2 feet. Some ore from the latter portion of the lead ran over S43.OO per ton, the statement asserts. This was practically all gold. The average, however, was slightly over $11 per ton.
 AS reported earlier in these columns, it is now fairly defi- nitely established that this vein has no connection with the im- portant Southwest vein. It is probably the downward exten- sion of a vein which outcrops in Goblet Creek between the Bull lion and Southwest veins and to which no importance was at tached. Further work is being done to determine the propor- tionS of this vein, the encount- ering of which was entirely un- expected.
 Summarizing the situation, the statement says that while it cannot be said as yet that commercial ore body has been established in the No. 3 level, the outcome is encouraging. and undoubtedly, the ore al- ready uncovered will yield a considerable tonnage, and in view of what has occurred at this stage of it's progress, very important results may be ex- pected when the main object i've of the development plan now in effect is reached that is, the underground explofat- ion of the area in the vicinity of the intersection of the South west, Bullion, and the Main veins. Unusual weather condit- ions forced curtailment of op- erations earlier in the winter. Ice on the trail and other diff ficulties incident to weather conditions made transportat- ion difficulty and the trans portation of supplies impossi- ble. Work in the meantime has been done by hand.
