C. P. R. Engineers to
 Survey Peace Route

The Canadian Pacific Rail- way is intending to send a sur vey party from Hazelton east ward in the direction of the Peace River Block, according to an article in a recent issue of the Prince Rupert News. The announcement has attract ed attention here and in Stew art, as indicating another step in the much-talked of Peace River outlet. The report states that the survey party will fol- low the water route most of the way, with the object of secur- ing information relative to an outlet via Hazelton, supposed to extend from Finlay Forks by way of the Amineca, Fall Creek, Takla and Babine Lakes, Kispiox and Skeena Riv- CTS, and connecting with the c. N. R. at Skeena Crossing.
 Locally the report is inter preted as indicating a possible hooking up with the c. N. R. survey from Stewart through Bear River Pass into the Mass valley.

Alaska Officials Holding Over

The Judiciary Committee of the Senate failed to report on the nominations of Judge G. J. Lomen and Marshal Charles D. Jones, both of Nome. As a re- suit no action was taken on their appointments and they will continue to serve in their respective capacities. Altho the terms of Judge Cecil H. Clegg of the Fourth division, and Marshal Harvey Sullivan, of the Third division, expired a year ago, they have not yet been reappointed and neither have their successors been named. As a consequence they will continue to serve until their successors have been named and confirmed.

HYDER ALASKA. SATURDAY, APRIL Il, 1881.
Premier to Suspend
 Marmot Activities

Mining operations of the Pre- mier Gold Mining Company on the Prosperity and Porter Idaho properties in the Mar mot River section are to be entirely closed down, pending a revival of silver prices, it be- came known here Thursday.
 At the time of writing a DOT ton of the crews employed had been laid off and the remain der are expected down within a few days, leaving only watchmen to safeguard the company property. The shut down will involve a total of about 80 men and will be the most severe setback to the camp since the silver slump began.
 It is understood that the com pany made no more than an even break on it's Marmot op- eration last month, owing to low silver prices, and this fact is believed to have been the primary cause for the order to suspend activities, although the recent annual report of the Premier company intimated that such action might be found necessary if silver prices continued low.

Starting Work on Chickamin

Messrs. George Lemmons, Ol- iver Thornton, c. N. Crone and w. w. Metcalf left Thursday for the Chickamin Glacier sec tion to start development act ivities on the promising Met calf and Fiandley free milling gold property on Banded Mt.
 Joe Fendley, Bert Bobo and Ole Twedt went ont to the property a week or so ago with supplies.
 A recent letter to the Herald from c. L. Hubbard, Seattle capitalist, who is financing the development activities, says it is the intention to go ahead on the property this summer and he hopes to open up something that will benefit the district.

Permit for Big Portland Canal
 Power Plant is Granted

The Federal Power Com mission has granted the appli- cation of the Portland Canal Power Company to utilize the waters of Davis River for it's big hydro-electric power pro- ject, according to radio news reports from Washington, D. C., Wednesday evening, which were later confirmed by a tel egram received by Oren F. Hill from Willis T. Batcheller, pres ident. of the Portland Canal Power Company.
 The message, forwarded from Washington, D. C., said the permit had been granted and also announced the trans fer of the permit from the Commonwealth Mining Com pany, original applicant for the right to use the water of Davis River for power development purposes, to the Portland Can al Power Company, actual de- veloper of the big project.
 The telegram stated further that MT. Batcheller was going to New York to close the con- tracts. The meaning of the lat ter phrase is somewhat ob- scure, as it may refer either to the financing of the project or to the contracts covering the large electrical equipment nec- essary to the contemplated in- itial development of 10000 horse power.
 No more gratifying news has ever come to the camp than the

BILL WOULD AMEND
 COMPENSATION ACT

A bill carrying amendments to the Territorial Workmen's Compensation Act designed to raise compensation to depend ants of unmarried employees to the same base rate as now provided for married employ ees, has been introduced in the Alaska Legislature by Rep. Nerland, o1 Fairbanks. The measure also requires the pay ment of the same amounts of compensation for injured or killed employees with foreig:, dependents as for Americ m citizens.
 The first amendment pro- poses to raise the amount to be awarded to dependents of de- ceased unmarried employees from $1,800 to $4,5OO; the last sum being the amount al- lowed to married employees without minor children.
 The second amendment seeks to change the amount award ed to dependents of unm;ar- ried employees not citizens of the United States and residing in foreign countries, now fixed at 50 per cent of the amount for unmarried Americans and 60 per cent for married ones. The Nerland measure proposes full payment in both cases. The bill also provides for the escheatment of compensation to the Territory when no heirs appear within one year.

announcement that the way is now clear for the commence ment of actual construction work on project which prom ises to have a vast influence on the future mining and in dustrial development of the Portland Canal mining district.
 Just how soon the projected activities will be started is not determined at this time. Mes sages received from MT. Batch eller by the Chamber of Com merce in February said the company expected to inaugu- rate active work on Davis Riv- CT within 30 days after the granting of the permit, which was then expected to be forth coming about March 1.
 As the issuance of the per init was delayed much beyond the anticipated time, it is prob able that the company has al- ready completed much of the preliminary arrangements in the interval and will get into action on Davis River within a brief period.
 Recent reports from reliable sources indicated that the com pany had purchased creosoted piles for use in the construct ion of it's projected dock at Davis River and also that Capt. R. E. Stickler, owner of the power boat used by the com pany last year, has been en- ployed to bring the piles here on a scow.

Little Prospect for
 Early Catle Transfer

A prominent Army official expresses the opinion that there is very little prospect, at least for several years to come. of the sale to private interests of the Washington-Alaska mil itary cable and telegraph syst em, according to advices from Washington, D. c. An act io permit this sale was introduced in the last session of Congress, but the bill was not reported out of committee in either the Senate of House, and of course died with the adjournment of Congress on March 4. While it may be reintroduced in the ses- sion to convene next December, t is expected that the protests and objections from Alaska and Seattle will be sufficiently strong to prevent favorable action upon the part of Con- greSs.

A ] a k a Officials
 Get Salary Increase

In the closing of the last ses, sion of Congress the salaries of the Governor of Alaska and Secretary of the Territory were increased from S7,000 and $3,, 800 to S10,000 and $5,600 re- spectively. The bill for in- creasing the Governors salary was first passed in the Senate but failed of passage in the House because of the opposi- tion of Delegate Sutherland. He did not object to the in- crease but objected to the pres ent incumbent receiving the higher emolument. The salary of the Secretary was increased in the House, without object ion, to S4, 400. When the bill reached the Senate an amend ment passed to make the sal ary $5.600. It was then that a further amendment was of fered increasing the salary of the Governor to S10,000, which
 passed. When the bill was re- turned to the House Delegate Sutherland agreed not to ob- ject to its passage. In addition to the salary, the Governor has the use of a Mansion" and receives several thousand dol lars annually to maintain 1t.

One disease which strikes fear into
the minds Of every parent and indeed
Of most physicians Is the rheumatic
fever Of childhood. Associated with
this there are almost invariably In
fections Of the lining Of the heart or
the development Of the condition
called acute e~ndocarditiS.
DR.. John Lovett Morse has recently
analysed 100 cases Of rheumatic te-
e with inflammation Of the heart
occurring In his practice during some
Is years. Twelve Of the patients were
seen before 1906, 20 after 1905 and
before 1911, 10 after 1910 and before
1916 and 28 after 1915 and before
1921. He finds ct this time that SO
Of the 100 are dead and three are
permanent invalids. The remaining
81 are alive, and in 81 Of them the
hearts are apparently normal; in 10.
tho hearts show slight damage; In
six It was impossible to obtain re-
examination Of the heart.
DR.. Morse recognises the possibility
Of criticism to the effect that the pa
tients who are fully recovered and
without signs Of heart disease were
perhaps wrongly diagnosed at the
time they were sick. He points out,
however, that correct diagnosis was
probably made in the So who died,
and that therefore there Is just as
much reason to believe that the cor
rect diagnosis was made in those who
lived.
His figures offer hope to the par
ent who has q child suffering with
this disorder. DR.. Morse is convinced
that the last word has not been said
on this subject. He feels that heart

before their eyes the spectacle of
armed aggression by Japan in Nam
churia and the certain knowledge
that the japanese, for a number Of
reasons, are not basically friendly
to the United States, no matter what
appears on the surface.
The Japanese land grab and Nip
ponese flouting OF world opinion and
the League Of Nations, is ample proof
that might still makes right among
nations, regardless Of their diplo-
matte declarations. This lends the
color of patriotism to GARDENERS
statements just as Hoover's stand for
adequate protection at a minimum
of cost establishes his own and ap-
peals to the national pocketbooks as
we'll.
At best the result will be indecisive
for, important as it is, it cannot be
made a political question.
Every politician who deals with the
subject will take a fortnight stand
for a navy adequate for all purposes
and a reduction in taxes.

abb Gilbert $m

New York, Nov. I'm the half
light Of the Metropolitan Opera
House. three flunkies were brushing,
busting and otherwise polishing the
socially consecrated arc known vari-
ously as 'the diamond: horseshoe"
and "the golden horseshoe"
In this half light, the bent arc
seemed very much like any other ar
rangement Of boxes in an old-fash-
Toned theater. The workers went
around their tasks with the mechan-
ical movements Of any servant pol
ishing any bit Of brass rail.

But any day now, New York's May
fair will know that another social
season IS officially under way because
gems sparkle from these boxes; be-
cause elegantly gowned dowagers
promenade the corridors between
acts Of the opera or exchange greet
ings with the other box-holders.
This, according to the Manhattan
traditions, is the great spectacle Of q
social year; a spectacle at which q
large section Of the hoi-polloi tries to
look on, fighting for seats or for
standing room. A box at the Me
has long been the goal Of every am
bilious lady of the social set. With
the result that sales are rare, and
prices fabulous. A sort Of royal line
waits for those extremely ~infrequent
opportunities when q Met box be-
comes obtainable.
The red tape connected with the
getting Of such q box would make
even an immigration officer stop to
ponder. It isn't just a matter Of put
ting up the cash and moving In. Oh,
indeed no!
