PREMIER CO. INSTALLING
 FLOOD PROTECTION DAM

Work on the big wing dam now under construction by the Premier Gold Mining Company near Fish Creek to protect the company's ore tramway from flood damage along the low-ly- ing river flats, is nearing con- pletion under the supervision of Charles Goldsburgh. The dam is located directly behind the Fish Creek Angle station and is designed to divert water running in the southeasterly channel back into the channel running in a southwesterly di- rection from that point. The overflowing of the southeastern ly channel onto the flats in the vicinity of Fish creek has sev- eral times threatened the tram and caused the company con- siderable trouble and expense in recent periods.
 The work is one of consider able magnitude on which a crew of five or six men and a caterpillar tractor have been employed for some time.

New Tram Cable Arrives

Twenty-three miles of heavy traction cable for the Premier aerial ore tramway, between the Premier mine and tide wat CT, arrived Wednesday on the Coastwise steamer Griffco, in addition to a large quantity of lumber and other supplies for the company. The cable will replace the cable now in use, which has seen 12 years of con- tinuous service.
 The work of stringing the huge cable will be a large un- dertaking and will require a considerable time and much la- bor.

kristovich Has Hard Trip.

Nick Kristovich, Tombstone Bay settler and fisherman, ar rived Thursday from the low CT Canal on the Taku II, after being picked up by that vessel in the vicinity of Engineer Point, during strenuous trip in his outboard motor boat from Hidden Inlet in stormy wealth CT, which he described as the worst he has ever seen on the Portland Canal.
 After getting on board the mail boat, Kristovich's boat, in tow of the larger vessel, was swamped by the heavy seas and most of it's contents, including part of his clothes and camping outfit, were washed overheard before they could be saved, entailing q considerable loss.
 Kristovich reported that Geo. Lemmons and Bert Bobo are camping at the entrance to Willard Inlet, near the mouth of the Canal. Nick said that campers on the beach are finding it rather tough rustling this winter, owing to the con- tinued bad weather and ab- sence of game. As an instance of the weather difficulties, he says Lemmons and Bobo in an open boat tried twice to go to Hidden Inlet for supplies but failed each time. The deer, usually numerous in that sect ion, have all but disappeared, doubtless owing to the bad weather on the coast and the wolves, which are very num- erous along the Canal.

Asseltine Describes Premier
 Ore Milling Processes

An interesting technical pap- CT describing the processes en- ployed in the milling of Pre- mier ores was read by Wm. Asseltine, Premier mill super intendent, at the three-day an- nual meeting of the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metal lurgy held in Vancouver com mencing November 30.
 MT. D. L. Pitt, manager of the Premier company and pres- ident of the Mining Associat- ion of British Columbia, well comed the delegates and de- livered the opening address of the session. MT. Pitt spoke on the founding of the mining in- dustry in B. c. and mine tax ation.
 MT. Pitt was also the toast master at the banquet which closed the session.

Shortest Day Of Year Passed

The winter solstice, marking the shortest day of the year, occurred Thursday and the days are again growing long CT instead of shorter, as is the case between the summer and winter solstices, the former of which occurs June 21.
 In astronomy, the winter sol stice also marks the beginning of the winter period, although we have had considerable real winter hereabouts for some time.

Mail Boat Encounters
 Severe Weather On Canal

Fierce Taku winds, combined with violent snow squalls, rain and other varieties of bad weather along the lower reach es of Portland Canal were re- ported by the crew of the mail boat Taku II, following the ar rival of that vessel from Ketch- ikan Thursday morning some five or six hours behind sched- ule.
 The trip from Lincoln Chan nel was described as one of the worst encountered on the run by anyone on board.
 The Taku II replaced the motorship Fairbanks, owing to the recent sinking of the latter vessel in Port Waller as re- Sult of an encounter With Ice while breaking her way into that port, where the ice was 7 inches thick over the bay. The vessel is now in drydock at Ketchikan undergoing re- pairs and will probably be back on the local run next week.
 Weather conditions along the Canal were so bad the Ia ku II was 12 hours in making the run from Hidden Inlet to Hyder, usually covered in 7 hours.

PITT SAYS NO CAUSE FOR
 WORRY OVER OUTLOOK

Questioned by a Vancouver publication regarding a story emanating from Stewart to the effect that the Premier might be forced to shut down if the Tacoma smelter suspends op- eration through being depr'ved of concentrates from the E it. tania mine, Dale L. Pitt, mana ger of the Premier company, is reported as saying that he does not see any cause for worry.
 The company, he said, is re- newing 23 miles of aerial tram cable and he expects operat- ions will proceed along normal lines, adding that in the nor mai course of events, Premier must eventually cease to ship ore either to the Granby sl elt- CT at Anyox or to Tacoma, as it will be more advantageous to put the remaining ore through the mill. He anticipates no difficulty in disposing of the concentrates.
 Regarding the ore on the 9th level, indications of whi Il were obtained recently by dia- mond drilling, MT. Pitt said a tunnel picked up only st, tag CT where the ore should be.

GARNER HAILED
!. BY BLANTON
AND MAY

4 Speaker John Garner, as the
Democratic nominee for President,
would sweep the country" Rep
resentative Tom Blanton (DJ, of
Texas. declared in flare-up in
the House yesterday over AL
Smiths statement he would &C.
cept the nomination if it is ten
dered to him.
Many Democrats applauded
when Blanton praised Garner. The
Speaker was not in the chamber
during the ovation, but entered
eas the discussion was drawing to a
close.
3 Sees Victory Sure
1 Representative May CD, of
Kentucky, said that with Garner
as the standard-bearer, I'VE will
surely win"
t Blanton precipitated the discus
sion of presidential possibilities
by declaring Smiths statement
''putS him. out of the running
before it gets started" Shouting
that he was against Smith and
Texas was against him, Blanton
declared:
"JOhn Garner will sweep the
country as surely as we live.
There is no man who can
touch him anywhere in the
United States as a leader Of
men on public questions"
Regarding former Governor
Smith, Blanton insisted it was his
views on prohibition that defeated
him in Texas in 1928. RepreSen-
.tative LaGuardia retorted the
cause was Smiths religion.
Calls Hoover "Wet"
Smith, at least, was frank in
declaring himself an anti-prohi-
bitionist. Blanton said, continu.
ting:
"Mr. Hoover, says nothing
and is a wet"
LaGuardia then injected prohi.
bition, serving notice that if the
Republican party does not adopt
Yan antiprohibition platform he
will bolt the party, and the next
move of antiprohibitioniSts will
be to refuse contributions to the
G. o. P campaign Golfers, La
Guardia said.

COUNTY To LIST
UNPAID TAXES

Advertising of properties on
which the taxes are unpaid in
Montgomery county will be
started this week in the county
papers, ]. Forest Walker, trea~-
urer has declared.
approximately $500 parcels of
property are listed. While this
list is longer than usual, it is due,
Mr.. Walker said, to the fact that
the State Legislature at its last
session passed law requiring the
separate listing of each parcel on
which taxes are due. Formerly
only one section of a piece of
property has been sold if it
brought enough to satisfy the
taxes.
If the delinquent taxes are not
paid by April IL, the property
will be sold at public auction at
the courthouse in Rockville, Mr..
Walker said. The law allows two
years from the date of sale for
redemption of the property by
paying the taxes and forfeits.

sphalerite and chalcopyrite could be separated. The concentrates could be trucked, during the sum- mer, to Mckinley Park station. Perhaps cheaper way would be to haul them by tractor in winter.
 Even with these favorable con- ditions and abundance of mineral, a warning note is sounded in the following significant words:
 "The cost of this part of the journey (by truck or tractor) would be nearly negligible compared to the cost of shipment to Seward by the Alaska Railroad, according to the present quoted rate of $1.63 per 1C0 pounds Cor $32.60 per ton) of lead concentrates for 5O,OOO-- pound minimum shipment from Mckinley Park station to Seward, and $1.22 for corresponding ship ment of zinc concentrates.

 Handicapped by lack of funds with which to purchase school sup plies, Mrs. Mclean appealed to w.. K. Keller, territorial school com- missioner, for the much-needed text books. MT. Keller lost no time in getting them to Kasilof, making up a consignment from a surplus at Fairbanks.

.FARTHEsT NORTH MILL
 ABOVE ARCTIC CIRCLE

The farthest north operating saWmill on the North American continent is located in Alaska, above the Arctic circle. The mill is owned and operated by Archie Ferguson, veteran Kobuk mining man. It is situated at Salawik, a village of 275 inhabitants on the eastern shore of Selawik lake, in northwestern Alaska, near Kotze- bue sound.
 The remote condition of the dis trict adds to mining a costly item in transportation expense which is not met in other areas favorably situated in proximity to rail anc watetr transportation. Thus the operation of the sawmill afford! the inhabitants there access tt the local timber supply
