Lccal Prospectors Find Rich
 Ore in Nevada Camp

The Nevada City Nugget, of Nevada City, California, has the following to say of widely known local prospector who is now located in the famous old California camp.
 Two prospectors, Mesgrs. Dan Canavan and Charles Jcep, came into the Nugget of office with something worth mentioning in the shape of four beautiful pieces of w h i t e quartz freely shot with gold Of the "jewelry rock" type. The specimens were taken from an open cut on a lead which aver ages from three and a half to eight feet in width. Assays from ore the same as the samp- les runs from $8 to $40,000 a ton. It also carries copper sul- phides. The men have done considerable developm n work on the property. They have run an open cut for dist ance of 400 feet. Part of the cut is about 30 feet deep. There are at least seven leads on the same hill all running parallel. Water is taken from one of the N I. D. ditches for washing of gravel.

Mount Shishaldin Still Active

After more than two months of violent activity, Mt.

The roar of the crater can be heard from three two five miles.
 Shishaldin became violent January 21, throwing out a pail of smoke that extended fifty miles. Fire and smoke are said to have transformed the vol- cano into a giant lighthouse. The eruption is said to be com parable with the great blowup of Mt. Katmai in 1912.

OSCAR NELSON
 PASSES AWAY

Oscar Nelson passed away in his home in the Forest addition shortly before noon Wednes- day after a long illness due to the insiduous malady known as pernicious anaemia. The de- ceased had been in i'll health for several years. During the past few months he became increasingly worse until he be- came virtually helpless a few weeks ago. Following his in- expectation, he was looked af- ter by kind-hearted neigbors until death ended his long per iod of suffering. Lue German and Oscar Larsen were with him when death closed the fin al chapter of his life story. The deceased was a native of Sweden and aged about 55 years. Little is known of his an- tecedents beyond that he had resided in Canada for a consid- erable number of years before coming to this district about ten years ago. After residing for several years in the Stew art district he came to Hyder and lived here continuously un- til his demise. So far as known he had no relatives in Amer ica. He is believed to have some surviving relations in Sweden but their whereabouts has not been ascertained. MT. Nelson was a fisherman by oc- cupation but also followed min- ing and prospecting. He was man of quiet ways and kind ly disposition and was highly regarded by those who knew him.
 Funeral services were held Friday morning in the old Sal mon River store building, with Rev. H. R. Cross officiating. The services were attended by a large number of friends of the deceased and handsome floral offerings evidenced the regard and sympathy of fel- low residents of the commun- ity.
 Following the services the re- mains were inferred in River view cemetery.
 The funeral was under the direction of E. E. Charlton.

New Bill Amends Alaska
 Bone Dry L a "

A bill amending the Alaska Bone Dry Act and lessening the penalties for prohibition law violations has been introduced in the House by Alaska dele gate James Wickersham.
 The new measure aims to amend the Alaska law in such manner as to provide the same penalties as are imposed by the national prohibition law.
 In introducing the bill Judge Wickersham called attention to the fact that the Bone Dry law was enacted before the national prohibition law and said that the penalties imposed by the Territorial law are too severe.
 The measure is probably in- tended to meet objections to the legislative proposal to re- peal the Alaska Bone Dry law raised by Bishop James Can non, Jr. and other prohibition leaders.

SILVER RESTORATION
 ACTION EXPECTED

Present expectations in Wash ington are that some measure restoring to silver its functions as money will be adopted at the present session of Cong ress and approved by the ad- ministration, according to ob- servers who are closely watch ing the trend of opinion on the silver issue.
 It is expected that the meas ure will come out of the "symp- athletic" inquiry into silver "as it affects commodity price lev els and exchange with silver using countries" which is now being conducted by the House committee on coinage, weights and measures; which, it will be recalled by Herald readers, in stituted the inquiry on it's own initiative and without waiting for introductory legislation, as is usually done.
 What is said to be one of the most hopeful signs of definite results is that intelligent inter- est is being displayed in both houses of Congress and justi- fies a strong hope that some constructive measures aimed at rehabilitation of silver for use as money will come out of the present session.
 This House committee is reported to be m k n g an intelligent, searching and sympathetic inquiry into the silver question as it affects commodity price levels and ex- change with the silver using countries. It is further report ed that those best informed in the Senate are of the opinion that concurrence of that body and approval by the admins tration will follow passage of the House committee report, provided that such report just flies present expectations.
 In it's efforts to ascertain the facts relative to silver, the coin- age committee. of which Rep resentative Andrew L. Somers, of New York, is chairman, has heard numerous witnesses rep resenting all of the important industrial and productive inter ests of the nation, in addition to wide array of financial and economic experts. Chair man Somers has also sent let. ters to government officials and prominent financiers ir eight countries asking their at. titude on an international con. ference for restoration of silver prices. Among those requested to give their views on the sub iect were Sir Robert Horne member of the British parlia ment; Montague Norman, gov ernor of the Bank of England and Sir Charles Addis, Bank O. England; Clement Moret, gov ernor of the Banque of France Emile Morau, governor of thu Bank of Paris; Joseph Calli aux, Chamber of Deputies France; Sir Herbert Holt, pres ident of the Royal Bank of Can ada; Augustin Legoretta, gen eral manager of the Banc' Nacinol de Mexico, and Alber to J. Pani, Mexican minister o Finance; Hans Luther, presi dent of the Reichsbank, of Ger many; Sir Osborne Smith, gov ernor of the Imperial Bank o India; Tsuyi Pei, manager o the Bank of China; Professo Gustav Cassel. of Sweden. an
