Already he has surrounded himself
with new staff Of assistants and new

has insisted.
Second, Courtney has plunged into
the task of fulfilling his campaign
pledges. They are-break any con-
spiracy to defeat taxes, stop tax-fxing,
drive out racketeerS and hoodlums and
destroy any politico- criminal alliances
existing
He has created several new bureaus
to facilitate entrapment and prosecu-
ton of criminals, including the Anti
Tax Strikers Bureau and the "hoodlum
squad" of police, which during the last
week has invaded alleged gangster
"hangouts" and made wholesale arrests.
Courtney started as page in the
Chicago City Council became clerk, and
finally sergeant at arms. In 1926 he
was elected State Senator, and again
in 1881. He has been militant pro-

 Delegate Wickersham has received a wire from the Alaska Territorial Chamber of Commerce stating that a referendum submitted to the Chamber members by wire had received the strong approval of Ketchikan, Nome, Fairbanks, Petersburg, Anchorage, Juneau, Sitka Wrangell, Skagway and Seward chambers This referen- dunn is designated as No. 4 and peti- tions President Hoover, Congressional heads and Cabinet officers, through Delegate Wickersham, "to adopt as a national policy, that since Alaska is a vast territory mostly owned by the Federal Government and has great undeveloped resources, altho sparsely settled and without authority or means for raising additional funds for development as in the past, must be continued; that proposed policy of retrenchment of federal activities will result in retarding development to the lasting detriment of Alaska and na- tional interests; referendum protests present railroad rates, selling cable system, cutting road appropriations and proposed elimination of appropri- ation for agricultural experiment sta tions. The unemployment situation demands the same federal considera- tion it is getting in the States, where activities have been increased" The message further says that "Alaskans are much alarmed over the reported curtailment of various Territorial ap- propriations. This Chamber and member organizations urge you to press before the President and De- partments the sentiments herein ex- pressed"
 In answer, the Delegate replied that he was greatly pleased to re- ceive the expressed sentiment of so many of the Alaska chambers, which would be properly presented to the interested departments as well as Congressional committees, in the ef- fort to secure consideration and fav- orable action for Alaska
 The value of the copper produced from Alaska in 1881 is estimated to have been $1,712,OOO. This marks decrease in value of more than S2, 5OO,OOO from the corresponding value in 1880. Nearly $1,000, ,000 of this de- crease in value may be attributed di- rectly to the lower average price of copper in 1881 than in 1880. The low price not only had it's direct effect in the value of the output, but it also acted to restrict operations. SO that the quantity produced fell off by an amount estimated as in excess of l2,- 100000 pounds. The average selling price of copper during the year, as compared by the Bureau of Mines, was 8.2 cents, against 13 cents in 1880. In 1881, as in former years. practically all the copper came from two mines near Kennecott, in the Cop per River region. The mine on La- touche island, which had long been one of the large producers of copper but which was closed down in Novem- Der, 1880, remained idle throughout 1881, and the work of sdismantling the surface plant was insnrugress.
 The value of the silver .production in 1881 was only $99, ,0OO, ass against

thirds of the silver came from the copper ore, and with the reduction of that output and silver averaging but 29 cents an ounce, the decline of the t> ta. value can be understood. Sil-- ,el caring lead ores are but little worked, because of their low value, Other minerals, like lead, tin, plati mum, petroleum, etc., amounted in .alue to S290,000.
 The 108,00O tons of coal produced m 1881 amounted in value to S567 ,000, As usual, practically all of the output came from the Matanuska and Healy River fields. The principal producing mines were those of the Evan Jones Coal Company and the Alaska Mata- nuska Coal Company, in the Mata- nuska field, and the Suntrana mine of the Healy River Coal Corporation, in the Healy River field. No notable new developments were reported to have been made at the Suntrana mine and its output was considerably more than the total from all the other coal mines in the Territory. Although no coal mining work was in progress during the year in the Boring River field, east of Cordova, a prospecting permit was issued, and plans are said to be under way with the object of reviving search for deposits suscepti- ble of profitable development.

Over 10000 bills have been intro duced in the new Congress, of which number Delegate Wickersham pre- scented 28, with a few more to come. It can well be understood that consid- erable time must elapse before many of these bills can be given hearing before the various committees to which they may have been referred, and of course the bills referring to Alaska must take their natural cousse before final action can be taken.
