Boost Mcintosh For Marshal? !?

Senator Norman R. Walker and Attorney A. H. Zeigler, leading Democrats of Ketchi- kan, are reported by the Cor dova Times as making an act i've fight to secure the appoint ment of Lonnie Mcintosh as successor of United States Ma-- shal Albert White of the First Judicial Division.
 The report, if true, discloses a decided lack of unanimity on the part of Democratic leaders over the endorsement of Will jam Mahoney, of Ketchikan, by the Democratic divisional con- mittee. Also, if true, it may provide a hint as to why the present Republican incumbent has been permitted to hold the office so long while deserving Democratic candidates sigh for a seat at the federal pie count CT. Anyway it's an old Alas kan custom, whether the re- port is true or not.

ALASKA TO RECEIVE
 SHARE CWA. FUNDS

Alaska will receive its pro- portionate share of the funds to be released by the Civil Works Administration to de- crease unemployment, it was announced recently following a conference held in Washington by Delegate Dimond and Gov ernor Troy with Harry L. Hop kins, head of the Civil Works Administration.
 The amount to be made avail able to the Territory will prob- ably be between $150,00C and S200,000. This sum is expect ed to provide around 1,5O0 jobs.
 As it is requisite that the money be spent between De- cember l and February IS, Fly der and interior Alaska will probably derive no benefit therefrom, as the official dict um is that most of the work will be done in the coastal sect ions "where climatic condit- ions permit of the carrying out of constructive projects"

Snipe Season Ends 18th

The annual open season for taking jack-snipe and Wilson snipe, commencing September 1, will close next Friday, Dec. 18th, at midnight; after which time it will be unlawful to take the birds, in any manner, un- less imperatively necessary to sustain life.
 The recently authorized spec ial open season for taking bea- yer in the First Division will commence tomorrow, Decem- Der 10th, and will continue un- til January 20. Ten beaver may be taken during the open season. So far as can be ascer- tained, the beaver colony on the A. J. Mayer ranch on Texas Creek is the only one in the vi- cinity of Hyder likely to yield belts under the new ruling, al- though there are probably oth- CTS farther down the canal.

New Mind Alcove Books

Seven splendid new volun es for the International Mind AL cove section have been received by the Hyder Public Library from the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.
 The list of books includes the following titles: Soviet Scene, by Frederick Griffin, a Canad- ian writer, who discusses con- ditions and affairs in Russia from a somewhat sympathetic viewpoint and provides a great deal of interesting information.
 The Tragedy of Russia, by Will Durant, presents the Rus sian picture from an opposite viewpoint, for this writer is in- clined to point out the bad feat ures of the Russian situation. although he recognizes the ot':- CT side as well. These two read together should give a fairly we'll balanced picture.
 An Indiscreet Itinerary, by H. w. van Loon, is a casual lit tie book full of original and de- lightful comments upon the Dutch and should be popular with those who enjoy subtitle witticisms.
 The Spirit of France, by Pau! Cohen-Portheim, author of Tie Spirit of England, provides a fine foundation upon which to base our thinking with regard to France and the French peo- pie and is extremely interest ing. Will they pay?, by Dorsey Richardson, is fine discussion of the war debts question and presents the complicated sub- ject in entertaining manner. Dollars and Sense, by Irvi ,c Brant is an excellent present. ation of the complicated quest ions of finance and is easy to understand. Our corner store economists and finance sharks will find it very interesting and enlightening.
 Tschieffely's Ride, by A. F. Tschieffely, details the auth OTIS experiences during ten thousand mile horseback ride from Buenos Aires to New York. Gives pleasing glimpses of out-of-the-way places in South America.

SAYS PREMIER LOOKING
 F O R HANDOUTS"

Commenting on the recent withdrawal of the Premier Gold Mining Company from the Cariboo District, after a brief period of exploring a property, Western Canada Mining News says:
 "In one way it is not sur prising that Premier is leaving Cariboo District. During the last five years either the Pre- mier or the Federal Mining Company, of Idaho, both Guggenheim organizations, have gone into various districts in British Columbia, worked a while on mine prospects and then withdrew. For seven years it has had an awful time, according to it's own story, of retaining it's hold on its mine in Portland Canal district. Every year the annual report contains the weeping declara- ton that the mine has been bottomed, yet it keeps wor- rying on, paying dividends in proportion to metal prices and always finding more ore. It has done very we'll in re- gard to ore in the past year and recent diamond drilling from the sixth level disclosed high grade 200 feet below.
 "A couple of years ago when it made the regular announce men't that the mine was about through after paying $16,000- 900 dividends, the company renewed it's aerial tram, which took about 21 miles of steel cable. Premier went into Cariboo about the last of all the big companies and thinks it got ground without much mineral. Premier had it's pres ent mine served to it on a sill yer platter, and has been looking for the same handout since. It refused to pay $40 900 for the mine now held by B. c. Silver, because the values on the surface were low, a mine that has developed a very large amount of ore. The Federal took over the Sally silver mine at Beaverdell a few years ago, paid $10,O00 down, and did mighty we'll with what silver was in sight before rehnquishing the prop erty when another payment be- came due.
 Although the Premier and the Federal have tried out properties in different parts of the province, they will have great difficulty in locating a mine in a few minutes that will pay million a year from the start"

BORAH BATTLING
 FOR SILVER USE

Declaring that mo sound and efficient monetary system should leave silver out of the picture" Senator William E. Borah, whose earlier attitude on the silver question was more academic than active, is now backing silver remoneti- zation with the full weight of his vigorous and forceful per sonality.
 Borah's declaration Mas made in reply ito a proposal by James P. Warburg, former economic adviser to the admin istration, to revaluate the U. s. dollar in terms of a modern ized gold standard. Warburg, who was at one time financial advisor to- the Bank of England resigned recently because of his cppcsi.ion to President Roosevelt's financial policy.
 Contending that Warburg's plan possessed many elements of uncertainty" in that it would have to be undertaken in conjunction with Great Brit ain and the entire sterling bloc" and could be made ef- fectual only after a long period of trial and error. Borah de- clared, mo monetary system can in the future be considered sound and efficient which does not restore to millions of people the money which they have used for 5000 years, which they desire to use and which they will use, if permitted to do So."
 Borah's vigorous stand fer recognition of cilver as a mon- ey medium will be hailed with rejoicing by silver opponents, as the silver cause could hardly have acquired a more weighty champion than the distinguish ed Idahoan, whose words and opinions on public questions probably command wider pub- lie interest and attention than do those of any other Ameri- can political figure aside from President Roosevelt.
 Another interesting develop ment bearing on the silver question appeared this week in reports from the Pan-American Conference of 21 North and South American nations, now in session in Montevideo, stat ing that the Mexican delega- ton hos offered a proposal for the establishment of a central banking system for United States, Central, and South America, and the setting up of a new Pan-American currency backed at least in part by sill yer. If adopted this would be a first step toward "internat- ional currency" or world
