ever, with an advance in the price of copper, the mines near Kennecott ill the Copper River region, resumed operations and during this year cop per shipments from the Territory amounted to 23, ,987, 183 pounds. with a declared value of S2,376,7 ,738.
 Tin orc production came back into the picture again during the past year, after having been more or less dormant, with shipments ag- gregating l65.252 pounds, at a de- clared value of 1897. Platinum pro duction showed a nice advance dur ing 1885 with shipments amounting to 2,79l ounces valued at $50, ,773, as against l53 ounces valued at $4,341 in 1884. Shipments of limestone from Southeast Alaska were resumed during the year and 127,418 tons, valued at $70,998 were forwarded to the continental United States.
 Canned Salmon Declines
 Statistics on the shipments of canned salmon from Alaska during 1885 show marked decline from the past few years. This decline was due almost entirely to the tenn oorary limiting of the catch of sal mon in the Bristol Bay region by the Bureau of Fisheries as a con servative measure. Total shipments of canned mon for the year amounted to 41,542.8 .889 pounds at 8 declared value of $24,l55,394. or a decline of 116,l67094 pounds and SIP 654,830 in values.
 Shipments of fresh and frozen salmon to the United States and Canada showed nice increase dur ing the year, however, and totaled 9,243,66l pounds valued at S757233, or a gain of 1,883.224 pounds and $233,890 in values over 1884. Cured or preserved salmon also showed an increase in production during the year and shipments made aggregat- ed 6,424,4 ,440 pounds at a declared value of $1,199,861.
 This represents a gain of 2,110.790 pounds and $443,O65 in values. over 1884.
 Shipments of furs and fur skins, other than seal skins, made during the year amounted to S1,547. .832. This was decrease of $463, 853 from 1884 but is mostly accounted for by the closed season in some sections of Alaska on catch of beaver during 1885.
 Imports Increase
 An increase of nearly two million dollars in the value of merchandise shipped from the United States and Canada into Alaska during 1855 is another indication of the industrial growth of Alaska in the opinion of this office. Domestic shipments from the United States aggregated S32,- GOT 1856, while imports from foreign countries amounted to $254, 4,001, mak- ing grand total of 32,261, ,857, orran increase of S1,986,379 over 1884.
 Trade Balance Held
 'The total value of outbound com merce during 1885 amounted to S53, 289,511, or a decrease of $8,O27,- 858 from 1884. This loss in outbound commerce, as stated previously was primarily due to the limiting of the catch of salmon in Bristol Bay by the Federal government.
 Despite this loss in shipments of merchandise from Alaska, balance of trade in favor of the Territory of S21 ,027,654 was held.''

Brock, Minus Duck
Visits Friend Here

Heinie Brock, famous swimmer
and skater who, with Sonia Henje,
has appeared in ice carnivaIs
throughout the country this win
ter, spent Tuesday of last week
here with DIR. M. P. Feigal, an
old friend. DR.. FeigaPs son, Da-
vid, attends Brooks boys camp in
northern Minnesota during his
summer vacations.
Brock will be remembered as
the owner of a famous talking
duck which appeared with him in
his barrel jumping act at the Min
neapolis ice carnival last winter.
A versatile fowl, the duck could
answer Brooks questions, or re-
gister suspense by hiding his head
under his wing while his master
executed particularly dangerous
skating feat. The call of the wild,
however, claimed the bird who
broke up the act when he left the
northern camp for parts unknown
several months ago. Brock has
tried six ducks since, but is still
looking for a successor to the ORR
ginal.
To those who saw the motion
picture, wife Versus Secretary"
the skater will be recalled as the
one upon whom the fat lady fell
during the rink scene.

Occasion for this wide tribute to

In The Senior High
The Senior class met Monday
April 20, to decide on class mem.
orial. After a discussion of sew
eral different projects the class
decided that the most practical
memorial would be some new
equipment for the stage in the
Lincoln auditorium. This piece OF
equipment is known as "Cyclor-
anna" and can be adapted to any
type of program.
The cost of the Cyclorama made
it impossible for this years class
to completely pay for it, so it was
proposed to the Juniors that they
nnish the payments next year. AT
a meeting of the Juniors, the Sen
iors of 1887, this proposal was ac-
copied. The grade department
will also contribute.
One hundred and eight students
from the Redwood Falls public
schools, comprising the band, or

took part.

New Ulm Review
Workers On Strike

New Ulm-Several employees in
the mechanical department of the
New Ulm Review went on strike
early last week and as a result
the paper is being published with
the aid of new employees.
Inquiry by the management
brought the information that five
men and two women employed in
the plant had complaints against
their employers, who lease the
plant, and three of the strikers
wished to lease the plant and run
it themselves. The owners, Mr..
and Mrs. Albert Steinhauser, saw
no advantage in such a move and
refused the proposition.
When the former employees fail
ed to reach an agreement with the
proprietors, new men were con-
tacted and went to work imme-
diately. As q result of the change,
last weeks issue was published 3
day later than usual.
