Denied Saying
 Bases Soon Be
 Made in Alaska
(By The Associated Press)

KETCHIKAN, June 30, - Re- presentative Byron B. Harlan, democrat of Ohio, denied today saying an Alaska military base and more colonies in the Mata- nuska Valley would be establish ed by the federal government.
 He arrived here on the U. S. Bureau of Fisheries vessel Brant on an inspection trip for the De- partment of Commerce.
 Harlan said that published re- ports quoting him as saying that base would be located soon near Matanuska colony "were grossly exaggerated".
 His statement was: "It's been known for years that the War Department was considering a territorial naval base, but l lack authority to speak for the gov- ernment." t
 He said he believed there was little likelihood of any immed- fate action. The establishment of several colonies naturally would follow the location of the propos ed base, he stated.
 "The government is consider ing a second Matanuska near the present colony, but there is noth- ing definite yet. I am unable to remember the exact location with out referring to my notes,' liar Ian declared.

for delegate, whatever that u.s. only it seems that
these delegates get together and tell you later who
to vote for for president or something, and there
was man there and did not like him, and in
fact he was so rude to me that doubt if will
even vote at all, and if do, certainly will not
take my trade to him.
The way it was this, i. e., this man said to
me as follows:
"Are you Democrat or a Republican,"
And to this replied, What kind of Democrats
have you?" And he looked at me sort of funny,
or so it seemed to me- and said 81 mean there
seem to be many kinds, like Mr.. Roosevelt and
Mr.. Tamadge and Mr.. Smith and Mr.. Robinson,
and, for all know Mr.. JONES' too, and what
want to know is, which shall be, if any,"
And this man said, not very helpfully, 1--WE are
not allowed to advise
So said just sort of thinking out loud "Or
maybe should be Republican, only there are
lot of kinds of them too, so how can girl de-
cide?"
And at this the man remarked in kind of
strangled voice follows "Oh, hell, lady, are you
sure you can read and write"
So at that left.

Gratis and many Republicans, and right now these
do not seem to see eye to eye about each other.
You take this Mr. Roosevelt, for instance. He
saws he is a Democrat and for the people, but
there are many who deny this, including Mr.. Al
Smith, who when he was in the politics business
was Democrat himself, also for the people. Then,
just to mix up more, there is this Governor
Talmadge, and he is governor of Georgia, and this
Mr.. Tamadge is doing the best he can with what

of course Mr. Tamadge is for the people, too, only
the poorer they are the more he is for them and
as near as can tell, it is his idea to make every

Meanwhile, the Republicans are all milling
around about Mr.. I4andon, and he is governor of

and ETC., and the Supreme Court is for the farmer

Tugwell and plant anything he likes, and Mr..
Smith is for the poor people, and all farmers are

Mining is profitable busness-when you have
the ore and the proper equipment-but it takes
enormous amount of labor and materials to
open the average mine and keep it running
\ AIMING has changed, too since Jim Marshall
wi scooped that first flake of gold from Suffers
mill race. 1t is no longer small mans game. A
gold miner used to think he was getting some
where when he had 10-stamp mill, and 20 or 80
stamps were something to brag of. That meant
his plant had capacity of 30 to 80 tons day
(about three tons to the stamp, varying, of
course with the nature of the rock and other con-
ditions. Today 1OOO-ton mill creates little COM
ment because such mill is not unusual
Biggest of California gold mines today is the
famous Empire-North Star at Grass Valley mine
known around the world. The Empire has been in
continuous operation since 1850 and is credited
with an output of $90,000,000 (about $150,O0O,O0O

The Idaho-Maryland at Grass Valley; the Argo-

Carson Hill at Meones, and the Golden Queen at
Mojave are among others of today's big producers.

This big plant operates largely on 81 ore and has
capacity of 10000 tons day. What mill that
requires, and how it would have made the old
timers stare!

\ AINING-the search for gold and silver and
wi other precious metals-transformed the West
from a vague dimly known land to one of the
most highly modernized and mechanical regions
on the globe. The miner found it raw, virgin
land, populated by few Indian tribes and Spanish
settlers, and transformed it into new world. It
was the discovery of gold which made San Fran
CISCO instead of Portland, the terminus of the first
transcontinenta railroad, and the first metropolis
of 1000 miles of territory stretching from the old
Missouri River frontier to the Pacific Ocean

Alaska, down through British
Columbia, Washington, Idaho,
California, Nevada and Arizona
to the Mexican border, a thousand
mining ventures have been re-
opened and a thousand new ones
are getting under way.
All this means not only in

means that in all this territory

thousand and one things it requires to open mine
and keep it running. Transportation also feels the
stimulus of this activity because most mines
far removed from the big industrial centers, and
supplies have to be transported long distances.

rolls in five Western states as against less than
half that number three years ago. Another, the

Nelson, white man, and the Os-

gotten into an argument relative
to the strike. According to Mrs. Os-
bornes statement to officers, one
word led to another until, she al
leges, Nelson called her reputedly
vile names. She then drew out a
.25 caliber automatic pistol and shot
him, she told the officers.
Nelson was treated at the Clinic

He was shot twice in the shoul-
