 In Copper Ores
Oliver Millett Tells of Vast Deposits as Yet Un-
 worked

While Cordova and the rest of Alaska wonders what will be the outcome of Kennecott's cooper ores H petering out, Oliver Millett, vet |. eran Iliamna prospector, is trying to interest big money in what is perhaps the largest copper area in Alaska, in the Iliamna country.
 Millett, in Juneau on his way south to spend the winter in con- nection with two copper lodes and a gold placer, told briefly of a wonderful mineral country
 There are three large copper deposits in the Lake Clark country, that are patented" Millett said. "Kennecott engineers and other en- gineers have seen them and found the ore all that could be asked for, but about 100 miles of railroad would have to be built to develop 1 them.
 That would cost about four mil- lion dollars" Mnlett said one en- gmeer told him, adding, But that's about all it cost to build couple of the Kennecott's Copper River and Northwestern bridges"
 Good Ore
 The ore which Millett described has copper contents varying from three percent to 10 percent-good ore to most mining men-and m addition, Millett said, carries gold and silver values.
 "There's about $50 to $2.00 ton in gold in my ores that l have pat ented on Lake Clark" Millett said, but some of the other properties, for instance the one on Lake Kon- trashibuna, carry more gold than that, and all of the properties assay about five ounces of silver to the tOn.'
 Millett also recently staked body of copper glance on tidewater in the Iliamna section that is about 65 percent pure, he said, but has not yet been developed to an extent where it's size can be determined.
 On Bonanza Creek, tributary of the Big Mulchatna, Millett has staked what he believes is big dredge proposition for gold placer. He says drilling shows good values for dredge work of around 45 cents yard to depths as great as 60 feet.
 Just Remote Country
 Whats wrong with the country?' MiIlett asked Nothing It's lit- tie remote, but if we had a road in there, or something big enough to force the building of road, that country would see a lot of develop ment It's easy to prospect and there is lot of fish and game
 Before the war we had a lot of good men in there, but since that time there haven't been any pros- pectors in there to speak of.
 Coming back? Sure I am be back in April"

 'eThere is no better prevention from encroach- ment on the constitutional rights of the people than bicamera legislature when there is tendency for legislators to over-leap the com mon functions of legislation from passion, from ambition, from inadvertance, from the prevail ence of factions, or from the strong influence of private interests It is well to have barrier that will balance these various interests against each other. s
 Distances in Alaska very often prevent proper information bills to reach the people before they have passed one house. With a second house they have better opportunity to register their objections or suggest amendments before the bill becomes law
 Governor Cochrane of Nebraska said it would take several terms to find out whether unicameral was benefit a handicap after the first uni cameral session, making it appear that there is no unnecessary haste in Alaska while we have testing laboratory in Nebraska which score of other states are watching before acting. It might be we'll to observe at this point that at recent session of Nebraska's newly inaugurated unicameral legislature, the ratification of the Child Labor Amendment of the United States defeated. While attention should not be centered entirely on the mistakes made by Ne braska's new institution, it is felt that this major one and worthy of comment. .2eg
 From point of economy, the unicameral idea does not justify the possible savings, in view of the dangers inherent in it's adoption.
 'To say that bcameraism allows passing the buck from one house to the other is merely red herring, aimed to deceive the people and state ment not borne out by facts.
 "Conceding there may be some merits to unicameral legislature, the passage of the refer endum endorsing it in way tells the voters what kind of form the bill will take when it emerges from Congress.

Further, if the voters of Alaska approve the referendum, will give every assistance possible to it's nasty adoption"
