A very significant development
has taken place in the copper min
ing industry of Alaska. Nearly all
the work has been preliminary in
character, for it takes a long time
to open up a big copper mine.
Development work has been going
steadily forward, however, in at
least two localities. The ore ship
lad from the territory to smelters
in the United- Slates is merely in
cidental to-this development work.
In the first seven months of tiiis
fiscal-year the value of copper ore
received from Alaska was $211,ID),
as against $08,588 in the same
months of the fiscal year 1904, and
the January receipts were $10.8150;
as against $3,095 in the first month
of last year.
