SEW Mil*. Ai VSh SATl UDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1915.
To anyone who knows anything about British polities it is evident that
the dilTere :ecs in the B itish cabinet at present are due less to dis-satisfac
tion with the pivg res> '*1 the war than to bitter paity tecling. t arson
certainly resigned from the cabinet because he hated Asquith, Lloyd George
atul the other Lineals, and he and his kind are now dubbed “wreckers” right
in the British hou.-c of commons itself. Carson would rather see the British
defeated than to see a I n* a! government in power. The statement of
Bonur Law. cabled yesterday, was probably part of the scheme to create a
fo ling of pessimism so that Asquith might lose the confidence of the people,
in choosing a war cabinet Crime Minister Asquith picked out Arthur Balfour
Const ratives ami was prime minister
in a Consc rv at ve government, but Balt our is a statesman and not a politi
cian of the C u 'On class. He w ill think of country first ami of party last.
The Liberal .overnment i> c« m|H»sed in greater part of the democratic por
tion of the population ; m we hiight expect from now on. when the war is not
going at all too favorably foi the Allies, to hear all sorts of criticisms of the
prime minister and Lloyd Geo'ge, and especially wid this criticism come tiom
the house of u-rds, for it him been the way of lords since the beginning of
time that they would rathoi maintain aristocracy than their country s tiee
dom or prosperity. Winston Churchill was probably compelled to quit his
place at the head of the admiralty because he dared to be a Liberal and to
forget in his desire to do what was right that a lord had been his father.
Asquith, Lloyd George and Arthur J. Balfour are probably the three
finest types of Britishers. If John Morley, who resigned as a protest against
the war, be oxiepted thev is not one of the three mentioned who could be
excelled in any of the qualities necessary for their high office. Asquith and
George have gamed t r overwhelming support of the democracy of the four
separate nati nudities in the British Island* and this, of course, means, as
they are Liberals, that the lords have seen the writing on the wall, but they
will tight on as the blind aristocracy of France fought on until the Revolu
tion swept over them.

The time to be measured is now and the place is:
(faction will be u quarter of a million
larger, according to the Ruby Record
Citizen; while Circle’s output is more
than a hundred thousand more than
in 1014. Just how the Koyukuk pro
duction will compare with last year
is not known, but letters from there
during the last month, indicate that
the camp would hold its own and pos- !
sibly show up a little better than*last
season. With the big Manley plant
doing well at Iditarod, and the
dredges running along smoothly, the
output there is slightly in excess of
1014.
Recent arrivals from the Circle
country say that the Berry dredge
paid for itself during the first few ;
mouths of operation, and the outfit
is expected to clear up fully a hun- j
dred thousand dollars to the good.
No one knows just what the dredge j
did, as the management kept as a
secret the exact amount of the out
put.
The output of the Hot Springs
country is not known yet, but A.
Rock, the owner of much ground in
the camp, stated when in Fairbanks
that he was satisfied that the pro
duction would be fully as large as in
1014.
With all these encouraging reports,
the business people and residents of ^
the Interior are resting easier than
they have for several yars.—Fair- j

NATIVES ASKING FOU
LAND ALLOTMENTS
Under the revised regulations re
garding land allotments to native
Indians or Eskimo of full or mixed
blood residing in Alaska, 78 applica
tions have been filed in the local land
office at Juneau, asking for tracts of
land. The majority of these applica
tions have been made for tracts of 160
acres, although a few have been filed
for very small areas. ,
Passed May 17, 1908, the act pro
vides that the secretary of the in
terior may allot not to exceed 160
acres of non-mineral land in the Dis
trict of Alaska to an Indian or Eski
mo of full or mixed blood who resides
in and is a native of said district,
and who is the head of a family or is
21 years of age; and the land so al
lotted shall be deemed the homestead
of the allottee and his heirs in per
petuity and shall be inalienable and
non-taxable until otherwise provided
by congress. Any person qualified
for an allotment as aforesaid shall
have the preference right to secure
by allotment the non-mineral land oc
cupied by him, not ^exceeding 160
acres.

RUBY, Oct. 15.—The local mining
season closed on the first of the week.
The season has been a good one in
this district, and the output will be a
quarter of a million dollars greater
than last year’s. The prospects for
a busy winter are also good. The
trail will be in shape for winter
travel in a very few days, and the
tonnage furnished by the freighting
of the dredge and supplies for the
Yukon Gold company will keep the
freighters in this locality busy. The
contract let by the Yukon Gold com
pany calls for the freighting of five
hundred tons of goods from Ruby to
Greenstone creek.—News- Miner.
