GOLD PRODUCTION GROWS
The report oI Alaskan exports to the United States
for October gold production climbed up toward the $2,
'000,000 mark, falling approximately a quarter of a mil
lion below that point with a total production of $1,742,630.
According to U S. Geological Survey statistics geld
production in Alaska is divided almost equally between
placers and lodes. Of these latter the Alaska Juneau with
its average of around $300,000 per month, heads the list,
and this from ore or gangue matter averaging around $1
per ton gross and a recovery of from 58 to 60c per ton net.
It is no stretch of the imagination to picture Alaska
passing the $2,000,000 pei* month mark during the next
mining year. With large-scale operations planned for
Willow creek and Nuka bay, the Railroad zone bids fair
to receive the benefit of this increased production not
only in returns for the operators but in wage disburse
ments and the sale of goods.
Thus instead cf viewing world matters thru blue
lenses, those of Alaska are more roseate than before in
its history, discounting such entei prises as the railroad.
There is no excuse for pessimism or misgivings. The
greatest bank in the world—Alaska’s gold deposits—in
stead of being shaken, grows stronger as the days go by,
and instead of fearing a run on this bank it would wel
come one. This should be led with pick and shovels, pow
der and steel.

It is just like the piker betters to charge that former
jockey Vice-president Curtis pulled the race.

There’s no denying the prediction of the Repub
licans that unemployment would increase if the Demo
crats were victorious. Look at the dry agents who are be

It is a propituous moment for Tin Pan Alley to turn
out a new “Stein Song.”

Who says the oldtimers would never see a return to
the “good ol ddays.” Think of rushing the can and munch

Utterances of famous women: Mrs. Roosevelt—“No,
Franklin, don’t hang that picture there. Put it on the
other side.”
Mrs. Hoover—“Herbie, dear, did you bring the cat?”

Now we wiD. have a chance to learn thru Mrs. Roose
velt what sort of a Housekeeper Mrs. Hoover was.

There could be worse disasters than losing the presi

The departure of Ogden Mills from the Cabinet indi

If there is no other job open for Mr. Hoover he might

Mr. Hoover said.: “We know how to deal with mobs.”
Evidently mobs know how to deal with Mr. Hoover.

Now that the election is over the gunmen and their

It remains to be seen if the country will go to hell or!

Down in Kentucky when it was discovered the Re

have a majority.
It has come to tight that the $2,500 voted the Gover

palms was the white satin casket i

whence there is no returning. Glen
looked as natural as in life, and as
the attendance passed his bier in
: farewell, tears flowed. The an

Following the I. O. O. F. ritual,
Mrs. Ryan and Mrs. Reisner sang
the appropriate song “Safe in the
Arms of Jesus,” assisted by Miss
Ruth Reisner at the piano. Rev.
E. E. Reisner chose “Home” as the
theme for his services, which was
followed by prayer. Then the ten
der solo. “Face to Face,” by Mrs.
Rich.
Twelve automobiles followed the
hearse to the I. O. O. F. cemetery
where grave services were read over
Glen’s final resting place.
The parents and son Edwin, bore
up as bravely as possible in face of
their bereavement.
Pall-oearers were playmates and
comrades of Glen: Edwin Larson,
Burdette Blue, Clarence Larson and
Russell Johnston.
The varied beautiful wreaths,
hearts, harps and sprays, all em
blematic of love for the departed
lad, were from: Mr. and Mrs. Geo.
James, Mr. and Mrs. Sol Urie and
family, Benny Crawford, Mr. and j
Mrs- Chas. Leckner and family, Mr.
