Editor.
That Alaska is always a point
of interest to many people, in
the States is evidenced by the
publicity given by “outside” big
newspapers to any new discover
ies in the Alaska mining field.
Under dale ef January 1st, 'n
the San Francisco Examiner.the
financial editor,Mr. Denis Dono
hue, has an article on the miner
al production in Alaska during
l‘J21 with Dr. Alfred Brooks, an
nual report as his groundwork.
He goes on further to mention
the strike which was made at
the Green Group last season.
As Mr Donohoe spent many
years in this section and still has
many friends here, we quote
his remarks verbatim.
