capaciation. He also advocate'! i law
providing insurance against suffering
in old age, including the lowering oi
the present 6a year age limit for Terr
itorial pensioners and also the exten
sion to Alaska of federal insurance
aid.
Mr. Green declared the conviction
that the people of the Territory
should have the right to instruct their
legislators and to have control of all
Alaska resources. He is particularly
desirous of securing an amendment to
the Alaska Oiganic Act providing for
the right of initiative and referendum.
Mr. Green tendered his thanks to
the community for the support given
him by the voters in the primary and
said that in the event of his election
he will do everything in his power to
(t-cnre local flood protection and
other legislative requirements.
! John Hovland, president of ITuicorn
I Mines and one of the district’s earli
est settlers, in an address that was
brimful of optimism regarding the
camp’s future, declared he could see
no dark clouds ahead of us and deliv
ered an impressive warning against,
permitting the present depressed con
ditions to overcome faith in the dist
| riet’s future.
Recalling the past history of the
district, Mr. Hovland said when he
came to Hyder there was only a
handful of people. Later mineral dis
coveries increased this meager popu
lation to more than a thousand. Still .
later he saw the population dwindle j
as a result of inhibitive conditions j
and lack of confidence until there j
were only four people left in Hyder.
It was believed by many that there
was nothing here to stay for. But the
camp came back, he said, with the de
velopment oi the great Premier mine,
which at no time displayed surface
possibilities equal to those of the Big
Missouri and other properties.
Mr. Hovland declared the conviction
that the camp has not really got start
ed as yet. and voiced the opinion that
Premier hill will be the scene of act
ive mining for many years to .come.
The Premier might play out, he said,
but there is estimated to be $10,000,000
worth of ore on the adjoining B. C.
Silver, which will eventually be
worked, and there are large known
ore resources in other properties.
Referring to recent pessimistic re
ports regarding the Big Missouri, Mr.
Hovland urged his hearers not to per
mit themselves to be discouraged by
rumors and declared his belief that
i he property possesses immense po
tentialities and will ultimately become
a big mine.
Mr. Hovland’s declarations of con
fidence created a deep impression
that found reflection in the remarks
of later speakers; one of whom said
his views of the district’s future had
been greatly altered-by Mr. norland’.*
impressive statements. As a result,
he intended to stay with the camp, in
stead of seeking opportunities else
where.
Others addressing the meeting on
various topics were W. I). Smith, pow
er company manager, who devoted
his remarks principally to the splen
did repast served by the ladies of the
Friendship Club; Don. Esselmont, rep
resentative of tlie Crawford Transfer
of Stewart, who voiced appreciation
of Mr. Hovland's optimism, and Ben
Oien, who displayed in his brief re
marks an excellent subtility of wit
and keeness at reparfoe.
