'CRUSHING FORTY
Superintendent J. L. McAllen, ol
; the Willow Creek Mining company
' who have a leaBe on the Gold Bul
lion quartz property in the Willow
| creek district, arrived, in Anchorage
[ yesterday with the bullion from the
| last clean-up.
Mr. McAllen reports everything
progressing favorably at the mine
and mill and from present conditions
expects a very successful season.
The mills are crushing 40 tons ol
quartz a day and they have plenty
of ore in sight and blocked out for
the season’s run of about 150 days.
He says they have been very fortun
ate in getting hold of extra good
miners this season and that the boys
are well satisfied with the grub and
. accommodations and so far have on
ly lost three men from dissatisfac
tion of existing conditions and this
was on account of the doctor’s fee,
j which is customary in this country.
Dr. E M. Spaulding, who has the
\ men from the Bullion, Independence
I and Alaska and Free Gold mine un
j der his medical supervision, has
i moved to Mile 32 and established
| headquarters, with his wife in
charge of the hospital. This move is
of great advantage to the miners in
; the Willow creek district and will
1 no doubt do away with any existing
.1 dissatisfaction.
The roads to the mines this spring
w-ere in very bad condition and the
| operators had considerable trouble
1 in getting in provisions but Mr. Mc
i Allen says that they now have a
season’s supply on hand with plen
| ty of beef and that he has arranged
for fresh vegetables from the ranch
; ers in the vicinity of Knik.
He says that they are working 75
I men at the Bullion at the present
and that he is after ten additional
miners on this trip and that before
the season is over they will have 100
| men in their employ, with comfort
able accommodations for the entire
force.
Mr. McAllen is stopping at the
Hotel Parsons and will leave this
evening on the launch Swan for
Knik and the Willow creek district.

National Military Train- |
ing Our Only Solu
tion of Preparedness
I By Lieutenant General S. B. M.
? YO'JNC. U. S. A- Retired
EVERY secretary of war, from
General Knox to and includ
ing Garrison, after carefully
considering the problem, reached
the conclusion that the only solu
tion is EQUAL OR NATIONAL
MILITARY TRAINING. THIS
SAME VIEW WAS HELD BY
WASHINGTON, JEFFERSON
AND PRACTICALLY ALL THE
FOUNDERS OF OUR GOVERN
MENT.
Every member of congress who
has given serious thought to the
problem will admit in private con
versation that we cannot secure a
sufficient force of trained citizen
soldiers under our present so called
volunteer military system. The
United States is the only country
that now clings to this undemocrat
ic, dangerous and vicious military
system by which a few patriotic citi
zens and professional soldiers are
depended upon for its defense.
ENGLAND HAS JUST BEEN
FORCED TO RESORT FIRST TO
CONSCRIPTION AND FINALLY TO'
ADOPT COMPULSORY 8ERVICE,
EXACTLY A8 THIS COUNTRY DID
IN THE CIVIL WAR.
ADOPT NEW BOXING RULE.
Australians Will Not Permit Second*
to Stop Fights.
They’ve Inaugurated a new boxing !
rule In Australia, which says that the
tossing In of a towel or sponge to save
a man Is not to be recognised. The
Australians deemed the move neces
sary. since It prevents seconds from
throwing In the sign of defeat when a
man la really able to go on.
It was charged that a man who re
cently fought there was sold out by
one of his seconds. It was this action
that caused a change In the rules. Now
they are talking of eliminating the
rule which causes a contestant to be
disqualified if a second jbmps Into the
i ring.
