FAIRBANKS, Oct. 10.—At a meet
ing of the democratic divisional com
mittee, held here yesterday, at which
were a number of the leading demo
crats of the Fourth division, the fol
lowing resolutions were adopted:
“Whereas, John H. Cobb, presenl
attorney-general of Alaska, holding
office under an appointment of Gov
ernor Strong, whose name was placec
before the regular democratic con
vention for nomination for attorney
general, and who was defeated foi
said nomination, is now running as
an independent candidate for the of
fice of attorney-general as againsl
the nominee of the regular democrat
ic convention; and,
“Whereas, we deem it unfair and
unjust to the local party men whc
are spending their time and money ir
an effort to elect the party ticket anc
to build up a party organization tc
permit the said John H. Cobb to hold
the office of attorney general; and,
“Whereas, the said John H. Cobt
has been absent from his office in Ju
neau and has been making a tour ol
parts of Alaska in the endeavor tc
influence the voters of Alaska to eleci
him to the office of attorney-general
as against the regular nominee of the
democratic party; now, therefore, be
it
“Resolved, that the actions of the
said John H. Cobb are hereby con
demned ,and we do hereby request
Governor Strong immediately to re
quest the said John H. Cobb to hand
in his resignation as attorney general
and in the event of his declining to re
sign that he be peremptorily removed
from said office; and be it further
“Resolved that a copy of this reso
lution be sent to Governor Strong and
one to T. J. Donohoe, democratic na
tional committeeman, and that the
fact that this resolution has been pas
sed be wired to the governor immedi
ately.”

NICKEL CLAIM ON
SPIRIT MOUNTAIN
(Valdez Miner)
Among the arrivals on the Maripo
sa from Cordova was Chris Tjosevig,
who has spent the summer at his cop
per properties in the inter.ior. Mr.
Tjosevig brings the report of the
opening up of an enormous ledge in
the Spirit mountain district which
may mean the development of a new
mining industry in Alaska.
The property is owned by Andrew
Halvorson, Charles Young and B. O.
Peterson, and consists of a group of i
claims covering a wide vein carrying §
copper and nickel, the nickel predom- jj
inating. The ore is reported to carry g
about 10 per cent of the latter metal |
and the owners believe they have one §
of the most valuable properties in the
territory. At the present time the |
metal is in great demand in the man- u
ufacture of war munitions and com- §
mands a high price owing to the lim- a
ited output. The principal source of |
the metal on the American continent |
is the mines at Sudbury, Ontario, com
paratively little being produced in the |
United States. |
The owners of these claims have |
corresponded with the International jj
Nickel company regarding the prop- a
erty, and have received a request from 3
that concern for samples of the ore, g
which, it is hoped, will lead to the |
company interesting itself in the new 5
discovery. jj
Messrs. Halverson, Young and Pe- .
terson intend to carry on develop- |
ment work on their claims during the
winter and expect to make a show
ing that will bring the property into
prominence. They have stripped the
lead for 12 claim lengths and will
now commence driving a tunnel in
on the ore.
