COURSES ADDED
BY NEW LAW
Copies have been received of an act
passed by the last legislature which
authorizes the establishment of a nor
mal school, or teachers’ training
course in connection with schools in
the territory which are already main
taining a four-year accredited high
school course. Schools desiring to put
in such a course should make appli
cation to the territorial board of edu
cation, and if it is approved by the
commissioner of education, territorial
funds will be made available for such
establishment.
The act follows in full:
Ee it enacted by the legislature of
the Territory of Alaska:
Section 1. That school boards in
^ incorporated towns, cities or districts
^ , maintaining a four-year accredited
high school are hereby authorized to
establish and maintain a normal
school or teacher’s training course in.
connection therewith under conditions
as outlined in this act. Such teacher’s
training course shall be two years in
length and shall begin with the
twelfth grade or fourth year of the
high school and shall continue
through the same and through a fifth j
or additional year of high school
work. High schools in which such
teacher’s training courses are main
tained shall be known as “normal
high schools."
Sec. 2. It shall be the duty of the
commissioner of education to outline
the minimum course of study for each
of the two years of the teacher’s train
ing course in “normal high schools,”
’ to choose the textbooks which shall be
used in the same, to specify the mini
mum qualifications of instructors, to

ANOTHER GOLD STRIKE
REPORTED IN KOYUKUK
Kc>ukuk again registers with an
other gold find, but the report is un
confirmed.
Annually someotte uncovers a big
body of rich dirt in that district but
up to date there has never been any
thing like a general discovery made,
although some rich spots have been
discovered and worked to advantage.
The one reported may be the genuine
article or it may be another "boomer”
and it would probably be the part of
wisdom to await definite information
before starting on a stampede.
The reports received says that the
strike was made on April 26 on the
Betties river some distance above
Wiseman. The discoverers are said to
be James Kelly, Frank Howard and
J. Holzer. Three holes were put down
to bedrock, none of them being more
than 20 feet deep, each hole averaging
fifteen cents to the pan and four and
one-half feet of pay dirt.
A large copper nugget was found
by the discoverers in the gravel. The
men are said to be working on a 6 be
low and 8 and 10 above, but had not
reached bedrock and it is unknown
cvheth^r or no tthey found any gold.
• /fa at Tanana on the last boat
from'the Koyukuk region brought the
report. It will be sometime before
another large boat arives at Tanana
from the lower river, but definite in
formation is expected in a short time.
AMERICAN COMPANIES I
TO CONTROL SILVER PRICE
WASHINGTON, July 3.—Up to this
time a few London brokers have con
trolled the world's silver price. Ray
Baker, director of the United States
mint, backed by the Pittman dollar
silver bill knocked the London plan
to bits by a clever official control of
the silver minimum. Now comes the
announcement that a great triumvir
ate composed of the Anaconda Com
pany, the American and the United
States Smelting companies will be or
ganized under the Webb law—to
handle all silver exports and to pro
tect American silver producers from
foreign domination and price control.
The reaction of silver from $1.20 the.
maximum reached when the white
metal was thrown into the open mar
ket—to $l.l6—believed to be brought
about by European combination,
forced the action of the American
Interests.
