3(1100 TONS COPPER
ELLAMAR MINE PRODUCT
During the past year the Ellamar
Mining company mined 30,000 tons
of ore according to a statement by
Supt. L. L. Middlecamp. The prop
erty is considered one of the best pay
ing mines in Alaska and considerable
money has been spent in improve
ments, new docks have been built, a
tramway erected, new machinery in
stalled and the mine placed on an
economical operating basis.
The copper ore ,at Ellamar con
tains considerable gold; more than
enough to pay cost of mining and re
fining. The ore is also in demand
for fluxing.
The filling system is now used at
the mine. The big lenses of ore are
taken out and the waste is then filled
in the vaults left by the mining of the
ore. This prevents any cave-in of
the walls.

CHITINA TRAIL NO PLACE
FOR AUTOS AT THIS TIME.
Robert Sheldon, the big trail auto
stage man, said last night that he
was going up the trail today to bring
ais mashine which has been out
since the heavy snows fell, and that
le probably would not send out any
more automobiles to Chitina until
he snow went off or lessened con
siderably. He says there is not
snough traffic to warant their opera
ion as he had planned with narrowed
wheels treads but is going to watch
he situation here and at Chitina and
is soon as business warrants he will
resume auto staging. — Fairbanks

I
Attorney Robert E. Capers address
ed the students of the schools yester
day on the subject of the constitution
of the United States. Tile sole pur
pose of the the talk, as pointed out by
the speaker, was to point out briefly
the difference between the powers of
the United States government nnd that
of the several State Governments.
This difference, he aserted, is very
frequently lost sight of, and the Im
pression Is held by many that Con
gress cnn pasb prnctlcally any kind of
laws that it may see fit. Mr. Capers
asserted that there are really 49 in
dependent governments in the United
States,—the Federal, or National,
government at Washington, and the
respective governments of the 48
states.
The manner in which this arrange
ment came about was very briefly
Pointed out. During the Revolution,
the Colonies found it necesBary to
bind themselves together for common
defense, and the Articles of Confera
tion were agreed to by the Colonies.
After the war, it was found that the
Confederation was too weak to be of
any service, and the present Consti
tution was founded. Under the con
stitution, the United States Govern
ment has the sole right to legislate
I upon many subjects, Buch as the
coining of money, the maintaining of
the army and navy, the regulation of
shipping on the seas, the declaring of
war, the making of treaties, and the
controlling of commerce between the
e'ates themselves. No state has the
right to make any law that is contrary
to the laws of Congress. On the
other hand, the United States Govern
ment cannot pass any law that it is
no given the right to pass by the
Constitution, such, for instance, as
laws governing marriage and divorce,
the sale of liquor in a state, and many
pthe such matters. Several illus
trations were given showing the dif
ferences between the laws that Con
gress may pass and those which only
a state may pass.
Mr. Capers presented his subject
in such a manner as hold the closest
attention of his audience, making
clear many points regarding our gov
ernment from which even older stu
dents might profit.

The English have no name for it.
The. Germans call it Sittlichkeit.
Sittllchkeit 1b the system of habitual
or customary conduct, ethical rather
than legal, which embraces all the
obligations of the citizen which Is
"bad form" or not “the thing" to dis
regard.
The system of Ethical Habit of a
community is of a dominating charac
ter, for the decision and Influence of
•he whole community is embodied in
that social Habit. ~
Because that conduct is systematic
and covers the whole field of Society
the individual will is closely related by
it to the will and spirit of the com
munity.
And out of this relation arises the
power of adequately controlling the
conduct of the Individual.
LORD HALDANE.
Has this power become so weak in
our community that it will counten
ance the warfare between Public offi
cials without protest?
Is this fight with our tacit consent,
not a reflection on the Sittlichkeit
of the whole community?
We do not care who started this
fight nor have we any longer any in
erest in it, whether the cost of the
Bulkhead was $1000 or $3000. The
work has been done and paid for and
that Is all there is to it. A Business
man having accepted and paid for a
contract does not start a postmortem 1
investigation. He has new problems
to solve. The interest of Cordova de
mands that this wordy warfare should
cease.
If the space in the personal war- j
fare by the two papers and the j
thoughts and labor to fill that space j
were used for something really worth
while, something that would advance
the growth of Cordova either socially, j
morally, or commercially, create en- J
thusiasm for miles of new streets,
sidewalks, yes and dozen more Hulk
heads, even if expensive, we might
accomplish something.
A kicking Mule has to stop pulling
and Cordova needs today as much ana
more pulling than it did six months
ago when all of us, excepting none,
brought the Chamber of Commerce
‘o life again and achieved acknowt
edged results far above nny other
town in Alaska.
Let the Editors, the Mayor and the
belligerent Councilmen prefer the
good of the community to their own
individual feelings and thereby earn
the thanks—if not the good will—of
every right minded citizen of Cordova.
Yours for Higher Nationality and
Citizenship.
