ever or whatever ti ay he the fact, in

can only conclude that it, is the work
of some officious meddler, or of some
person intent upon serving interests
wholly selfish and unworthy of favor
aide consideration. It may well, ho
doubted if any considerable iniiutier
if prospectors in any part of Alaska
have asked for the introduction or
pissageof such a bill. It is much
nore likelv a scheme concocted to
licet the desires, not of the honest
nitier and prospector, but rather of
he non-resident claimant hv power of
ittorney, who lias “hit otT more than
ic can conveniently chew," and is in
put upon evading a law the spirit, if
not actual word, of which lie has vio
ated. The bill, if passed may servo
lie purposes of non-resident claimants
d large undeveloped mineral tracts,
hut will he a detriment to the honest
niners and prospectors who otherwise
night find employment in doing as
•t'Stiiem work on other than their
mn locations. The exemption sug
gested In the bill is neither asked for
