SHI I*.
At a meeting held Friday evening
at Pioneer hall the local igloo went
on record as opposed to any change
in the mining laws of Alaska, as
proposed in the Alentz house reso
lution and supported by Senator
Porter J. McCumbir.
A. G. Thompson, as chairman, ex
plained the proposed law and Mine
Inspector Alfred Dyer participated
in the discussion Vii favor of the
measure with a number of others
opposing.
The action of thl Igloo was based
more upon fear Jf revolutionary
changes creeping in than of the pro
posed apex law. and the result of
the vote was influenced generally
by the assumption that it would be
better to leave the law alone than
open It to the influences of conserv
ationists and others. The resolu
tion adopted is as follows:
RESOLUTION

Pioneers of Alaska, comprising 500

iiELLFR BROTHERS,
members, in regular meeting assem
bled:
That this Igloo. composed of pio
neers with more than lifteen yours'
residence in Alaska, unqualifiedly
opposes the passage of the hill
known as the Arentz bill for the re
vision and codification of the min
ing laws, being H. K. 77C3, believ
ing that if this bill became a law in
Alaska the effect would be to cur
tail prospecting, retard development
in the mining Induitry, and serious
ly injure the growth and prosperity
of the territory.
Some of the principal objections ti>
the bill, as applied to Alaska, we
find as follows:
1. The requirement for recording I
of claims located in tlie land ofllce j
only, with no provision for record in
the district where the rlaim is locat
ed. would practically put an end to
the locating of claims in the terri
tory. except In the vicinity of the
one and only land office, situated at
the capital at Juneau.
From this point Alaska extends
east 150 miles, south 300 miles,
north 1,000 miles and west 2.000
miles.
2. The average prospector Is not
a surveyor, and usually cannot find
or afford to employ one. To locate
according to the cardinal lines in
Alaska, which Is not surveyed
would he prohibitive, and such at-j
tempted locations made during a I
stampede or mining discovery would
be productive of unnecessary litiga-,
Hon—the amount «nd extent of {
which can only be imagined
3. Verification of discovery upon
a lode claim by a surveyor would bt>|
a luxury not to be hoped for by tlie
average Alaska prospector.
4. We are not .n favor of the
complete change sougi.t to be ac
complished by the proposed law in I
the theory upon wuich lode claims!
are now acquired. Vnder the pres-j
ent law the vein is the principal i
consideration, and .t can be acquir
ed to the limits of !he length of the!
claim and to its utmost depth, bv
discovery and development work,
performed annually, till patent s'lall
issue.
l"nder the proposed law. the vein
is made secondary to the acquisition
of the surface area comprised with
in the limits of the claim, and its
possession and ownership termin
ates when it depaits from the side
lines of the claim extended verti
cally downward; twice the area is
allowed, no discovery Is required for
live years, and $100 in assessment
work may cover fosr claims.
It Is the belief of this igloo that
this provision is net in the interest
of the prospector and the owner of
non-producing mines; it is doubt
ful If It iR In the Inlerest of the pro
ducing mines to be developed in the
future, or in the ii.terest of capital
seeking Investment In the mining in
dustry.
The long line of mining decisions,
so carefully interpreting the terms
of the present law would be set al
naught, and the courts would be
confronted with the problem of in
terpreting the new law; the mining
industry in Alaska would languish
and the prospector would be driven
from the frontier.
Adopted at Anchorage Alaska, this
13th day of January, 1922.

INDIANAPOLIS TEAM OF 1877
Pitcher Nolan Worked Every Day In
Week, a* Did Hli Battery Mate,
Silver Flint
Speaking of baseball teams which
were great—the old Balttmores, the
Brooklyn Superbus, the Cubs, the
Giants, the White S<>x, the Athletics
and others—one of our friends whose
sport experiences go bark two gen
erations, says one of the greatest
teams in Its day was the Indianapolis
team of 1877, winners of the pennant
in the International association.
On thut team was the great battery
of that day—Silver Fliut. catcher, and
"The Only" Nolan, pitcher, says the
Indianapolis News. The other players
were Frank Houtz, first baseman: Joe
Quest, second base; Fred Warner,
third base ; D. J. Mack, shortstop; J. B.
McSorley, left field; William Itellley,
center, and Ad Itocap. right field.
This team was built by its malin
ger. L>. E. I'ettlt. who gathered the
players from several teams In the
Middle West. One of the greatest
hlnkers on the team was McSorley,
known as "Trick." because of his
penchant for outguessing the opposi
tion.
The work of the great battery.
Nolan and Flint, was the outstanding
feature of the play of the Indianapolis
team.
Nolan pitched every day In the
week—114 sii'iies In the season. Flint
•■aught In all of these games. To the
pitcher of the modern day, who can
pitch about one game In four, tills
•Joes seem as overwork.
To lie sure. $."«*"i.O««l.(XiO paid In lux
ury taxes looks, as Washington says,
like a g'H>d deal, but how in the world
does anybody expect the plain people
to iret a long without luxuries?
