It was when resolution No. 12. pre
sented by J. L. Steele of AJaekn asking
Tor a representative in the national con
gress was reported back by the com
mittee with tlie recommendation not to
concur, that th fight of the day devel
oped. The resolution was as, follows:
He Debate Started.
"Whereas. The district of Alaska has
a population of nearly 70,000 American
citizens, a large majority of whom are

gress. miners and prospectors, and
Whereas, These pioneers have no way
of obtaining redress for their grievances,
except by a personal appeal to congress,
and
"Whereas, Their appeals must be
made to representatives or senators
from other localities who have the wel
fare of their own districts and con
stituents ta care for, and consequently
these personal appeals have as yet been
of no avail or benefit, and
"Whores. It is the wish and desire
of all Alaskans that they be represented
in 1 -ongreas of the f nited States by a
delegate elected by the popular vote of
the people, to the end that such laws
may be enacted that will be to the
benefit of mining and other interests,
therefore, be it
"Resolved, That the American mining
congress, in their regular convention
assembled In Portland, Or.. August
1904. do hereby indorse this wish of
Alaskans, as by so doing the great min
eral storehouses of the north land will
be more speedily developed, and, be it
further
".Resolved. That this congress will us
every honorable means to secure to
Alaska that representation our fore
fathers fought for at Bunker Hill, and
be It further
"Resolved, That this congress appeal
to the congress of the United States
for their consideration at the next ses
sion, asking for Immediate action, to
the end that these hardy Americans may
enjoy the privilege of representation
according to the rlghta guaranteed In
our constitution."
Chairman Buckley of the committee
made th motion to adopt this report
when trouble came in bunches. He had
but seated himself when Delegate Jo
seph of Bait Lake demanded to tessjw
some of the reasons why the commit
tee wii reporting adversely. Express
ing himself In this connection he wished
to say that the committee on resolu
tions "was not a star chamber body."
A few other remarks of this character,
which reflecttu upon the committee with
much severity, brought Chairman Buck
ley to his feet This official explained
that It was not the purpose of the com
mittee to Impede mining work In Alaska,
but that J.ha committee t It that the
resolution was beyond the legitimate
scope of mining congress duties and It
had been the purpose to avoid local
questions.
Alaska's Reply.
J. T. Cornforth, delegate from Alaska.
was next given the floor, for a graphic
depletion of Alaska's commercial and
mineral position. Following th state
ment that Alaska had 70.000 miners and
her trade with th Puget sound was
$36,000,000 annually, he took a survey
of the ill complained of as follows:
"If you In Alaska have any business
with the government It is necessary to
travel (.000 mile to transact that which
may require only 30 minutes of your
time when you finally reach the proper
official. We are not even a territory;
W are the same as the Filipinos. We

The father of the resolution. J. L.
Steele, was also heard In an Impassioned
appeal for the great north country. He
noted that Alaka. in her relet'0"" to
this government, is completely self-sustaining
and has paid for herself several
times over. In the reports of the gov

It Is set forth that there stands to the

Motion's Complaint.
As one of the first and most patient
worker In behalf of the congress. Sec
retary Irwin Mahon took the floor to
.nnstulate arainst such disposition of
a matter he held clearly within the prov
ince of that body. He urged me oouy
pot to reject such opportunities to aid,
in whatever form they occurred. . Clos
ing his remarks, th aged secretary
""'l have been accused of being quarrel
some snd about everything but a dig
nified gentleman. I have gone through
It all for your sake, gentlemen. I have
nav,r made n dollar out of this work.
for It Is all for the cause. Yet I do not
believe today that I have a friend in the
city of Portland."
This digression, for a word In his
general defense, which is the first time
that the secretary has taken the floor
Hurlnsr the Dresant session, brought Col
onel Crawford to his feet with a hearty
assurance that he stood with the sec
retary. Debate continued for a period. Steel,
Jones of Alaska, Dltroar of California,
Crawford of Oregon, Leehy of Alaska
and . others participated, "being replied
to by Chairman Buckley and Secretary
Talmage. At the close the congress did
not refer the resolution again for fur
ther consideration, but adopted it at
once.
Other Resolutions.
A resolution was presented by A L
Morrla of Portland, urging the several
states hsvlng mining interests to enact
legislation that would llcenso the min
ing engineer. In like manner as the phy
sician, locomotive engineer and other
professions and trades are licensed. The
resolution recited that much of the los
In mining by stockholders was due te
fictitious report of men who took unto
themselves the title of mining engineer,
and reported In a false manner upon
properties. This resolution was referred
for report.
Delegate Joseph of Utah Introduced
sn amendatory resolution to No. 5,
which relates to records of mineral pat
ents and the monuments marKing
boundaries. It merely strengthened
the thought expressed previously in No.
5, and was referred.
Delegate . Patterson of Omaha, In a
formal resolution, asked the congress
to express Its thanks to President Roose
velt for the Interest he hsd manifested
In mining. Irrigation and forestry o'f

the committee.
Selection of nominees for the office
of director was provided for in a mo
tion made by Delegate Abbott of Colo

nating committee of three, who are to
choose nine candidates, will be named
by the chair at once.

Colonel Drake and Chancellor Andrews
Make Strong Speeches.
Col. F. V. Drake of Portland was the
first speaker on yesterday afternoon's
program. His theme was "The Mineral
Resources of Oregon." A historical
sketch of mining In the state, with a
large amount of statistical matter rela
tive to production and variety of min
erals, was woven into an address of 40
minutes, to which the visitors listened
closely, this being the first detailed
statement of Oregon' mineral resource
that ha been made to them since they
convened here. Colonel Drake closed
with the following eloquent peroration,
which brought forth general applause:
"So after dinner (we call it aupper out
here) of boan soup, mountain trout from
the neighboring stream, grouse mur
dered near the cabin door, boiled pota
toes mealy and smoking, biscuits ruddy
and hot. white sop done brown, pie of
fruit garnered from ybn huckleberry
IVitch, and coffee black coffe all pre
pared In the huge fireplace of the min
er's mountain home, we Ho in the holy
twilight on the grass and flowers out
side the cubin walls and listen to I he
voice in the happy, near-by brook, the
mystical harping up among the needle
of the pins, th crickets practicing on
their pipes, the plaintive wooing of the
turtle dove, the weird, low murmur (you
can scarcely hear It) which sometimes
comes out of the very hearts of the
mountains, sinoke the pipes of peace and
contentment and strive by spirit-telegraphy
to reach th consciousness of
loved ones far away. Ah' the serenity
and splendor, the sublimity, solemnity,
glory of deepening twilight In the moun
tains of our western wonder land1"
Mr. Richard's Speech.
T. A. Rleksrd, editor of the Engineer
ing and Mining Journal, and for years
a leading mining engineer, was asked by
President Richards to address the con
gr. Mr. Rlckard apologised for th
absence of John Hays Hammond and
James Gnyley, who with himself were
appointed by the president as delegates
at largo. Mr. Gayley is engaged on Im
portant metallurgical problems In con
nection with iron ore reduction, and Mr.
Hammond Is just home from an ex
hausting professional trip, so that nei
ther felt that no could cross the conti
nent to attend the Portland session.
The engineer testified to the sincerity
of purpose animating th congress, as
manifested by the address of President
Richards, snd the energy 'with which the
members were getting down to work In
hand.
"Mining does need some organization
through which it can make Its wants
known," said Mr. Rlckard. "Mining
m n as a rule do not maintain very clone
relation with their representative In
Washington, and hence It occur that
their Interests do not receive th prompt
and extensive attention perhaps devoted
to other Industries by legislator, for
this reason I hope that the agitation for

In the ' evening u large number of
Portland people were present to hear
the address of Chancellor K. Benjamin
Andrews, and the attendance 01 dele
gates was exceptionally large. "The
Promoter, His Advancement to Develop
ment," was the subject discussed, under
which caption the educator endeavored
to show the value to mining of the man
who goes out and digs up money for
development work, and while testify
ing to this usefulness, avoid endorse
ment of some of the malpractices
charged to mining promoters the world
over. Over capitalised companies, a
common feature of late promotions,
came in for censure. Limited regula
tion by federal statute of any corpora
tion doing business beyond the bounds
of the state was another point made that
will probably receive further considera
tion during this congress.
