TOLOVANA SURE TO
MAKE A GOOD CAMP
“Tell the newspaper men of Fair
banks to take the question mark off
the Tolovana, as good pay has been
found and the future of the camp is
assured," was the message received
by McGowan & Clark from August \Y.
Conradt, the well-known mining man,
who has been making u thorough ex
amination of the new camp. As Mr.
Conradt is considered a conservative
mining man, and as he has spent tie
greater part of the past six months
making an examination of the district,
this good news, coming from him,
makes everybody feel elated.
All*. Conradt lias found good pay in
two holes, hut in his letter he does j
not aay how much it will run to tin |
foot or how extensive the pay streak is.
ilo is satislied, however, that the dis
trict will prove a winner, and already (
is making arraiigenn nls to put .1 good

CARNEGIE LIKES FORD’S
EMPLOYMENT PLAN
N'KW YORK.—Andrew Carnegie,
who recently testified before the Fcd
eral Industrial Relations committee,
said he considered Henri Ford a
genius.
“Any man who can accomplish what
lie lias is n remarknble man." he said,
“and anything lie says nr docs wai
rants careful consideration.
“I am looking forward with real
pleasure to a visit to Ids plant, which
I promised him to make."
With regard to the profit sharing
plan adopted hy .Mr. Ford with his
employes. Mr. ('arnogio said:
"1 think it is a step in the right
direction. A stop toward a bettor un
derstanding between employer and I
employee.
'I think, however, the plan of Judge
<tarry is lust. A man should he • n
titled to a share in the imlustrv in
* which ho works, and the host way to
give him that is to allow him to pur
j chase shares in the industry!, wiflh
certain gunrantees.'*

ALASKA NOTES
(From t_.ur Exchanges.)
At a meeting of the Sitka < tutdoor
Club at tho homo of Row Goo. Howard,
held rooontlv, plans wore made towards
having tho stronms near thoro stocked
with trout.
C. F. Stagger, the deep-sea diver who
was so successful In his work in con
nection with tho raising of the steamer
Curaoo and also the halibut schooner
Montana, which was burned to the
water’s edge and sunk about ten miles
from Sitka last May, has made appli
cation to the United States government
for a permit to salvage tho gold from
the Russian gunboat Neva, which after
striking a rock, sunk in about ten fa
thoms of water off Capo Edgecomb,
more than sixty years ago. Accord
ing to Father Sergius Koslrometinoff,
of the Russo-Greek church in Sitka, the
Neva was sent to Sitka during Russian
rule with nearly a quarter of a million
dollars in gold to pay Russian oilicials.
lion she was nearing Kruzof Island
she lost her course in a fog, striking a
reef and sinking s0 rapidly tho crow
barely escaped in small boats.
JUNEAU.—Slot machines are nbol
• ished. The stop was inevitable. So
Plain have been the signs for some
time that all "who ran could read.”
Juneau has been harboring gamblers.
These men played in certain houses.
They had their "cappers." preyed upon
workingmen and others. The police
tried to secure evidence upon which to
convict, after t lie houses were notified
to quit, but received no aid from the
People who were in position to give
evidence. Moreover, some of the cigarj
stores anil business houses discarded
the straight-play slot machines and in
stalled "money machines,” which yield
ed better than f>0 per cent, profit and
"no trade or exchange mine." In other
words, the machines wore straight
gambling devices and just as certain
to “clean the sucker” as the card
sharper and his trained "rapper." The
only wonder is that such conditions
were allowed to run as long as they did
in the First Division, having been
placed under the ban in alt other di
visions of Alaska. The next thing in
order will be the regulation of the sa
loons, unless the saloon men themselves
begin to clean house. Wholesale boot
legging to Indians and filling the hos
pitals and jails with habitual drunk
ards are not good advertisements for
the saloons. Fiery time a drunken
man staggers from a saloon and goes
along the streets swearing, a few “dry",
votes are made. “Dry" sentiment is
gaining rapidly in Alaska the same as
is true of states outside, not because of
the retail of liquor in itself, but because
of the abuses which arise in connec
tion with the retail of intoxicants.
Those who cannot see the sign about
them and realize what the inevitable
result will be are blind.
The other day W. K. Dunkle, an en
gineer fur the Guggenheim Interests in
Alaska, arrived at Seward from Knik.
Some time ago an outfit was shipped
which is said to have been Intended for
his use in investigating tins Broad Pass
country. Mr. Dunkle will return on the
'Traveller to Knik. Ho dooa not feel at
'liberty to speak of conditions in the
| Broad Pass district nor of his coming
work.
