MR. SULZER'S RELATIONS
WITH HIS UNION EMPLOYES
At a meeting of Sulzer Miners’ Union No.
l.V_\ Wolern Eederati. n of Miners, held
June b. the members voted unanimously to
support Charles Sulzer. the Democratic
nr.mince for delegate to congress from
Ala.-ka. >:tys the Juneau Empire. A letter
signed by President Thomas H. But Dr and
Secretary II. K. Rafileson of the union,
sent to the secretaries of the labor unions
through, ut Alaska. says:
"At a meeting held in our hull on June
e. 191b. all members being present, a mo
tion was made, seconded and unanimou.dy
carried to give Senator Charles A. Sulzer of
the Alaska legislature iur entire support in
lus campaign for delegate t<» congress.
"Mr. Sulzer has been a resident here for
fourteen years. Until the last year he
•-■.as general mrnager for the Alaska Imhis
iri:il Company, but -in. •• la<t year he has
oper.ticd the mines himself as a lessee.
Dining all these fourteen years he ha.
proved hiin.-rlf a true friend of unionism.
a good fellow and a friend of labor in gen
cr; 1
* He trave the eight hour day of his own
free will in 1902, upon starting operations
in Alaska, and this was 1 -ng before any
one else had the same rule in Alaska. He
has always paid the highest wages in this
(listriet, given everybody a square deal and
treated everybody as a man. There is not
a man who has ever worked in Senator
Sulzer s camp who will not speak of him
in the hgihest terms, and we know from
1 mg observation that he has the qualiti
cations to ably represent us in congress.
“The foregoing are only a few of the
main facts of Mr. Sufer’s character which
have endeared him to the work. rs. so we
wish you to rally to his support and l-wve
no obstacle in the way of his elvtinn for
delegate to congress from Alaska."

the length of that creek, it ' ’ up tk
winding mad around the n w: n.u. at tk
hc:d of the creek to the • m ii. in
abrupt dimb presents ouiny views ; . n. ' t r
failing interest. Ydin.iing around the lulls
one gradually reach:.- a point who-- t';e
whi h of I-iat ere k is in view, with the.
bu.siliiu little city at it.- mouth. Some bis
tirate away can be seen the dredge of tile .
Yukon Gold Company, industriously on
gaged in its task i f lifting and washing the
rich gravels of that famous creek. 1 artlier
up-siicam can be seen a plant being made
ready for working bench claims not reached
bv the dredge, and at the head of the
creek, and now immediately beneath the ■
visitors, the extensive Workings of the Up- ;
Grade, where Dave Strandberg is hydraul •
iekiiig into the mountainside end where he j
is now installing a small stamp mill for the j
treatment of ores taken from the numerous
quartz stringers found in the bedrock.
Inspiring View from Summit
Arrived at the Summit mine, where the
party is greeted by genial Harry Yeager,
an entrancing view is obtained. Looking 1
down Happy creek and over a small divide
that has been severed by glacial actidn, can
be seen the full length of Willow creek, and
the workings of Jonas Brewis and Frank
Manley. With the aid of field glasses can
be seen the ponderous drag line scraper op
erated by Frank Manley, and its movements
can be noted at this distance of three miles, j
Beyond lies the Iditarod river, like a silken
ribbon of sheer white, where the power plant
of the Yukon Gold Company can be dis- ;
cerned clearly. Farther he tier after tier of
mountain ranges, and A1 Walsh, who knows ;
every foot of mountain and valley in this
section of Alaska, points out objects of !
interest. That button-shaped mountain j
jieak in the distance rises in the neighbor
hood of Flat creek, a tributary of Donlin
Creek, a good hundred miles away by trail
(and A1 tells of a shovel he has cached
near there which he intends to pick up
some davl. On the other side of that
law range lies Marshall City, and beyond
that he can discern landmarks which tell
him the location of objects of especial in- j
terest to him in the Kuskokwmi valley. Fur- I
ther to the north can be seen the Summit
roadhouse, on the divide between Iditarod
and Flat, and one can easily imagine that
he can recognize Mine Host Bismarck sit- :
ting in the doorway with a welcoming smile
for an approaching guest. Iditarod itself
is obscured by the hills, but its location can
be easily placed.
Still Has Some Snow
Half a mile above the Summit workings
can be seen an extensive splotch of white
amid the grass and flowers of the hillside,
and it is learned that this is what remains
cf the immense piles of snow heaped up
;!i!ring the winter to provide a water sup
I ly for summer mining operati' ns. 'i he
process of accumulating these snow piles1
is an interesting one, and furnishes < fnpl
incut for quite a number of men during the I
winter. I.ong fences are built and the fieiee
imuiiL’in winds pile up the drifting '•now
tgain.-t them. When the snow has readied
their tops the fences are liftt ! and set on ,
top of ill** snow bank, and this is repeated !
until the drift thus created reaches a height
of from forty to nearly a hundred feet.
Being clo.-dy packed by the wind, this
makes a reservoir of no sma l capacity, the
water from which is available until late in
he summer.
A Golden Pavement
An in-portion of the workings of the
Summit mine was a revelation to I he news
paper man and to Christy Anthonie-on. who
was one < f the party, and the latter stepped 1
almost reverently along the channels which
had been 1 ft by the ground sluicing, and
from which workmen were removing sands 1
gmeiou.ly sprinkled with gleaming gold,!
in some places the bedrock being covered
with patches of the precious mineral the
size of a man's hand. No matrr what
eternity may hold in store for him. the
Met City jeweler can at least say that he
has walked on golden pavements.
The gold from these workings is of two
distinct col a -. One, a rather llght-e; lore !
metal, if i< explained by Mr. Walsh, i- that
which is found in the quartz stringers. The
other, of a much darker shade, i- fr »m the
lose graveM. The difference in c-l >r is
said to be the result of chemical action of
properties contained in the quartz, as the
cold i> from the same source.
The water from the reservoir \va< turned
on for ih * benefit of the visitors, and the
newspaper Joan was given the novel experi
ern e of tearing dnv. n few hundred ! n.
in .o'- ci I s-* of g -ld-bearing gfavrl with
the aid of a monitor which control- a strea :t

Bigg to -tart work in the Interior immedi
anlv. This means that >1 250,000 U shortly
to he spent on railroad construction be
i we; n Fairbanks and the Non an a coal
fields.
Immediately after receiving the wire ap
piking him that the appropriation had been
made. Commissioner Riggs wired F. II
Bailey, the division engineer in charge at
Nenana, to get out bids f r clearing tin
right of way on both sides of the river and (
to put out cross section parties. Mr. Riggs
himself started at once to prepare the spe- ;
cificaticns for the contracts for station
work, and as soon as the cross section work
is done, which will be in the immediate
future, the contracts will be let. The cross
section work consists of a measurement
which is necessary in estimating the amount |
of ground which must be moved in grading,
so that the contractor may know what is
expected of him. It also assists the en- j
gineers in measuring up the work done |
by the contractor.
Mr. Riggs aio instructed Engineer Bailey
to put a crew to work staking out a wagon
road from Nenana to Coldstream. When
the staking is done the road will be put
in condition for hauling supplies and ma
terial for construction work.
Mr. Riggs states that the specifications for
station work will be published soon in all
of the Fairbanks papers. Each contractor
will be given as large a piece of work as
he can prove that he is able to handle.
When an applicant for a contract offers to
bid he will be taken over the ground by
an engineer and told just what is expected
of him.
, Mr. Riggs was a passenger for Nenana on
the Yukon, sailing Friday. He is making
the trip in order to start things off on that
end. As soon as everything is set to moving
it is probable that work will commence on
the Fairbanks end.

in the limelight in the Last. According to '
the Literary Digest, he startled Columbia 1
University recently by preaching a bacca
laureate serm< n to it in which he took a i
decided shy at what lie call ’d “prol'e.--ional j
ized philanthropy.” That periodical reports,
the sermon as follows:
“The relief granted by tins sort of char
ity may be real and necessary, he admitted,
but the altitude is such that ‘any »rt of
warm human sympathy seems destroyed and
the obligati.’ii presses intolerably upon the
sensitive recipient.’ The preacher expressed
his feeling by quoting the familiar c >uj I n :
“Organized charity, carefully iced.
In the name of a cautious, statistied
Chri.-t.”
“The nrchdeac* n protested that In* ha 1
no ‘objection to being denned up in n’u.-on,
but he felt that if he had to choose he
‘world rather be human and dirty than in
human and clean.’ ihe ‘professional -m:
