Senator Millard Returns from
Long Visit to New Camp—
Predicts Great Future.
Senator B. F. Millard returned
today from a lengthy visit to the
Port Wells mining section and
is very favorably impressed with
the country. In speaking of the
camp the senator said, "The
camp is new1 and as a result Ihc
work so far done has not been
very extensive but enough has
been done to demonstrate that
the camp will be one of the larg
est gold producing sections in
Alaska. ;
"I visited not one but 20 prop
erties all of which have the mak
ings of a mine, the development
work is slow because most of the
owners are so contident of the
outcome that they do not desire
to part with their claims until
they have at least demonstrated
the great worth of the property
and thus insuring themselves a
better price than if they were to
sell them as prospects. Others
even hope to open the claims and
make them pay their way asthey
are opened.
"The Tatum property is one of
the best in that section and we
will continue development work
and hope to have it producing in
the near future, the properly is
ideally situated near the water,
with a big water power almost on
the claims. I
“We will however, continue the
work of opening the claims and
have considerable ore blocked out
before we go to the expense of
erecting a mill.
“Port Wells, says the sena
tor, “is the coming camp of Alas
ka and will hr one of the largest
producers in litc territory.”
