Tbe appellate court appear® to
■differ witU Jhdge \Vickers*htm’S
■statement that 1B-cents to the pan
does not ooilstitute a sufficient die*
•covery of gold'ori a elsim. If it1
;j»as left to the average placer
miner 13-cents to the pan would
■be called not only a discovery, but
-a bonanza.
Jf the Seward organ of the town
site at that place wishes to boost
instead of knocking the town it
• would show more wisdom by avoid
ing a discussion of the tight for
place among the railroad' officials.
It would* appear from the paper
that more time is being devoted to«
the scrap than there is to railroad'
building.
You want to begin to figure oat,
bow low y«« can value yonr town (
property now. The assessor will
he around next week.
If you are interested in the de
velopment of the mineral resources
of this section don’t fail to get
your name down as one of the
charter members of the Alaska
Copper Mining Exchange. It will
help greatly in advertising our
mines in the States.
The News in a half column' edi
torial urges the people of Seward
jteuineula1 to make a creditable
showing at the coming fair in Seat
tle- The article is-a' good one and
the idea expressed is-all right, but
Wouldn't it have been more appli
cable to this section if the words
Reward peninsula in the reprint
bad been changed- to-South western
Alaska?
Reward is going to be the sup
ply point for the Reynolds-Alaska
mines at Boulder bay and Land
lbek bay, according to the Gate
way: Htnv the supplies' will be
taken to the mines is not stated.
It is announced that the judge
will he obliged to return to Juneau
on the Bertha to attend to his bus
iness there, so there is little prob
ability of the calendar being
cleaned up during this session. A
dumber*- cf* important civil cases
will have to be held over as well
as some criminal1 matters. It is
Uncertain when there will be an
other term of court although there
ik some talk of a tertmlate in No
vember or December.
A Wortderrtil Property.
X member of' the signal corps,
who has been prospecting in the
copper country this summer re
turned to town‘this-week with the
nows of a most remarkable quarts'
discovery. According to- our in

OOpperTore which' is-a! mile and a1
'Quarter by SO feet in sise. We
Ruled to learn whether the SO* feet
applied^ to- the depth; width or
Ifength of the deposit, but In1 any
event it is a massive body. The

However is- the richness of the ore.
According to the locator, who is
amost conservative man, the ore
Wilds 120 per cent cooper besides
Other values not Worth mentioning.
