are decidedly encouraging and it now
begins to look as though the new
camp at the head of the Matanuska is
going to be one of the big placer camps
of Alaska. As soon as the assessment
work has been completed on the ground
that was staked last fall, some real
prospecting was done with results that
have been most encouraging.
According to letters received, good
pay has been located or. t lat creek by
C. A. White of Valdez, in the first
hole that was bedrocked on that creek.
White will sink another hole to dem
onstrate the width of the paystreak.
Good pay has been found on Shovel
ereek by a man named Ervin, and
finds a»*e also reported on McDougal
and Albert creeks. Crooked creek
>ti!l looks good and a party of Fair
banks mining men have takei a bond
for ninety thousand dollars on a block
of ground, and will drill it with a Key
stone drill.
