iiS TAKING OUT
$1,000,000 ORE
_r
That Tom Aitkon and associates !
are taking out ore in the Kantishna
country that will run from $f>00 to
$1,000 a ton, and will have from
$400,000 to $800,000 Worth of ore at
Roosevelt with the opening of Spring
s the information‘conveyed to the
Governor's office in a letter received
from Alexander Mitchell, who wrote
from the ground.
Mr. Mitchell’s letter is dated at
Kantishna, January 21, and is ad
dressed to Gov. Thomas Riggs. Jr.
If says:
“Knowing that you are interested
:n the progress of Alaska, I write
to inform you of the quartz pros
pects, I have been told are under op- ;
tion to Tom Aitkon, it is said for ,
$*220,000. 'I’ll * first payment of ten]
Ihousand doiia s is said to have been
paid lu;;t ptcmh'M. Mrn working
| for Aitken found a stringer of galcii*. ,
that runs from a few inches to three,
fort that is said to run all through
from $200 to $4,200 to the ton in
silver. besides carrying gold from |
•t few dollars to $100 and also 21
per emit, copp,*r.
“There are 11 or 15 men working
la> and night in the mine. Ed Bart
rt: has a contract for hauling the
i
>iv to Koosevelt. He has from IT
to 2') head of horses. 1 w* nt up to ,
h<* mine the other day and was told
hat they had taken out already
about dOO tons and expected to
take out 800 by spring. The ore
is yaid to keep the same rirhne. s
all through. Some of the miners
think the ore will average $1,000 a
Ion all through. The most con- j
servativc thought the average would
ie $500 per ton.
“The present needs of the camp
t here are a wagon road to Koosevelt
and a mail service from Xenana ,
to here at least once a month. I
.m told we hav^e a postoffice, but
without the mail delivery, it is of
no benefit.
“Through all the information 1 can
, pick up. 1 would suggest with a view
i U) the future, when engineers arc to
look up a route into here for a rail-1
ioad that they start at Singleton
.oad house on mail line and go a few
leg rocs south of west to mouth of
’ Cb.ai water, up the Clearwater and
I over Myrtie Summit, i am also aware
[ that Stephen Capps recommended the
■ upper route by Highway Pass. I hope
: you will use your influence in helping
v us gel the above improvements for the
• camp/’

Crices above quoted are all for number one beat grade fur*. Lower

WE ARE THE LARGEST DEALERS IN RAW AND MANUFACT
URED FURS IN THE NORTHWEST and all we ask of you Mr. Shipper
* is to give us the chance of a trial shipment and we will convince you that
we pay more for furs and make quicker returns than you can get any
where in the country. We hate been in business in Alaska for 36 years and
have built up a very extensive trade. We sell manufactured furs in all
* parts of the United States, Canada and in a great many European Cities.
Uy shipping to us you are not only helping an Alaskan industry but
>ou are heiping yourself to build up a business that belongs to Alaska.
* We eliminate the middleman entirely as we buy direct from the trap
* per and trader and sell direct to the consumer, thus we are able to pay
* you a better price than you can get elsewhere. WE MAKE RETURNS
THE SAME DAY SHIPMENT IS RECEIVED.
* If so desired when your shipment amounts to $100.00 or more, we will
* wire our bid and if not entirely satisfactory you may wire at our expense
’ and we will ship to any place you designate.
* All we ask of you is to be fair with yourself as well as with us and
make us a trial shipment, the result will make you a steady shipper.
