THE SEARCH FOR GOLD
“There’s gold, and it’s haunt
ing and haunting;
It’s luring me on as of old;
Yet it isn’t gold that I’m want
ing '
So much as just finding the
gold.” —Service

MORE DIFFICULTY
ADDITIONAL TOW SUMMONED
TO BRING DISABLED HALI
BUTER UP THE BAY
After picking up the Omaney
from her anchorage near Resurrec
tion Cape yesterday afternoon
where she laid in helpless condition
because of a disabled engine at the
mercy of the seas had a storm come
up, the two smaller boats the Chase
and the Rolph No. 2., from Seward
where unable to tow the big hali
but.er after getting her into the bay
wnere the winds began to play with
her as they did for three days pre
viously. This was brought about
partly by additional engine trouble
on the Chase, which was soon fix
ed but it was decided to come back
to Seward again for additional
h^lp.
It was then learned that the El
dorado had just come in and she
was summoned for aid and between
them the Omaney was brought in
just about daybreak and was towed
to the San Juan dock, where she
will doubtless be held for more than
:a week until necessary machinery
parts can reach here on the boat
j coming up a week from tomorrow.
“In the meantime I’m missing
I some of the best halibut fishing
[that I have seen for years,” said
Capt. Oswald Olson of the Omaney,
ruefully. “We were about 60 miles
i off Cape Resurrection when the
break in the oil feed occurred, a
J piece of metal dropping into the
l machinery and cracking things up
: beyond repair at sea. We were on
jwhat are known as the Cape Clear
! grounds and with some 20.000
pounds of halibut aboard we had all
our gear out. We rigged up a sail
and sent our dories out and brought
in the gear and about 6.000 pounds
more of fish. We could have got
ten our lull cargo in another day or
two. Then we tried to make Point
Clear but could not sail just where
we wanted to go and finally tried
for Resurrection Bay. When we
got inside the Cape the wind died
and we made anchor in the best
shelter we could reach, but it was
not very good and mighty lucky
for us that the weather stayed
calm until we could be towed in.”
In the meantime Charles Lechncr
has been called into consultation
to learn if ther£ isyany possibility
of repairing part's lay welding that
will permit the boat to reach Ket
chikan where she can sidetrack the
parts ordered from Seattle. Tne
halibut aboard the boat will be box
ed and shipped out, probably to
Seattle.
Decayed sluice boxes and other '<
indications of a mine operated j
more than 50 years ago were found
recently on the Hootalinqua river.
A large number of examinations
arise upon prospecting ventures
or partially developed mines where j
the value is almost wholly pros
pective. Such business is necessar- j
ily highly speculative but not
unjustifiable.—Herbert C. Hoover.
BRAINS ARE NEEDED
Men have learned that money
must be backed up by keen judg
ment ar.d a thorough knowledge
of the task at hand, to make an
operation successful. —H. Claws.
WOOD DRIVE STARTED

ois wood camp, which will consist

obom is holding the first run at
Bear Creek, but within the next
