HARRY KAWABE Prop.
Alaska Knockers
Should Get Gate
Says Railroader
“All this bunk about dredges
closing down and business slowing
up at Fairbanks is all ‘hooey’, said
Karl K. Katz, traveling passenger
agent of the Northern Pacific who
left here Saturday night on the
Alaska after one of his regular trips
to the Interior. “Where do they get
that stuff,’’ he declared haughtily.
“Can’t I see and don’t I know when
people are happy? I didn’t find
any one downhearted at Fairbanks.
These old dredges are just natur
ally changing the map of the co
j untry and it’s a cinch they are
I getting the gold but for love nor
I money can you find out what their
| cleanups are.
“ Talk about ‘knockers’, Good
! Lord,” and he held up his hands
in despair. “If Alaska had to de
i pend upon the flood tide of its own
j boosters it would be floating back
jwards. You hear so many croak
I ers that you get a sort of a hoarse
! feeling in your throat yourself.
Ever since I first came to Alaska
I’ve wanted to to be classed as an
Alaskan as a sort of distinction,
but I sure dont want to be classed
with that kind of an Alaskan.”
Things are looking good all
j along the line, Mr. Katz said be
fore he stepped aboard the S. S.
Alaska Saturday night, and he met
so many people with real money
! that he expects quite a heavy traf
fic on his “North Coast Limited”
when these Northerners go out to
enjoy themselves.

OF
The frequency of cases of poor
recovery of fine gold by the amal
gamation process has led the U. S.
Bureau of Mines to publsh an in
formation circular on the subject.
Experience has shown that in
many cases error has been made
because the true gold content of a
particular sample or deposit was
not known, states Edmund S. Leav
er in information circular 6081.
Under expert guidance no in
dustry offers a richer reward than
does mining.
