HOW TO HEAT THE JINX
Oscar Plowman tilts a poke containing $2,800 which
was the result of the labors of three men for three weeks
on Mills creek,-Moose Pass district. This is the equivalent
of $933.34 per man or $311.11 per week, each.
How many men, laboring at day’s wages and inter
mittent employment, can show as good a result in actual
cash at the end of the summer season?
And how many men would not wish to duplicate Mr.
Plowman’s success? In his case he might have been dupli
cating somebody’s else success, but he did it by the simple
process of going out and making gravel fly.
The peak of prosperity for Seward and other cities
and towns of Alaska will arrive when there are many Mr.
Plowmans, and men like John A. Nelson of Seward who
recently interested Spokane and Montana people in Nuka
Bay. Mr. Plowman added thousands of new wealth to the
sum total of the nation. Mr. Nelson and his associates
will do likewise before Christmas. These thousands of
virgin wealth will be capable of liquidating millions in ob
ligations thru the process of passing from hand to hand.
This is what newly created wealth and the circula
tion of money means. The man who hoards capital for
which he has no immediate use stands in his own light.
It is these working dollars which keep prosperity at its
peak.

further born out by the fact that
all gold found on the original bed
rock is secured; that in the hard
pas in fine, and that mixed in the
boulders flattened by mulling in
the movement of the boulders. The
gold found above the morrainal
debris is rough, which would indi
cate not having traveled far. The
absence of any evidence of vein
structure anywhere in the overly
ing hills and the predominance of
brecciated boulders of immense di
mensions at various points, which
is nc conformable with the sur
rounding country rock indicates
“foreign wash.”
Judged by the course of the creek
and the distance to possible vein
structure every evidence points to
the origin of the gold in the higher
reaches of the Kenai range. This
should be a guide to prospectors
in searching the northern slope of
the “nknown Region” or main ridge
of the Kenai range.
There is evidence that enrich
ment has come from the north
of the Kenai river, through scour
ing and erosion of the hills of the
Moose Pass country, scouring and
erosion of the hills having resulted
in cutting drainages, especially in
the Juneau creek flats and in the
Seven Lakes trough, which de
bouches on Kenai river opposite
Seattle Purity Ice Cream; most
delicious. ALASKA SHOP.

the confluence of Surprise creek
with the Kenai river, six miles east
of Skilak lake.
Legends and actual tests at many
points show that it is possible to
secure colors and better at almost
any point along the Kenia river,
where for many years sniping has
been indulged in a desultory man
ner, but where there is little evi
dence of effort at actual mining.
The fact that many large quartz
ledges have been reported by ex
plorers and hunters, all of which
lie along the mountain range j
warrants the prospector searching;
the north slope for both placer and j
lodes. Every evidence points to the !
lack of pronounced glacial erosion
of this range, which permits the
assumption that the big fissures
from which radiations have pro
to penetrate from the Nuka Bay
lie along the summit of the range,
only awaiting adventurous capital
to penetrat efrom the Nuka Bay
side or from the northern slope.
