tance to the Interior was closed on
October 1, announces the Fair
banks News Miner, when Casper

below, making a total of about j
three jniles, are included in the ‘
sale.

Forced to close down the Amer
ican Creek dredge three weeks-ear
ly because of lack of fuel oil, oper

a whole the season’s work -was
satisfactory.
Total Juneau tax payments for
the current year up to the close of
business last week amounted to
$50,010.13.
