WHERE TO SEARCH FOR GOLD
Combinations of slates, graywacke, diorite, granite,
rhyolite, phonolite, porphyry and schist, offer the best
fields for gold deposits. These all belong to what is
known as the secondary series, or matamorphic rocks
superimposed upon plutonic rocks, such as form the ori
ginal earth’s crust and interior. These rocks are laid down
either by volcanic flows spreading over the plutonic rocks
or by sediments, which coming into contact with heat,
have been fused into rocks. Subsequent earth movements
create great fissures or cracks in this horizontal strata.
These were filled by upflows of plutonic rocks, in some
cases forcing dikes and in cithers forming veins, the lat-I
ter of which contain quartz and gold. A true fissure is!
where these veins or ledges cut thru a series of layers of
secondary rocks. The next best fissure is one where it
occurs between slate and graywacke, diorite and schist,
diorite and slate, etc.
There are contact veins. Any vein or stringer of
quartz which does not carry a gouge,, or slickensides be
tween the quartz and the original walls, or where the
gangs do not occur between the ledge matter filling the
vein and the accompanying rocks, do not offer the chance
of a mine. Stringers showing gold should be stripped
and traveled to ascertain if they lead to a fissure. If so
it is worthy of consideration, otherwise all that may be
hoped for is what can be dug from the stringer, which is
usually little.
The first evidence of mineralization is quartz, the
second, iron pyrite, which becoming weathered, releases
the gold not visible to. the eye. Try roasting pyrit, grind
ing fine and panning.
The Republican National platform says: “We favor
the policy of giving to the people of Alaska the widest
possible Territorial self-government, and the selection as
far as possible, of bonafide residents for positions in that
Territory and the placing-of its citizens on an equality
with those of the several States”. In view of that fact
why have they waited 10 years to spring this old gag, and
not given some evidence of its sincerity?
California is giving away its surplus crop of fruits
and State officials are assisting in its direction to the
needy. Who has heard of the eastern manufacturers
and the middlemen holding wheat, cutting the price and
making an effort to relieve distress.

Seward, Alaska
Upper Russian Lake, at the head
waters of Resurrection River, was
the goal Saturday afternoon of
about 10 local sportsmen, who wish
ed to spend some time there.- The
McGee Airways seaplane, piloted by
E. Call, was chartered to transport
the party from Seward to the
shores of Russian Lake and the
plane began its flights between
here and that area Saturday after
noon. Three flights were necessary.
The party stopped at the Gerhard
Johnson cabin on Russian Lake.
Mr. Johnson was a member of the
party. Previous reports from the
lake stated that trout were there
in great numbers so it is expected
that good fishing was enjoyed by
everyone.
The party remained at the lake
until late Sunday when the plane
brought them back.
Passengers Saturday from An
chorage on the McGee Airways
plane piloted by Oscar Winchell
were Mrs. Wm. Struve and C. E.
Laurence. Pilot Winchell left Sew
ard again Sunday evening, expect
ing to return within three or four
days.
R. D. Baker, official of the
Standard Oil Co., was a returning
passenger on the SS. Admiral Evans
from a visit to the Kodiak Standard
Oil station. Mr. Baker recently j
completed a visit to stations in the |
Interior and will remain in Seward
for several days.

BIG ENGINE ENROUTE
A new large locomotive for the j
Alaska Railroad will arrive in Sew- J
ard within the next several days j
from Seattle. It is thought that this j
monster engine is on the SS Denali,:
now enroute here. An idea of the
tremendous size can be gained J
when it is learned that the shop j
forces at Anchorage have been
busy for some time in buliding or
rather enlarging the turntable at
the roundhouse and enlarging the
engine’s stall.

“SHANGHAIED LOVE”
A great story of the old days of sailing
ships in the early “Eighties”. An extra
good yarn of the ships that used to get
shanghaied crews from old ‘Barbary Coast'
in San Francisco.
A thrilling, sensational drama that will make you for
get where you are. A story of a girl who is to inherit a
fortune when 18 years old—A brutal captain who
schemes to marry her to one of his men—A young
sailor lover in the crew—Her real father signs on—
The spy—The terrible mutiny—It is something you
must see. And as a special added attraction there
is a three-reel feature showing the South Polar re
gions and the life there, an Educational picture with
descriptive talk and music made by tthe National
Museum. Also an interesting News
