Among the southbound passen
gers aboard the SS Yukon was Ben
Stewart, chief of the Bureau of
Mines for Alaska, who has been
on an extended inspection of the
Interior. Mr. Stewart reports that
quartz mining is receiving stimilus,
especially around Fairbanks, and
where skilled operations are pro
gressing are proving successful.
Reports from the Eva Creek
Mines, near Ferry, indicate that
the present management is grad
ually bringing the property to the
front and solving the problems
which at first beset it. About five
tons of concentrates are being
hauled to the railroad daily and
steps are being taken to increase
this output.
One of the new geological dis
coveries of the Ferry district is an
intrusion of rhyolite. This is the
formation predominating at Gold
fields, Nev., and other big gold
camps.

Adams 84
(Continued from Pa ire Ooal
waxed enthusiastically over the lo
cation of the property, from a
scenic standpoint, describing it—
the Chickaloon area—as being one
of the most beautiful spots he has
ever seen. “The property is located
between King and Castle moun
tains; on the edge of a magnifi
cent little lake. Another lake fairly
abounds in Dolly Varden and Rain
bow trout and game is plentiful,
such as caribou, mountain sheep,
bears and a few moose.”
Captain Peterson is a graduate
of a Swedish technical college. Fol
lowing graduation he traveled ex
tensively, largely throughout Eur
ope from the White to the Black
Sea and all thru the Mediterranean.
He then came to America, a pas
senger on the sailing vessel Arab
Steed, landing at Philadelphia;
thence to New York where he spent
some time in the service of the
French government in connection
with the present Panama Canal, as
a civil engineer. Crossing the Isth
mus he landed at San Francisco
where he since has made his home.
For more than 30 years Captain
Peterson was associated with a
large iron works company at San
Francisco, in the capacity of esti
mator, calculating costs of con
struction of ships and other work.
Unknown to but few today, the
present work in Alaska is not his
first activity in the Northland, for
in 1898 he sailed the stern wheeler,
Florence to St. Michael from San
Francisco. With a false keel and!
erecting two masts on the steamer i
which had but 12 inches of free- I
board, the skipper—a hard-boiled
one, too—struck out 1,000 miles to
ward the Orient, and after cruising
4.600 miles in 60 days, made St.
Michael on June 19, 1898. There he
converted the ship into a stern
wheeler and shoved off up the Yu
kon to the mouth of the Kuyokuk
where he was stuck for six months.
He then returned to St. Michael,
sold the vessel to the Alaska Com
mercial Company, and went over
to Nome where he picked up some
money. But. being a young man, he
became homesick so decided to re
turn home.
This bit of history is presented
to enlighten Alaskans that besides
being a regular fellow, and the
man who will , one day electrify
the world by bringing in another
oil well in Alaska, Captain Peter
son is a dyed-in-the-wool Sour
dough.
Another plane Is now numbered
in the Anchorage fleet.' A plane
for W. E. Dunkle of the Willow
Creek Mines, was flown to the
Inlet city Sunday from Cordova by
Pilot Wilbur Irving. The plane is
equipped with pontoons. Mr. Dun
kle recently completed flying in
struction.
SS WATSON TONNAGE
The SS Admiral Watson, of the
Facific Steamship Company, has

but a large cargo for Westward del
ivery. The liner will load five cars
of Matanuska coal on the west- j
bound trip.

BETTER TIMES ARE COMING
^Don’t be Discouraged!
Don’t lose the will to win .... don’t join the pessimists who
see naught but disaster ahead—
During a previous depression, the government had to is
sue paper “Clearing House Certificates” as a substitute for
money. Conditions were just as bad, only we have forgotten.
Prosperity has always followed bad times—this is one of the
laws of business cycles.
Now is the time to substitute the word “Reconstruction” for
“depression.”
Don’t be discouraged. Lend a hand to reestablish confidence.
America will see this through and emerge victorious.
Better times are coming!
