OLDTIME DRILLER SAYS THAT
RESULTS THUS FAR ARE
SATISFACTORY
Heading a partv of mining men
from the Interior, Charles Holke,
who for a number of years has been
identified with the Fairbanks Ex
ploration Co., in its drilling opera
tions as the company searched for
the pay, went thru Seward Satur
day night, embarking for Seattle
where they will spend the winter.
Mr. Holke is perhaps as well in
formed on the paystreaks in the
many creeks off the Ester Dome as
any man in that district, since it
was largely upon his findings that
the company’s plan of operations
was built.
“There will be at least two more
dredges built next season and pro
bably four although I am not
speaking officially or authoritative
ly. However, I know that the re
cults of this season’s actual dredg
ing have been eminently satisfac
tory and along the results expected
to be achieved from our mapping of
the pay thru the drill holes. The
original program will be adhered to.
The fact that the company is not
building dredges in the winter time
as they have done heretofore, is no
sign as is commonly rumored that
they are not going to build more.
These uninformed ‘knockers’ are
j doing a great deal of harm to the
Fairbanks district as a whole, when
as a matter of fact the F. E. Co.,
program up to date has been car
ried out as planned and the results
jhave been even better than were
I calculated.”
Mr. Holke said that drilling is go
ing forward on Engineer Creek
under the direction of an English
syndicate. The Nome Creek dredge
under the direction of Sam God
frey, has had a very good season.
Holke drills for them and is of the
opinion they have a very good pay
streak with several years work
ahead. The Fish Creek dredges
have been working all season with
good returns as well as the Ameri
can Creek dredges. The latter will
install a new steam-thawing sys
tem next spring.
Among others in the party were
Lome McIntosh, who has been in
and out of Fairbanks for a number
of years. He is mining in the Liv
engood district where he is drifting
and open-cutting.
C. F. McPherson who has been in
Alaska for 17 years and who has re
cently been with the F. E. Co., says
the cleanups from the F. E. Co.’s
dredges, in this first season’s work
are very satisfactory. “I think Al
aska is coming back strong at the
depository of millions in gold that
has never yet been thoroughly lo
cated,” he said. Fred Crane, who
has mining connections in Coeur de
A’Leane, showed an interest in the
report on Nuka Bay while he was in
Seward Saturday evening, and re
•solved to bring the new camp to
the attention of his people on the
Outside.

“Now that the vacation season is
over I think of the wonderful trip
we had in Alaska. Besides Mr. Case
was here to see me today and we
talked of the trip and of the fine
people we met which included
yourself. I hope to take the trip
to Alaska again sometime in the
not too far off future as I enjoyed
it so much.” J. L. Thomas, Chicago.
