The Cache Creek Gold may prove to be
one of the Best and biggest Quartz
MINES IN ALASKA.
The property consists of nine quartz claims of 20 acres
each, or 180 acres, located at the head of Nugget Creek, Cache
Creek country, Susitna Mining District, Alaska.
The company owns over one mile of the Mother Lode ledge,
in the camp. This ledge shows in width from 80 to 100 feet
and can be easily traced for seven miles, and assays in gold
from a few dollars up, and into the thousands to the ton. Nug
gets are found in the quartz which are worth from 2f> cents up
to as high as $f>.00. The company also owns a mile in length
of another parallel ledge, one-half mile from the Mother Lode
that shows an average width of 80 feet. The rock on this ledge
pans from 20 cents and up, as high as $1.00 or more to the pan.
I Some of the rich ore can be seen in the display window of the
Chamber of Commerce, Anchorage, Alaska.
As soon as the snow is gone, the ground will be thoroughly
prospected by practical raining men to ascertain the amount
of ore tonnage available for a milling plant; also the actual
value of the ore per ton, and the character of the ore treatment
required.
For a short time yon may purchase Treasury Shares in the
Cache Creek Cold Mines Company at the ground floor price of
10 cents per share, 10 per cent discount for cash.
You may buy the shares on the installment plan, by paying
10 per cent down and 10 per cent monthly, for nine months.

CRAFT SEEM
TO BE BEST
l
LONDON, April 21.—The superi
ority of the English aircraft, which
was frequently asserted in official
statements from the entente side last
year, is jeopardized, according to late
dispatches from war correspondents at
| the front. This is due to the appear- j
j ance of several new types of German ,
I machines, chiefly modeled, it is said,
Ion French and British designs and
i known as the Albatross, Halberstadt,
j Ago, Roland and the new Fokker.
The majority of them have fixed ■
engines, giving about 160 to 200 horse
power. A few retain the rotary en
gines with which the Germans achiev
ed success in the Fokker two years
• ago, but these rotary engines are j
! seldom of more than 130 horse power.
The new German machines have a
I speed of about 120 miles an hour, but
: their chief feature is their ability for
climbing. Ordinarily they frequent
the 14,000 foot levels, and they have
been observed on picket duty as high 1
las 20,000 feet. The latest German or
der for airplane engines is said to
I have specifications designed to give
j their machines a radius of action up
j to at least 30,000 feet.
Meanwhile the British air service is
' putting forth strenuous exertions to
i keep ahead of its rival. Only in part
I is this a question of planes and en
i gines. It also involves the problems
j of more skilful pilots, and in this di
| rection of training the British serv
ice has expanded extraordinarily.
After a class of military aviators'
has passed through their course of
training on the slower type of school
machines, those who show special apt
itude are passed on to the “scout.
schools,” where they are given a spe
cial cource in what is commonly called
; “acrobatics,” which involves the use
of the highest speed machines and
I handling them acrobatically in the air, j
, as is necessary in air fighting. The
I instructors carry on sham fights in !
the air with their pupils, armed with
: cameras instead of guns.
Then there are the post-graduate
aerial gunnery schools. The most
expert pilot in the world is useless as
!a lighting man if he does not thor
j oughly understand his machine gun,
for a perfect flyer with a jammed gun
is of little use against a merely mod
erate pilot who is a crack shot and a
real gun master. A combination of
the two i.- the real desideratum, as
for example, in the case of a young ■.
pilot recently mentioned in dispatches,
whose engine stopped dead at a height
of 15,000 feet when he was attacked
by two German aeroplanes. Despite
his loss of motive power, forcing him
j to descend constantly, he shot down
one enemy machine, drove the other
■ away, and glided into his own lines I
i undamaged.
The work of the aviator has become
highly specialized in the course of the
last 12 months. At the British avia-,
tion camps along the front in France !
there are separate squadrons of ma- j
chines for reeonnoissance, infantry i
contact, photography, artillery spot- :
ting, and bomb dropping, and in al- [
most every instance, squads of these i
machines may only accomplish their i
duties successfully when they are j
protected from enemy attack by ma
chines of a type comparable to the
torpedo boat destroyers of a naval
fleet.
For these ‘‘destroyer machines,”)
high speed, high climbing ability and
high fighting and maneuvering are
essential. Some of the newer British
machines of this type are said to
show a speed of over 150 miles an j
hour.

|B. F. MILLARD EXPRESSES
VIEWS ON AKBITK \TION
(Valdez Miner)
II. F. Millard, the well-known Alas
kan mine operator, in a rerent letter
to the Mining congress, says:
“I most heartily agree with your
taking up the matter in congress and
in every state in the union in the mat
ter covering strikes and lockouts. I
have always contended that if all par
ties interested in the labor question
exhibited a desire to be fair that all
difficulties could be adjusted ami set
tled by arbitration.
“I have empolyed labor for 20 years,
sometimes having as high as r>00 men
under me. I never have had a strike
or a lockout—not only that, I have
been on both sides of the question—
for many years I labored for others;
in those days, however, a strike was
never thought of, the employer hired
and discharged men to suit his own
1 convenience and always paid just as
little wages as possible. After be
coming foreman for a large lumber
j company I have hired for them hun
1 dreds of men at from $14 to $20 per
month and board and worked them
from 12 to 12 hours a day.
“Those days have passed and labor
' and capital are getting closer togeth
er. Brute force is no longer the slo
gan. Foremen are not hired because
they are pugilists. Labor is coming
to its own. Capitalists have received
a great jolt, and have come to the
conclusion that it is better to feed
. and house men well and comfortably
and treat them as human beings. The
only question is the wage. Capital and
labor differ upon this question and al
' ways will. We will always have big
corporations and poverty, and right
at this point is where arbitration will
i come in. All fair-minded men should
be willing to leave their affairs, or
■ rather disputes, to a competent body
of disinterested men. and should be
willing to abide by their decision.
“The disputants are not the only
i ones interested or injured by strikes
! and lockouts, but it carries to those di
rectly interested in the disputes, and'
; some means ought to be provided
! whereby both parties to a dispute
! should be held up until their griev
ances could be passed upon by an in
I telligent body of disinterested citizens
and sooner or later it must come to
that. Do all you can to assist in pass
ing an arbitration law that would have
| a tendency to give full justice to both
capital and labor anil the great body
of onlookers. You can draw on me
for any assistance that it is in my
power to give.”
BANK TO BE STARTED
AT RUBY, MINING CAMP
(Fairbanks Citizen*
After several years’ existence with
out such an institution, Ruby is to
have a bank. Such the statement
made since the arr.va: in Fairbanks
yesterday of A. J. (Bert) Day from
the outside, where he is said to have
organized a corporation having for its
purpose of organization the establish
ment of a banking institution at the
lower river camp.
Mr. Day was formerly agent of the
Northern Commercial company at
Ruby, hut resigned the position about
a year ago to engage in business for
himself. Last fall he went outside
from Ruby, and the purpose of his
visit there is made evident by the
statement that he is to establish a
banking institution at the flourishing
lower river mining camp.
Although Ruby has always been
one of the producing camps of the
interior, it has never had a bank. Ail
of the banking men have passed it
up, for what reason is unknown. The
lack of such an institution there has
always been a great source of worry
and trouble to Ruby merchants and
mining men. Merchants particularly
have been handicapped for the reason
that when they wanted to ship goods
with bills of lading attached it has
been necessary for them to do busi
ness through the banks of Fairbanks
as the nearest bank center. Mining
operators, too, will be benefited to a
considerable extent, as they may now
dispose of their gold dust at home
instead of having to ship it either to
the outside or to Fairbanks to ex
change it for money.
