SPEAKERSHIP MAY
RESULT IN A CONTEST
WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.—Champ
Clark discussing the speakership of
the house of representatives today
said that the only thing that could be
done was to watch the official count
closely in the districts that are doubt
ful. This indicates that no party now
has a majority in the next house.
Speaker Clark observed that three
times before in the history of the
American government there had been
prolonged contests over the speaker
ship; each time they lasted more than
three months.
The last time in which no party had
a clear majority in congress was in
December, 1855, which congress was
elected in 1854. The speakership con
test lasted from Dec. 3, 1855 to Feb
2, 1856, when Nathaniel P. Banks, of
Boston was elected by a coalition of
republicans and “know nothings,” on
the 133rd ballot.
BOWLING TOURNAMENT
STARTS TUESDAY NEXT
_
The annual bowling tournament for
the Robarts silver trophy starts next
Tuesday night with six teams in the
field. The Municipal team won the
cup last year and has again entered
to defend the title. The Times team
I has also entA'ed the running and
promises to be a contender—for last
place. In this connection might say
that The Times, after such an easy
victory over the Lumbermen, is anxi
ous and willing to take on the Law
yers’ team, which is making such
brags about proficiency. Other teams
to enter the tournament are the 14th
infantry, Commission, Has Beens, and
probably a team from the force of
Brown & Hawkjns.

FORTUNES TO BE MADE IN '
THE WILLOW CREEK
Si
MINING CAMP
$100 Invested Now Should Make Over $1,000 I
£
is*******!*
The Mohawk Mining company, an Alaska Corporation, composed
of Anchorage Business Men, is offering for sale, shares of Treasury
Stock, proceeds of sales to be used for development work, and for the
installation of a 30-ton daily capacity Amalgamation mill.
Property.
The Mohawk Mining Company owns four lode mining claims,
the Wonder No. 1 and No. 2, the Pearl No. 1 and No. 2, a total of
eighty acres of rich mineral land, in the heart of the Willow Creek
mining district, Alaska.
The Wonder Vein.
The Wonder Vein runs the entire length of the two claims, for
a distance of 3,000 feet. 'On Wonder Claim No. 2, the quartz crop
pings shows from four to six feet in width. About two months ago
miners were put to work to drive a 4 x 6V2 foot tunnel. The tunnel
was started on the vein about 150 feet below the heavy outcrop of
quartz; the last report we had from the mine was that the tunnel
had been driven in 0(re .j*ll th£ w%jr, .fpr 8Q feeft and $hat the vein was
over three feet wide, showing free gold, over $30.00 per
ton. The work in the tunnel will continue uninterruptedly, until at
least 300 feet have been completed, or possibly 500 feet. W'e have
supplies in camp to last almost that long. The ore body at the breast
of the tunnel has attained a depth of 80 feet. The mountain is very
steep and for every foot we drive in on the vein, we gain one foot in
dePth- »»
^Ore In Sight.
About 1,000 tons of ore are already in sight, that we believe
will plate from $30.00 to $50.00 per ton. When this tunnel work has
been completed, we will then be in a position to determine the actual
amount of ore tonnage in sight, and the value of gold, per ton;
but it is safe to figure right now’, that the ore, which will be blocked
out, by the middle of March, will exceed 16,000 tons. This figure is
based on only three feet of ore in width, 300 feet in length, 300 feet
vertical depth, throwing in for good measure, the 40 degree pitch
of the vein, which amounts to over 100 feet of ore. This is a very
conservative estimate of the tonnage, considering that the quartz
croppings on the surface ahead of us, show from four to six feet in
width.
Milling.
Milling at the rate of 30 tons daily, of $30.00 ore will give us
$900.00 worth of bullion, every 24 hours, or $27,000.00 per month.
This estimate is not unreasonable, when it is a proven fact, that
Martin took out over $26,000.00 in 13 days, with his mill, having a
capacity of about 40 per tons per day, through a 40 mesh screen,
and the Mabel Mine produced over $13,000.00 in 17 days, with a No.
1 Denver Quartz Mill, having a capacity of about 15 tons per day.
By March 15th we should have in sight not less than 16,000 tons of
ore, figuring the values at. only $30.00- per ton, the mine will have
an ore valuation of $480,000.00. The possibilities of the Mohawk
Mine are wonderful. I have mined in Idaho, and Montana, have in
stalled several amalgamation and concentrating mills, operated a 90
stamp mill in Montana, worked for Marcus Daily, in the early ’90s
mined in the Anaconda Mine, in Butte City, have examined and made
reports on many mines, in the states, and have seen many so-called
“free gold” mining camps, but I have failed to find one that could
compare with Willow Creek, in High Grade Free Milling Gold Ores.
Ten Dollars a ton free gold ore is considered a fortune in the
mines in the states.
Spent 21 Days in Willow Creek.
I spent 21 days, in September, in the Willow Creek Mining Dis
trict, examining the formation, and the vein system. I also visited
several of the mines, operating in the district, and was highly pleased
with the showing. 1 was amazed to find so many veins, cropping on
the surface, and the quartz shot full of free gold.
Most of the ground around the operating mines was staked, so
I devoted my time to prospect other people’s claims, with a view of
probably buying the property later. The Mining Properties which
looked the best to me were the Wonder Claims, belonging to the
Mohawk Mining Co., and I finally succeeded in acquiring a good-siz«d
stock interest in same, with the promise that I would' help the
company raise finances for a mill. This I gladly consented to do,
as the property has good merit of becoming a heavy gold producer in
the near future.
The capital stock of the Mohawk Mining Company is 1,000,000
shares, par value $1.00 per share, and non-assessable. 500,000 shares
has been placed in the treasury. Parts of shares we are now selling
for development work.

Authorized to Sell Mohawk Shares.
The Directors of the Mohawk Mining Company have authorized
me, the undersigned, George Anderson, to place, at once, the Mohawk
Shares on the market, and I am now offering to the Public, the first
chance to share in the profit of this great mine, by buying some of
the Mohawk shares, at 5 cents per share; and he, who has the fore
sight to buy a few thousand shares of the Mohawk Stock, while the
stock can be had for a few cents a share, will sell for Dollars, and
every person who feels that he or she is entitled to become rich is
justified in taking some moderate amount of money, which he can
safely risk, and venturing it In the stock of a conservative mining
enterprise, which has real merit, ami a great future possibilities, for
large dividends.
Now is the time to get some of this stock. Don’t delay, but
come and see me, at my office in the Campbell building, at 4th and
F street, Office Hours from 2 p. m. to 10 p. m., or if you can not
