Gold or silver discovered in Alaska must
not be OF unusual richness to pay to work
On the contrary, mines here can be protlt-
ably worked that in California, Nevada
and British Columbia would not be
touched. The placer mines at Shuck,
which last season paid as low as SO per
day were equal to mines in Cassar that paid
SO per day. And why? Because of the
differences in the cost OF living The
mines at Shuck are at present being
worked ana SO l"nS is lhey continue 10

her resources and natural wealth worthy
