ALASKA MINING REVIEW.


Many improvements and Extensions
Made-Electric Light ut silver Bow.
The Alaska Mining Record of September
IL, 1884, contains a good summary of
mining news. The backward spring and
ceaseless downpour of rain this summer
has delayed the prospector in his search
for new discoveries and has greatly re-
tarded mining operations generally. Pros
pectors have been unable to get out aud
consequently this season has nearly rolled
away without any important discoveries
having been made. But number of inn
provements have been made. notably
among which are the completion and
steady operation of the Mexican sixty
stamp mill; new and extensive improve
ments at the Tread well mill and mine; the
completion and operation of the Berner's
Bay Mining and Milling Company's stamp
mill and tramway; the steady operation of
the Silver Bow Basin Mining Company's
hydraulic plant in Silver Bow basin;
the completion of this company's
stamp mill and the tramway to the Ground
Hog mine; improvements and steady OPP
Grafton of the mill at Archie Campbell's
mine; the lease of the Bennett mine and
its operation; the operation of the Takon
Consolidated mill; the lease and operation
of the Silver Queen mine and mill at Sheep
creek, and the sale and operation of the
Ba Eagle mine at Sum Dunn.
Over twenty electric lights have been
placed along the tramway leading from
the Ground Hog mine in Silver Bow basin,
greatly facilitating its operation. The
tramway is now complete and has a
capacity of 200 tons every twenty-four
hours. The mill will be started up some
time during the week.
Superintendent +. c. Hammond, of the
Silver Queen mine. at Sheep creek, has
increased his force of men by ten and
thinks he will be able to operate the mill
for two months more at least.

STREET LIGHTS IN FREMONT.
The Action of Council Condemned by
the Citizens at a Meeting.

Inc Action OF &Ouucu oy
the Citizens at n Meeting.
At q meeting of the Republicans OF the
Ninth ward at Goddard's hall the subject
OF lights was brought up and Alderman
Loyejoy wished Tor an expression from his
constituents in regard TO the matter.
Among Others Mr.. William Ashworth
spoke. His remarks we're fully Endorsed
by all present and were TO the effect that
the contemplated action of the city coun-
Gil in taking away the lights in Fremont
and Edgewater vas based on false idea
of economy. Now that the long winter
nights were coming ON the lights were
needed more than ever. The safety Of
men. women and children would be en-
dangered after dark One speaker said:
Even if We had a couple Of policemen
added 10 the force they could not cover
the ground IN q short time, for the dis
tanees are much longer when one has the
uugraded streets 10 contend with, and II
the policeman had his regular beat the
criminal under cover of darkness could
very easily hide or escape. WIZ our taxes

oOavenlsacss, are taken away 1t Is i'm
possible Tor as - do without them and If
they are removed il will be nothing short
