1t is the opinion of many mining
men that the district in which the
big copper deposits have been fopnd
back from the Grand Canyons rim
has never received the attention from
prospecors it should haye. The in
dications are strongly in favor of the
opinion advanced by them that the
borders of the district are yet an
known. While the surface indications
may not be so strong there is reason
to belieye that the distric extends
back from the canyon twenty Ave
miles. The greatest distance from
the rim where development work has
been done is about fifteen miles. There
are no evidences that the ground south
of this point has been prospected at
all. Flagstaff Sun-Democrat.

The terrors Of the overland journey
to Alaska will soon be overcome by
American and British enterprise. Two
railroads, have already been projected,
construction work to be begun early
in the spring, one to run from the
bead of navigation on the Tadu river
to Lake Teslin, and the other from
skasuay Bay to the headwaters of
the Yukon. Sill another scheme.
capable of rapid acco onplishment, is
the construction of cable road from
Dyea to Lake Lindeman. Next we
will hear that son e enterprising Yam
kee is to establish summer resort on

Prof. Emmons, of New York City
has better thing than the Klondike.
He takes Mexican silver dollars, COM
presses them in a vacuum, causes a
rearrangement of the molecules, thus
converting the mass into argentau-
rum, which the United States mint
buys for gold, the profit being $4 per
ounce. Il seems that both metals
were originally alike and that the
difference between them was due to
to the fact that the white metal had
gone through less vibrations than the
yellow. That is, the particles COM
posing silver had not, at certain
stage, received as much electric agi-
tation as had the yellow particles.
This beats the plan of getting gold
from sea water proposed by Professor
Pearce, and is even easier than pry-
ing out $4,000 nuggets in Trinity or
Klondyke Eek.

THE YUKON BASIN.

AS far as apy thorough prospecting
is concerned, says the Journal Miner
the basin of the Yukon has hardly
been entered. The main river winds
through distance of 5000 milea, and
its tributaries vary in length from &c
to- 800 miles. That there are posi-
bili,ies of discoveries of mu :h more
wealth cannot he doubted. but to the
prospector it is most inhospitable
region, not only on account OF the
dangers aud hardships. but Lecause
the ground is covered with Arctic
moss and frozen, making the d'scov-
cry of quartz extremely difficult.
No additional arrivals having been
reported from the Yukon country,
there is no reliable data on which to
build Notwithstanding some enter
prising jou, nails continue to give spec
ials from the Klonkyke, quite over
ooking the fact that the last antbep-
ltic dispatches were dated early IN
June. The blockade at Dyea and
White p asses is even worse than was
predicted. Hundreds of tons freight
are piled at these points awaiting
transportion.
OF the extreme richness OF the
Klondyke placers there would seem
no reasonable doubt, but the public
does not appear to recognize the vast
ness of the territory that is belieyed
to carry the gold. DR.. Dawson esti-
mates the auriferous country at 5O0.-
900 SOU ,re miles. 1t will take years
to explore and there is not the slight
est need for people to rush in at the
beginning of an Arctic winter, they
will have far better chance in the
spring. All the gold bearing claims
within 125 miles Of Dawson City have
of course, been staked off long ago,
but on a map drawn to scale this ter
ritory would b. but speck upon the
mighty wastes of Alaska and The Yn-
kon.
The Canadian mining laws cannot
be said to err on the side of ljberality,
though it must he understood that
they press just as hard upon the
British subject as upon the American
citizen.

The refusal of the board of contro

Improvement com maany until the latter
shall have executed to the territory
an indemnifying bond. guaranteeing
the completion of the proposed rriga :
tion works, should meet with hearty

ing confidence in Governor McCord's
administration. There can be no
valid objection to leasing the labor of
the prisoners, but as under the terms
of the contract their work is to he
paid for in water shares issued to the
territory, it is certainly reasonable
requirement that the works be com
pleted and put in operation to insure
an intrinsic aad convertible value to
