We are Going to KlOldykG
. Prepared to Get Gold,
Do You Want to Go ?

All riv RS and creeks having their source
i'll the Rocky Mountains are gold bearing; the
gold being deposited int e beds. bars and along
| the banks.
| II is a well known fact that all the gold about
| tS3, 00O, OOOD which has been secured in the
kondyke region, has been dug from the old
beds of the Creeks, and washed by hand. The
| largest nuggests and best gold being under
water in the beds and bars of the river is only
accessible to those having suitable machinery
The Alaska Mining, Dredging and Steamboat
Company is fitting up an expedition to get this
gold and will send lumber, machinery, prov
isions, etc, to st. Michaels, where they will
build their boat and be ready to start up the
River in the pr.ng, as soon as the ice breaks
up.
he boat will contain the entire plant and
will be of such light draft as to insure naviga-
ton to the very head OF the shallow creeks and
will be in charge of our expert mining and
mechanical Engineers who have invented and
arranged this special plant, complete in every
detail, and which will enable them to handle
"a large amount of auriferous sand and gravel,
ut Il very small cost The boat will have
crew of ten men selected from he stockholders
who may wish to go. At a meeting of the
stockholders, the names of all such will be
placed in bag shaken up, and ten drawn out !;
these will form the crew. The expedition will
be fully equipped for both placer and quartz
mining, to build dams for turning the river
from its bed, to buy up and stake claims, to
carry passengers and freight and to take adj
vantage of every opportunity offered. 1t will
be the only expedition of its kind in klondyke.
We want $4,000 in cash. And in order to
raise it quickly and to give every one a chance
to make money with us. this stock will be
sold at 81 per share, full paid and non
assessable, not more than 80 shares will be sold
to any one party.
There are companies claiming that they own
valuable claims, etc, in the klondyke, they
have fine Offices and pay high salaries to their
officials; If they have such valuable
claims why do they want to sell stock?
Such companies hurt an honest enterprise.
All the money paid into the Alaska Mining,
Dredging and Steamboat Company will be used
in fitting out the expedition; we have no
fancy offices: nor high salRried Off
ciaIs. After the expedition is ready, no more
stock will be sold at any price, and instead of
selling stock, W hen W e have our claims
in Alaska, we eNpect to pay large divi-
dends. Our stockholders who stay at home
will make just as much money as those who
GO; for we expect to bring back at least
go 900 900, this next year to be divided as divi-
dends, besides our claims which we will then
have, will be worth many times US much.
$4,000, 900 seems Il large amount, but when
it is considered that IL crew of twelve men with
our plant can do more work than five hundred
men by hand, and that with our plant, we get
the largest and richest nuggets from the beds
and bars of the river (which the miners cannot
get, as it is under water0 shows conclusively
that our estimate is conservative.
A chance like this comes but once i'll Il life
| life time, so it should be acted upon without
delay. No more stock will be sold after the
| amount actually needed is raised.
Address all orders to
