COPPER RIVER COUNTRY.
California Miner Describes II ns Yet
in Its Infancy--Quartx and
Placer Gold.

In a letter addressed 10 a friend on
Douglas island and published in the Doug
las Island News. well known California
miner gives some interesting data re-
garding the Copper river country. Tine
letter is written from Chittyna, and says
in part:
"The camp here IL not yet very lively
one, for the Copper river country has
been pretty well deserted. Not more than
a dozen Of the hundreds who went up this
way are still In the country. II was

pected a day, and II IL safe to say not
one.half of the prospectors ever panned

the country black eye. Those of us who
came here TO succeed however. did not
condemn the country at first sight. and
today we can produce abundant evidence
OF the vast wealth of the great Copper
river country.
'Bonanza and Quartz creeks produce
well and promise better. There is good
placer on Bremner and n world OF the
finest copper on the ChIttyna. Many cop
per claims--not for sale-have been staked
near Orca, and the gold Of the Alganik
mining district is marvel in quantity and
quality.

wtrld over for their successful mining
enterprises. over fifty quartz claims are
staked here now. and each and every
one shows free gold. The Bonanza as
sayed from SIS TO $i22 ton, and averages
$50, and the Bonanza can't hold a candle
to the skuka or the Lucky mine.
Truly II IL destined to be a rich camp
The camp-Tecktelia, 1t IL called--is most
beautifully situated on the shores of NE

THE ALASKA GRAND JURY.
Report Made to Judge Brown-Cierk
of the Court Albert ID. Ell
hot Is Criticised.

A few hours before the Dirigo sailed
from Skagway the United States grand
jury made its report to Judge Melville
C. Brown. 1t was a brief document con-
tanning three typewriter pages. a great
er portion of which was devoted TO crit
icism of Albert D. Elliott, clerk of the
district court, for not issuing forms or
licenses as prescribed by law, together
with a receipt for amount of fee PAID.
Thirty eight cases were examined into
and thirty-four true bills returned.
The report in conclusion says, regard
ing the Elliot investigation:
THE grand jury are unanimous In the
opinion that the conduct, or rather the
misconduct, OF the clerk in this connec-
ton is highly censurable. and we ear
nestly recommend to the court that such
measures be adopted as Will compel
Clerk Elliot to perform his duty in this
behalf, in proper and lawful manner.
And we further recommend that IN all
cases where the license Is dated back to
the 1st day of July, when in reality bust
ness was not commenced until n later
date. the money for that intervening
period be refunded TO the party from
whom It has been extended so that 1t
will cover full year.
And we also recommend to the court
that steps be taken to provide the town
of Skagway with a court house and jail
suitable to the requirements and de-
mands for such buildings.
