ATTEMPTS TO KNOCK
Cannot Operate Long to the Det- riment of the District - Several SCIaims Now in Active Operation on Quartz and Dahl Creeks.

"Kougarok is coming out all right, despite the statements of those who are attempting to knock it, said F.. l.. Rosqui yesterday. Mr. Bosqui has been in the kougarok section since last spring and, in connection with -George R. Worn, has been opening up 2 Dahl creek claim belonging to Capt. Peter Baye.
 '"Dahl." says Mr. Bosqui, lis rich up to No. 5: Martin Dahl's claim at the .mOuth of the creek being especially so. Quartz creek is also good up to II ~~above. Futher up than that and below discovery little is known. The creek is flat and below discovery is probably deep The indications, too, are that good pay will be found in the benches. Numbers of claims are being opened up, including Jerry Galvin's which is .rich, and Louis Lanes. Some week, ago Calvin rocked out $l,0O0 and took it to Nome and paid of some pressing engagements; and yet there are those who say that Galvin's claim is no good. In fact it is one of the best.
 "Garfeld is good between the two discoveries. aud a goodly quantity of gold will be taken out this season. Coffee has not yet shown up to any S, considerable extent, and some men who had lays on the creek have quit, but it does not follow that the creek has no paystreak. Lots of supplies are in the district, and Mr. Bosqui is con fdent that it will give q good account of itself, both this season and seasons to come.'
 Nlr. Bosqui also visited Gold Run on the way down. Gold Run is all right, , / he said. ''From Hayden's discovery up to No. If the claims are all good. On No. ? one day last week two men sluiced 19 ounces: other claims recently opened, or about to be opened, are :, equally promising"
 Captain Holmberg also returned on Sunday from visit to Kougarok. He is not well pleased with the outlook in that section, though not inclined to give it black eye, preferring rather = to await the developments of the future before condemning it..
 A. H. Jose. who is interested on Quartz, Dahl and other creeks in the KOugarok, came down on Sunday from Dahl creek. Mr. Jose says that both creeks are rich, and as verihcatOn of the statement he exhibited a sample of gold worth about S4, which was taken the other day from a Dahl creek claim. . 1.-The KOugarok country is all right he said.
 On Ruby Creek.
 Three and half miles of Ruby creek, CasadepOga district, or all claims be- low upper discovery and the mouth of the creek, are good, according to the statement made by Adam Thein, who, '> with C. M Garfield, owns Nos. and j. Mir. Thein, who was il, town Saturday. located No. in 1899. Last year he took out about SJ,000 in dust which assayed at the Seattle assay office $l9.07 per ounce- Work is just be- ginning to start up on the different claims. There are probably POO men on the creek and its tributaries. Two cean-ups have been made on No. 4. amounting to $70O, everything from the surface being shoveled in. On Nos. and , thirty-tive men will be employed during the season.
 On w. l.. Midgely's claim, No. be- low upper, Mir. Thein took a number of pans, which ran from $3.3O to $4.5O to the pan.
 On Iowa and Dog creeks, tributaries of Ruby, good prospects have also been found. Four hundred dollars was taken from claim on Dog creek last year.
 The best way to reach Ruby creek is by,Z;ay of Solomon river antLT, [S',, ac Ss the divide.
