SOLOMON Promising Section Forg. ing to the Front.
A Ditch to be Built Early Next SeasOn...WOrk on Stamp
 Mil is Under Way

Slowly but steadily the Solomon river country Is forgin. to the front. Two years ago that section was not looked upon as at all promising. Last year it began to look better, because some little work was done during the sea son. This year the work done has borne fruit and solomon river and its tributaries have yielded considerable amount of gold dust.
 C. A. Gitfen, a Los Angeles oil man, who has been in this section since early last sprin. returned yesterday from d two weeks trip through the Solomon country. As d result of his visit he has secured group of claims which he considers one 1.-the very best hydraulic propositions in Alaska. MT. Giifen had careful estimates made of the gravel deposits, the lowest being Sl.40 to the cubic yard, the highest @2.1O. So pleasd is he with the outlook that he has already perfected arrangements for the construction of ditch G! miles long between Shovel and Jerome creeks to bring water to the ground. Some iium- ing and piping will be necessary and the work will be commenced early next spring and rushed to completion.
 "I consider solomon river one of the best mining districts in Alaska,' he said yesterday, "althOugh. aS yet, there has not been d single claim worked systematically, still, with the crudest methods of mining, most Of he opera tors have made little money. have secured d group of claims which old California hydraulic miners tell me is the best gravel they have seen.
 Nos. :, $. 9 and 10, on Solomon. will be worked this winter aS well aS the bench off No. ,. and No. ? on Big lIur- rah. A good pay>treak has been found on No. 6 as well as on the bench oppO- site No. ,.
 The quartz prospects, too, arc eX- ceedingly tlattering. Work of eXcavat- ing for the foundation of the stamp mill on the Hurrah mine, owned by Mrs. (. D. Lane, is under way, and lot of lumber for the mill is being un- loaded from q barge at the mouth of Solomon. Development work on a number of other quartz mines is also actively under way.
 ..Moran gulch has. turned out very well this season. but operations have been retarded owing to a lack of water. The ditch which we will build next spring will supply all the,e claims with water. Mystery creek has been worked more protitably this season than any other creek in that section, and it may be said that besides this creek and Big Hurrah, which has yielded a good deal of gold, not another creek has been prop erly prospected.
 "A copper ledge, carrying peacock copper, was recently discovered on Mt. Solomon, opposite Big Hurrah. It is said to be promising."
The Nome nugget., 1902-10-08
Believed to Have Been
 Found on Anvil.
Work of Development Now Under Way-=A Quartz Ledge Also
 Probably Found.

What promises to be an immense body of pay-gravel has been found on a bench off No. II above on Anvil. It is owned by N. P. R. Hatch, but is under lease to Dr. Kittilsen and Dr. Southward. The lessees have run d 30-foot tunnel into the hill and have found boulders and wash gravel. The ground in which they are working is evidently a slide, and they expect to find the old channel within short time.
 Mir. Hatch said yesterday that he be- lieved that the same channel which is found on the famous Hot Air and Glacier runs through the divide from Anvil. The right limit of Anvil has never been thought to carry pay still little or no work has been done on it.
 Immediately below the tunnel which is being pushed into the hill by Kittelsen and South ward MT. Hatch is prospecting quartz ledge He is also tunneling and has found some fine rock, assays of which have shown values as high as S52 to the ton. MT. Hatch's theory is that mountain was ground down by glacial action thus feeding the placerS of Anvil and forming an ancient river bed and that the ledge on which he is now working is part of the pre- glacial mountain left intact after the glacier had run it's course.

THEBENCHES
Of Candle. Creek Promise to Become Producers.
A Good Deal OfTW0rk Will be Done This Winter on Various
 Bench ClaimS.

F.. F. Halloran. who is interested with the Lee boys on the bench claims off No. l9 Candle creek, is in town MT. Halloran states that he is much pleased with the results of the season s work on the bench claims. He believes that Candle benches will develop into big pay producers. So far, however, little development work has been done ex- cept on No. lg bench and it has proved highly satisfactory. It is the belief of most mining men who have examined Candle creek this seasonithat the gold in the creek bed was '.sloughed off from an old channel which will be found in the benches. There will be a good deal of work done this winter on the benches: several thawing machines will be at work all winter, and before next spring it is expected that excellent re- ports will be heard from Candle benches.

A BIG CATCH.
More Whales Than for
 Many Years.
The Alexander Has Made the Phe. nOmenaI Catch of Y Whales

The whalerS which have Teen in the Arctic this season, as q rule. have met with great sGcce,s. This statement is made by Captain West, of the steamer torwin. The report was made to Cap tain West by some natives who had met Captain Morg, in command of one of Captain Mck enna , fleet of whaiers.
 Captain Morg told the natives, who know all the whalers well. that the Alexander had caught r. whales. the karluk ,. Jeanette 1. while all the others were doing well. The AleXan- ders catch i, phenomenal. Whales, for some reason or other. have been more plentiful this year than for many years previously.

A Selfish Attempt.

THE NOME NUGGET is a union paper, and pays better wages to it's employees than any other newspaper in Nome. Gus BOltz against whom the newsboys are alleged to have a grievance has sold THE NUGGET on the creeks ior year past. He has done excellent work. He has never sold THE NUGGET for less than 25 cents. Now comes one Mauro. circulat- or of a contemporary, and he is attempting to boycott THE NUGGET not because 1t pays better wages than the other papers, or because THE NUGGET k sold on the streets and creeks for D cents and no less but in the interest of the paper he represents. That's all there is to it.. TIE NUGGETS patrons are being approached by this fellow who attempts to induce them to drop their subscriptions. THE NUGGET has only to state that this man is actuated solely for the reason above mentioned.
