Apparently the Klondike gold dig
gings have reached the maximum OF
their productiveness. A representa-.
tive OF the Canadian government who
recently went to Dawson, the princi-
pal town in the Klondike region, to
look over the situation, has made a
report, which says that, while the
gold production there in 1901 was
about $24, ,000, 600 it will not, acc ord
ing to his estimates, exceed $l4 ,000,.
600 in 1902. No new discoveries have
been made in the past year, although
the mountains. valleys and beds OF
streams for hundreds of miles around
the gold fields have been prospected.
As a consequence business in Dawson
10 depressed and thousands are leaving
for the United States. This, OF course,
does not affect the Alaska gold dig
gings. The Klondike field is in Cam
ada, few miles east OF the United
States line. Over in United States
territory, however, the prospecting
has hardly yet begun. Nome did not
turn out quite so we'll a. was expected,
but it has not yet been exhausted.
The placer gold is practically all that
has been looked for in either the
Klon dixie or at Nome. This is the
gold that is always found first in new
fields. 1t 10 that which il on or near
the surface. Tho quartz deposits,
which are usually not far from the
placers, are dealt with later. These
demand machinery and capital, which
are commonly beyond the resources
OF the discoveries or the early corners
in gold field.
It is the opinion Of exports that
Alaska will turn to be richer in gold
than any other part of the United
States. Some gold has been mined
there from the early days OF that
region a. United States territory. No
attempt has been made to prospect
that country except at Nome and in
that neighborhood. The absence of
= government for Alaska on the com.
plete territorial plan has acted as .
deterrent for many of those who
would otherwise have been glad TO
try their fortunes in that region. The
United States gold production in the
past two or three years has been at or
close to the $4,000, 900 mark, and
there 10 not likely to be . serious de-
cline from this figure. Moreover,
quartz mining in the Klondike is
probably near at hand, but the at
fractions Of that region for the casual
gold-seeker depending on his own
labor and on primitive methods have
disappeared.
