Slate Creek News.
SNOW HAS DISAPPEARED,
 CLAIMS ALL WORKING TROUBLE CAMP,

Slate Creek, June 12.-The snow Is all gone on Slate and for two or three claims up. Miller Gulch, and nearly every one is at work on their claims. The Tacoma claim is working two shifts, with a large force of men. The owners are putting in 2,OO0 foot ditch, taking their water out of Slate below dis tovery and bringing it along the hillside to the head of the claim. Should the water give out on Mil Ter Gulch the work on this piece of property will not cease. The ditch will furnish water during 2 the entire season. Government" Ed. Dickey has charge of construction of the ditch and Dr. Bradley and Bill Scott are managing the claim.
 The "Humdinger," Date X Ros- enthalls claim on Slate, is being opened as rapidly as possible. Geo. krau has charge of the work. Just at present only one shift is being worked. Mir. Krau informs me that as soon as cross-cut has been rut across the lower end of the property he will put on three s hour shifts.
 The California Boys" com menced shoveling in to-day. James Baker and Sim son have charge of the work.
 Brehme X Larson Bros. have been shoveling in for some time. They are working two shifts of ten men each.
 N. E Ohlsson's claim, leased to Carl Swanson, Garrett Hanson and others, is having a great deal of work done on it this year. The top of the entire creek property is being ground-sluiced. Already nearly four feet of the top gravel has been taken off. They will com mence to shovel in next week.
 Sandberg has two shifts at work He reports much better results than last year. He is employing about twelve men.
 Active operations have not be- gun vet on the -Four Black Dogs. {" The late freshet last year filled in most of the cuts, and they are be- ing ground-sluiced out. The work on this property is in charge of

 To Eagle City.

the work in a quiet, business-like, determined way that means success.
 The advantage that this railroad will have over all others talked of in Alaska is the fact that it is not only an all American route, but the line will he kept open all winter. Valdez can be entered by sailing ships as well as steamers the year round, and with a run of three days from Seattle to Valdez, and trip of one day from Valdez to the Yu- kon by rail, Dawson is brought to the very doors of Seattle.
 Senator Kittridge, of South Da- kota now has bill before the U. $. senate, asking that the government grant subsidy of every alternate section for ten miles on each side of the tract for building the road. The promoters of the road would like very much to have this subsidy, of course, but state emphatically that the road will be built, subsidy or no subsidy. By the building of this road, the longest in Alaska, all that great American territory now tributary to Dawson,-St. Michael, Circle City, Eagle City, and all the territory tributary thereto will get freight from Americans hauled in by an American road.
 The route over which the road will be built extends from Valdez to the great copper fields, following the valley of the Copper river, crossing the Panama river and thence to the Yukon, with lines running to the celebrated copper fields of the Chittyna river. The road will open up all that wonder ful country in Eastern Alaska, so rich in coal, copper and gold, which has climate as favorable to ag- riculture as that of Norway and Sweden, and which has enough . natural wealth to support mill lion of people.
 Fifteen engineers leave for Val- dez on the Santa Ana this morning and they will be joined in about three weeks by another party of 20 engineers under the direction of E. Gillette, the engineer in charge of the new railroad. These engin- eers go to make cross sections of the survey and prepare the route of the railway for the contractors.
 Mir. Gillette now holds respon- sible position with the Burlington railroad in Montana, and that stamps him as d competent railroad man. Mir. Gillette in speaking of the new road in which he is inter ested, is careful to say that it is not a Burlington project, though some of the men financially interested in the latter corporation may be be- hind the new venture that is to do for Alaska what the transcOntinen- tai lines did for the Pacific coast, by bringing that region in touch with the outside world.

Work on the Valdez. Copper
 River, & Yukon Railroad has com menced. A party of fifteen en- gineers arrived here on the Str. Santa Ana from Seattle last Tues day and on Wednesday morning at G o'clock they commenced work on the surveys, under the direction of
 Henry Deyo, who is at present in charge of the work.
 MT. o. P. Hubbard of Iowa City. Iowa, and Washington D. C., the legal representative of the com pany, also arrived on the same boat to attend to the legal busi- ness of the company at this place. Temporary offices of the company are being established in the White building at the corner of Mckinley street and Broadway.
 Mr. E. Gillette the we'll known engineer who surveyed a portion of this route in 1899, is the chief en- gineer of the new road and will arrive here in two or three weeks with corps of p surveyors and assistants, and will push the work of construction as rapidly as possi- ble, and the road will probably be completed to the summit for the spring trade.
 Surveys will now be made from Hazlett to Valdez and Bloomerville and one of these places will be made the terminal point of the road, but which place has not vet been definitely settled.
 A vessel is now on the way around the Horn loaded with rails for the road and enough are already purchased to build 70 miles of the line. Mir. Heney has not received the contract but it has been let to one of the most prominent railroad contractors in the United States.
 This is the company which Mir. B. F. Willard is representing here and the one he has said ever since he came up this spring would build the road. His statements that railroad would be built from Valedz bay to the Yukon and hy the company he represents is prov ing correct.
 The P. I. of the 10th has the fol- lowing to say regarding the project. "A standard guage railroad, com plete in every department, running from Valdez to the Yukon river, over an all American route, is one of the certainties of the next two years. The men behind this ven ture are no idle dreamers- They have no stock to sell, but they have what is better, complete survey of the proposed line, money enough to float the project, competent en- gineers to surmount the difficulties to be met along the line, and one of the ablest railroad constructors in the United States to push the work of construction through. The men who are furnishing the money for this road have built railroads in Nicaragua and South America, not to speak of the roads built in the United States, and are going about
