crosses reports of big finds are coming
to town in greater numbers daily. Big
strikes are reported on Cleary, Fairbanks
and several other Of the first-staked
creeks In the neighborhood Of $500, 900 in
dust has already been brought to town,
and the spring cleanup is not yet com

Of million dollars.
Though skeptically viewed for many
months, the Tansna has at last become
established as one of the big camps Of
the North. The population is being added
to daily, people coming from every quar-
ter. The district is drawing chiefly from
other Alaskan camps, and most notably
from Dawson.
On the first four boats that assembled
the Tanana this spring, the last of which
arrived this week, more than 200 Daw.
son people arrived at Fairbanks. They
report that scores Of others are preparing
to follow within few weeks, and if CON
ditions in Fairbanks look as good q month
AiNih INV as dt pfSseHty IHe hiOnulkc

next winter.
About fifty Dawson business houses
have established branches here. They
admit that they are doing this so as to
be able to move their entire business

Captain Fuller, owner of the Klondike
telephone system, is among those who are

phone system at Fairbanks, to be connect

moved, has resulted in Canadian Collector
Of Customs Busby suggesting the removal
of the town 10 high ground on the other
side Of the Yukon.
Busby says the only available site where
security could be had is across the Yu-
kon, on the right limit of the river There
the bank is high, the ground is level, the
channel is near shore where there is al
ways deep water. and an excellent site
for the city could be laid out Forty
mile post is historic spot. the oldest
white settlement on the river above the
Russian mission, and to many of the old
timers it would seem like sacrilege to talk
of its abandonment. but before the big
companies will again suffer the loss already
endured two seasons, it is not at all i'm
probable that they will take steps to
better protect their interests by seeking
another location.
