u. 5. Commissioner Moran recently re-
ceived letter from the ''prospectors
of the Koyukuk,' addressed to the
"prospectors of the Kobuk," telling Of
last season work and inquiring about
strikes on the kobuk. The letter was
brought here by native, and is dated
Nov. 30. Here are a few extracts:
THE Indians coming over from your
country say you are finding some pay
over there. We are all interested and
would like to know the extent of it.
eve have new strike here, on
Wild creek. made this fall, and it is
causing some excitement, but the ex-
tent of the pay is not known as yet.
One-half the men in this country are in
the new diggings, sinking holes. and
all the reports are good.
I'VE had very prosperous season,
more money being taken out than ever
before, and everyone has grubstake
and some money this winter. A large
number of miners went out this fall,
but will come back in the spring.
There are about POO here now
Last spring two men from your
country went up the Husstiakatana
river, which heads in the other side of
the range from the Selawik river. We
have heard nothing of them since"
The men referred to as going up the
above river were Duncan and Griggs.
Although the big stories reported in
Nome about the Shunnak section are
greatly exaggerated, there has been
some gold taken out here, and things
show up finely for the amount of pros
pecting that has been done. am well
pleased with the outlook and, while
this section will not justify boom, it
is very promising for the actual pros
pectOr.
The Reilly being stuck near the
mouth of the Kobuk will put things
back nearly year. as many who ex-
pected to sled their summers grub up
the creeks this winter have their out

APRIL 5
According to Date Fixed
by an Ordinance
OF GREAT LENGTH
No Registration Ordinance, How.
ever, as Yet, But One Is
Promised Soon.
OF GREAT LENGTH

The meeting of the city council on
Monday evening was devoid of any ex-
citing features. A long law was
passed entitled, IAN ordinance making
rules for municipal elections The
date of holding such was fixed for the
first Tuesday after the first Monday of
April in each year. An attempt was
made to fix the date for this year on
the second Tuesday in April, but after
objections by Stevens and Hoxsie the
date was finally set for April 5.
The ordinance covers Il typewriter
pages and is taken almost entirely
from the election law of the state of
Washington. No provision was made for
registration of voters although Stevens
made an attempt to have an adjourned
meeting on Wednesday evening for the
purpose of passing registration ordi-
nance. The other members of the
council thought there was "plenty of
time" and it was stated that the regis
lration ordinance would be forthcOm-
ing at the next meeting.
Hill and Stevens scrapped fiercely at
times, and the bill of Chairman Rowe,
of the street committee, for S391.75, for
moving the city hall bnilding from the
sandspit, called out sundry and divers
unfavOrable comments from Stevens.
A petition to open Second street
from Tanner & Clark 5 lumber yard to
Hunter way" was referred TO the
street committee, and a number of
bills were ordered paid from the fire
fund. ~ number of property assess
ments were also ordered reduced.
Then Rowe, Of the street committee,
reported that he had moved the city
ball building at an expense of 1895 10
He said he had consulted with J. II.
Montgomery and w. r.. Watson as to
the cost of moving the building and
they gave IL figure of $400. They were
the only men whom he deemed compe-
tent of moving the building. having
the horses and necessary appliances.
and he (ROwe) thought he could move
it cheaper himself. The bill was re-
ferred to the finance committee.
Stevens objected to the bill. AS a
member of the street committee he had
not been consulted as to the contract.
He had inquired of transfer men as to
the cost of moving such building, and
he thought the amount too much.
Hoxsie said Rowe had submitted an
itemized report. The labor being EN-
ployed on the city hall should be paid
in cash. Hoxsie raped those whom
he called the great and good busin' SIS
men," especially of the east end no
had held an Indignation meeting re-
Gently in a warehouse. He thought
when a man worked for the city he
should receive cash and the merchants
who were so much interested il city
matter should be given warrants.
In the meantime Hill was Quitting
in" with sundry and divers remarks,
and Stevens said he didn't wan to hear

A FIERCE
LEGAL BATTLE
A Suit in Equity for the Posses.
sion of a Dry Creek
Bench Claim.

The case of "Chips" Eeraerts against
J. B. Wood and Eugene Chlberg, in
volving the title TO the Bella Kirke
bench claim on the left limit of Dry
creek, opposite No. 3 above discovery,
has been occupying the attention of
the district court for a week, and is
attracting considerable interest in
mining circles on account of the known
value of the ground in dispute.
The property in question was former
ly owned by Jacobs and Requa, two
we'll known pioneer miners of the dis
trict. In the fall of 1902 Jacobs gave a
lay and option on the claim to Eeraerts,
but he alleges that the latter failed to
live up to the terms of the contract and
thus forfeited his rights in the premises.
The claim was subsequently sold to
Wood and Chilberg, and is now oper-
ated under a lease by Anderson and
johnson, who have taken out large
and valuable dump.
Eeraerts. in his complaint, alleges
that he has fulfilled the requirements
of his lease and option, and stands ready
to purchase the property at the speci-
fed figure.
An array of legal talent is engaged
in the suit, which is holly contested
one. 1t will probably be ended either
TODAY or tomorrow
