NEWS ALL GOOD

All Bullion creek news is good news. That is as truly the case now as it was last fall. All the bad reports from the whole district that have been put in circulation, originated with people who never reached the creek, or if they did reach it, they did so only to return without Investigating. But it is re- markable how few of these reports have been put in circulation. Six months after the discovery of Atlin, and the Panama and other camps in the north, the papers down in the states were full of the pesimistic report brought out by quitters and the dis gruntled.
 The fact that the verdict of those who have been on Bullion creek is unani- nous, that without exception it is affirmed that the creek is uuquestion- ably rich, is conclusive evidence that the foundation of a great mining camp is being laid in that country.

ALL GOOD News of Bullion Is All of
 Rich Strikes

Good reports are now received from the Bullion and Alsek districts daily. Each day witnesses the return of some we'll known person or the receipt of let oers from well known people on Bull lion, or Ruby or another cf the many creeks, and all tell of rich gold bearing gravelS.
 The Whitehorse Star published a symposium of these reports from more than 20 claims on Bullion creek and they were all taking out from 10 cents 70 60 cents to the pan.
 W. F. Rogers received letter from his partner on No. II below discovery oa Bullion, who told him of one man taking out s22. 55 in one hour on No. l3 below. It was stated that this pay dirt was three feet deep on bedrock.
 Lou Mcintyre, recently from Bullion, says big pokeS will be taken out from that country between now and fall Every ybOdy, he says, Is banning out Olg pay, and when Sluiciug shall have be- gun, which will be in about three weeks or a month on discovery and some of the claims on which the work is furtherst advanced, the dust will be- gin to accumulate.
 Similar statements as these could be iterated by the score.

sOILED GEESE

There is an old saying that 1t Is dirty bird that fouls its own nest. If that Is true, there is no dirtier flock of geese on the American continent than the Alaskan tories. Not only do they try to beioul the district of Alaska and it's people, but they are constantly dis credltipg themselves. For instance they assert that if Alaska were given a territorial form of government, the offices would be filled by those who are now advocating such an organization, thus frankly admitting that they mis- represent when they say the people are opposed to territorial government, and also, with equal frankuess, admitting that they not only do not speak for the people as they claim they do, but that the people would repudiate them at the
 
 first opportunity they were given to do so.
 The Ketchikan Journal says to the point:
 "The opponents of popular govern ment for Alaska seem to fear that un- der home rule it's advocates would a,l all the local oHiees-iudeed iterate and reiterate the assertion that the lust for office is the chief if not only motive of those who advocate the proposed change. It is altogether likely that, if accorded a voice in the selection of local officials, the people would give the preference to those who will have been largely instrumental in bringing about the change, rather than cast their ballots for those who, could they have it their way, would deny them the right to vote at all; but still the people would be the arbiters, and the inSinua- tion that they would choose unwisely is, like every tory argument, an insult to their intelligence. A suggestion that the opponents of popular home government are swayed by the fear that the people would exclude them from office would strike much nearer the truth than the insinuatiOn that those who advocate such a measure of relief from carpet-gag rule are prompt ed only by desire for place.

That Fourth of July creek contains the best poor mans diggings iu thenew mining country is the conviction of many recent arrivals from that section. It is said that the dirt is not only rich, but that it has been discovered to be frozen to bedrock, thus eliminating the water problem.
