Trail from Salt Creek
 To Ray River Spring

Allen Dale has blazed trail from his cabin at the mouth of Salt creek to Ray River hot spring. He esti- mates the distance over this route at not to exceed twenty miles. If the spring and the country adjacent attract the attention of health seek CTS and prospectors that 1t is ex- pected they will, MT. Dale will make the new trail passable for horses.
 While in town last week he said he had covered the ground between his place aud the spring ill day. By opening horse trail this would become the most feasible route to the spring and would obviate the tortuous journey in polling boats up Ray river.
 MT. Dale says that Clement An derson has landed his winter outfit at Ray River canyon. He is under the impression that MT. Anderson will prospect on the right fork, in- stead of establishing his headquar- ters at the hot spring, as previously intended.

Carter was printed in the News of Aug. IS. The letter says: Have been here some ten days and have seen all there is to see up to date. There is some gold i'll this country, but very little. and evidently all in one bunch. You will do me a great favor by notifying some of my friends to stay at home. Have Ed Lynch tell Tom Graham to stay in Fairbanks. Have Dan notify Joe LyEch to stay at home. Tell Ste phen Allison that he was lucky to ge, on tLe grand jury and save a couple of hundaed of miles of polling and hard work. A little pay was struck on Eureka, but it is not ex- tensive. The other creeks, Glacier and Caribou, have no work done on them and are poor looking creeks. The country is shallow, bedrock croppings showing in the creek beds in many places. Will do some work here. and if nothing shows will return to Fairbanks. Be sure and tell Lynch and Graham to stay at home. If anything is found here I will send word as soon as possi- ble."
 The above letter, shown by MT. Carter to some friends, was the means of stopping one large party which was ready to go, as the mem- bers know MT. Hyde and place re- liance upon his statements.

A Quiet Stampede
 Down the Yukon

A letter to Rampant friend from w. H. Porter, dated Panama, Aug. 3I, says:
 Harry Winde and start on stampede down the river today. All very much on the quiet. Have pretty straight dope, if we ain't too la:e. I have leased the hotel in Fairbanks for one year-so am footloose for that long.

GOOD AND BAD REPORTS OF THE KANTISHNA
Not Enough Work Done On Which Base n Estimate, but Favorable Opinion
 PredOrninates

Just what will be the result o the Kantishna stampede is not ye clear. There seems to be mucl difference of opinion as to the prob able value of the new district: bu great majority of the reports s' tar-though indefinite are favora ble. Arrivals from the Tanan; country nearly all seem to hav' strong impressions of Kantishna' worth-based, of course, principally on hearsay, which, while it prove. nothing, furnishes tolerably accu rate idea of what prospectors think of it.
 The Cinema Times of Aug. 3e says: From information gathered and conversations had with differer parties returning from the Kantish na district, it is without a doubt { good country. How extensive tho gold bearing strata will prove to be remains yet to be seen. Eureks creek is the best so far, followed by Caribou, Glacier and Moose. Flu reka is said to be but a short creek only six miles long, while the oth CTS are much longer, but not SC rich. It is claimed the white chan nel has been found, and should thi. prove to be true no doubt much car be said in favor of the newly dis covered country. One claim or Eureka has been sold for s. 500 but others are not for sale excepting at what looks to be fabulously higt prices, and no standard of value fol ground can be placed, owing to the meager state of prospecting so far A new townsite is being located a the mouth of Bear Paw creek ol river, which will likely form tho base of supply for the camp, and i is also intended to establish another townsite at the junction of the Panama and Kantishna rivers, where the larger boats plying the Tanana river will unload their cargoes Fort Gibbon must also be taker into account as a supply point.
