the dark, secret and corrupt manipula- tions that have heretofore been carried on at this place in the name of politics.
 Fairbanks can ill afford to indulge in sweeping denunciation of the political methods of other parts of Alaska. Only one class-a dominating and powerful class-of the Panama were permitted to take part in naming the Fairbanks can- didate that is expecting the support of the territory at large. Even the miners organizations outside of the Panama were ignored in the Fairbanks conven- tion.
 That convention put up good man. That man is hourly expected here; and it will be fortunate if, when he comes, he will repudiate enough of his pro- moters' tactics to permit his friends here to vote for him without loss of their own self respect.

PAY ON RUSSIAN
 GREEK.
Fifteen Claims Staked-..Eighty Pans
 Yield $.

Pay has been located on Russian creek.
 E. H. Chapman found the pay several weeks ago, but the matter was kept quiet up to the past week or ten days.
 Seven claims have been staked above and eight below discovery. The upper claim extends to about the head of the creek.
 Russian creek was stampeded in 1898. It is said that Mir. Chapman knew that pretty good pay was found that year and sank his ditcovery shaft near hole he had then banned from. Considers ble prospecting has been done on the creek from time to time, but most of it was lower down the creek.
 NJ. w. Sinclair returned from two- days visit to the creek last Thursday. He said Chapman's dirt appears to be all right There is four feet of pay and 80 pans yielded B. It is sixteen feet to bedrock.
 The distance to the new discovery is ten or twelve miles from Rampant by way of the head of Rampant creek.

 Mir. Brown yesterday dispatched 700 pounds of supplies to Glen to be cached at that place. Dan Courtney, member of the party, has gone to The Rapids with the main part of the outfit. Mir. Brown will proceed to Tanana to look after some instruments that were for warded from Fairbanks but sidetracked at the mouth of the Panama river, and will return and take up the work be- tween The Rapids and Fairbanks. The route to be determined upon will prob- ably extend up Fish creek several miles from the mouth and come out in the vicinity of Glen.

CHIEF SIGNAL OFFICERS REPORT

Chief Signal Officer Allen, in his re- port on the joint congressional resolu tion authorizing the secretary of war, in his discretion, to cause to be sold or leased the Alaskan telegraph system, says it is not believed that anything would be gained by the government or by the people of Alaska by selling or leasing sectional portions of the system, as it can probably be maintained and operated more economically and etti- ciently under one management than it could if divided into several administra- tions. Therefore SO much of the resolu ton as provides for leasing sectional portions is not approved. The great development of Alaska now demands an extension of the system. It is not im- probable that future demands for exten- sion will be greater. Some means should therefore be provided for the necessary and from time to time urgent extension of the system. If it is the policy of congress to dispose of the line, in would seem to be in the best interests of the United States to authorize the sale to the highest bidder, fixing the minimum price for which it should be sold and in- surfing a reliable service at reasonable rates, with priority to all government bttsiuc-z the rnte@ Ia be fixed hy the postmaster general; the fixing of a maximum commercial rate; an inhibi- ton on consolidation with any ioaei.n telegraph and cable company, and reas- oaable extensions. as circumstances might require.
 The systsm consists oi s,.gri miles of submarine cable. .lo5 miles ot hnd lines and i0s miIvs of wireless.

MANLEY'S
 OPINION OF
 KANTISHNA
Fairbanks Times.

"There is an excellent chance for the great gravel deposits of the Kantishna to show up some wonderful pay," said Frank Manley last evening to a number of friends, while discussing the possibil- ities of that.country.
 "I haAe come to this conclusion after viewing the country very carefully. My contention is that if the creeks which cut these great deposits of gravel carry pay it must have come from the im- mense beds of unprospected auriferous deposits in that district. Now, I am not saying that it will be easy to locate this pay. On the contrary, 1 believe that it will take time and the expendi- ture of much money to demonstrate my theory.
 "Once found" and here it was that Mir. Manley got very enthusiastic, "and it will be just like the Nome district: be very easy to follow the paystreak. In many respects it resembles that coun- try. But I want you to distinctly under stand that it will require work, work, work, work, and plenty of it."

FAIRBANKS PAPER
 PREVARICATES.
Gives False Version of Rampant
 Republican Meeting.

The Fairbanks Times, under date of August 8, in discussing and denouncing the Juneau republican convention says:
 "Composed of a few individuals who held the pretended proxies of persons whose names had been published as delegates from centers in Alaska at which were located one or more federal officials to whom telegrams had been sent by other officials and ex-officials in the First division, it represented noth- ing whatever but officialism or carpet bagism in politics. The public pulse was not manifested in any manner. In this division all of this was foreseen and the attempt to misrepresent the people was discouraged and prevented, except at Rampant, where the commissioner called meeting of the cohorts and duly designated delegates. No caucus was held; no notice was given, but word was passed around to few who would not object to the proceedings. The delegates selected were non-resdents, but that made no difference, their selection an- swered every purpose at Juneau. Prox- ies were what was wanted-not dele gates. Thus everywhere, so far as learned, no caucuses were held, but in- formal meetings at the instigation of some official"
 Insofar as the Times implies that the Juneau convention was non-representa- tive of the republicans of Alaska it is easily within the truth.
 Its statement of the case so far as Rampant is concerned is as false as a willful perverter of the truth could make it.
 The republican meeting at Rampant was held on the date and in accordance with the instructions promulgated by the chairman of the territorial republi- can committee. It was widely adver- tised and discussed; it was the first political meeting ever held in the camp in which all the members of any politi- cal party were invited to participate, and it is believed to mark the end of

Notes From Washington
From Our Regular Correspondent.

The imperial commission that
has Just reached Washington
from Chicago on d tour Of in
spectjon of the United States is
one of the most remarkable
bodies that this country has ever
seen. At the head are two of
the most scholarly men in the
Chinese empire, and they are
accompanied by a retinue of
sixty attaches and servants that
Indicated according to Chinese
standards the real Importance
of the En- bassy. The two heads
of the mission cannot talk Eng
lish or at least they say they can
not and they transact all their
business with this government
through interpreters. They
have been received by this gov
eminent with all the ceremony
that the Chinese Minister says
is due them, and they are in
vestigating everything in Amer
lea fron the making of steel in
Pitts burg to the question of CO.
education in Stanford University
California. 1t was pointed out
by one of the secretaries of the
Mission today that the Empress
Dowager had given the Mission
special Instructions to look into
the question of female education
in the United States. And the
secretary, who is a remarkably
clever and attractive personality
said that while this might not be
regarded as very important
move in America where female
education was taken as a matter
of course, it was a most radical
step for the Empress of China,
who has always heretofore held
with the Chinese notion that
female education, except of
course in her own case was not
a desirable thing at all. Of
course if this all means that
China is really waking up and is
about to adopt western methods
and ideas, it is a momentous
event for the rest of the world.
A country with the population of
China is already cut out for a
world power if she ever takes
the notion of being one. Imagine
a country with ten times the
population, wealth and resources
of Japan putting on her dynamic
and warlike force.

see that two of the strongest of

measure is a strong indication

ZONE OF TROUBLE.

cyster Bay. NJ Y. July 17.--Peace
nsgutiatlons between Guatemala and
Salvador are being arranged by Pres
ident Roosevelt and Acting Secretary
OF state Bacon at Sycamore Hill. The
question not yet settled is whether
Honduras will become party to the
negotiations at this time. 1t is rea-
soned here that 1t would hardly be fair
to compel Guatemala to face two for
mer toes In a peace conference at one
time. Honduras will probably agree
to the settlement arranged by the two
states primarily involved.
The negotiations, 1t Is stated, will
doubtless be held on board the Amer
loan cruiser Marblehead. now In Guate-
Oalan waters.
The arbitrators on behalf Of the
United States and Mexico will be the
Mexican minister to Central America
and Messrs. Combs and Merry, United
States ministers to Guatemala and

details of the proceedings beyond this
have not been arranged.
