HOW INNOKO GOLD WAS FOUND
Much Discouraged Camper Kicks a
Rock in Disgust and Reveals
shiny Metal.

Fairbanks. Wash. Sept. with
an immense poke full of copper ore
and gold bearing quartz almost in
credible in its richness, Arthur Nalen-
tine a prospector well known in the
Yukon and the Tanaua district, re-
turned from the InnokO. bringing
with him stories of conditions and
prospects in the new diggings. Val
entine is retlcent as to his trip and
deprecates the idea OF a stampede.
According TO the reports brought
by Valentine. quartz mining will be
the mainstay OF the lnnoko camps.
and the first discovery is surrounded
by as much romance as was the dis
eovery OF the Occur d'Alene, the
Utica of Angels camp. or any one Of
dozen more of the worlds most Ia
nous producers.
Tired and sore after a hard day $
march. the original locators had
spread their blankets at pleasant
spot on the divide between Glacier
and Tom Gaines creeks. A stone ac-
cidentally displaced by one of the
men in the process of making camp
revealed a sight which made the eyes
of the old prospectors bulge out in
MANAGEMENT. Beneath their feet lay
quartz rich with free milling gold.
A hurried prospect showed the
ledge to extend on the surface for a
width of over twenty feet, all equally
as rich as was the spot at which the
first discovery was made. Enough Of
the quartz was pounded out in a
roughly constructed mortar in one
day to yield handsome grubstake,
with which the men purchased an out
fit at the nearest post and are now en-
gagged in developing their property.
These men declare they have traced
the ledge to the ridge on the opposite
side of the valley, and are of the be-
lief that it extends for, great dis
lance.
Valentine also brought back with
him specimens of copper ore which
was declared by experienced hard
rock miners to be the best ore they
had seen in the territory.
From the story told by Valentine
TO his friends, the Innoko placers APP
pear to be pocket proposition rather
than diggings which show any signs
of permanency. The original locators
of Tom Gaines creek traversed
great distance of the stream, getting
good results fom spotted places. The
gravel caught by a wash powder III
one spot yielded them a return OF
500 in one day. but the creek bed all
around 1t was barren of pay. Mug
gets running as high as $50 have
been picked up on discovery claim.
The best placer discoveries have so
far been made on the high benches.
The diggings have the advantage OF
being shallow and easily prospected,
but conditions are almost unbearable
on account of the mosquitoes which
make work a torture even to the
hardest OF hardened prospectors.
According TO Valentine, the coun-
try is almost entirely staked, one man.

We are very much afraid that
West Virginia folks will not have
two. cent railroad fares this year, not
withstanding the promise OF almost
every Republican candidate for the
Legislature to vote for such a measure
The House passed two-cent bill that
was all right-plain, unambiguous and
effective-one that could not have
been successfully attacked in the
courts. The Senate absolutely refus-
ed to concur in this bill. Inst cad, 1t
passed bill providing for two-cent
fares on all railroads exceeding fifty
miles in length, measure that will
probably have no chance whatever In
the courts. The niger in the wood
pile is not concealed from the most
casual view, and the fact that the rail-
road lobbyists themselves favored 1t
shows what sort OF bill it is. This
is the measure that both houses agreed
on the first of the week-we do not
advise our readers to bank very heav-
lily upon it.
