NEW QUARTZ FIND WILL RUN
 HIGH IN SILVER AND COPPER

"Idaho Bill" said this morning that he and his partner had stakcd some new quartz locations east of Cape Resurrection and he thinks that the ore will run high in both silver and copper. For six weeks they have been prospecting new ground and working their large ledge they located last sum- mer. They have been sinking shaft on the old property and the ore gets better as depth is reached. They brought some good looking ore up with them and will have it asSayed.
 Bill is a good quartz miner and he believes thet the cou,Cfs' east of Cape Resurrection will prove to be better than any property Tn Prince William sound. All it needs he says is deveI- opment work. Miles of the country east of the point is highly mineral ized and some day will be a great mining district.
 W. R. Leitzke, more familiarity known as "Idaho Bill" and his part ner. H. Orseth, returned early this morning in a small boat from their copper property east of Cape Resur- lection. The boys made several un- successfel attempts to get here, and in one trial lost their large boat with their blacksmith outfit and various other things. Theyreport the weather as being very severe, the tides and surf being exceptionally high.

WILD lNDIAN AT KNIK TRIES
 TOKILL US. COMMISSIONER

Sam $. Kramer arrived here lasl nigh over the trail from Knik with one Beldic, native, accused of insanity. A few days ago at Knik this native felt he had a grievance agains Judge John Goodell the United States com missioner at that place and took sever- al shots with rifle at the building in which the judge has his office. tortu- nately none of the bullets took any eff feet except on the logs of which the building is constructed.
 Bill Dick, as he is usually known has been mentally unbalanced for several years and was at one time in the Jail here for three months charged with insanity. However with good care he became so much better that he vas discharged and sent back to Knik. About a year ago he was taken bad again and had all the natives at Knik hoodoed. Judge Goodeu took him in charge and has been keeping him about the jail and office taking good care of him, thinking that he was not dangerous enough to send to the asylum. However, when the wild eyed native took it into his heada few days ago to practice with a 3O.3O on the igIoo in which the jovial dispenser of justice had domiciled himself for the winter, he thought the joke was going too far, and sent him here to be examined for his sanity as there was no physician at Knik to pass upon the mental condition of the accused.
 At the investigation held this morn ing before Judge Hewlett the jury de- clared the prisoner insane and he was ordered committed to the asylum at Mt. Tabor, Oregon.

GUGGENKEIMS WILL HAVE
 BIG LOBBY IN WASHINGTON

Washington, D. C.-That the Gug- genheims are planning upon grabbing up every industry and as much of the mining ground in Alaska and the northIand as they can get their hands on is quite evident from numerous facts which have leaked out from time time.
 What can't be grabbed up by their representatives in the north will be bought in other methods on the out side. There will probably be more Alaskan bills introduced into congress during the coming session than during any other two sessions in past years, The Guggenheims are preparing to be represented in the lobby rooms by an immense body of men who will do all in their power to prevent any leg isIation for Alaska which will work to the detriment of their large corporate interests or will result in home rule,
 It is understood that number Of prominent Alaskans have been en- gagged by the great trust to look after their interests, it being realized that men acquainted with the condi- tions of the country could lend greater assistance than any others.-Nome Pio- neer Press.
