Bright Prospect

On account of improved labor con- ditions at Fairbanks, Alaska, the state- ment of Joseph R. Mathews that the mine owners expect a yield of about S15, ,O0O, ,00O will be accepted as con- servative estimate of the gold output in that section. Of course much will depend, as Mir. Mathews says, on the water supply during the partially dry season. ,...
 There is at the moment, an element of encouragement in the Alaska situ- ation which promises well for the cur rent year, and those who know the possibilities of the northern country will not be surprised at gold output much in excess of previous records. The gold is there, if the miners can get it out, and the world needs it. P.I.

LONG, HARD FIGHT IS
 ENDED
John F. Goodwin Of Fairbanks Is
 Chosen by Judge Reid Upon Application of John E. BaIIaine
 Representing the BOndhOIderS.
By Cable to The Daily Gateway.


 Fairbanks, May P - Judge Silas H. Reid yesterday appoint ed John F. Goodwin of Fair banks receiver for the Alaska Central Railway and the Panama Railway Construction Compa- nies. This appointment was made on application of John E. BaIlaine, who was supported in his petition by the holders of S3, ,OOO,OOO, worth of bonds. The holders include the Sovereign Bank of Canada, The Central Trust Company of Illinois and J. P. Morgan & Company of New York.
 MT. Goodwin was endorsed for receiver bS Mir. Ballaine. The law made it impossible to appoint Mir. Ballaine receiver, because he appeared as plaintiff in the application for the re- ceivership.
 The charges made by MT. Ballaine against A. c. Frost were all sent by cable and over land wire from Seattle to Fair banks. In his charges Ballaine accuses Frost and Osborne of gross dishonesty in padding their accounts and of bond ing the first forty-SiX miles of the Alaska Central railroad Tor four times the cash cost of the construction of the road, and of systematic swindling in connec- tion with the building of the road, all of which made the f. nancing of the property while under their control an utter i'm possibility.
 Judge James Wickersham is representing MT. Ballaine in this action. /

To Remove Stains,

Most stains will yield to simple
treatments. II they do not, soak them
In javelle water, then rinse. Javelle
water is the most effective of all
cleaning fluids, and is cheap-a gallon
costs only few cents. Dissolve one
pound Of salsoda in quart Of hot
water, and add It to the clear liquid
left after dissolving half a pound Of
chloride Of lime In two quarts Of
water. This must be tightly corked
and kept in dark place. Never use
II on anything but white clothes, for
1t will take out color from a fabric.
To whlten clothing, put two or three
tablespoonfuis Of the liquid into the
water In which the garments are to be
boiled.
