Wood Cutters
 May be Liable

Hereafter people who cut timber on the public domain without first acquir- ing permit, are trespassers and a. such are liable to prosecution. h. speaking of this matter yesterday s. M. Stoner, special timber agent said:
 "In the past people who were cut ting timber on the government lar were trespassers, but in view of the fact that there was no legal way by which they might acquire that tim Der, the government and it's agents were not disposed to act with severity, providing the one who did the cutting was disposed to do the right thing Now, however, in view of the fact that there are means available whereby one who so desires may procure timber of the public domain, those who may hereafter cut timber without first ac- quiring 8 permit will be liable to have the timber seized by the marshal and to proceedings under the law govern ing tresspass. ."-Tanana Tribune.

WHOLESALE SHAKING

Another of wholesale staking which shows the necessity of the abolition of the association claim and the right of stalking mining ground by power of attorney illustrated in Fairbanks last week when party numbering possibly half dozen filed location notices of 23 assocatio claims the Nenana river which territory mill wide and over six miles long.
 This is not by any the largest area of ground that has been saked and recorded at time sma recent happening of the kind In fact it is only short time since 28 miles of creek banketed by another party who spent nine days doing the work.
 These almost every week and the frequency of large numbers of locations growing greater witt alarming rapidity.
 The parties doing the stalking in way to blame. The law giving them the right is there, and the who thinks that he is paying creek and does not locate association claims is very hard to find. It is on human nature that should stake all he can if h. thinks he will be the gainer thereby, and all here for the sole purpose of Lettering their financial cond ons they not going to overlook any chances to ge into the millionaire class if they

What HanshaW
 Says of Quartz

Clarence M. Hamshaw, mining en- gineer who has just returned to the States from an extended visit in Alaska, when interviewed said:
 'The region passed through on the Tanana has quartz that will make it one of the richest in the country some day. The Bonnifield country is making the best showing for the reason that more miners, that is hard rock men, have gone in there. There can be no aues- tion that in the future these districts will be the mecca for hundreds of min- CTS looking for quartz.
 Tn these districts too. are great op- portunities for pig hydraulic mines. Old high river channels that have from POO to 400 feet of gravel carrying gold can be found for stretch of more tean 100 miles. don't mean to say that this ground has prospects, but there are colors in every foot of it, and with transportation to facilitate the equipment and working of these areas on big scale there certainly must follow the development into a very rich country of what is now a wilderness.
 In regard to the quartz. the work now going on will prove it's worth in several places. What is surprising to me is the number of surface showings made of free-milling ore of high grade. They are not stringers, and the forma- ton is one which makes the prospect worthy of the attention of miner and capitalist alike. Besides, I saw low grade specimens, ranging in value from SS to SIS, taken from croppings that will alone make the country rich if the prospects develop into mines. "- Seward Gateway.

 Wadas greatest claim to fame is the fact that he the first who brought the of the Fairbanks strike to Dawson from whence given to the world On his arrival in Dawson he spoke of the camp such glowing terms that stampede immediately started for the new diggngs.
 When the crowd arrived at Fairbanks they did not find the gold plentiful easy to get they had supposed they would and of the hotheaded inclined to do violence to the little who responsible for their taking what they supposed wild goose chase.
 Now after six years absence during which time the Tnana country has produced nearly $eO OO0 900 in gold the little is returning to the camp from which he virtually driven by few of the disgruntled
 Wada says it is great of satisfaction to find that the camp has turned out he thought would while he not benefited cent from the growth vindication of his reports s to him than rich mans would have been.
 To this little man. than to any other single per Fairbanks is due the rapid development of that city he the who carried the tdngs which resulted in the great influx of people, thus advancing it's growth least one year.
 Wadas return is much in the nature of triumph and it s only right that the people, who by their nasty judg ment prevented him rum gaining wealth which would have been his had he been allowed to remain should show him the honor and distinction to which he is due.
