 Some residents of Fairbanks have never paid any taxes at all, and many are one or two years ill ar rear. City councillors in partiCu lar should set an example and pay their taxes. It is not reasonable to expect private citizens to pay up if councillors themselves are negi gent in settling taxes for which they are responsible.

Burnett and zaChos Haze Run Into Rich Ore at CIeay Which is Nearly 50 Per Cent Lead and Contains I'D Ounces Qf Silver to ih9 Ton

i very rich discovery of eaiena, or silver lead ore, has been made on the property of Messrs l. r. Brunette and Frank ZachoW at the head Of Cleary
 An assay of this ore has just been completed, which proves it to be of exceptionally high quality, It is practically solid 2a'ena, containing So per cent lead and TO ounces of silver to the ton.
 Taking the price CT silver at 50 cents per ounce, this means a value oi So5 to the ton in silr-r alone.
 In addition to the silver values, the lead k described as being Q. such quality that, if any body Q. the ore can be found, smclters in Tacoma would probably be wiiliaa to pay premium OBI the ore which would be sufficient to cover the freight charges 'o that place from Fairbanks.

TIE INSPECTOR OF STEAM.
 BOATS

Considerable doubt having been expressed as to the eX- act legal status of persons run ming steamboats before the same have been inspected by the United States authorities, a Cit iZen representative called upon Deputy Marshal Charles with reference to the matter.
 It appears that when the mag nitude of the steamboat boom became apparent to the local authorities, a message was sent to the chief inspector at San Francisco acquainting him with the facts and asking for instruc- tiOns, and suggesting the ap- pointment of d temporary in locally.
 In reply the marshal's $ office was notified that it was impOssi- ble for an inspector to be here at the opening of navigation, but that one would arrive from Eagle at the earliest possible moment. Further it WAS stated that the suggestion to appoint a local inspector temporarily could not be entertained.
 Steamboatmen and others who contemplate going to the lower camp will therefore have to face the risks of prosecution for a violation of the statutes. The

It is understood that the new school board will make no radi- cal changes in the personnel of the teaching staff at the Fair banks public school. Miss Trim mer. Miss Glover and Miss Cam bern have resigned, but the other teachers will probably re main at their posts for the en- suing year.
 It has been decided to discon- tinue the kindergarten depart ment, so that it will only be nec- essary to appoint two new teachers.

PATENTS FOR PLACER AND LODE
 CLAIMS

According to section 5o of the United States land office regu- lations applicants for patent to a placer claim. who are also in possession of known vein or lode included therein, must state in their application that the placer includes such vein or lode. The published and posted notices must also include such statement If veins or lOdcs ly- ing within a placer location are owned by other parties, the fact should be distinctly stated in the application for patent, and in all the notices. But in all cases whether the lode is claimed or excluded, it must be surveyed and marked upon the plat; the field notes and plaj giving the area of the lode claim or claims and the area of the placer sep arately. It should be remem- bercd that an application which omits to include an application for a known vein or lode therein, must be construed as a conclu- sive declaration that the appli- cant has no right of possession to the vein or lode. Where there is no known lode or vein, the fact must appear by the affidavit of two or more witnesses.

MlaERG STRIKE AT ESTER

On Wednesday afternoon Con- radt & lesson and Edgar & Me Lean, operators on Ester creek. closed down as result of demand made upon them by the miners for an increase in wages to S6 per day, instead of the Ss day paid hither- to.
 The Ready Bullion company is already paying S6, bat the other operators claim that this IS because of the dangerous character of the work on that property.
 The operators who have closed down assert that their ground will not stand the extra charge, and they refuse to consider the demands Oi the men.
 Sluicing still continues, but it is expected that when this work is finished operations on several claims will cease unless some ar engagement can be made with the strikers

 The council met Ia~e night half an hour late.
 On the consideration of the re- ports of committees, Councillor Gordon explained what action had been taken on tHe in~.aIl&- ton of tiae aumme,ator>.
 He said tuat the committee had gone into the matter ,are- fully. and had ascertUncd tuat the cost of installing such d system as the one that had been suggested would amount to the sum O! >i". This amount would include tae supply of aH 1ater- ial necessary aHd every charge for an Installation Of auHuncia- tors taa would cover ten dis tricts.

 As it appeareI to the satis- faction of the council tl3t tine charge suggested was a roa~on- able one, 1t was decided to go ahead Hilh Eae installation without calling 1oe further sida.
 Councillor lm}.uan called at tentioE 10 some needed repairs to the public streets. and tAe committee was instructed to pro cyed with such repairs so long as the funds provided for that purpose lasted.
 Callahan then suggested tnat work on the streets should be paid for weekly. but after dis cussion it was decided that after the present month the system ot monthly payments should be continued.

 The council then proceeded to elect chief of police
 Councillor Rappolt moved that Mr. Conway be appointed chief of police at salary ot >250 per month. Callahan seconded, and the motion was carried unani- mouSly.
 J. E. Chovin was appointed patrolman at salary of S2JO per month.
 The city attorney explained the situation regarding deIin- quent taxpayers. He said that it was d difficult matter to get hold of all of them, but he would do what he could. With refer ence to money outstanding from firms who had been as sessed on their property outside the town limits. Alr. Dignan suggested that the council ac- cept the amounts tendered in each case, and let the question of the balance lie over until the test case of the Council Vs. Gardner had been disposed of. He believed that if that case were decided in favor of the council, there would be no diff fculty in collecting from the others.
 After discussion it was agreed that the city attorneys sugges- tion be acted upon. This will mean an addition of 5000 or 3,000 to the city funds.
