The FlndnCl6T Will say
The statement of the clearing house
banks issued Saturday was more In con-
formity with the known operations OF the
week than the previous exhibit. Taking
the actual condition as basis. specie and
legals decreased 1921. 800. due principally
to operations with the subtreasury. The
loan expansion amounted to $9,621,3OO,
which. in view Of the many bond Offer
ings, was not unusual. Deposits tncreas-
ed $685. 300, and the increased reserve
requirements on the heavier deposit line.
amounting to about 100000 coupled with
a nearly similar loss in cash, accounted Tor
a decrease Of $3,718.375 in reserve. The
surplus on all deposits now stands at
81 .726. 200, which is lower than the usual
seasons average. The statement based
ON averages makes the surplus reserve
s1O.OO6.75O, but the average does not
show the real condition OF the banks as
of Saturday. The operations described
with reference to the clearing house banks
held good in a measure with the trust
companies and outside state banks, these
institutions having reported an increase
of q little over 100000 In loans and
s1O. go 600 in deposits. In contrast with
the clearing house banks. however, the
trust companies gained nearly 100000
in cash during the week. The loans OF
the clearing house banks are again In
excess Of deposits, although the present
margin is very slight

AS 1 sequel to its article ori the Bonnitield country, the Citi- zen has obtained the following information relating to the Alas kan range from MT Paul Pol son, who has spent many years in that section. and Ea>; an un- bounded faith in it's possibilities.
 The Alaskan range lies to the south of Fairbanks, and stretches east and west for a distance of several hundred niles. The DOT tiOn to which this article more particularly relates lies about 70 miles from Fairbanks, and eX- tends from the' Delta to the hoadWaterS of the Wood river.
 The principal peaks in this re zion are those which can be seen from the ncighbcihood of Cush street, and are known reSpec- lively as Mt. Hayes and Mt. Deborah. Mt Hayes is shoulder shaped on it's west side, while Mt. Deborah lies farther west and can be distinguished by its nOrtlerly square face
 The base of the hills is cover ed with glacial wash.
 The Little Delta cuts through a deep gorge in the range, the sides of the gorge rising to d height of 800 feet above the river bed.
 The gravel beds as d rule con tain fine gold, and quartz Is dis tributcd over the district. Quartz prospecting so far has consisted merely of surface work in de cayed quartz, no drill work hay ing been done above Wood river with the exception of the Big Delta. Rut the quartz so far To- cated has been uniformly in true tiS>urp veins.
 Generally speaking the ores are base, that i4 to say all kinds of metals are found in conglOm eratiOn. They are mostly in de pOSitS and not in lodges. the de pOSitS being often many hun

.H|REL|NG AT WORK IN CAPITAL
Man of UnsatOry Repute in This Camp is Now Showing His Hand and Working for the DespOiIerS of Alaska al Wash ingtOn, D. C.

The character of Abe Spring is so well known in Fairbanks that it created no surprise when he be- trayed the interests ot Alaska at Washington last week
 All who have the misfortune to be acquainted with Abe Spring AknoW that he is capable of any
 dirty' work. Nothing is too low down too mean, too dishonorable, for this exCresenCe of humanity to per orm, ii thereby he can do a dis service to decent men, or aid those who are robbing the people of Al aska ot their righttul heritage.
 To find this embodiment of dis honor on the side Of the Guggen- helms, the Nor&au~, and the RothSchilds k sufficient of damn their cause in the eye~ of all right thinking men, and hat theN have to employ such man ? to aid them is proof of the dirty nature ot the work they have to put through. Alaskans who have the interests of this great land at heart rejoice that Abe spring Is against home rule. His very opposition lends strength to and aCCentuateS the WorthineSs of our cause. IL proves that home rule would make for righteous gov ernment Ill the interests Ot the peo- pie. His opposition and his mer- cenary alliance with the Guggen- helms. is the strongest proof yet adduced that underhand Iegisla- ton, subveroiye ot the public good, is contemplated ; that legislation which would never be tolerated if the people had a say in their own affairs is about to be introduced into congress. That alone is sui tiCient to account for this arch enemy of Alaska and its people be- coming the lick-spittle and willing tool oi the most selfish group of capitalists that were ever allowed to tasten their leCherous tentaCles upon the American people.

RICHES OF THE GREAT ALASKAN RANGE

dlpds of feet in width.
 Gold. silver, copper, lead, an- tinOny, nickel. bismuth and manganese can be found in pro fusion ali over the range. The northern slope is peculiar, differing from the rest of the range in that there has been less erosion, so the streams are SWifter.
 Enormous quantities of gold bearing graVel,,, ranging from a feW feet to 600 feet in thickness are to be found in the Alaskan range, similar in every particu- lar to the grayclS found in the Kantishna and the Bonnificld districts. Here is an enormonS field for hydrauIicing, as an Un- limited supply of water can be piped over the very tops of the gravel beds by natural gravity alone.
 There are also placer deposits in the range, some of which have been worked, but as yet no hole has been sunk to bed rock. The principal creeks for placer so far have been Iowa and por- tage, which give promise of be- coming large producers in the future. The gold is found in lay CTS throughout the gravels.
 There is plenty of timber for immediate use, and coal in abun- dance can be found in the dis trict. bhere is q Iinittess sup ply of water power When the working of tue quartz mines on Cleary makes large supplies of power necessary, the whole of this coal and wafer power can be obtained from the Alaskan range and the Bonnitield. \ short line of railroad to the district would cross two coal beds along the Little Delta.
 There is plenty of game in the Alaskan range Moose. caribou and mountain sheep may be found in plenty at all times,

MORGAN GETS 15 YEARS

The lon g-drawn-out Morgan case reached its final stage this morning. the scoundrel who had been cegvicted of attempted rape receiving the maximum sentence of IS years in the peniten- tiary. Long before the court convened crowds had gathered in the neighborhood of the court house and thronged the doors while sentence was being delivered. Universal satisfaction was expressed when it was known that Morgan had received the limit allowed by law, tenn pered only by the feeling that the prisoner was getting oil very easily for such abominable crime

Bears are fairly plentiful, the silver-tip grizzly being the most common, although the true bear k also found here. Berries are very plentiful in summer. Pike, grayiin@, pickerol and white fish are found in the streams and lakes upon the flats.
 The pest means of getting to the Alaskan range from Fair banks is via Little Delta, along the old government trail to the Midway cabin, l6 miles up the LitJle Delta. In summer horses are necessary for packing sup plies, and plenty Of good feed for stock can be obtained from tHp middle of June to the end of October.
 As tine district k, generally speaking, a quartz proposition, d goed outfit k necessary, and it would entail an expenditure ot ahoue %3, GOO to thoroughly equip two men for the season, although it might be done for less. This amount would include the cost of horses, etc.
 It will thus be seen that the Alaskan range holds out great possibilities to the man of energy and resource. It's wealth is ab- Solutely incalculabIe, and thouS- andS of men could be prOtitably employed in prospecting work alone. It's future is so certain and so brilliant that it is a mock cry to attempt to forecast it, but at present practically the whole district is open to any who care to step in and develop it's re sources, and its accessibility to Fairbanks makes it a far more inviting field than either the lditarOd, the KuSkOkWim or the KOyukuk,

The trouble is to keep pace with the demand for long lengths, rang ing from 2S to 42 feet.
